Let it be known that I, Wyvern 0m3g4, shall not stand by anyone else's side but my own and those who choose to follow me. I am not a leader by choice, as I am a better follower than a leader. But rather, I will lead my own faction out of necessity.

I do not side with the Templars, the assassins, Noodle's empire nor even my brother's chaotic legion. For none of these groups embody the ideals I keep close to my heart. I shall not kill, I shall not support a self-loving empire, I cannot comprehend the chaotic mind, and... I have no clue what makes a Templar beyond the whole "safeguards of the masses" thing, so to ensure I am not a personal enemy of the assassins, I shall stay away from Powerhouse's Templars.

Instead, I shall establish the first Ship of Fools school of martial arts. A dojo, if you will. Partly to help those who may need self-defense in this silly war you fools have started. Partly to help guide and discipline those who desire structure and direction in their life. Partly to pass on the knowledge and secrets of our fighting fore-fathers, and ensure our martial arts lives on in the future. And of course, partly to honor the great Fishman Karate practitioner, my uncle, Ricizubi. For it is he who inspired me to become a martial artist. And it is his spirit which will be honored in my dojo.

The name of this dojo? Western Way of the Wyvern School of Martial Arts and Self-Defense. Or simply "Wyvern Style" martial arts for short. This dojo shall incorporate and accept all other forms of martial arts into its own: Fishman Karate, Gavel Jutsu, Bigfoot Muay-Thai, Enchantment, Ichi Kenpo, Saiwanhitotsudo, Sexy Style, Symphonia and much more. And with these styles, we shall pass them onto our willing students to help them protect themselves and the "treasures" they hold closest to their hearts. I will instruct my students in the ways of self-discipline, moderation, mercy, patience, and other valuable virtues.

What do we "safeguard"? Given my principle of moderation, it should be no surprise that what I wish to protect isn't so easily explained. I too want to protect free will as the assassins do; and like the Templars, I also agree in defending the whole of humanity. In the end, we martial artists shall defend whatever we can. We will not overlook the entirety of humanity for the sake of free will, and neither will we abandon our free will to protect society. We shall find a way to reconcile the two, and protect both with our very own hands. In the meantime, we will keep these other factions from not only harming ourselves, but from needlessly throwing in innocent beings into this war as well. We shall also try and protect our home, the natural environment from which all life sprang, as well as continue to try and reach spiritual enlightenment and cleansing. We are warriors of the body, mind and soul. Not one aspect will be left untouched.

So in short... guess it's sort of like an odd mix of xiaolin warrior monks, Air Nomads and some other third thing. ...Oh, and One Piece.

Our guidelines, for those willing to follow in my footsteps:


 * 1) Thou Shall Not Kill (Unless You're Sufficiently Angry or if it's Really, Really Funny. Hey, We're Not Perfect, You Know.)
 * 2) Thou Shall Not Harm the Environment or Any Living Thing Within (Unless You're Showing Off a New Power or Fighting Technique, if You're Trying to Survive in the Wilderness, if You're Angry, or Again, if This is Meant for Humor's Sake. I will Admit, the Survival Thing is the Only Legit Reason, but C'mon. We Gotta Keep Our Sense of Humor Too.)
 * 3) If You Do Manage to Kill Someone or Destroy the Environment, Then You Must Clean Up After Your Mess (Perverting the Laws of Nature Through Means Such as Reviving the Dead is A-OK.)
 * 4) No Excessiveness in What You Do, Say or Think
 * 5) No Intolerance Towards Others; Be They Friend or Foe (Unless You're Angry at Them. Then You Should Poke Their Eyes Out, Break Their Spine and Whip Them Around By Their Own Entrails. Those Damned Bastards.)
 * 6) Forgiveness is Stronger Than Keeping a Grudge
 * 7) | KICK REASON TO THE CURB AND DO THE IMPOSSIBLE! ROW! ROW! FIGHT THE POWER!
 * 8) Accept Your Dislikes Alongside Your Likes
 * 9) Express Your Feelings in a Sane, Healthy Manner (No, Anger is NOT an Exception This Time.)
 * 10) Follow Your Own Sense of Justice, and Believe in Your Heart and Your Instincts
 * 11) Do Not Use Our Methods for Evil or Self-Gain. Only to Help Those in Need and For Self-Growth
 * 12) Do Not Talk About Fight Club
 * 13) You May Only Leave Our School if Granted Permission By Sensei Wyvern 0m3g4
 * 14) Individuality is Allowed. Do Not Restrict the Individuality of Other Students Unless Permitted

Breaking any of these rules, ESPECIALLY TALKING ABOUT THE FIGHT CLUB THAT IS NOT THERE will result in a certain punishment that will fit the severity of the situation, as well as being tailor made to the rule-breaker in question. Just pray you don't get offered as a virgin sacrifice to the volcano. Not fun.

So... yeah. I suppose I've said all that needs to be said. Good luck in your unnecessary war, my friends. I shall go into the mountains and continue to hone my craft. =_=
