4.1 Cheeze Style

Cheeze fighting, or unorthodox fighting, is what it means to inflict damage and deny your opponent the chance to counter an attack. Cheeze is looked won upon by most RP Veterans, though it is highly liked by those who are new to RPing and do not quite understand the true nature of RPing. Cheeze is a style that depends on creativity, imagination and a touch of brutality. In short, the most effective Cheeze attacks are those that make the reader wince as he shares the victim’s pain. Cheeze is defined as: “On offense: inflicting amage on your opponent with a 100% hit rate, meaning any attack always hits; damage is determined by the attacker, not the defender; status effects may be automatically inflicted. On defense: healing and recovering from enemy onslaughts while they are occurring.”

4.2 Variations of Cheeze

There are many variations of Cheeze, each one a headache to remember. Hopefully, though, enough people will read this guide and use it to standardize somewhat the varying styles within a style. Most Cheezers use what is called True Cheeze, an oxymoron yet a descriptive title. This involves:

<blockquote>No killing until the end of the duel
Inflicting damage yet not making your opponent’s moves null and void
Not automatically healing to full strength
Not removing all status effects
Controlling your opponent to a degree</blockquote>

Below is an example of True Cheeze. Wiergraf is attack while Shinn Kuuro is defending:

<blockquote>Wiergraf grabbed Shin by the threat and squeezes, his iron viselike grip crushing his weak foe’s vertebrae into powder before slinging him onto the ground. With a quick motion, Wiergraf withdrew his fearsome blade and, snapping his wrist, buried the sharp sword into the skull of Shinn, skewering his brains and leaving him twitching on the ground. Blood was everywhere. The victim was in intense and agonizing pain.</blockquote>

That obviously has done a great deal of damage to Shinn....or has it? In this attack, Wiergraf completely brutalizes Shinn, breaking his neck and turning his head into a human shish-ka-bob. Below is Shinn’s counter:

<blockquote>Shinn gritted his teeth, the flames of pain eating away at every fiber in his body. With a trembling hand, he managed to grasp the invading weapon and yell as he jerked it from his head, a column of crimson blood spewing out of the wound. Quickly muttering a cure spell, Shinn is somewhat rejuvenated to where the gaping wound closed up enough to halt the flow of blood.</blockquote>

In this counter, Shinn further described his misery and healed himself. It must be noted that he didn’t entire heal his wound, but rather he merely gave himself enough strength to carry on. That is a crucial element to True Cheeze and it also brings up a Cheeze Sub-Style.

4.3 Hard Core Cheeze

Hard Core Cheeze is a style of Cheeze that causes battles to drag out with multi-post attacks and end only when one fighter gives up. It requires a great deal of endurance but it is not as testing on someone’s skill like True and Cheeze are. Hard Core Cheeze can be very, very annoying in battle. Hard Core, with a few slight variations amongst different fighters, is defined as: “killing your opponent, most of the time frequently in battle; automatically healing yourself fully, including resurrection; absorbing every attack; ignoring an attack; extensively controlling your opponent.”

Here is an example of a Hard Core Cheeze attack. Wiergraf is once again on the attack:

<blockquote>Wiergraf grabs Shinn by the arm and twists, shattering the fool’s limb into thousands of bone fragments. He then sweep-kicks his legs out from under him and slams him hard onto the granite ground, snapping several limbs and knocking the wind out of him. Wiergraf then, with a gleam in his eye and a smirk on his lips, smoothly swings his withdrawn blade downwards in a deadly arc. The razor-sharp sword cleanly bites into and cuts through Shinn’s neck, severing the head, blood gushing forth from dissected arteries. A last gasp of breath escapes from the severed windpipe, a crimson foam forming on the jagged edge as Shinn expiries.</blockquote>

Essentially, Wiergraf killed Shin by decapitating him. Now, Shinn will reply by finding some creative way of resurrecting himself and then killing Wiergraf, thus starting the cycle all oever again. This is why Hard Core Cheeze battles are annoying and will not be tolerated in a serious RP. This is a fun style for some to play around with, but in a serious duel, tournament or RP it is not acceptable. Below is one more example of a Hard Core Cheeze attack:

<blockquote>Wiergraf outstretches his hand towards Shinn and, with a snapping of his fingers, takes complete and utter control of Shinn. He mumbles a few words and grins as Shinn begins weeping like a little girl.</blockquote>

Not only is that embarrassing to you, but it can be embarrassing to all of *************.Com. This type of attack happens all the time in a Hard Core Cheeze RP, and only those who are in to goofing off in such a manner will like this fighting style.
