PyroMan found a good spot to stake out, then watched the door vigilantly for any dinosaur-like people, figuring they couldn't be too hard to spot. The woman named Armor greeted the guests cordially one after another, pointing them to various exhibits and trying to get them spread around. By their appearances, they seemed to be armor enthusiasts like the curator herself. It was hard to imagine so many people being so enthusiastic over net-crafted armors, but then again, everyone needs a hobby.
Just when the navi was beginning to think that nobody dinosaur looking was going to show up, two navis that each vaguely fit the description walked in. One was a large man with a somewhat dragon-like appearance... It was possible Armor had gotten the dinosaur part wrong, but could she really have mistaken the gender? The other was a woman who, rather than being a dinosaur, was simply dressed (rather provocatively) in dinosaur-like accessories, including a helmet designed like a raptor's cranium. That seemed to be about all of the guests... how was he supposed to decide what to do? Should he go ahead and confront them or should he ask questions first? Spending too much time questioning could allow the crook to nab what she wanted and take off, however...
The large man stood to talk to Armor, while the other woman walked further inside and began examining some of the more minor exhibits. As soon as she'd finished talking to the man, the curator cast a smile to PyroMan, then took off out the door. Perhaps she'd already spotted the thief she'd mentioned?

"You see them, Kasai?"
"Yeah. They seem reptilian enough for me. Go check them out."
Pyroman circled around to the main entrance, in an attempt to blend in as much as anyone on fire can. Pyroman realized how much he stuck out, and decided to hide in plain sight. He approached the two individuals.
"Hey, how's it goin'? I'm Pyroman. Hey, you mind if hang out with you guys while we go through the exhibit? This stuff looks really neat!"
Kasai threw his face into his hand.

The dragon man turned to face Pyroman, but the other girl went on going towards the right side exhibit. "It's good to see that you have a healthy interest in ancient armors, young navi. The curator's terrific collection deserves more enthusiasm than it often receives. Too often do navis these days neglect the ancient treasures of the net for the simple conveniences offered to modern netbattlers," the dragon man answered with a toothy grin, stroking his long beard. "How thoughtless of me! I've yet to introduce myself. I am FeilongMan; I am here, as you are I assume, to survey the curator's fine collection."
While the dragon seemed like a nice guy and all, he was sort of distracting PyroMan from the issue at hand. The raptor girl was already brazenly looking over one of the emptier exhibits, grabbing one item and then putting it back uncertainly. She seemed indecisive and unprofessional at thievery, but it was a long stretch to imagine that she was at the exhibit for any purpose other than theft. Unfortunately, FeilongMan wasn't making it terribly easy to disengage conversation. "You may guess simply from looking at me, but eastern armors have always been my favorite. The western world never had warriors that so valued doing honor to the sacred fields of battle, and thus went in with the shabbiest, function-oriented designs. They may have been winning on the land, but they certainly must lack the favor of the heavens," he snorted, shaking his head in disapproval at a navi couple fawning over an iron Netopian battle suit.

"Wow, you like oriental armor too? I've always found artifacts from the west to be too chaste. Say, what does your friend want to see here?"
Kasai was actually impressed by how believable Pyroman was for a navi who just spewed an utter load of crap. Kasai was into art, Pyroman was into conflagration. Kasai was also amazed at how Pyroman's attempt to reasociate with the suspect. He just hoped that Pyroman's temperature wasn't causing F'eilongman an discomfort.

"Hoho! A man with good tastes. I could go on talking about eastern wars and armors forever... Many don't see the western/eastern distinction in net culture, but it still exists quite prominently," FeilongMan chuckled, stroking his beard with a contemplative look on his long, reptilian face.
As PyroMan changed the subject, the dragon turned his head curiously, looking for anyone who could be described as "his friend." Nobody really came to his attention. Looking back, he raised one of his thick eyebrows curiously. "I'm here alone, I'm afraid. Who are you speaking of?" he asked his acquaintance, seeming confused.
The navi in the background picked up a large breastplate and began heading for the door with raptor-like speed. The time for being distracted was over! PyroMan had to ask himself, though, whether it was fine to engage her here or whether he ought to take it outside.

"Oh, sorry. You were walking rather close to that dinosaur navi on your way in here, and I assumed you were coming together. I wonder what she's here to see? Let's introduce ourselves!"

"Introductions can wait! That hoodlum is intending to steal one of the finest breastplates in this collection!" FeilongMan snuffed, heading after her with amazing speed. The raptor-dressed woman turned back, surprised to see anyone keeping up with her, before she was tackled to the ground just outside of the exhibit (FeilongMan had probably intentionally done this to keep from making a ruckus and disrupting event proceedings). Quickly, he grabbed up the armor and began dusting it meticulously. "That cretin nearly damaged a priceless artifact! I'll go return it to its proper place and calm the guests. You deal with her!"
The girl made a click with her tongue, rising back up to her feet and shaking her shaggy brown hair furiously. She grabbed back up the raptor skull and replaced it atop her head with a swift motion, resupplying the creepy shadow over her eyes. She looked tough, but apparently she hadn't been counting on anyone as fast or powerful as the dragon being there to stop her. Growling with a feral tone in her voice, the scale-clad girl stomped her feet angrily and bared her claws; her yellow eyes gleamed in the daylight. "So what if I didn't get the armor? I'm gettin' paid just for the distraction! So long as I'm gettin' paid, I might as well have some fun on the side!"[color=green][/color] she laughed, tensing her body. In the blink of an eye, her scaled armor grew over her body and her face elongated; her joints reversed and her leg length grew, until suddenly, she had adopted the form of a raptor. "I'll blow off some steam rippin' the fire out of you!"[color=green][/color] the creature snarled.
PyroMan had no idea where Armor was now, and FeilongMan and the other guests couldn't see him; he figured his only options now were to retreat for help, thus disrupting the event, or fight the creature himself. He knew she was fast, but had no real clue as to how powerful she was.

"You wanna burn? Bring it on, hag!" Pyroman's first tactic was to heat up the battle. The dinosaur was bound to get angry. His first move was to arm the PyroWall. Then, he snapped his fingers, igniting the ground under the raptor navi.
Summary:
1) Activate Shield.
2) Charge attack (space under enemy) [10]

((Before I can mod you, you'll need to get your post together to meet some basic standards. Because various factors of your roleplay are dependent upon your post quality, I'd suggest putting in a little more effort to that aspect. Additionally, you'll need to post a turn summary. There's no formal way that you have to do your summary, but I'd suggest something like this:
1) Cannon [40]
2) Move away
3) Dodge
As you can see, whenever you list an attack, you should give some cursory information to help the mod along with the calculations (accuracy/element/etc. can also be listed for greater benefit to the moderator). If you're not clear on this action system, you probably need to go read over the rules again.
If you have any questions, please PM me.))

((You still aren't using one action. Would you like to modify your post so that you are? Note that there are no auto-dodges; if you want a dodge to work, you have to RP it and list it in your summary.
Also, using a charge shot requires two actions of charging. It's not very recommendable for now, since you still have a low level buster, but if you still want to, it's fine. Just remember that you'd have to use two actions to charge first.))

"Kasai, send me my ass-whooping shoes!"
"Do you have any idea how many chips we actually have?"
"Well, I need SOMETHING."
"Fine."
Pyroman recieved one chip. Grimacing, his armed turned into a block, forest-green gun. He fired one shot at the raptor navi, then leapt to the side.
Summary:
1) Activate Shield
2) Cannon [40]*
3) Dodge
*I think Cannon gets knockback, too.

The raptor ran at PyroMan with its claws bared; its rage seemed to grow at being called a hag. "Shut up! You can't understand the sleek appeal of the earth's greatest forerunners!"[color=green][/color] she snapped back, defending the beauty of dinosaurs. With a loud growl, she burst through the pyrowall as soon as the navi set it up.
With a toothy, reptilian grin spread across its face, she proceeded to rip her claws into PyroMan. She got one hit in, then slammed him against the ground. As she went in for another, however, he fired his cannon, then got up from the ground and moved to one side, dodging another pounce. The fast pace of the navi was making it very hard to keep up.
PyroMan thought he heard noise in the distance. It could be unrelated, or it could mean that Armor was returning. Either way, he'd have to hold out a little while longer.

Kasai was getting nervous. Pyroman was dealing damage at the same rate he was taking it. Then, he got an idea.
"Pyroman, if she's faster than you, we'll just have to try for something a little closer."
"I hope you know what you're doing, buddy...."
Pyroman's unease dissolved when he say the chip Kasai had sent. Smiling, he put his hand behind his back. A set of wicked talons materialised from his fingers. Then, he fired a couple of buster shots with his other hand to bait the raptor navi into charging.
Summary:
1) Fire buster.
2) RageClaw1 [100]

((1: You didn't use all three of your actions
2: Rageclaw1 does 40 damage, not 100.
3: You didn't list your buster damage
4: Though you are only facing 1 enemy right now, you may want to get in the habit of listing your target(s) in your turn summary. [for example: Cannon: Raptor Navi (40dmg Null + Knockback)]
Try taking a look at some of the other battle threads, so you can see how others post and learn from them))
