(Okay so the new water-based character plays almost EXACTLY how I envisioned Riptide would.
Damn, this version of Ray might be cooked y'all. XD)

(I'M NOT DEAD I SWEAR
Just really bad at multitasking and also remembering to come on here. XD)
I missed you, friend (if that still applies after all that time that is )
(Of course, you'll always be a friend of mine~!
I'm really sorry for disappearing again! Life got a little busy!)
(Also, me not being as into Overwatch as I used to kinda contributed to me not being very active on here the past few years.
But! I want to try to revitalize this account, so I might just make it a multiversal Ray account~)
(Oh...that's Overwatch revealing a canon water-using character.
RIP Riptide. XD)
(One of the biggest changes I plan to make for this account is, it's no longer going to be a strictly Overwatch/Mortal Kombat RP account.
Instead, I plan to rework it into a multiversal one. I'll also likely stick to Ray as my sole muse, but maybe down the line, Matias, Conrad and Riley will get their own accounts.
I likely won't be doing any work on it anytime soon, but expect an account name change and a makeover soon!
OW and MK accounts are still as welcome as they've always been, though~!)
(...So guess who finally got back onto this account after forgetting his login info until now?)
(Long time, no post!
So...hi! Been a bit since I've been on here, huh?
I apologize for that. Things have just been kind of hectic for me lately, so I've had to put RP stuff on the backburner here. I do miss all my Overwatch and Mortal Kombat RP friends and I promise I'll jump back into writing with you all again!
That being said, I do have a bit of an announcement.
I'm planning out a massive rework of this account, as I'm planning to expand it from just an Overwatch RP account to a general multiversal account. That means making new art, updating things and getting used to writing in different verses. And that's all going to take a while to do.
So, I guess this is my way of saying that this account is on an official hiatus until 2024. I can't say when the hiatus will end, but it won't be anytime this year.
I'm looking forward to the new direction I plan to take this account and I hope you all will too~!)
(After being spoiled on a few things and realizing I have to rework MK!Ray a bit, I've thought things over and ended up in a completely different direction for him.
He's no longer all about balance between Chaos and Order.
He's still half-Seidan half-Chaosrealmer, but now he's a lovable Chaotic Good gremlin who fights on the side of good out of practicality and might have a few cannibalistic leanings.
Still smooching up on Syzoth, though~)
(I'm a little upset that I got spoiled on some MK1 stuff due to someone getting a little bit overzealous to talk to me about it.
Turns out I need to rethink 'new timeline' MK!Ray since some of my plans for him don't work.
I do have a good idea in mind, though!)
(Going to try to be on here regularly again soon!
Working on some art of OW Ray's updated look~)
Since I'm planning to write in the verse again soon, here's what I have for 'New Timeline' MK!Ray:
He's no longer an Earthrealmer, now being half-Seidan, half-Chaosrealmer, the product of a secret relationship between his father (Seidan) and mother (Chaosrealmer).
Because of this, he's not very openly-welcomed in Orderrealm and treated with outright hostility in Chaosrealm.
Not affiliated with the Lin Kuei, now acting on his own.
Still goes by Mantis, though it is now an affectionate nickname from his parents he took on, rather than a clan alias.
A firm believer of balance.
"Instilling absolute order will only lead to oppression. Letting chaos fully run rampant will only lead to destruction."
Still uses the double-bladed kusarigama. One end had a sleek, symmetrical 'orderly' appearance, the other end has a vicious, jagged 'chaotic' appearance. Each have unique properties as well.
Though he'll willingly work with the heroes, he's somewhat skeptical of Liu Kang's benevolence.
Because he is only half-Chaosrealmer, he isn't capable of the typical self-mutilation but can flex and contort his body to some degree.
His 'main' ship is with Reptile, the two bonding over their shared outcast background.
Also has ship potential with Havik and/or Hotaru. Maybe the new Kuai Liang (Scorpion) as like a 'love transcends timelines' thing.
A few more details I thought up.
Ray's fighting style revolves around swapping between three different stances: Order Stance, Chaos Stance and Balance Stance.
By default, he fights in Balance Stance, making use of both sides of his kusarigama in equal measure.
In Order Stance, he sheaths the 'Chaos' end of his kusarigama to make full use of the 'Order' side. While in Order Stance, his attacks are quick and calculated, easily flowing into each other. Only needing to focus on using one blade, Ray is able to put his focus on being more strategic with his movements.
In Chaos Stance, Ray's Chaosrealmer blood overtakes him, the quiet young man becoming raving and ruthless. Stabbing the 'Order' end of his kusarigama into his body as his way of sheathing it, he makes sole use of the 'Chaos' side, his attacks becoming a bit uncoordinated but much more vicious.
(OH DEAR LORD THE BOTS HAVE LEARNED HOW TO SEND ASKS)
(Also, heads-up!
Since I'll be turning this into a shared Overwatch and Mortal Kombat verse blog, I'll be changing my @ name soon!)
(Reading through my old archived Mortal Kombat RP blog and man, I can't wait to write in that verse again~)
