A: Roost Fighter is the first fan fiction of it's kind to combine both a fighting game and a message board. It is the standard by which all Rodan's Roost-related fan material should be judged by. Combining humor, violence, and the spirit of Rodan's Roost, Roost Fighter has succeeded where none of its successors have. Roost Fighter also gave way to the Crimson Battlefield, an RR-exclusive online RPG fighting game, and Roostville, an entire "community" of the Roostafarians and the several misadventures that occur.
Q: So just what are you trying to achieve with RF here?
A: For now, Roost Fighter is treading along the path that may one day lead me to superstardom. Where all of my other stories have failed, this is the crown jewel. I hope that one day, future generations of Rodan's Roost will look upon this story and take note the time, effort, and heart I have put into making an epic, successful fan fiction. They may at first be confused, but I can understand that.
Q: What is next after Roost Fighter?
A: After the first story, I will write Roost Fighter 2, which I promise to be an improvement over the original. It will take all the makings of Roost Fighter and reconstruct them into something more entertaining.
Roost Fighter Alpha will take place after that. This round robin was created by Matthew Alexander Gardiner, and hopefully that too will enhance the fanbase.
Q: Is it safe to assume you're insane?
A: Indeed it is.
A: You just asked me one of the tougher questions to answer, but I'll try. The reasoning I have is that Clint always had this power within him, and the fireball "woke it up".
Still not satisfied by that answer? Tough. You can form your own explanation, then.
Q: How did Ubergeek survive being electrocuted?
A: No one knows how exactly he survived it and instead was mutated. Perhaps I was on drugs when I wrote that.
Q: Could I survive being electrocuted?
A: No.
Q: Why don't the chicks dig Bruce? I mean, he looks cool and all...
A: Because he's a geek. In fact, he perfectly qualifies for being a guest geek on Beat The Geeks. Watch for him sometime on that show.
Q: Shouldn't Dracois be 22 in this fic and not 12?
A: He should have been...if not for something I call "The K Experiment". What is this experiment? Here's the story:
In 2003, Japanese scientists found a cure to old age - a combination of a special drug, and a mysterious shower of lasers that only these scientists know about. That same year, this was brought over to America, and became very popular. There was only one major side effect - the procedure had a 90% chance that your intelligence would be brought down to only what you would know at the particular age you were shrunk down to. People didn't care too much about that...and neither did a select group of kids hailing from Rodan's Roost.
Dracois, Baragon2003, Black Libra, and Hekate all agreed to undergo this operation. It worked perfectly for Baragon, BL, and Hekate - but when Dracois went under, the machine malfunctioned and turned the poor guy into a 1-year-old. Our favorite Spammerite was screwed, but he grew up and is now a healthy 12-year-old by 2013.
Q: Why didn't Blight die when he chomped on the electric wiring of the computer?
A: Who knows? I might have been on drugs when I wrote that too.
Q: What happened to Spydrmanjr's cat? And where can I buy that kind of cat?
A: Well, I should be able to answer this at least. Spydee's cat, after munching on nutritious, chain-smoking punks, transformed into one helluva slick panther. You don't see him often in the series, but he's there.
As to where to buy this type of cat...try Wal-Mart.
Q: How did Gamzilla manage to break a boulder with a stupid pen, when he couldn't do it with his sword?
A: Easy. The pen is mightier than the sword...
Q: Why does Brett swear so much?
A: I'll have Brett answer this one...
"Screw you, f*cker." *puts up middle finger*
Q: What happened to EarthBaragon after he trashed the monkey bars?
A: He was taken into the office and a phone call went to his mother.
Q: What the hell is Middle-Earth doing in Roost Fighter?
A: It appears to be doing a backstroke, sir.
Q: How the hell did Brandon recover such fatal wounds just by meditating?
A: I was doing drugs at the time, and it seemed like a good idea....
Q: Why is Bruce so mean to Dracois?
A: When someone calls you a moron (even though you're a geek), it's best to get some payback before the opposition dies...
Q: What was Bruce thinking when he was drunk?
A: He was thinking he might have been able to spy on one of the Roost girls as they undressed (mucho booty..*drools*). He swears he's innocent, but we don't believe him.
Q: What's that cult that attacks the fighters on the plane and on the road?
A: They are called "The Minions of the Dark One". They consist of various Roost-haters and collaborate with Clint to ensure the demise of all Roosters.
Q: What da dillio wit SpaceGamera goin' on is own? And why teams of 3?
A: Because going on his own sure beats the hell out of collaborating with Dracois. Teams of 3 because, well, you form your own explanation.
Q: Where can I buy that pair of pink shorts Tomzilla had?
A: Wal-Mart.
Q: Only pansies surrender when puked upon! So why did Tommy give up the fight after that happened?
A: If one is puketh on once, then he shall expecteth to be puketh upon a second time. It is in one's best interest to avoideth this situation.
Q: Why's Gamzilla so angry at Bruce?
A: Why not?
Q: Why is everyone crashing their vehicles?! I must know now!
A: It's called severe brain damage. All guys have this.
Q: Is Gamzilla overreacting when he imagines being nailed in the hejeebees with knives and grenades?
A: No.
Q: Why's Rick such a good fighter?
A: Why are you such a lousy fighter?
Q: Funny how Blight spared Rick no mercy, but yet surrendered to Gamzilla. Is the pain of having a sword stabbed through your hand really that bad?
A: Let's see. I'll try it on you, let me know how it feels.
Q: Why's Godzilla sparing Osaka Castle and all?
A: Because he feels no need to trash an innocent structure. He only attacks ones that have people in them, and at that point no one was. So Goji just left it be.
q: why all the psykolojikal mubojubo, yu given mee hedayk AAAAAAGGGHHHH!!!!
A: ....and that headache is really apparent now. Seriously, though, it's in there because all must know the true feelings of mercy, compassion, consequence of action, and having your head ripped apart by wild pigs.
Q: Why motor-tricycles and not, say, motorcycles?
A: Give me a reason why not.
Q: Why's Gam so good at devising tactics for others?
A: This is due to many years of training, dedication, and getting his ass kicked by hippies. He's seen the best martial artists getting trashed by others, and so this has led him to perfectly devise battle tactics for his comrades.
Q: How the BLOODY F*CK did Gam block a grenade?!
A: This is mostly due to luck, but see the question before for more info.
Q: How the hell did Jimi survive having a grenade blown up in his hand?
A: You take these things way too seriously, don't you? Seriously, though, the most likely explanation is the one of Jimi himself...
"I tossed the grenade at MV's head, bastard that he is."
And so you have it.
Q: How is one set on fire and live to tell about it, even without any protective gear?
A: Bruce claims that he's mastered the flame, whatever the hell that means. Brett says this too, but we don't believe him either. Most likely, either they're telling the truth and HAVE mastered the flame, or you just take things way too seriously, buddy.
Q: How does one survive being punched in the head a 1000 times by flaming fists?
A...Shut up.
Q: Where did those ropes come from? Who sent them down?
A: The ropes were electronically attached to the castle preceding the tournament. They are tightly screwed to the wall, and are designed to actually pull up when someone reaches the end of the rope, bringing the fighter fully to their destination.
