Capt Sneggle: Hey Lethal Lady
Capt Sneggle: ::down the steps to the bar for a ale and
then turns around to look at mostly a lot of empty tables,
seats, and rings::
DUEL Dioxane C: ::She therefore, shows up, flipping on
the lights as she goes about preparing for the coming
tournement.:: Evening, Lorance.
Capt Sneggle: Life treating you good?
DUEL Dioxane C: No serious complaints, as of yet.
::looking down at her notes and crossing a name off the
list of participants::
kalindaacheron: [she entered, fur cloak wrapped tightly
about her shoulders, her hair bound tightly in a tail]
Capt Sneggle: ::nods:: I hear there is a tournament for
those not yet Warlords in the annex tonight, you
officiating?
kelatheskelicia: :: follows in behind Kalinda, and
towards a table, shrugging out of her knee length
jacket, and laying it across a chair, before taking a
seat::
DUEL Dioxane C: Yes. I am the organizer of this
tournement. However, it is taking place here in the
Arena, not the Annex.
Capt Sneggle: ::nods:: That's good
DUEL Dioxane C: I had no wish to interfere further with
Fight Night.
Capt Sneggle: Well, good luck to you and those fighting.
DUEL Dioxane C: Indeed.
Capt Sneggle has left the room.
DUEL Dioxane C: ::looking over the clipboard and
nodding to Kalinda and Kelathe.::Evening.
Rena A Cronin has entered the room.
kelatheskelicia: Evening! I'm here for the Talon of
Redwin... ::chuckles::
DUEL Dioxane C: Of course you are. Name, please?
kelatheskelicia: Kelathe, at your service.
DUEL Dioxane C: Are you, now? Right then. You're listed
as the third seed, tentatively, depending on the arrivals
of the two higher.
kalindaacheron: Good evening. [she sat and nodded]
DUEL Dioxane C: ::returning the nod to Kalinda::Evening.
kalindaacheron: Are you collecting names for this event?
DUEL Dioxane C: As long as the names are for entrants
in the tourney, then yes, I'm collecting them. Only a
temporary collection, I will not keep them after.
kalindaacheron: [she smiled] I am Kalinda Acheron.
DUEL Dioxane C: Right then. You're second seed. This
won't change unless Rabmallet fails to show.::nodding
and marking her clipboard.::
Kyra Von Jessup has entered the room.
Rena A Cronin has left the room.
kalindaacheron: [she nodded, and signalled the serving
staff for her wine]
DUEL Dioxane C: If any are interested, Brigath has
already bowed out. So that's one less to fret about.
DUEL Dioxane C: Fifteen minutes for the rest to show.
Likely give some leeway for stragglers, of course.
kalindaacheron: I see. [she laid a pair of nobles upon the
tray of the serving lad who brought her wine] Therefore,
Rabmallet tentatively has the first . . .bye, is it?
DUEL Dioxane C: Tentatively. Yes. Unless, of course, he
fails to show, and no one else enters. Then the bye
won't happen 'til later. Course, that also depends on
the stragglers, etc.
DUEL Dioxane C: These things happen.
kalindaacheron: I understand.
kalindaacheron: [she raised the glass to her lips, waiting
patiently]
Kyra Von Jessup: ::steps inside, looking about before heading
down the stairs and moving to an empty table. Once there, a

around the room. A nod to the caller::

to Kyra:: Are you an entrant?
Kyra Von Jessup: I'm debating..I still have time, right?
TroyCstello: ::nudgs open the door with a shoulder,
self-consciously straightening out his T-shirt::
DUEL Dioxane C: Indeed.::A single nod.::
DUEL Dioxane C: ::glancing towards Troy now, she
nods.::
TroyCstello: Wow. Awesome turnout.
DUEL Dioxane C: There is still time.
kelatheskelicia: :: turns towards the new person
entering, and raises an eyebrow::

TroyCstello: That I am.
DUEL Dioxane C: Name, please?
TroyCstello: Troy Costello.

DUEL Dioxane C: Seventh seed until such time as others

nods once.:: Entrant. are you?
K Tarkenstone: Yes, if I understand you correctly.
DUEL Dioxane C: Name, please?
K Tarkenstone: Kelten Tarkenstone.
DUEL Dioxane C: Sixth seed, unless other entrants fail to
show.
K Tarkenstone: ::finds a place to wait::
TroyCstello: (Hm. Mebbe someone should scan the
Annex and tell any mistaken peeps it's in here?)
K Tarkenstone: Oh, I can't wait to see if I bud into a pretty
flower or a thorny vine.
K Tarkenstone: ::snorts::
kalindaacheron: [she calmly sat, nursing her wine, waiting
patiently]
DUEL Dioxane C: ::stony expression at his words.:: How
witty.
AnjolieQuinn has entered the room.
K Tarkenstone: Maybe I'll just petrify.
Lutzartemus has entered the room.
DUEL Dioxane C: Are you that scared?
kelatheskelicia: Or maybe some bird or squirrel will
gobble you up.
TroyCstello: Where exactly do you equate a seed with
turning into stone?
K Tarkenstone: Ha. No, I'm stone.
AnjolieQuinn: ::The femme was downing a glass of pure white
wine as she sauntered quickly down the steps into the basement
arena. Tonight's ensemble of 3 tiered palazzo pants of olive
green, tight off the shoulder peasant top of cream cotton,
AnjolieQuinn: and thick brown leather belt with holsters was an
unusual turn for the femme. Something very sensible rather than
the usual picks.::
K Tarkenstone: ::grins at Troy:: Well, if someone was
waiting on me to burst into flower, they'd be waiting long
enough for me to petrify.
Kyra Von Jessup: ::a glance to the caller::Sign me up..I have
nothing to lose.
DUEL Dioxane C: Very well. Eighth seed, for the moment.
kalindaacheron: [she looked up, nodding briefly to Quinn,
content to remain in her cloak for the nonce]
DUEL Dioxane C: Name, please?
Kyra Von Jessup: Kyra Jessup.
AnjolieQuinn: ::Violet peepers took their usual gander around the
crowd at those gathered and Anjolie Quinn tossed her things
onto the nearest table.::
DUEL Dioxane C: Right then.
Lutzartemus: :;Appears::
TroyCstello: ...Right on then. ::slowly meandering towards
the bar for his traditional Sam Adams::
DUEL Dioxane C: ::glancing towards Anjolie:: Name,
please?
K Tarkenstone: ::grabs a weighted training blade and
moves to a practice area::
AnjolieQuinn: ::A very polite nod was given to Kalinda. The
femme had cooled down considerably since the last time they
spoke.:: "Anjolie Quinn."
DUEL Dioxane C: Fourth seed for the moment. ::Nodding
in response, writing it down::
RabMallet has entered the room.
RabMallet: ::trudges in::
Lutzartemus: ::glances around on his way to the bar::
TroyCstello: Man, you're just gonna tire yourself out. It's a
tourney. ::noting the man with the weighted blade::
AnjolieQuinn: "Thank you..." ::She turned upon heel to take a
seat at her table. Hands wrapped around the sai as she
examined them and tried to take deep breaths.::
DUEL Dioxane C: ::nodding to Rabmallet and Lutz:: Your
names, please?
K Tarkenstone: I'm warming up.
Lutzartemus: Artemus Kurgen.
DUEL Dioxane C: I don't have you listed.::To Artemus::
Are you entering?
RabMallet: ::grins;: hullo. I'm Rab. That's Artemus Kurgen.
::points::
Geffen Siewelt has entered the room.
kalindaacheron: [she smiled almost imperceptably,
remembering said encounter was less than pleasant]
Lutzartemus: Late yes.
DUEL Dioxane C: Very good. Ninth seed.
RabMallet: Yer name's Diox?
DUEL Dioxane C: Rab. First seed.
DUEL Dioxane C: Dioxane.
RabMallet: Dioxany?
DUEL Dioxane C: Dioxane.::Dryly::
RabMallet: ::grins:: sorry. pleasure to meet yeh.
RabMallet: ::finds a seat and wrangles a pear from his
pocket::
DUEL Dioxane C: Pleasure.
AnjolieQuinn: "Artemus.... since when are you not a Warlord?"
::A curious smirk on her face.::
RabMallet: ew. no warlords 'llowed in here.
Lutzartemus: ::grins:: Wrong brother Anjolie.
Lutzartemus: Yer thinkin of Sylus.
AnjolieQuinn: "Until last week I didn't even know you were
brothers."
Lutzartemus: I'm a lowly Master at Arms.
RabMallet: ::chomps on the pear::
RabMallet: anyone want a pear? I got a couple more.
::waves pear around::
DUEL Dioxane C: Well then. We're waiting on Geffen.
AnjolieQuinn: "As am I... it's not that lowly, is it?" ::Rolling him a
wink as she ordered up another glass of wine.::
Kyra Von Jessup: ::she sits back in her chair, shrugging out of
the dark jacket. Underneath, a pale blue t-shirt tucked into
ordinary jeans::
Geffen Siewelt: ::The Arena door opened as if on cue to reveal
the man stepping in.::
K Tarkenstone: Food? ::stops practicing for the moment::
RabMallet: aye.
RabMallet: ::nods:: good'n too.
K Tarkenstone: Hey, you're that Rab fellow, aren't you?
DUEL Dioxane C: ::Looking up to the new arrival, nodding
to him.:: Name?
Lutzartemus: ::chuckles:: Not that low, but not that high
either.
RabMallet: Rab. yep.
K Tarkenstone: You were in the magic tournament too.
RabMallet: ::laughs;: well, barely.
AnjolieQuinn: "Agreed." ::Receiving her drink as she leaned
back in the chair and silently prayed for some friends to show
up.::
RabMallet: how'd yeh do?
RabMallet: take home a goblin and a prize?
K Tarkenstone: You knocked me out of the tournament,
remember?
RabMallet: ::blinks:: er.
K Tarkenstone: I at least got a goblin.
Geffen Siewelt: I am Geffen. ::Already free of his suit coat.::
RabMallet: sorry, there. it's all me mallet's fault. I've no
control over it at all with that Magiking bit.
AnjolieQuinn: ::Violet eyes took on shades of gray at the name
floating across the air. Quinn remembered the fellow from a
"business" entanglement she's seen him discussing with her
beau.::
DUEL Dioxane C: Very good. All confirmed entrants have
arrived. You were moved up to 5th seed, as Brigath
had bowed out of this tournement.
RabMallet: ::eyes his mallet warily::
RabMallet: no Brigath? ah. alas!
K Tarkenstone: ::laughs:: That's okay. I was relying on a
rather seedy looking wand, anyway.
RabMallet: ::nods:: always a next time...
DUEL Dioxane C: Quite unfortunate, indeed.::taking a
moment to write a few things down.::
RabMallet: I went nowhere in the second goblin tourney.
so who's to know.
RabMallet: ::chomp::
RabMallet: thankee for settin up the tourney, Dioxane.
Tasslehofl Momus has entered the room.
DUEL Dioxane C: Wasn't much to do about it. Quite
simple.
RabMallet: well, yeh got us here.
DUEL Dioxane C: I know, I'm too kind, of course.
DUEL Dioxane C: Four minutes and I'll start it up.
Lutzartemus: ::yawns::
RabMallet: ::chompslurp::
K Tarkenstone: Four minutes? I'd best go relieve myself
before someone punctures me.
DUEL Dioxane C: Three now.
Geffen Siewelt: ::Orders a brandy with the idle time.::
TroyCstello: ::gingerly sips at his bottle, the frigid glass
chilling his lips::
AnjolieQuinn: ::Finishes off her second glass of wine with a
glance over to Artemus.:: "Would you care for a drink, dearie?
On me."
Lutzartemus: ::grins:: I don't take body shots from women
who are spoken for. ::winks:: But if you're buyin, I'll have
a beer. :;heads that way::
AnjolieQuinn: ::Contralto voice rings in chuckles. The femme
nodded at the serving lad to get the gentleman's order.::
"Technically... I'm not entirely spoken for, Art."

silent]

Elijah Solariss: ::enters queitly down the stairs from the Inn
above::

around the room::
Tasslehofl Momus has left the room.
K Tarkenstone: You get that mallet fixed, Rab?
Duel Tass has entered the room.
DUEL Dioxane C: All right then. Time to get underway.
RabMallet: ::raises eyebrow:: well it works fer hammerin,
but every now and then it gets some weird Magiking
going and I have to go that Isle...
JohnathanHavoick: ::Follows on the heels of the last to enter.
He bumps the door with a shoulder and strolls down the stairs.::
DUEL Dioxane C: With even numbers, there will be no
byes for the first round. Listen for your opponent and
caller. ::acknowledging Tasslehofl, who arrives soon::
RabMallet: get it out of its system. I think it's
faerie-cursed.
Lutzartemus: ::takes a drink of his beer::
TroyCstello: That sounds like a sexual problem.
RabMallet: ::thnks:: er. nope.
RabMallet: jest the mallet.
DUEL Dioxane C: Remember, this is a single elimination
tournement.
kalindaacheron: [she stood, leaving her wine half full, and
unclasped her cloak, draping it across her chair]
K Tarkenstone: Much like any battle.
Elijah Solariss: ::moves over by the rings as he looks at
the contestants gathered::
kalindaacheron: [her attire this evening a one-piece outfit,
consisting of two wide white straps front and back, from
shoulder to crotch, accompanied by sandals]
Gunthor the Bolg has left the room.
RabMallet: ::scratches his bald head and squints around
the room:: guess all the folks I used to see are all
warlordies now...
AnjolieQuinn: ::Suddenly in a bad mood again.::
DUEL Dioxane C: With Tass. Rabmallet vs. Elijah Solaris,
Kelathe vs. Kyra, and Geffen vs. Kelten.
JohnathanHavoick: ::He caught sight of Quinn as he weaved
through the crowd. Dodging the occasional serving lad on his
way.::
DUEL Dioxane C: With me. Kalinda vs Artemus, and
Anjolie vs Troy.
Duel Tass: (please wait till I IM you)
K Tarkenstone: ::hikes it to the ring::
RabMallet: ::stands and looks for Tass::
Lutzartemus: :;As he waited for his opponent to be
named, the green rodes covering his frame slowly
changed into black chainmail, with black half-plate
breeches and calf-high black leather boots:: Lets do
this...
kelatheskelicia: ((Sorry!))
DUEL Dioxane C: ((Same with me, please. :) ))
kalindaacheron: [she moved towards the rings, bowing
formally upon entering]
Elijah Solariss: ::he moves over to a ring by Tass, nods to
Rab before entering, and then slips between the ropes::
AnjolieQuinn: ::The femme rose from her chair, finished off her
wine, and took hold of her sai in each hand.::
Kyra Von Jessup: ::standing, she grabbed the sword she had
uncovered and moved to a ring. Bowing to Tass then Kelanthe::
RabMallet: ::shrugs and follows him into the ring::
RabMallet: ::extends hand:: hullo. Rab.
kalindaacheron: [she touched the crossed staves tattoo
upon her shoulder, the iron-shod staff coalescing into
existence in her grasp]
Lutzartemus: ::Strolls silently into a ring, a golden pronged
trident appearing in his hand::
Elijah Solariss: ::takes the hand and shakes:: Elijah.
K Tarkenstone: ::unsheaths a rather substantial
broadsword::
kelatheskelicia: :: heads towards the ring, and nods to
Tass, and her opponent, taking a relaxed position,
but studying her very carefully:
RabMallet: well met. here we go.
TroyCstello: ::Casts a side-glance towards Quinn, then
Artemus, then Kalinda...then he looked at his own taut
but plain workout slacks and his cutoff T-shirt::
RabMallet: ::swings the mallet up to his shoulder::
K Tarkenstone: ::looks around:: So who's this Geffen
person?
Lutzartemus: Good Luck, Kalinda. ::nods to the lass and
readies::
kelatheskelicia: :: her rather simple black shirt, and
black jeans, so neh::
Elijah Solariss: Aye, g'luck to ye. ::readies his own
weapon::
kalindaacheron: And to you, Art. [she winked]
Geffen Siewelt: ::He paused upon reaching the rings. Watching
them all fill he took note of the one with only one fighter.:: You
must be Kelten.
Duel Tass: ::he looked to those in the rings, and nodded::
AnjolieQuinn: ::Anjolie saw only two people she didn't
recognize. One of them was looking for Geffen and the other
seemed to be on his own. As such the femme started
sauntering very slowly towards the fellow. She had not yet
noticed her beau's
AnjolieQuinn: presence.::
TroyCstello: ::Then, with a gallic shrug, he hoisted up his
familiar longsabre, fingering the hilt as he hopped into
the ring::
K Tarkenstone: That's me. You're Geffen?
Geffen Siewelt: ::Steps into the ring and draws the rapier.:: That
is correct.
K Tarkenstone: ::offers Geffen a sword salute::
K Tarkenstone: ::grins at the blade:: Good thing I went
before the duel.
AnjolieQuinn: ::Violet peepers were concentrating on that
longsabre and then glanced down to the sai she held. A
somewhat timid voice spoken up.:: "Troy?" ::Eyeing the man.::
TroyCstello: ::Emerald gaze flickered towards the woman
that seemed to be his opponent, awaiting her entrance
in the ring:: Yeah?
K Tarkenstone: I just really hate dueling fencers.
Duel Tass: One, 1: Rab starts it off, cutting the stepping
Elijah high for first point (1-0)
AnjolieQuinn: ::Saunters into the ring slowly. The femme gave
him a bow of her head.:: "I'm Quinn... nice to meet you."
JohnathanHavoick: Give'em hell, babe! ::Signals his location at
the bar with a wave.::
RabMallet: ::brings the mallet down onto noggin::
RabMallet: ::whomp::
Duel Tass: Two, 1: Kyra takes the cut low, but finds
Kelathe's circ parry there to steal the advantage (.5-0)
K Tarkenstone: Sure, they can stick you, but nothing quite
takes off a limb like a good broadsword.
TroyCstello: Troy Costello. ::his congenial smile hidden by
a cant of his head::
kelatheskelicia: :: suddenly, a dagger appears in her
right hand, and she's there to block the incoming
cut::
AnjolieQuinn: ::Quinn's heart skipped a beat as she heard the
voice of her beau. She turned and waved to him before taking
on a battle-ready stance and starting to study her new
opponent.::
Duel Tass: Three, 1: Geffen steps as well, and is, too,
brained by Kelten's high cut (1-0)
Kyra Von Jessup: ::Swings low but got blocked. A step back::
K Tarkenstone: ::throws a wicked cut at Gef's shoulder::
RabMallet: ::spins the mallet head and shuffles his feet a
bit::
Geffen Siewelt: ::His steps lead him directly into harms way.::
AnjolieQuinn: "You're in Team Dueling League, right? I think
that's where I know the name from." ::Violet peepers watching
him like a hawk.::
kalindaacheron: [she began walking a slow circuit around
the perimeter of the ring, her eyes upon Art]
Elijah Solariss: ::his initial dodge failed as he gets hit right
off::
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring KalArt: Kalinda swings down low,
and attacks, but is foiled by Artemus' defensive
manuevering. ((CP/LC)) .5-0 Artemus.
TroyCstello: Since season 518, I think...
kalindaacheron: [she dashed in, aiming for the legs, but
was thwarted]
Duel Tass: One, 2: Rab turns a fancy circ, and watches as
Elijah just drops into a stop hit.. naught this round (1-0)
Lutzartemus: ::At the incoming attack, he stabbed
downward and pinned her weapon between two prongs
of the trident::
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring QuiTro: There is no scoring in this
round, for both duelists opted for the high attack.
((HC/HC))
RabMallet: ::swirls the mallet shaft around to stop the
strike that doesn't come::
Duel Tass: Two, 2: Kelathe and Kyra both get bloody as
they dual thrust to pick up a point each (1.5-1)
kelatheskelicia: :: gives her the ol' what for, this time
a dagger appearing in her left hand::
Duel Tass: Three, 2: Geffen gets a point this time, tripping
up the stepping Kelten (1-1)
AnjolieQuinn: ::The sai met up with the longsabre and the femme
gave him a smile.:: "Was thinkin' that's where I knew it from."
K Tarkenstone: ::zigs when he should have zagged::
Elijah Solariss: ::he braces for another hit which does not
follow::
Geffen Siewelt: ::Returns the favor with a slice at the thigh.::
K Tarkenstone: At least with that blade, I don't have to
worry about losing any limbs.
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring KalArt: Moving defensively,
Kalinda ducks low enough to gain a good, solid view of
the blow about to strike her. ((LC/DU)) 1.5-0 Artemus.
TroyCstello: It pays good. ::having followed the line
between her gaze and the muscular youth outside the
ring, the subtle expressions there making his heart sink
just a little. The base of his longsabre got inches from
her shoulder before by t

the path of his assault]
TroyCstello: the sai::
Duel Tass: One, 3: Rab and Elijah decide to make up for
that last round, and both cut, Rab low and Elijah high
(2-1)
RabMallet: ::laughs::
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring QuiTro: Meanwhile, both duelists
perform defenses of their own, Troy, however, is
enough to gain an advantage in his position. ((SS/CP))
.5-0 Troy.
Lutzartemus: ::Knocks her back::
Duel Tass: Two, 3: Kelathe and Kyra, however, get
naught for their dual low cuts (1.5-1)
RabMallet: ::swings into the shins and gets it in the head::
Duel Tass: Three, 3: Geffen's circ parry only serves to fan
off the stop hitting Kelten (1-1)
AnjolieQuinn: "My... beau... he's in TDL from time to time."
::Going on the defensive as her opponent then stepped around
her for the advantage.::
Kyra Von Jessup: ::Aims for the legs but mets a dager instead::
Kyra Von Jessup: meets
TroyCstello: It's funny. The team that paid me the most
signed me before I proved a damn thing. ::stepping
around the sai::
kelatheskelicia: :: tries to duck and roll, catching her
opponent in the legs, but heres the distinct weapon
on weapon noise that means she was not successful::
Elijah Solariss: ::is able to finally draw blood upon his
opponent but is forced to trade some of his own to do
it::
TroyCstello: ::Consciously avoiding beau talk::
K Tarkenstone: ::drops back, waiting for Gef to drive in::
K Tarkenstone: Didn't fall for that one, huh?
AnjolieQuinn: "Must've had quite a bit o' faith in ya."
Geffen Siewelt: No, but you should be worried about your
internal organs. ::He spoke calmly while protecting his legs.::
AnjolieQuinn: ::The femme went back to watching him carefully.::
RabMallet: ::grins as he backs away again::
DUEL Dioxane C: ::Taking the momentary respite to
observe the patrons and other matches, and listen to
conversation.::
RabMallet: ::heaves the mallet up::
K Tarkenstone: I am. That's why I relieved myself before
this thing started.
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring KalArt: Kalinda strikes out low,
taking the feet out of the fanicly dancing Artemus.
((FSS/LC)) 1.5-1 Artemus.
Lutzartemus: Hey Rab!! ::calls from his ring to the other
ring, then is tripped::
RabMallet: ::distracted:: eh. yeh? watch yerself there...
TroyCstello: A guy named Daelin ran the team...really
huge guy, brown hair....but this old, obnoxious French
guy really owned the team. We won the Cup, and he
gave us this enormous bonus.
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring QuiTro: While here, we shall
comment that everyone is aggressive and scores!
((TH/TH)) 1.5-1 Troy.
K Tarkenstone: I just hope you cleaned that thing since the
last time you skewered someone.
kalindaacheron: [she stood, spinning her staff to upset his
footing]
Lutzartemus: I need to hire a carpenter...know any? ::gets
up::
Duel Tass: One, 4: Elijah's low cut sends the stepping
Rab face first to the sands (2-2)
Duel Tass: Two, 4: Kelathe and Kyra compare lat parries
this time (1.5-1)
RabMallet: ::steps aside and is dropped to the floor::
Duel Tass: Trhee, 4: Geffen sends in the low cut, and gets
skewered by Kelten's thrust (2-1)
AnjolieQuinn: ::The femme was more than captivated in the
conversation and thought it best to take this time to administer
some puncture wounds along her opponents abdomen. He
seemed to have gotten the same idea.::
RabMallet: later, there, Mr. Artemus...
TroyCstello: ::Gets a little closer than he needs to with the
longsabre, hence the sai stab::
Elijah Solariss: ::reverses his cut and is able to connect on
the lower part of his opponent and is pleasently
surprised he comes out of the exchange unscathed::
RabMallet: ::gets back to his feet::
Lutzartemus: :;grins::
K Tarkenstone: ::demonstrates how a broadsword can be
used to thrust too::
RabMallet: but I'm yer man. yeh....
RabMallet: ::nods to Elijah:: right ho, then.
kelatheskelicia: :: parries high, expecting a cut to
come::
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring KalArt: A break in action, both
are seeking attacks where none are to be found.
((DU/SS)) 1.5-1 Artemus.
kalindaacheron: [she edged further to the side, seeking a
way past the trident]
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring QuiTro: We continue our abuse of
the combatants in this ring, as they assault each other
once more. ((HC/LC)) 2.5-2 Troy.
Lutzartemus: :;feints a thrust::
AnjolieQuinn: ::The sai left six lines across his shoulders as the
femme then winced and felt the sabre's sting along her ankles.::
Geffen Siewelt: ::Extends again for the cut, but this time he's
caught squarely.::
K Tarkenstone: Don't worry. I clean and oil this blade
every night.
Duel Tass: One, 5: Rab takes the advantage as he ducks
under Elijah's lat parri (2.5-2)
RabMallet: ::stoops:: spot yer knickers, there...
Duel Tass: Two, 5: Kelathe thrusts in, tired of the waiting
game, and finds Kyra stealing the advantage with the
circ parry (1.5-1.5)
kelatheskelicia: :: goes for the punchline, but the joke
ain't that funny::
TroyCstello: ::The blade raked along the muscular slope
of his shoulder, leaving a sextet of fissures in the cloth.

Duel Tass: Blood, 5: We have a revisit to round two, Troy

Kyra an adv for stepping around Troy's second slash
(4-3.5)

Marzan DeBurgo: we can drag E along, we will all end up
in jail, but it will be worth it
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring KelArt: Was there wisdom in this
approach? I believe so. However, it serves no useful
purpose when it is caught and turned aside by the
waiting riposte. ((SL/SH)) 5-3 Artemus.
Marzan DeBurgo: ::claps::
K Tarkenstone: ::goes with an all-or-nothing move, and

DUEL Dioxane C: Ring RabArt: Everyone, as I spoke
earlier, loves a bloodbath. I, personally love reckless
endangerment of my own well being. But as I can not
take part in the duels at the moment, I will live
vicariously through those whom I call
DUEL Dioxane C: for. ((HC/LC)) 2.5-1.5 Artemus.

Elijah Solariss: Remember what happened to me when
you and I traded late, Rab? Don't let it happen to you!
Elijah Solariss: ::naturally wants the guy who beat him to
win it all now since its like a pride thing and all::

the rules became. ::chuckles and readies:: Lets end this
with a bloody flouris..
RabMallet: sorry. wot?
RabMallet: ::spins mallet head::
Elijah Solariss: ::sips his whiskey:: (s) man people around
here are just fricking nuts.

Lutzartemus: ::blacksheep?::
Elijah Solariss: ::wonders if Marzan needs medication or
to be taken off his current prescription::
Marzan DeBurgo: ::ya::

DUEL Dioxane C: ::Raising a brow as she oversees the
matches, listening to the goings on.::
Lutzartemus: Lets end this with a big show...::grins
wickedly, hefting the trident for a charge::
Elijah Solariss: ::is glad he didn't have to face the dude
with the trident, has no idea how he deal with that in a
duel::
DUEL Dioxane C: Ring RabArt: No show here, unless you
count Artemus' ballet styled moves. ((FSS/SH)) 4 all.
RabMallet: ::laughs::
Lutzartemus: ::Dodges off to the side at the last moment
laughing as well::

Elijah Solariss: ::nods having been in a similar situation
with Rab, watches how he executes his tactics some
more against Artemus's strategy, curiously::
Lutzartemus: Luck be a lady, seven come eleven gonna
make it mine...Luck be a lady and lay it on the bottom

be kinda Marz/Dalamar-ish
Marzan DeBurgo: ::giggles::
Marzan DeBurgo: ::sips his whiskey::
Elijah Solariss: ::that sounded good till the man giggled,
than it sounded really wrong::
Marzan DeBurgo: ::laughs::
