Roll To Dodge / Re: Medieval Fodder Simple-RTD! (v1.0) BATTLE HAS BEGUN! We need more fresh corpses!
« on: December 06, 2012, 07:46:05 am »
The rain intensified, as if Mother Earth was weeping on her dying children.
Shouting commands and insults was hard in the noise of clashing metal and thunders above, and thus, only Warren Gates, who was close to Commander Axe, heard him - Warren's heart filling up with hope and courage.
With a roar, Mason Govier charged at one of his enemies; that someone turned out to be Dr.Strange-Love. Exchange of easily parried blows commenced, until the moment in which Mason's axe cut deep into Dr.Strange-Love's left arm. He flinched and took few steps backwards, getting himself away from the fearsome axemaster.
In the same time, Athel von Scriver was locked in a fight with Berry Smiles. His axe against her sword, power against finesse. It was evident that the two were tough opponents, and in the end, none of them scored a wound on the other.
Suddenly, there was a wet thunk; a headless body slumped to the ground, it's owner was Warren Gates, blood gushing from the open neck. His head bounced and rolled away, and soon got lost between other corpses - there goes Axe's support for the youth. Hamm celebrated his fifth kill with a wide, almost perverse, grin.
Then two duels that progressed similarily and similarily have ended. Here we have Tim XVII and Hamm, and nearby, Berry Smiles and Hurr Durr. The two pairs danced gracefully with each other, accompanied by Hurr Durr's loud hurrs and durrs. Ultimately, though, neither of the four have managed to even scratch their respective enemies.
It was only when Berry Smiles went into offensive that she managed to knock Hurr Durr from rhythm; the axeman had problems maneuvering through her elegant strikes and jabs, and at one moment, her blade sunk into his armor and through it, into his flesh, wounding him, but rather lightly this time.
Two commanders locked in a fight; Athel von Scriver against Axe. Their axes swung mercilessly, only to swoosh in the air when the opponent would move away. At one time, however, Athel misstepped on the muddy ground and felt pain in his left arm - it was Axe's axe that sunk into his shoulder, cutting through the armor for the first time.
Next moment and another duel commenced; BETA ALPH charged at Hamm, slayer of five of his comrades. The still fresh and fast BETA surprised his opponent with the powerful strikes and skillful dodges. Suddenly, Hamm have miscalculated his move and the last thing that he saw was BETA's battleaxe coming down at his head - he didn't saw or heard when the blade slammed into his head, cutting it apart almost until neck. Then, Hamm's body quietly slumped to the ground.
Visibly angered, Athel von Scriver rushed at young adversary that tried to circle his group. Athel's axe was locked in melee with Dr.Strange-Love's two-handed sword. The youth was wounded and was too clumsy, and this was his undoing: with a quiet crunch, commander's axe slammed into Dr's chest, cutting open his lung and heart. Gasping for air, and then, choking on blood, Dr.Strange-Love fell dead amongst his former comrades.
The battle continues without him.
Vendetta steps forward!
This part of battlefield looks slightly less clustered, both sides lacking numbers.
