LBOS enters the Animal Arena with a Gladius.
A turkey is released.


LBOS 100 | Turkey 300


(-10) GOBBLE-GOBBLE-GOBBLE! LBOS does not see it coming, but he does move out of the way in time.
(-5) Brandishing the sharp edge of his gladius, he makes a slice for it. It is small and fast. He misses and falls on top of it in a kind of hug. There is feathers and chaos. The robust muscles armored in bragadoshis feathers writhe and pull like a snake. A dinosaurian neck rises and releases a flurry of exploratory pecks to his helmet and right shoulder, as if studying LBOS' anatomy. (-10)


LBOS 85 | Turkey 290


LBOS gives up on trying to take the turkey alive and goes for the kill. LBOS raises its gladius and slashes at the turkey thrice.
1 (priority 12vs163)

(-10) GOBBLE-GOBBLE-GOBBLE

The turkey scratches at LBOS's chest and gets free. (-10) Somehow in the commotion the gladius has been knocked away.

(+5) LBOS doesn't see his sword. He finds it right behind him.

LBOS 80 | Turkey 280

Elra and Burt enter the arena with real weapons this time. After a respectable nod there it is...gobblegobblegobble...they step back-to-back and peer off as in opposite directions as the shadow mouth of the animal pens are opened.

They look in opposite directions but see the same thing. Silver tiny eyes of rage.

Burt 100 | Elra 100 | Turkey-A 300 | Turkey-B 300

(Elra has chosen a move, she may change it. Still need Burt's)

BEFORE the match truly starts, if you would like to retroactively create a stance you may do so now. This is the only way to improve Amateur techniques.

Put up to 3 skills into it and give it a name. More can be added later.

(Can you give a sample stance? For reference on what one would look like?)

If I had a skill that was a Dodge. I might create a stance called Evasive Stance.

If I had two skills that used the same weapon, I might name the stance after it.

The point is, Amateur skills are just going to stay Amateur and not give bonuses until they are part of a Stance. Gameplay wise 3 feels like enough ways to get bonuses to rolls. Or to RP it you have to go into the fight with the mindset to use it, and the proper footing to take most advantage.

(Ok, Elra’s skill is taking a one handed weapon in her non dominant hand. I am unsure what to call the stance, Improvisational Vigilance?
Thought process for the name is that she is focused on figuring out which items can be used as improvised weapons)

Retreat.
As in, exit? Or gain some tactical distance?


Elra action? (Improvisational Vigilance Stance set as current.)
