Rystil
[SBLOCK]“Go ahead and feel free to batter me black and blue if you can Catullus, I’m not above learning a lesson or two.”[/SBLOCK]

[SBLOCK]*Tiberius makes a few abbreviated thrusts towards Catullus’ head before trying to land a straight thrust to his abdomen.*

(OOC:

Tiberius's Attack Natural 1 + 4 = 5, Possible Fumble
Fumble Roll 10 + 0 = 10, Not a Fumble

[SBLOCK]*Tiberius swings his sword in a wild feint, while striking to subdue with his shield instead.*[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=Tiberius]
*Tiberius's shield attack misses its mark, as Catullus comes in from the side again, penetrating Tiberius's defenses with the nonlethal strike of his blade, striking hard and fast.*

"Yield?"

(OOC:

Tiberius's Shield Bash 13 + 3 = 16, Miss.

Catullus's Practise Sword 15 + 7 = 22, Hit.
Tiberius takes 22 Damage!

[unleashed]

Tiberius Lucius Magnus, Male Praetor Warmage

Rystil
[SBLOCK]“Yes, I yield...you certainly don’t fight with any Praetorian style I know of Catullus.”[/SBLOCK]

 

[Rystil Arden]

[SBLOCK=Tiberius]
"Yes, I pride myself on that. I picked up a bit of the Rowaini style of fighting, and I practised it with my beautiful fiancee. I think it helps to keep my opponents on their toes. I can do the Praetorian style too, of course, but I figured it would make for a more useful sparring match this way."

Rystil
[SBLOCK]“Well it certainly was a lesson if nothing else,” Tiberius grins.

OOC: Were you applying some sort of penalty to the sparring weapons?[/SBLOCK]
