Posts from Knights of Tezoth

Good plan, let's do that. Count and heal if the next hit is the "last one."

And where there's a first fight, there's a second one...

– No time for boredom, ladies and gentlemen. This is only the beginning! – Rezara continued to proclaim to the wide audience. – Behold the duel between milady Alsira Vecchi d'Arcrede and Sir Zedil Mox! Unbridled Violence challenges the Moon Shadow! Who will prevail? The skill and traditions of Revnland's assassins, or the icy flower of Olivus? One thing can be said with certainty: the opponents are worthy of each other! Milady Alsira's mighty abilities force Sir Zedil to operate at the very limit of his capabilities! But is stealth and a strike in the night truly reliable when dealing with the Moon Shadow? Alas, Sir Zedil is defeated. That was an unusual fight! Both knights performed admirably! Tezoth can be proud of its sons and daughters!

The similar crimson-and-white appearance endeared milady Alsira in Rezara's eyes. The fearsome killers from Revnland, who struck terror into all regions of Tezoth, were not held in high regard in Swordgard. All of them are troublemakers and traitors. Nothing less.

OK. Let's get started...

Go, while the internet hasn't been cut off yet

Ambrose, having quickly donned his armor, personally checks before heading out to the lists that his horse is properly saddled and shod. The mute animal, though it cannot know what games of prestige and vanity lie hidden behind the facade of a festive tournament, senses its master's agitation and nervously glances around, pawing the ground with its hoof.
-- Once more, old friend, we are in the fray together, though death
Today's clash does not promise us. Let us be
Swift and fierce, and the lady's glory
We shall multiply in this tournament.
I know your fierce temper, but do not trample, should we win,
The fair face of our opponent. Save your fury
For the knight of the bogs, who sits astride
A foul creature with eight legs.
Thus does the master exhort Mordred. Before the start of the first bout, he greets his opponent with a nod before lowering his visor — during the feast she had left a most favorable impression upon him.
-- They shall meet in the dance of battle, son of the earth, daughter of the sky,
The weight of armor with the lightness of garments,
And mighty Mordred, the black, heavy steed,
With snow-white Zephyr in swiftness
Shall vie. Let the clash be worthy
In spirit and pleasing to the eye
Of the worthy lords who gaze upon us

Round 1, battle 3.
Milord Ambrose Turbon V vs. Milady Stephanie Valentine

The Turbon family ring increases Ambrose's damage: 85->127.

Ambrose moves 12 up.
Stephanie moves 4 left, shoots the horse.
The horse takes (crit) 160 damage (40/200).
Ambrose moves 5 left, 5 up, attacks the pegasus, misses.
Stephanie moves 1 down, 11 right, shoots the horse, misses.
Ambrose moves 10 right, attacks the pegasus, misses.
Stephanie moves 12 down, shoots the horse.
The horse takes 80 damage (-40/200). It is out of the fight...

Ambrose, with his 6 melee SP, is left only to "catch arrows" from the archer, who shoots him down while flying "in circles" for 100500 rounds...

Milady Stephanie Valentine wins.

It seems that the main goal of the tournament is one: to show players that their faithful steeds will die first.

Mold?

Plague?

Well, there weren't really any other options there. Breaking through Ambrose's armor takes too long, so it comes down to who gets "dismounted" first. Neira just got luckier...

Shall we begin?

Hang on, I'll write up a post.

With the start of the tournament, Alaria reluctantly set aside her writing implements to observe the knights from other regions. After all, today she was to face them on the lists, in both competitions at once. And it was worth knowing what they were capable of — it's hard to predict what the future holds for Tezoth and who might turn out to be the next opponent.

When her turn came, Catharsis, more than ready for battle, did not keep her waiting. Joy, clad head to toe in steel, looked like a formidable opponent in every sense. Perhaps even too formidable for her title. But the Tanarsian had no intention of underestimating her rival.

— Let us see, my lady, whose steel proves stronger.

Round 1, battle 4.
Milady Nelia Vesta vs Milady Alaria Doran

Nelia 6 up.

(if such scripts are possible)

Alaria will move towards Nelie but in such a way that the chance of the first strike remains with her.

Won't work. You're equal in SP, and Nelia has higher initiative. No matter how you slice it, she'll strike first...

Well, that's what I thought. Then let we close in. I won't use abilities for now. I'll see based on the situation.
