says to +Gaia.of.the.jungles: *A small smile glides across my lips and I set a pace of a mere two feet away from you, the 6 ft temwood spear in my hands held diagonally before my chest... my right hand with the sharp speartip held up, the tip moving past my right shoulder... my left hand is down, holding the butt end downwards, ending past my left hip somewhere.. There is a panga on my left hip and a sleen knife strapped onto my right thigh... dark hair falls in soft waves around my frame and I quickly tie it back with a bit of leather... One step takes my right foot back, my left foot forward, body angled a bit, my knees bent, gaze taking you in as I rest on the balls of my feet, ready to go..*

I think you should clarify the size of your the length of your spear/blade. The panga should also be clarified. Is it sheathed? The way you wrote it, it is a hazard to your mobility. Unrealistic - 1

What is your hand spacing? Unclear -1

How big are you? What do you weigh? Theser are likely to factor in determining the realism of your movements. You need to let your opponant know who has the size or weight advantage. Unclear -1

You didn't declare any clothing. If you try to use protective clothing as a defense, it will be a deduction.

says to Amiet Zina Blackston: my small five foot form is about 10 feet away from you....... my spear is held horizontally in front of my body...... my hands are centered and spaced about eighteen inches apart...... the right end of the spear is sharp and bladed and pointed to my right...... the left end is blunt and to my left...... my feet are shoulderwidth apart and I bounce on my knees with my 118lb form.... I watched what you were doing as I bent my elbows so that I had some movement to work with......a sleen knife hangs sheathed on my left hip..... the only thing I wear is a loin cloth that flutters slightly between my thighs..... with a deep breath I await your attack....

You cannot simply correct the distance from her 2 paces to your 10 feet, you have to actually move. Unrealistic -1

At least you give your weight, but surely you can see the difference between 5'1, 118 and 5'6" 118. Unrealistic -1.

I can't think bare tits can be an advantage, especially since I recall that your character is supposed to pretty well endowed.

says to +Gaia.of.the.jungles: *Seeing you increase the distance, I.. 1. close the distance, coming into striking distance once again, leading into you with my right foot.. 2. my right hand brings the spear down and in towards your left shoulder in a quick motion, hoping to slice into the shoulder and slow it and you down. 3.my left hand then comes out swinging the butt end of the spear in aiming to connect to your right hip 4. my left hand then takes the butt end of the spear down from your right hip in a small arc to try and smack into your right knee.. 5. my right hand then takes the tip end of the spear down from it's upwards position rolling my right hand down, left hand up to aim the speartip for your left wrist, hoping to get inside your guard and disable that wrist... my spear now pretty much level to the ground about upper chest level*

1. Clean. 2. Clean. 3. Clean.

4. You didnn't make your hand position clear in your stance. If your left hand is turned up, your can't make this movement, and I can't assume your left hand is turned palm dowwards. Unclear -1.

5. Clean

says to Amiet Zina Blackston: watching as you close the distance I see you come at me with the right bladed end of your spear.....1>quickly I raise my left blunt end up to parry your shot up wards and away from my shoulder saving that part of my shoulder and by raising that part of my spear the right bladed end went low and saved my hip from being caught by the hip shot with your blunt end........I feel the wood reverberate of the spears connecting......growling loudly as my right knee gets thwacked I groan and try and shake it off......2..... quickly I lower my left blunt end of the spear feeling it catch your spear and just miss my left wrist.......3> With a bit of a growl I swing my right bladed end of the spear in low at an arch from my right to my left aiming below your spears guard and just above your left knee cap hoping to make a nice slice there......4> I then swing my blunt left end of the spear in high hard and fast from my left to my right at a wide arch aiming above your spears hopefully lowered right guard and for your outer right shoulder hoping to hit it hard enough to loosen your grip on the spear......5> with some effort I then swing my right bladed end back in from right to left but at an upward angle above your left guard aiming for your left elbow hoping to make you howl.....

Time violation -1. Ineligible for agression bonus.

1. No way. You make one adjustment of your spear to stop two attacks, miraculously alligning it at the proper angle to parry sequential attacks.. Unrealistic -1.

2. How does your spear contact with hers to parry it away? Does it deflect the spear above or below your wrist? Unclear -1.

3. Clean

4. I think your spear would have to cross hers at some point, not just magically get above it. Unclear -1.

5. "back in from right to left." Whose perspective. Unclear -1

Aggression bonus to Aimet.

Aimet -3 + (5-1) + 1 = 2

says to +Gaia.of.the.jungles: * As your spear comes for my left knee, I feel it slice over the fatty part of the knee... grimacing, I 1. raise my right hand upwards to connect with your spear as it aims for my right shoulder, feeling the spears collide but saving my shoulder from a nasty gash... 2. I pull my left arm back and the blunt end of the spear upwards to intercept your spear and stop the cut to my left elbow... 3. I swing my right hand down then, the tip of the spear aiming for the inside of your left knee, hoping to slice into it..4. I then draw both hands upwards, the spear leveling out as it screams for just under your chin, hoping to knock you silly for a bit... and 5. my right hand goes down and left upwards as I arc the spear tip for your left thigh to leave a nice gash down along it...*

Time violation -1. Ineligible for agression bonus.

In OC, you're through, but in a spar it's just a deduction. You would be unable to stand. You cannot simply minimize the damage from an attack without doing something. Besides, I don't know of any fatty part above the front of the knee. Unrealistic -1. So, although the pain might be dulled by shock, I can't allow you much further use of this leg.

1. The way your word it, you bring your HAND into contact with her spear. Ouch! Unrealistic -1.

2. The way your word it, this is two actions. Back and up. This puts you over the action limit and makes you ineligible to receive the agression bonus. Too many actions -1.

4. I don't see you being to hit the INSIDE of her knee with your long spear. Unrealistic -1.

5. The way it's worded, this is a forcepost, because of "to leave nice gash...." Forcepost -1.

says to Amiet Zina Blackston: Quickly I 1> bring my spears left blunt end up and in from my left to right parrying your shot at slicing my left knee upward.......2>With swiftness I bring the center portion of my spear upwards to block the chin shot....my spear becoming horizontal as I parry the shot for my chin upwards and just barely away from my face......... growling loudly as I feel the blade cut into my left thigh blood starting to run down my leg........wincing in pain I 3> quickly send the right bladed end of my spear around from left to right at a high arch this time aiming the right bladed end for your left cheek wanting to leave a nasty gash and make you feel pain hopefully being above your spears left guard.....4>I then quickly send in my right knee towards your crotch hoping to throw you off by not using my spear and raising my knee with quickness hoping to hit you between the legs and make you double over......5> stepping back down with my right foot I back up about 4 paces and position my spear as it was in my original stance......

1. The way it's worded, this is two actions, up and in. This puts you over the action limit and makes you ineligible to receive the agression bonus. Too many actions -1.

2. No way. Her spear is moving upwards, and yours is supposed to be moving upwards faster, to parry her spear upwards? Why would it not then strike it's intended target, if you only strike it in the direction it is already moving. Unrealistic -1.

3. This would be disabling in OC, to eat this kind of wound. So, although the pain might be dulled by shock, I can't allow you much further use of this leg. Unrealistic -1.

4. This would be hindered by the wounded leg. Unrealistic -1.

5. This would be hindered by the wounded leg. Unrealistic -1.

says to +Gaia.of.the.jungles: 1. The left blunt end of my spear is tilted up from my last attack to you and I catch my spear against your, parrying the blow to the left side of my face just in time.. In such close quarters it's hard to see the knee coming from my private part... and just in time I see the motion and pivot on the balls of both feet to throw my right side against you, feeling the knee hit my right hip instead... groaning in pain... 3. I turn towards you again and quickly close the distance... 4. My right hand leads the tip of my spear into your right shoulder to slice into it... 5..immediately I drop into a crouch and my right leg comes out and around as I drop down, trying to sweep your feet from under you and send you to the ground...*

1. Clean. 2. Clean.

3. Turning and closing are two actions. This puts you over the action limit and makes you ineligible to receive the agression bonus. Too many actions -1.

4. Another force post. Say "attempting to slice into it." Forcepost -1.

5. I'd allow the combo if you were on two good legs. Unrealistic -1.

says to Amiet Zina Blackston: with my spear back in its horizontal position I see you run at me with your spears bladed end...... 1.... my right bladed end comes up and across from my right to my left rather quickly to parry the shot at my shoulder and push your right bladed end to my left and up.......I watch as you crouch down quickly and I 2>stumble back wards as you just hit the outside of my left ankle but dont knock me down......3>I then get angry and seeing you still on the ground crouched I swing my left blunt end in from left to right in a low arch for the crook between your neck and shoulder on your right side hoping tomake you fall completely over.......4>I then swing the right bladed end of my spear in from my right to left above your spears guard towards your chin hoping the flat of the blade hits it squarely and makes it smart real good......5>I then growl loudly as I swing the left blunt end in low from left to right towardds your outer right ankle wanting to make you fall down.........hard.....

1. Clean. 2. Clean.

3. "in from left to right ." Whose perspective? Unclear -1.

4. As worded, this is a forcepost. You have to hope/try/attempt to get your weapon over her guard. Forcepost -1.

5. " in low from left to right. Whose perspective? Unclear -1.

Aggression bonus to Gaia.

Aimet 2 + (5 -3) = 4.

says to +Gaia.of.the.jungles: 1. Both hands come up, leveling out my spear and moving up, connecting to the aim for the crook of my right shoulder/neck, feeling it graze along skin... 2. as my spear is now about chin level, I push it up even more to parry the blow to my chin, tilting my head back as I do so to avoid this hit... 3. I waddle back as you aim for my right ankle and feel it hit, grazing along the front and I end up losing my balance anyway, falling the ground with a pensive hrmmmph! Gazing up at you and suddenly laughing as the fight ends...* thanks.... I think... good spar.

You only get two defensive actions on the final post. Too many actions -1.
