isopia
It is her dragon's - her newest dragon, anyways - idea to spar. Although he is far too young to join her in the metaphorical battlefield, he wants to watch. Already his appetite for violence and his thirst for knowledge has far exceeded any inklings that Hubris had ever shown. It doesn't make Isopia uneasy so much as curious, and so when a challenger presents herself, the demigoddess willingly submits to the golden dragon's wishes. Isopia eyes the mare standing on her hind legs and issuing a cry that was all too easy to identify. The Mountain did not know this mare, but given her relative ease within the confines of the World's Edge, Iso could only assume this was her home as well. It seemed the perfect opportunity; Babel wanted to watch a spar, and Isopia was keen to try and be more social (despite how foreign that concept still seemed to her). "I am called The Mountain That Knows." Isopia's voice rang clearly through the misty air. "And I accept your offer." She wasn't one for introductions, but as Hubris had pointed out to her on more than one occasion, it went hand in hand with more socially acceptable behaviour. The mare before her had neither wings nor horns, which in Isopia's mind, put her at a decided disadvantage against the tribrid. Isopia also towered over her, but that was not surprising; the demigoddess was taller than almost everyone. But do you have magic? she wondered silently to herself. Only one way to find out. Isopia called upon the magic singing through her veins. She created an arrow made of stone and thrust it towards the mare's left shoulder. Unlike her last two fights wherein her intent had been to kill, this was more of a friendly spar, and so her arrow aimed only to graze the mare's shoulder, rather than puncture or tear anything of importance. Iso kept her wings pinned against her flanks, determined not to take to the skies during this fight; it wouldn't really be fair to the equine. If Nitika did not have magic, she would likely charge after Isopia's first attack, and so the maroon and cream tribrid readied herself, widening her stance slightly, so that she could adapt to whatever the equine did next. On the sidelines, Hubris sat with his new brother, Babel. Hubris had seen his bonded fight more than once, and so was not particularly interested in this display. Babel however took in the scene with wide, black eyes. WC: 419 Attack: 1/3 Summary: Isopia uses this magic: :: [ Magic: EarthxWater (U) | Can create shapes out of the earth or water ] :: [ Restrictions | Can only create 2 large shapes (large horse size or smaller) or 5 smaller shapes (dog size or smaller); lasts one post in battle. ] to create an arrow which she tries to throw towards Nitika's left shoulder. Ooohhh, no more than 500 words - that'll be quite the challenge! Would you like this to be a 'teaching spar' ? What that means is that I offer OOC commentary on your posts and give you tips and pointers about how you can improve. There's no obligation on your part to do anything, but if you're just starting out, it can be helpful! A few things 1. Powerplay is NEVER allowed. Sometimes you can do some minor PP, as long as you have permission, in normal threads. However in spars or challenges, you'll get marks taken off. So no worries about that there! 2. For damage, the dice determine the damage. However even if Isopia were to roll a 'critical hit' against you (which is the strongest attack she could do), you wouldn't need to have it permanently injure Nitika or anything like that. 3. There is no actual place known as 'the battleground'. We use this board as a way of keeping all of our spars/challenges in the same place so we can keep track of them. However whenever you spar, you get to set the location! Since both Nitika and Iso are from the Edge, how about we say the spar is set there? |
