CYPRESS vs XEPHYRIS for SPAR



ROUND ONE


CYPRESS

CLARITY
- Not taking points off here, but this is just a fair warning to you! You NEED to list a reason for your fight, spar, maim, ect, or run the risk of being defaulted.
- “...he sought to slam his right side into Xyphyris' own to knock the other off balance.” What is he aiming to hit, what against what? Shoulder to shoulder, or are you aiming for the flank? -2
Total: 8

POWERPLAY
- None!
Total: 10

DEFENSES
Shoulders rolled, head aligned with spine, chin tucked, ears pinned, eyes narrowed, tail tucked, hackles raised, lips snarling, weight evenly distributed, legs spread.
Total: 10

ATTACK
+ 1 shoulder slam
+ 1 paw slam
Total: 2

INJURIES
- First round!
Total: 10

Total for Round One: 40 / 50

XEPHYRIS

CLARITY
- “...the strike would probably cause some bruising and soreness.” How much damage did he take from the hit? Is it a minor bruise, or more major? Without stating the actual damage taken, it is left up to the judge, who can end up giving you more damage than you hoped for. -2
- “Cypress' right shoulder slammed into Xeph's ribs...” Where along the ribs? Upper half, lower half? Between the first and second rib, forth and fifth? -2
Total: 6

POWERPLAY
- “...lunging toward Cypress with all of his might and speed,...” This must be attempted, since you are assuming Cypress' position has not changed. -2
Total: 8

DEFENSES
Lips snarling, ears folded, hackles rose, head aligned with spine, chin tucked, tail aligned with spine, legs bent, weight distributed, claws dug in ground. (I didn't count shoulders braced in this one, as it was a little vauge. Generally here we say that shoulders rolled is the best defence, unless you are bracing for impact. Because Xeph re braced in the next paragraph, I didn't count it.)
Total: 9

ATTACK
+ 1 shoulder to shoulder slam.
+ 3 for bite to cheek plus hold attempt.
+ 1 paw slam
Total: 5

INJURIES
- First Round!
- (Moderate bruising to right rib cage, decided by judge.)
Total: 10

Total for Round One: 38 / 50

ROUND TWO


CYPRESS

CLARITY
- “The other man would crash into him, causing Cypress to stagger back a couple steps, but fall towards his intended target.” A blow this strong would have left at least some minor, but it didn't seem to at all. -2
Total: 8

POWERPLAY
- “Claws would bite into the soil as the man shifted his direction to his own right, coming to face his opponent once more.” Must be attempted, you are assuming your opponents position has not moved. -2
- “The other man would crash into him, causing Cypress to stagger back a couple steps, but fall towards his intended target.” This is a bit of an unrealistic hit, because without assuming that the bear hug had landed, a hit like that would have sent him toppling onto his back. -2
- “...top jaw landing above his opponent’s left ear...” Must be attempted. -2
Total: 6

DEFENSES
Weight distributed, toes spread, legs spread, tail tucked, ears pinned, eyes narrowed, claws in ground, hackles, shoulders rolled.
Total: 9

ATTACK
+ 1 bear hug.
+ 3 bite to face plus grip attempt (Geeze you guys like face bites.)
Total: 4

INJURIES
- Moderate bite to top of right foreleg. -3
- Minor bruise to the front of chest. -1
Total: 6

Total for Round Two: 33 / 50

XEPHYRIS

CLARITY
- “...and teeth hooked just underneath the line of his jaw on the same side, puncturing the skin, shallower under the jaw and slightly deeper on top of his head.” You need to be a bit more clear about damage here, its really hard to tell just how deep the bite is and therefore just how much damage was taken. -2
Total: 8

POWERPLAY
- “Upper and lower incisors pinched a good fold of skin, to which he gave a good shake with his head, trying to leave a small tear and good bruising where his teeth had clamped down.” “...Xephyris would shake his head harder, jaws still clamped down on Cy's skin, trying to dislodge the other male from his body.” You cannot attempt the same body movement in the same post, you are not giving your opponent enough time to react to the initial movement. -2
Total: 8

DEFENSES
Tail aligned with spine, weight balanced for rear, legs bent, legs spread, toes spread, claws in ground, ears pinned, lips snarling, eyes narrowed.
Total: 9

ATTACK
+ 1 for worsening damage.
+ 1 shove.
Total: 2

INJURIES
- Moderate bite on head/lower jaw. -3
Total: 7

Total for Round Two: 34 / 50

Totals:

CYPRESS
40 + 33 = 73 / 100

XEPHYRIS
38 + 34 = 72 / 100

And the winner is...

CYPRESS
Zephyris must give up by submitting, fleeing or passing out.

Damage:

CYPRESS
- Moderate bite to the top of the right foreleg will take 2 OOC weeks to heal, possible scarring.
- Minor bruise to the front, middle of chest will take 3 OOC days to heal.

XEPHYRIS
- Moderate bruise to right rib cage will take 5 OOC days to heal.
- Moderate bite to back of year, bottom of jaw will take 2 OOC weeks to heal, possible scarring.

Notes:

Tips for writing and some suggestions. (no points are deducted here):

Keno
This was so close, holy man. Um most of my notes are listed above, but make sure you get 10 defenses in here! Its real easy points. Also watch your attack/dodge realism, and just how you word them. I know how hard it can be to be clear, but just take that little extra time to make sure that it makes sense. Just make sure that all movement that effects your opponent is attempted.

SHADOWED
Again most of most of my notes are above. But I am very impressed with you! I think this is your first fight here, and you did very well! Be sure to attempt movements that effect your opponent, and try to list 10 defenses in there! Also, only use one part of your body in each fight post, otherwise you are not leaving enough time for your opponent to react to the first movement.
