Galahad
. . .


Galahad's initial attack, the shoulder slam, would be successful. His own shoulder would get bruised from the attack of course, but it was hopefully more minimal than his opponent. That was a subconscious thought however. For though Gala's intentions were not to seriously harm or main his opponent, he was going all out, and in this to win. What was he fighting for? At this point Galahad wasn't sure anymore. The thought of becoming an alpha, of fighting for those weaker than himself rose in his mind. A noble effort, a valiant effort, but so too rose the thought of finding someone, something, that he believed in, and sticking with them until the very end. His family was once a 'family' group of rogues... why not be that again?

The impact of his own attack landing would cause the other to slide back slightly, barely giving him time to check his stance. The other would come back towards him. He would shift his own body in a sidestep, to his left, Bass's shoulder sliding slight alongside his own so that their fur was touching, but at the very least both had avoided further bruising. Head would swing to the right, jaws snapping on the ends of Bass's fur hair's rather than flesh as the other male side stepped to avoid the attack. Well, not fully, since he managed to pull out some fur. Eyes remained narrowed with determination, brow furrowed and ears pinned flat to his skull. Regardless of attacks missing Gala would not give up!

With how close they were Galahad thought he saw an opportunity. Shoulders rolling forward again, pushing through the pain of the bruising, and right paw raising, he would slam it downward in an attempt to slam it upon other male's right front paw. He would center his weight again by shifting it forward, hoping to aid speed in the shift of weight. When the paw hit the ground again he would be centered, but this wasn't the case. Bass, who also saw an opportunity as Galahad lifted his paw, would snap his jaws towards Galahad's raised paw.

Thank goodness it had been coming down so fast, otherwise Bass might have grabbed the entire paw in his mouth. Instead the brute's jaws ended up landing upon his right foreleg just below the middle part of the middle section, enough above the ankle that it was not caught in the man's jaws. The other man's teeth would puncture the flesh a bit, gaining a hold. His body would react faster than his mind, shifting to the right, in a side step that had him more of an angle, but with his one leg compromised Galahad was expecting an attempted swipe upon his left in order to make him lose his balance and fall. Thank goodness for previous experience in fight where that was an aim of his opponents, because as he shifted, bringing his left front leg in a bit closer, he would narrowly avoid the paw swipe aimed at his knee. The claws of his opponent would graze the front part of his left foreleg's knee however, creating small scratches.

Tail raised once more, aligning with his spine, as hackles remained bristled. Galahad would distribute his weight as much as he could in this position, though it was hardly even with one limb raised. Tipping his head forward, and now facing Bass a bit more, meaning his leg was crossed in front of him slightly, he would make a move for the target he thought he could get.

Right now he aimed for a single attack. In his current position it would likely be hard to do much else without even more further injury to himself. His jaws opened, aiming for a larger bite upon the man?s scruff. With it scrunched he aimed to hold onto the bunched skin, shaking his head vigerously back and forth, in an attempt to make the other let go. Punctures from his teeth would be likely, though further damage to his own limb from his counterattack was a danger as well. It was a risk Galahad was willing to take.

Galahad vs Bass for Spar
Round:: 2 / 3

Attacks:: His jaws opened, aiming for a larger bite upon the man?s scruff. With it scrunched he aimed to hold onto the bunched skin, shaking his head vigerously back and forth, in an attempt to make the other let go. Punctures from his teeth would be likely, though further damage to his own limb from his counterattack was a danger as well. It was a risk Galahad was willing to take.
Defenses:: Eyes Narrowed, Ears Pinned, Brow Furrowed || Shoulders Rolled Forward, Tailed Raised And Aligned With Spine, Hackles Raised
Injuries:: Mild bruising upon the front of the right shoulder, Punctures on right foreleg around the middle of the lower section of the leg, Minor scratches upon left foreleg's knee
Notes: My brain went to mush for spar writing. Including less defenses cause I pretty much know only the basic set I use and some of them, due to Galahad?s positioning, weren?t really possible.
