Where is Starling hoping to make contact with his lunge? What part of his body is he using to press against Tinaro? Where exactly is Starling aiming his bite?

+1 lunge, +3 grab for Tinaro’s side

First round.
Starling’s round one total: 35/50
Tinaro: 9 for clarity:
I’m not sure how Starling’s attack to Tinaro’s side ended up on the neck, but since you two confirmed it among each other I’m going to let it go. Also, how exactly is the slight lean to the right avoiding Starling’s attack? More description is needed there.
8 for powerplaying.
Points off for a nested attack. You need to give Starling time to respond to the headbutt before launching the bite. Both of these attacks required the same general body part so they are considered nested.
8 for defenses.
You had all required defenses, but the maneuver where Tinaro lifted both of his legs on his right side resulted in a deduction. It’s very unlikely that a wolf could stand like that, especially in a situation like a fight.
4 for attack.
+1 butting against Starling (he can’t put his full force in if he’s only on two legs), +3 bite/pull on Starling’s foreleg
10 for injuries.
First round.
Tinaro’s round one total: 39/50
ROUND TWO
Starling: 9 for clarity:
How bad is the bite to his leg?
10 for powerplaying.
4 for defenses.
4 for attack.
+4 grip attempt on trapezius muscle
7 for injuries.
-1 moderate bruising to chest, -2 moderate laceration (foreleg)
Starling’s round two total: 34/50
Tinaro: 9 for clarity:
How serious is the injury to his trapezius muscle? You have to clarify this in the fight post, not just in the form at the bottom.
8 for powerplaying.
Multiple attacks are encouraged, but often should be done simultaneously. The fact that you chose to slam their muzzles together and then bite means that Starling doesn’t get a chance to counter the muzzle attack effectively.
8 for defenses.
4 for attack.
+1 muzzle collision, +3 bite to Starling’s cheek
7 for injuries.
-2 injury to trapezius muscle, -1 moderate bruising to muzzle
Tinaro’s round two total: 36/50
Totals:
Starling: 69/100 Tinaro: 75/100
And the winner is...
Tinaro! Starling must give up by either submitting, fleeing, or passing out.
Damage:
Starling:
Moderate bruising to chest, moderate laceration to foreleg. Will take 2 OOC weeks to fully heal.
Tinaro:
Moderate laceration to trapezius muscle, moderate bruising to muzzle. Will take 2 OOC weeks to fully heal.
Notes:
Tips for writing and some suggestions. (no points are deducted here):
For Arin: Starling needed more defenses, but I understand your not using too many of them because he’s a new fighter.
For Millie: Tinaro fought well but made some moves that were unrealistic (lifting both paws from one side of the body off of the ground) and also some that were detrimental to himself as much as his opponent (slamming their muzzles together).
