1221.t The Dimicatio

[Hitsumei]

@Peregrine_Bjornaer

Fieltarn has the misfortune of drawing Magmas ex Flambeau, from the Iberia Tribunal – one of the Dimicatio semi-finalists from the previous Tribunal Tournament.

Great...Thinks Fieltarn as he hears the name (and rank) of his oponent. I've a feeling that I won't score that many points for my team.

As the contestants approach their marks, the referee leans over and murmurs to his herald. "Contestants, pray approach the bench," the herald cries.

As Fieltarn and Magmas reach the referee's box, the referee fixes what he believes to be Fieltarn with a stern expression.

"Magus Fieltarn...I understand that you are newly come to Normandy, and may be unfamiliar with the rules of Dimicatio. Each magus is to cast a spell that targets their opponent, and the opponent is to attempt to block said spell before it reaches their Parma. Dispel your magic so that we may continue with the bout, please."

(ooc, if I'm reading the description for Unraveling the Fabric of (Imaginem) (p. 161) correctly, all it would take to dispel Wizard's Sidestep would be basically not to botch a spontaneous PeVi spell, since Wizard's Sidestep is only a level 10 spell).

"Err... My apologies, to you and to my opponent." Fieltarn politely bows his head to Magmas too, "I had heard otherwise(*), about the possibility of preparing... but anyway, you're right, this is indeed the first time I participate in such event, here or otherwise."

=> 3 Perdo + 4 Vim + die roll of 6 : 14/2 = 7 (+10, the spell is indeed dispersed.
=> second spell...second roll (of 7) ; dispersed too.

No botch, but Fieltarn has already lost two fatigue levels, hence another -1 to his upcoming rolls. "Really... I'm gone "shine" here." he thinks, bemused but the weariness that comes upon him.
