Okay, here's how the sparring sessions are going to work. You will be engaging in battle, one at a time, with an Ageless of my choice. I am having Kith go first because he is a talented board battle veteran and will likely be able to provide an excellent example for those of you who are a bit more inexperienced.
A few key points to remember:
1.) Be sure to utilize your skills and attributes. For example, if someone levels a brutal attack at you, you might be able to say something like,
"________ fortifies his defenses by using his hardy Constitution. (Continue to give further description as to how this will work. Your skin might harden to stone, you might simply shrug off the effects, etc. Whatever you decide, make it awesome.)
You might continue by saying. "His Soak is quite advanced, and should the attack hit, he will likely be able to dispel its effects." After your description, please mention what Attribute/Skill you used by denoting it in parentheses. In this case. (Constitution- SOAK)
2. POST ONLY FOR YOUR CHARACTER.
3. Do not god-mod the actions or effects felt by the NPCs. Do not assume that your attack hits or that you have damaged your opponent. Instead, tell me what COULD happen if the attack hits.
"A gout of flame erupts from ____________'s fingertips as he calls upon his dominion over fire by using his Inferno spell. Should this attack hit, his target will be knocked backwards by the force of the flame and will continue to take fire damage for some time after."
4. The better your description, the better your results. Please bear in mind that this does not mean you should write a twelve paragraph description. It's quality over quantity. I'd rather have you write a few awesome sentences as opposed to several lackluster paragraphs.
