Armored Combat, Novice Category, Round six
Tory Waterton (2 losses) Knives Skill level 9 Armor: minimal (-2) (reinforced leather vest and leather bracers on her arms.) Shield: yes (knife in off-hand -4)(cancels out if opponent has knife also)
Tory shakes Tam's hand as she reaches the center of the arena. "Looks like you are going to get the chance to trounce me again." She smiles at him. "May the best man - or woman - win!"
She took up her stance and circled Tam, hoping maybe she was just a little bit better than him with her knives.
15 Right leg (severe damage – deep cut, bone breakage) 15 + 9 = 24 - 2 (armor?) = 22

Tam's side aches from the previous fights but he's determined to keep that from affecting his fight too much. He returns the shake and smile and takes his own stance.

Tory cocks her head to one side and studies Tam as they circle again. "Are you okay? You are moving a bit funny."
Not wanting to hurt Tam, she

Tory can see one side is hurting on Tam so she takes care to avoid touching it, not wanting to aggrevate an injury. She thinks he probably should withdraw, but he doesn't seem to want to, so she attacks again.
17 Torso back (severe damage – deep cut, vital organ pierced, spine broken)
17 + 9 -2 = 24
She spins around him and takes a slash at his back and it works. She frowns as she can tell Tam is not up to his usual fighting prowess. "Are you sure you don't want to withdraw? You don't look so great." He is sporting several bruises on his face too, as if he'd been in a fist fight. Had those all come from the tournament? Tory didn't think so.

Tam spins to his left to follow her and doubles over when she lands a hefty strike, causing him to wince as he straightens and gives a lopsided swipe back at her.
4 Right arm (light damage – flesh wound, bruise)
4+8=12-2=10
Tam grits his teeth. "I'll stick it out."
Tory, 2-1

"I guess you will!" Tory sucks in air through her teeth, her neck smarting.
10 Glancing blow (very little to no damage inflicted)
10 + 9 = 19 - 2 = 17
She tries to strike him again, but her neck pain is distracting her.

Tory shakes it, nodding. "I thought I just might for a moment." She says. "But you have been doing much better than I. I am glad you won. That puts you down to the final two! I hope you do well. I wish there could be three winners, though, for I would like to see you, Mylia and Ari all win." She said as they left the field. She heard him gasp and saw him holding his side and remembered her own broken ribs that day she had met Patrick.
"Broken ribs are a pain. They take months to heal and riding horse is excrutiating. Try not to use your bow much, if your mentor will let you off practicing. That is what really kept my ribs from healing up, but we were fighting in Gallica, so I didn't have much choice." Tory waved to Rick and then turned to watch Mylia and Ari as they entered the field.
