Armored Combat Advanced category Round 2
Lea Goldsmith knives and daggers Skill 18 Armor: Minimal (Bracers and a heavy canvas sleevless tunic) (minus 2 on rolls) Shield: no, but she does have a knife in each hand she uses both for defence and attack.
She figures her womanly wiles won't work on the large, pretty Skandian woman, so she decides to press her agilty and speed advantage. She comes to an attack immediately upon the sound of the horn.
2 Miss (no damage inflicted)

Lea was surprised at how fast the woman eluded her lunge and tries again.
2 Miss (no damage inflicted)
Becoming flustered, Lea misses again as the woman sidesteps her. 'This is going to be much harder than I thought. I wish I could throw one of my blades, that would slow her down some.' she thought as she circled and tried to dodge Fin's swipe with the huge axe.

Lea tries to trick Fin and attacks again.

Fin sucks in her breath in pain as the dulled knife slashes her bare skin, not actually cutting her, but leaving a mark all the same. She doesn't waste any time and attacks ferociously.
20 Critical hit (inflict such a severe injury that death is imminent or a “called” shot)
She turns the blade at the last second so the flat of the axe hits Lea in the stomach and sends the small woman soaring through the air to land on her butt in the dirt with a "hhummmpppffff!"
20 + 15 = 35 - 2 = 33 - 4 = 29
Fin 29, Lea 29: No advantage. Score remains 1 to 1
Fin swings her axe quickly from side to side and over her head, showing off as she gives Lea a chance to get back onto her feet. She winks at Ringulf and grins.

The crowd cheers and Lea notices that they are attracting quite a lot of people to this match. She takes a moment to catch her breath as she flirts with the audience, dancing around the Skandian woman, just out of range.
Without any warning, she darts in for another strike.
7 Head (light damage – flesh wound, bruise)
It was less than spectacular. She hoped the axe would not decend upon her head this time.
7 + 18 = 25 - 6 = 19 Total: 19

Fin was ready for her wiley tactics this time and blocks the knife with the haft of her axe as she follows through with a blow before Lea can dance out of range again.

Somehow her hands become entangled in her armor and she fumbles her weapon. Lea gives her time to recover it and they begin again.
Fin lunges, swinging her axe in a wide arc.
6 Right leg (light damage – flesh wound, bruise)
6 + 15 = 21 - 2 = 19 - 4 = 15

Lea knows she doesn't have this bout licked yet. She concentrates, waiting for an opening as Fin spins and swirls her axe to keep her at bay.

Fin knocks one of Lea's knives out of her hand and Lea quickly draws another dulled weapon from her boot, knowing she needs ever advantage she can get against this opponent.
15 Right leg (severe damage – deep cut, bone breakage)
She sees an opening and jumps into it, stabbing her blade at Fin's leg.
15 + 18 = 33 - 6 = 27 total 27

Fin tries to avoid the blow, but she had extended her reach too far and Lea got inside her defences again. She grunted as the blade struck her in the leg, but didn't let that slow her down. She swung the axe again, hoping to knock Lea back on her butt in the dirt again.
2 Miss (no damage inflicted)

Lea wins the match.
She replaced her blades in her boots and belt sheath and approached the big woman, a grin on her face.
"That was fun! Seems like we may have been a favorite among the crowd." She nodded to their audience who were cheering and clapping. "Good blow, that, knocking me on my butt there." Lea laughed and held out her hand.
