*As you come upon the more recreational streets of the Port, you notice a small green, where many young men and women surprisingly are conducting numerous bouts of more than just fencing. There is stavefighting, archery contests, and even revolver marksmanship contests.*
Welcome to the Fencing Arena. Here you may fight in character with each other. This is designed to improve one's rping skills, and also to have lots of spontaneous fun.
For now, I'd like to just have fights that include only the combatants RPing the battle.
Eventually, we will have GM style games, such as the archery contest, where the GM will roll a dice, and based on the letter picked by the player, that is their arrow's outcome. But more on that later.
So pick up a weapon, any kind that would be available in the Carribean at this time, and duel away!!

Paul Lettleby picks up his sword, sheathes it in his belt, and walks over to the arena. He hopes he can get some practice in with someone who wants a duel. David had always teased him, saying he needed more lessons anyways. He wonders if anyone will even notice he's looking for a partner.

Saber Tompsom swaggers in, hanging at her side is well...a saber. She looks around for a victem..I mean partner. Seeing Paul she walks over. "Would ye be intrested in having a little duel? Im mearly named for the blade im carrin', but dont let that put ye off." She grinned one of her classic grins "Well mate? What da ya say?"

*Carrie comes into the arena with a smile. She sees that the Commodore is awaiting a fight and goes up to him widening her smile to a grin* "Will you duel me, Commodore? I've been looking for a challenge."

*Tobbs walked silently to the Fencing Area, her many weapons sheathed or hidden. Looking towards those that were there, she saw Paul would be most likely matched up with Saber, and Carrie perhaps with Norry. Sitting upon a barrel, she waited quietly for someone to approach, or perhaps one of the waiting fighters to try their hand against her, or wait for the winner of a match.*

* Maria goes in and sees some fencing. She sees tobbs at the side waiting. Maria had never fought her before. And she loved sword play maybe she would be good at fencing too. She went up to tobbs* " Tobbs... are you ready?" * She smiled as she gabed all her fencig materials*

Paul grins as he hears Saber. "Sure, mate. Ye want te figh'? Well then, let's get at it." He walked over to a spot, and drew his sword, ready for action.

Saber drew her blade and tested he edge as she walked to the spot that Paul had picked. "Well if our ready mate...looks like youve given me first blow." she said with a lopsided grin. Quickly she swung her blade into the en'gaurd position and thrusted in parry four, it was a faint and she did a cupea' into parry six and lunged to hit Paul.
ooc- sorry if you dont understand me lol. RL fencer dontcha' know.

Paul grinned, then was surprised at her swiftness and her quick attack. He parried her blow, then came back at her with a blow of his own.
O.C.C. Yeah, sorry I'm not good with positions and all, but I manage to get through the fights. If you want, Saber, you can make up my positions and then react like Saber would. Up to you really; my directions are veeery vague, so feel free to play around with'im.

(ooc- I wont godmod but I'll play around a bit *grin*)
Saber parried the blow that Paul made to her arm. The blade almost touched her forearm before she flicked it away. "Nice one mate. I need to limber up a bit. Your not gonna be real easy to beat I can tell." Saber bounced on her toes and waited for a good opening. She began to tap the tip of her blade on the ground hoping that it might distract Paul and allow her to make a good swipe...

Paul grinned at her. "I try, darlin'; I try." He then made another swipe at her, a little thrown off with her tapping her blade on the ground. What in blazes is she doin'? he thought, knowing instantly he had made a mistake once he followed through.

ooc- Maria I have no idea. All i know is that shes really busy and is not able to get on much.
Saber Grinned as she saw her anoying litle tapping was working. She flicked her blade over Paul's as he swiped at her and with the flat of her blade tried to land a touch on his chest.
ooc As to the tapping...I do it in RL when I fence. It drives newbies crazy.

:Oddly enough Jack doesn't look like he's about to fight when he enters the area. Sitting down silently amongest some trees he watched a bemused smile on his face:
