A large white circle that has a fifteen foot radius has been set up. There is a single referee. Only training weapons are allowed, and there are two sets of each of the best weapons. The fight is until a contestant is knocked down, or out of the circle.

Toustain entered the ring, carefully selecting one of the sets of training weapons and looked around for a challenger.

Lorel took a moment to scan the weapons, picking one at first glance. She took a moment, getting used to the weapon's balance as she entered the ring.
"Is it just me, or does this feel a bit unfair." She said, approaching Toustain.
"You have all that armor, Wont it weigh you down. Call me old fashioned, but it feels unsporting, forcing you to fight in all that?"

Wynnter Jora stepped up to the Melee area. She wore a white ribbon around her forearm to signify that she was the referee. She looked at Toustain and nodded in approval. "You look ready." Then she turned to Lorel, ""Are you ready?" She did not seem to believe that Lorel was serious about his intention to battle.

"Lets do this" Lorel said, settling into a fighting stance.

Sabarrah watches and waits her turn.

Wynnter looked at both combatants, and spoke in a commanding tone that comes natural to her, "On my mark." She raised a hand as she moved between the two duelers. Then after a long moment, even longer for Toustain and Lorel, she dropped her hand and yelled, "Mark." She stepped back out of the way, but stayed close to the action.
Toustain rolled a 20 - 1 for his Dex modifier = 19 initiative.
Lorel rolled a 10 + 3 for her Dex modifier = 13 Initiative.
Toustain won the initiative.

Toustain didn't hesitate as soon as the call was made. He went on the attack, his practice sword flashing.

Toustain stepped forward and hefted his long practice blade in his hand. He moved forward in a quick fashion and swung the blade around quickly at the swift tiefling. Lorel tried to drop below the strike.
Toustain rolled a 16 + 3 Strength bonus +2 Proficiency bonus = 21
Lorel has an Armor Class of 14 so the hit is successful.
Toustain does 8 bludgeoning damage and was not striking to kill.
Toustain sees her move low, and slides his foot back. His sword cuts back and strikes the smaller tiefling in her back. She stumbled away, but remained on her feet. The two fighters square off again, but this time Lorel is on the initiative.

Lorel had learnt long ago that almost any foe she faced would be larger than her, Toustain was no exception. For that reason she opted to slip to his left, staying close but making sure he was between her and the closer edge of the ring.
"Over here big guy" She said, as she took a swing at him with her own practice weapon.
(Lorel stays in Melee range, so as not to provoke an attack of opportunity, but has moved to the other side of Toustain before attacking herself).

Lorel ducked and rolled to the other side of Toustain. The Paladin lost sight of her for a moment, but stepped back to correct that. Lorel leaped forward her sword trying to find a crack in the chain mail covering the larger paladin. He was slow, but still a trained fighter.
Lorel rolled a 20 + 3 Dexterity bonus +2 Proficiency bonus = 25. CRITICAL HIT!!
Toustain has an Armor Class of 19 so the hit is successful.
Lorel does 10 bludgeoning damage and was not striking to kill.
Toustain is knocked unconscious
Lorel leaped forward jabbing at the Paladin. Toustain stepped back and moved his shield to block. Exactly as Lorel had hoped he would. The attack was only feigned, instead the Tiefling landed, and used the shield to block Toustain's line of site. The paladin natural turn his head to look for the Tiefling, and did not see the blade until caught the side of his head. The paladin fell to his knees.
Wynnter snorted once in surprise, she was not normally this emotive. She walked forward and raised Lorel hand in victory. After Lorel was given her due, Wynnter laid her hand on Toustain, and healed him completely.

Lorel had been willing to take on people far bigger than her for as long as she could remember, she had always acted overconfident about it too. The situation she faced now was unusual, normally a match ended with her face down in the dirt.
She blinked a couple of times before registering the result, but quickly recovered, and turned to the minuscule audience, offering a cocky bow.
"That was a good fight" She said to Toustain as Wynnter finished healing him.

"A good move. " said Toustain ruefully, not thinking it was a good fight at all. "We'll have to duel again at some stage to see if you were lucky or whether I need to further work on my technique."
