Sieq in the Amore Manor

(Improv Combo -roll 66, 89, 73- 1 Success and 2 Fail!)

"G-Gotcha." the Alurane grunted in pain as Sieq struck her one last time before she retreated into her flower.



Sieq: 8 Willpower

Sieq went a bit further down the path to be far enough away from the Alraune. But, he knew that if he had to fight Daphne like this, he wouldn't stand a chance. He looked for a safe place he could have a breather.

Rest

(Rest -roll 34- Success!)
(Encounter -roll 97- Crit Fail!)

Remembering the edge of the garden wasn't actually that far from where he was. Sieq walked out of it before resting up in safety.




Sieq: 18 Willpower

Sieq took a deep breath and kept resting. He wondered what Daphne might look like as he waited.

Rest

(Rest -roll 68- Success!)
(Encounter -roll 29- Fail!)

The dragon man just continued resting until he was almost back at 100%.

Sieq: 28 Willpower

Okay, he was as good as he was going to get. Time to find the gardener. Wherever could she be?

Search

(Search -roll 54- Success!)

Sieq went back into the garden, and it wasn't long before he found a clearing in the overgrown mess. Tend to the flowers in it was a woman with a modest figure, green hair and matching eyes, and tanned skin. Her clothing consists of a bikini made entirely out of plants.

She didn't seem to have noticed him.


Sieq: 28 Willpower
Daphne: 30 Stamina

"Hello there, are you Daphne? I stumbled upon this manor by happenstance, and it seems the maids and Alraunes expect me to fight my way through to the daughters of the Lady. If it's alright, I'd like to test myself against you." Sieq said, not wanting to ambush her. He wasn't sure of the exact motives behind the game he was playing right now, but it didn't seem so severe that he had to attack an unaware lady.

"Oh." the tanned woman said as she lifted up her head. She put down her water can and turned to face Sieq. "Yes, I'm Daphne, and I'd be delighted to fight you."



Sieq: 28 Willpower
Daphne: 30 Stamina

"That's great! Okay, here I come, miss." Sieq said, wreathing his arms in lightning and sending it out at his opponent.

Draconic Bolt

(DRaconic Bolt -roll 79- Fail!)
(Welcome To my Garden -roll 82- Success! Disadvantage -roll 7- Fail!)

"Not even telling me your name before we begin?" Daphne asked as she ducked under his bolt of magic. She then rushed of and planted a kiss on each of his cheeks.



Sieq: 26 Willpower
Daphne: 30 Stamina

"I'm sorry, Miss Daphne! My name is Sieq, it's good to meet you, and I hope you'll forgive my manners." Sieq said to her, blushing out of embarrassment and her playful kisses. Since she was close, he tried a close quarters attack.

Improv Combo

(Improv Attack -roll 87, 57, 54- 1 Success, and 2 Fail!)
(Daisy Chain -roll 69- Fail!)

"That's okay." she told him with a kind smile even as she was knocked back.

Sieq: 26 Willpower
Daphne: 29 Stamina

Sieq nodded and smiled before leaping up and trying to come down on her with a hard kick to the head. It was a lot more fun when the fights were friendly, he thought.

Straightforward Strike

(Straightforward Strike -roll 64- Success!)
(Every Rose Has It's Thorns -roll 7- Crit Fail!)

The heel of Sieq's foot hit the tanned woman in the head and smashed her face into the ground.


Sieq: 26 Willpower
Daphne: 26 Stamina + Off Balance

"I won't go easy on you, Miss Daphne!" He picked the lady up off of the ground by her waist then slammed her back into the grass.

Grapple and Toss

(Grapple and Toss -Auto due to Off Balance!)
(Get Up -roll 57- Fail!)

The midara let out a groan as she was lifted up and slammed back down.



Sieq: 25 Willpower
Daphne: 24 Stamina + Downed

With her floored, Sieq empowered his arms and brought them down on her. He wasn't sure what sorts of tricks a gardener midara could have, and he didn't want to find out.

Dragon Claw

(Dragon Claw -roll 92- Crit Success! Blight -roll 43- Fail!)

Daphne let out a pained cry as Sieq's claws raked against her bare back.


Sieq: 25 Willpower
Daphne: 21 Stamina + Downed

No, he wasn't going to show mercy. He would apologize and make nice as much as he needed to afterwards, but for now he wanted to beat this challenge.

Headbutt

(Headbutt -roll 87- Fail!)
(Get Up -roll 99- Crit Fail!)

Daphne rolled out the way of Sieq's strike only to crash into a bush.


Sieq: 25 Willpower
Daphne: 21 Stamina + Downed + Off Balance

He kept after her, not giving her any room to breathe. She probably wouldn't do the same if the roles were reversed, at least that's what he told himself.

Straightforward Strike

(Straightforward Strike -Auto due to Off Balance!)
(Get Up -roll 55- Fail!)

The tanned woman groaned as Sieq struck her again. "Ugh, seems I'm a bit out of practice."


Sieq: 25 Willpower
Daphne: 18 Stamina + Downed

"Then you can use me as practice. Come on!" Sieq said, hoping it would fire her up a little (without burning her flowers of course.)

Draconic Bolt

(Draconic Bolt -roll 69- Fail!)
(Get Up -roll 48- Success!)

"Right." Daphne agreed as she rolled out of the way of his magic and got back on her feet.
