Walter Kovacs Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 It's Slytherin versus Hufflepuff! Diana Fabray Okay Turkoglu Health - 6 Health - 5 Mid - 0 Expelliarmus - 0 Protego - 0 Mid - 0 Low - 0 Stupefy - 1 Crucio - 1 Low - 0 Expelliarmus - 0 High - 0 Health - 5 Health - 4 The Great Hall falls silent as the two long standing rivals face off. The crowd waited excitedly, knowing that these were the two best duelers in Hogwarts. Okay started quickly, feinting to his left, then flicking his opponent's wand away. Diana recovered quickly though, raising a shield before a devastating attack could get through. But Okay was ready, and caught the Slytherin square with the red sparks of a Stupefy, stunning her. Thinking he had the advantage, the Hufflepuff tried to take out his adversaries legs, only to caught in an unforgivable curse. Diana deftly flicked the wand from Okay's hand, preventing any counter-attack. Good first round. Send in Round 2 when you're ready.
pedro Posted November 25, 2010 Posted November 25, 2010 Glad to hear she (Isla is a girl's name, right?) is doing well. How do you like fatherhood? I know it was a bit of an adjustment, but I enjoyed the transition immensely. I'd love to take you on, after you are done with Fox. I might even stand a chance. Aye, Isla is a girl! Fatherhood is amazing so far, seems to have come so naturally. Let's see how we're faring in a few months! As for the duel: DS sent. We can tango afterwards Walter!
Walter Kovacs Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Round 2 Diana Fabray Okay Turkoglu Health - 5 Health - 4 Protego - 0 Low - 0 High - 0 Stupefy - 1 Protego - 0 High - 0 Expelliarmus - 0 Mid - 0 Crucio - 0 Expelliarmus - 0 Health - 4 Health - 4 Hufflepuff and Slytherin once again take their positions as the crowd around them watches breathlessly. Okay tries to start quickly, only to be met with a shield charm. But Diana never expects the follow up attack, and again catches the brunt of a Stupefy hex. Trying to regain her senses, Ms Fabray quickly puts up another shield, trying to clear the cobwebs from her head. She disarms her opponent trying to slow the onslaught by Okay. But whne she attempts her Cruciatus curse, she finds her wand missing from her hand. Offense will have to wait for the next round. Okay has finally managed to even the duel up. DS for Round 3, please.
XimenaPaulina Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Intense! I have a feeling Okay's Natural Talent will prove pivotal in the decisive round. DS sent!
CommanderFox Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 (edited) DS for round 1 sent CMP! Good luck Pedro! CF Edited November 26, 2010 by CommanderFox
ADHO15 Posted November 26, 2010 Author Posted November 26, 2010 Aye, Isla is a girl! Fatherhood is amazing so far, seems to have come so naturally. Let's see how we're faring in a few months! I knew it would be! Many congratulations, pedro! I'm so glad everything's going so well!
Walter Kovacs Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Round 3 Diana Fabray Okay Turkoglu Health - 4 Health - 4 Mid - 0 Mid - 1 High - 0 Expelliarmus - 0 Crucio - 1 High - 0 Expelliarmus - 0 Stupefy - 0 Low - 0 Low - 1 Health - 2 Health - 3 Two of the most experienced duelers currently at Hogwarts continue their fierce duel. Both combatants fire a simple hex to the midsection. Diana is stunned when Okay's connects. Was this some kind of new magic she had never encountered? Realizing the trouble she was in, she tries a hex to Okay's head, only to see her wand fly across the room. Quickly recovering, she sends the Hufflepuff writhing on the floor in the grips of a Cruciatus curse. She quickly disarms her foe, trying to focus all her strength for her final attack. But again she is shocked when her charm towards Okay's legs is countered by his own low charm. Hanging her head in defeat, she slinks from the Great Hall. Winner: Okay Turkoglu! Update your profiles. Intense! I have a feeling Okay's Natural Talent will prove pivotal in the decisive round. DS sent! How prophetic!
XimenaPaulina Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 How prophetic! Argh! I'm not named after the Prophet Ezekiel for nothing. Too bad the prophecy was against me. Oh well, that's how the game goes. Congrats Oky, you've finally avenge your ice cream. Thanks also Walter for the ADJ.
CMP Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Sorry, but you guys have to find a different ADJ. My decent computer is having major technical issues, and this one is god awful.
CommanderFox Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 Sorry, but you guys have to find a different ADJ. My decent computer is having major technical issues, and this one is god awful. I feel sorry for you...I hate it when that happens Anyone keen to ADJ for me and Pedro? CF
Oky Posted November 26, 2010 Posted November 26, 2010 (edited) Intense! I have a feeling Okay's Natural Talent will prove pivotal in the decisive round. DS sent! I thought you got toughness when you became Magus, not divination! An exciting duel indeed! And huzzah for my ice cream! It can rest in peace now. My decent computer is having major technical issues Not so decent then, is it? Sorry to hear that. I'm slowly settling old scores. Would you like to be next, Carlos? (No, I'm totally not trying to take advantage of your situation. ) EDIT: I can adj. for you, if you want, CF. I think it's time for me to get into the adjudicating business too.

Oky Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 (edited) Ollivander Dippet VS. Lelith DeNomolos Round 1 Ollivander ____________________________Lelith Low - 1 _______________________________Mid - 0 Expelliarmus - 1 ______________________Protego - 0 High - 0 ______________________________Mid - 1 Expecto Patronum - 0 __________________Protego - 0 Mid - 0 _______________________________Mid - 0 Health: 4 _____________________________Health: 3 Since her first defeat in the Dueling Club, newcomer Lelith had not been seen again. She had spent all her free time in the library, trying to learn as much as possible to avoid failing again and dishonoring her parents' last request of her becoming the best Witch of all. After weeks of studying, she felt that she was ready to take on anyone, even an adept! One might say there was new hope born in her. And so, she accepted a duel with Ollivander Dippet, a Gryffindor who prided himself on being the only one to have ever beaten Lelith's fellow Slytherin Carlos Peerce, the dueling champion. Lelith decided that this fool needed to be put in his place, so she stepped forward confidently. She aimed her first spell right at Ollivander's chest, but he was able to dodge it in time and shot a leg-locker curse at her. Lelith immediately fell over, and to avoid getting hit while removing the curse, she cast a shield charm over herself. However, Ollivander yelled "Expelliarmus!" and broke through her shield, sending her wand flying. Ollivander tried to take advantage of the moment and shot a spell at Lelith's head, but she leaped out of the way toward her wand. Once she had it in her hand, she quickly fired the curse at him that she tried before, and it hit him right in the stomach, causing him to fall on his knees and vomit all over the floor in front of him. Trying to overcome his nausea, Ollivander mentally visited his happy-place. As Lelith got ready to cast another spell at him, he remembered the feeling of defeating Carlos Peerce and said "Expecto Patronum!" A glowing white labrador emerged from his wand and jumped toward Lelith, but she cast another protective spell. The labrador collided with the shield and both disintegrated in a puff of smoke. With their sight impaired by the smoke, the two duelists made blind attempts at hitting each other with spells, but they both missed. As the smoke cleared, Ollivander and Lelith stood there staring at each other, wands pointed at one another... The first round ends with both duelists hit, one more than the other. Send in your Round 2 sheets when ready! (New-born hope - Get it? ) Edited November 28, 2010 by Oky Wan Kenobi
pedro Posted November 27, 2010 Posted November 27, 2010 Great commentary Oky! Ollivander has experience on his side but young Lelith will prove she's no push-over! DS on it's way...
CommanderFox Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 (edited) Ollivander mentally visited his happy-place. (New-born hope... white fox... Get it? ) I have a happy place?! Haha, nice, but my patronus is a labrador. Maybe my patronus could change to a white fox, mind you patronus's sometimes get weaker when they change...don't want to end up like Tonks. DS sent for round 2! Good luck young Lelith! CF Edited November 28, 2010 by CommanderFox
Oky Posted November 28, 2010 Posted November 28, 2010 Great commentary Oky! Thanks, I do my best to honor the writing quality of Miss Rowling. Haha, nice, but my patronus is a labrador. Maybe my patronus could change to a white fox, mind you patronus's sometimes get weaker when they change...don't want to end up like Tonks. I changed it for you. Ollivander Dippet VS. Lelith DeNomolos Round 2 Ollivander ___________________________Lelith High - 0 ______________________________Protego - 0 Mid - 1 _______________________________High - 0 Expelliarmus - 1 _______________________Protego - 0 Low - 1 _______________________________Mid - 0 Expecto Patronum - 0 __________________ Protego - 0 Health: 4 _____________________________Health: 0 Ollivander was the first to break the dramatic silence as he fired a spell at Lelith's head, but she quickly blocked it with a shield charm and shot a spell at Ollivander's head in return. However, with his Quidditch-player reflexes, the Gryffindor dodged the attack and cast another spell which caught Lelith by surprise and made her stumble backwards. Ollivander used this moment of confusion to disarm his opponent. Lelith cried "Protego!", but she lost her wand before she finished the word and fell to the floor. She desperately grabbed it and fired a curse in Ollivander's direction, but she missed. "All too easy," said Ollivander and cast a spell that drained Lelith's last bit of will to fight. Knowing he had won, he summoned his patronus again to tease the young Slytherin girl, but she cast yet another shield charm to keep the white dog away from her. Lelith got up and left the Great Hall as fast as she could, trying to avoid the disappointed and taunting looks of her fellow Slytherins. Clearly she had not studied enough... or was it just practice that she was lacking? Winner: Ollivander Dippet Ouch! Tough luck, pedro, hopefully you'll do better next time. Congrats, CF! Two more wins 'til Magus status! Please update your profiles accordingly.
