Blunt and Trauma Weapons

[Azog]

The door to a large courtyard east of the temple flew open. A mighty man stood inside, awaiting his pupils' entrances. Along the walls, many maces, axes, hammers and various other weapons were on display. Labels were engraved into wood tablets that were fastened to the rock wall.

Alkorrian fastened his leather armor and picked up an axe. He lined up a few axes on the stone ground, quickly and neatly.

A sign was posted near the entrance that read, "All students, please stand behind any axe you choose. DO NOT TOUCH THEM."

Hi, my name is Charmiana said the forward young elf who came and shook Azog's hand, I do not know if this class is for me or only those training to be mountain Kings. For I have only used a axe once and well Glaren will remember the incident.

[Azog]

"If you are up for a challenge..." spoke Alkorrian, "Then this class is for you. Besides, who wouldn't want to learn how to crush a man's skull in a single blow?" he spoke lightheartedly.

[ms Greenleaf]

"Does one have t o hit them with an axe or will a quaint sword do

By that I can only assume you mean this.

[ms Greenleaf]

Yes i meant on the hills or something or an other (sorry)

"If you desire to fight with a sword, then this is not a session for you, but if you wish to expand, I shall gladly teach you." Alkorrian said. "You shall soon see the advantages and disadvantages of fighting with a concussion weapon."

"Would you like to spar, my mace against your blade?" he asked, wanting to show her a great fighting technique.

[ms Greenleaf]

Charmiana drew her sword, I am ready. She knew he would try and disarm her and then assume that she was done...of course that was not the case with Charmiana...she was a skilled hand to well weapon conbatist.

[Azog]

Alkorrian turned and removed an old mace from the wall. He tossed it into the air, and caught it. "This shall do, although it has been left out in the rain a time or two."

He stood facing Charmiana, and held out his hand. "It will be a pleasure to duel with you."

Alkorrian's knowledge of the fighting was great, and he quickly eyed Charmiana, looking for a weakness. His mind was greatly attuned to the ways of combat, for long ago he had been an assassin. He had given up his sword, for he thought himself too dangerous with one.

"En gaurde my friend." Alkorr spoke.

[Aulë]

A dwarf in brown strolled into the room, and walked up to where Alkarrion was facing Charmiana.
"Chokang son of Dwalin at your service," he bowed, "would it be possible for me to use my own axes in this class?"

[ms Greenleaf]

Charmiana saw him eyeing her up and wonndered what pthers saw as her flaws... she would never know. She stood ready and awaited. She was training to be an assasin but so far there had been no classes. Charmiana decided to see how on top of the fight Azog was. She sliced a fake low then quikly pulled high and seeing that Azog had gotten away retreated.a bit. "this is not a good time to ask such questins master dwarf..."

[Azog]

Alkorr (my RP character) turned to the dwarf.

"Welcome," he said, "and yes, you may use your axe."

After saying this, he turned to Charmiana. "You have good speed with the blade, but I could shatter that sword in a single blow if you are not careful. It once happened to me." he said, pointing to scar below his eye. "When you attack one with a heavy weapon, you must be wary of this."

Alkorr held his mace with his right hand. He nimbly stepped towards Charmiana, and crouched. He held his left arm behind his back, and brandished the mace in his right.

[ms Greenleaf]

Chazrmiana wasz suddenly glad of hher dance -like motion with a sword... that way she would never need to come heavy blow to heavy blow with him. He was definetly skilled with this weapon, and he seemed lithe, almost like an assasin..."Are you to be the teacher for assasin as well? For trhhat is what I train to be."

Hoping the words had caught him off gaurd she tried to swing at his face but he was ready and dogged

(does yiour tmace
have a wooden end)

[Azog]

(The Mace is Pure metal, although rusty on the handle...)

"I am not training assassins, but long ago I was one." Alkorr replied. He stepped forward, reached out and grasped her right arm with his left. He then planted his foot behing her leg and executed a throwdown maneuver. He was too strong and too fast for her to resist the force or counter-attack, and he dropped her on the ground. She lay dazed for a few seconds.

"That is something you may find useful some day." Alkorr said, steppind forward to help her up.

[ms Greenleaf]

Charmiana relized her opponent thought she was through so she twisted one leg around his and pulled him down moving just be fore he could crush her. he had not exspected this and his weapon went flying she caught it before it killed him (actually she was positive he had fast enough reflexes that if she had not caughtit he would have but she was not willing to test that out.

"I am sorry for in many way s thatr was cheating" and she helped him up. "Another who enjoys hand to hand combat and is an assasin? interesting. oh by the way, do you know when the class for assassins is starting and also I want to talk to you about the skills needed to be an assasin. Forinstance I have drama and word skills where I lack in archery...
