FOIL ROUND 1: FRAY, P. VS. DAWSON

Welcome to the Individual Foil tournament of the second Panem Olympic Games! The fencing strips are located within the Olympic Arena, with stands for spectators traveling from Districts One, Two, Four, and the Capitol to watch the competitors. Television cameras are set up around as well, to broadcast the event to anyone staying home as well as to the other districts who aren't as lucky and competent as you all! Please be sure you stretch and warm up with your coaches before you're called to the starting block, and remember, make your district proud!

The three fencing events (Epee, Sabre, and Foil) are tournaments, which follow brackets. Each match will have its own thread, which will be posted by me. Feel free to roleplay your character fencing their opponent for each touch and then paste the code [*roll range="1-4"] without the asterisk into your post and roll, as you would with a Hunger Games die. This corresponds to the number of points your competitor scored in a row, and will be added to your total. All fencing bouts go to fifteen touches and follow turn order, as a regular fight using the combat system would.

The competitor who reaches fifteen points first wins the bout and moves on to the next round. As the bouts finish, the winners will be recorded here; when all the first round bouts have been completed, the bracket will be updated and the next round will start.

CURRENT SCORE

Pillar Fray: 0

He shook his hair from his eyes and made sure that the lame's zipper cover was flattened down, his cords were plugged in and he looked to the ref, his foil in hand.

It wasn't any time at all before the ref was giving the commands.

"Fencers ready?"

Sail stiffened. He was barely used to Foil. His father had just pushed him into it. He didn't know why he'd said yes. Was that his life flashing before his eyes? Would this be the end?

No, shut up, stupid. You're in the Olympics, not the Hunger Games.

"Yes, Sir!" Sail responded.

Then, they were fencing.

His opponent was good. Really good. Really really good.

Apparently really really really really good, since they struck four touches right off the starting plate.

He sweated under the stupid metal and fabric mask. He hated the control you had to have in foil. What about hacking and slashing each other to bits?

They were like marshmallows at a camp out. The foils were the roasting wands and they were the marshmallows in their cute, fluffy, white uniforms that browned from sweat exertion.

She barely spoke a word. Her demeanor was absolutely storming. A fury of metal and blades and blocks.

At least he managed to get into three touches before she landed another three.

He was sweating hard underneath this mask. She was really running him through his paces.

It was a pattern, going back and forth. They'd each get a couple touches in a row. He was hoping the tides wouldn't turn away from him this time, though.
