         [New Stuff]

         [Fireday        , Fertility week, Storm 
Season, 1625, Genertela, Glorantha]

         [Time: 9:56 pm]

            Leorik nods to his champion and backs 
up a bit more.  The tuskriders have selected 
their own champion.  He dismounts and the group 
form a half moon circle around the fighting area 
maybe 30 feet around.  At least 12 form the half 
moon while the others sit on their tuskriders and 
watch from 10-15 feet behind that group.

            The party looks to Rocky to see if he 
will do as he planned before but the Dwarf just 
holds his arbalest and watches the dark areas not 
with tuskriders n case some sneak up.

            When the Elf asks for a group member 
to step up as second, Razgor lifts his pike and 
stands straight.  He looks around and waits a 
second to see if any of the other group members step forward.


            When no one reacts soon, "Elf, I will 
guard your back and be second to guard this 
forest from the riders when needed."

  The elf champion stands a foot taller than the 
tuskrider but is about 80 pounds smaller. He 
carries a small short sword.  “I am Terron son of Slavon.  We fight for honor.”

            The tuskrider, half human and half 
troll, snorts. “I am who cares son of buzz off and die!”

            The two circle each other for 20 or 
so seconds and the Elf does not want to strike 
first so holds off.  Then the tuskrider who holds 
a longspear stabs.  The Elf sidesteps and the blow misses.

            The Elf finally swings and misses as 
well.  The tusk, shortened from tuskrider, also stabs but misses.

            Varen whispers to Jaren and some can 
hear it.  He doesn’t realize elves have keen 
hearing as well.  “If this goes bad maybe we can 
sneak into forest and take our chances?”

            Jaren shakes his head, “you'd be cut 
down before you hit the tree line by arrows.”

            Another round of both opponents missing each other.

            The Elf almost misses the tusks shoulder.

            But the tusk's longspear stabs the 
elf in the chest doing a massive hit. The elf 
staggers back gasping for air and coughing up 
blood.  Then he falls to his knees and collapses.

            Razgar steps forward with pike up 
forcing the tusk to move back.  He checks the elf and finds he is dead.

            Leorik waves a hand and the other elf 
bodyguard drags the elf body out of the circle.

            The tusks all snort in triumph.  The 
tusk warrior sorts and cleans his spear from the 
elf's blood and lung tissue  Razgar sees him smile and stare at the second.

            “Ready or do you need to pray to your 
gods?”  The tusks asks Razgar who is now 
obligated to fight for the honor of the party and elves.

         GM: Actions? Comments?

             Next Update: Thur/Fri/SaT?

         GM:  Ok.  That was a quick fight. ;) 2.5 
rounds? The elf did get close on each roll in 
3-5% but off.  The tusk got a good hit.  I will 
assume Razgar will not back off?  We do have a 
hurricane coming wed/thur but in panhandle I'm on 
east coast so we may get rain but its possible we 
may lose power.  I'm not worried about wind but 
rain and power could be a problem.  So if this 
happens it may be delayed till next week.  If not 
I can do it thur/fri or sat.  Wout if you need backup via spells let me know.

Note: as of now Monday 3pm est websiteis a bit 
wonky has not updated to the correct file.
So this should be fine for reading.
