The circle is prepared one last time. Sawdust is splashed over gravel and the lightly constructed cane swords are presented to the two contestants.
Once the two Kindred are ready, Stax formally leads them into the circle. He will bow to both and then retreat across the cordon where he encourages the others to gather and watch.
MELEE DUELS
Characters are given enough Vitae to replenish their health.
No Discipline use allowed.
Both contestants are given sufficient Blood to heal any damage they may have sustained.
The wooden swords are of a light construction, granting a +2B bonus to Weaponry rolls. However, they are particularly flimsy and if an e-sux (5+ successes) are achieved on a roll, the weapon will shatter in a profusion of woody shards. A shattered sword offers no Equipment Bonus.
Swords are not replaced till the end of the match.
You may take penalties if you wish to reflect your character pulling their blows.
Duels are ended when one of the contestants starts taking Lethal damage, leaves the combat arena or else yields to their opponent.
Baron Nicholas is no longer smiling, not as he faces down Twist and the incredible strength of her Beast. He doesn't speak either, preferring to focus his energies on not embarrassing himself after coming so far. He moves stiffly, offers Twist a respectful bow and then falls into his stance. Yet despite his best efforts, the mental confrontation has certainly put him off his game.
