Daring to Dream

[Rhodes]

The Autumn King chuckles sinisterly. "Well, of course. Contracts of Dream make it easier, but you're welcome to try here. I encourage it, in fact. Try a small change, see how easy it is."

He looks to Sonnie and Abraham."We certainly can. Now is the best opportinity." He turns to Abraham. "In essence, yes. Your mind knows what your body is like, and replicates your physicality in the dream.... but it is important to remember a mentally proficient individual can also be physically skilled in the dream. It is how you apply those strengths. B7t you are correct, we can utilise the environment as well."

Rhodes looks at Sera, smiling. " Well! If you've done it before, Sera, perhaps you'd care to assist me in a demonstration, hmm?"

He spreads an arm and takes a few paces back into the space.

[Titania]

A roguish smile spread across her face, going from cheek to cheek. "Very well", she said softly, setting her jaw. It was subtle, but it took a lot of effort nonetheless. A bouquet of lilacs emerged from the ground right by Rhodes. She looked at the King, then nodded toward another Spring, barely suppressing a giggle.

I tried Wits + Empathy + Wyrd, even though I should have scoured the dream first, but I'm being practical

[Sonnie Wu]

Sonnie smiled as Titania successfully created her bouquet, "Oh, let me try!"

She stood back and focused her faerie essence on manipulating the dream stuff before her, trying to get it to remold itself into a prop of her choosing. After a moment, a beanbag chair of enormous proportions appeared. It was green, and made of a soft velvety cloth and looked extremely comfortable. It could probably seat several people and leave plenty of elbow room. It was practically a beanbed.

"Yay! I did it!" The Beast excitedly jumped into the air and did a flip into the beanbag, where she quickly made herself comfortable. "C'mon, guys! Plenty of room to join me! We can watch Sera and Sifu duke it out from here!"

[Seraphina]

Mental notes were taken as he spoke. All valuable information to tuck away to expand her knowledge.

And then the smile and the question.

She had done it before, but she had a gut feeling that Rhodes was the more skilled opponent. But, not one to back down, she smiles and nods.

“Sure.” She replies, moving forward. The long dress giving her the illusion of gliding across the floor. “How did you want to do this?” asks the Treasured, already formulating a plan in her mind. A lot had changed since her first Dream Combat. But this was for fun, no survival.

The sudden appearance of the flowers made her smile again. Then the bean bag chair! “Oh that looks comfy Sonnie!” she gushes. And then Abraham’s podium.

Sapphires turn back to Rhodes and she holds her arms out.

[Rhodes]

Rhodes applauds approvingly. "Well done, all of you! Now, the pressure of altering the dream may have seemed simple because this is a wish dream. If you can find things that align with my wish, they are easy to shape and sculpt."

The Flowering looks to his 'opponent' and winks. "As I said before, you can attack physically, relying on muscle memory, or with imagination, using the environment. Sera? Care to demonstrate?" He spreads his arms wide, autumn cloak rippling, waiting.

Yes, he's inviting her to demonstrate an attack. This could go badly....

Notes on Oneiromach are here.

Orianna, If you want to subtract beforehand, Rhodes has a defense of 4 and armour of 2.

[Titania]

It was unexpected and she almost falls from the platform Sir Abe has so masterfully conjured, thankfully, Monkeylady's comfortable couch and her wisps are there to soften the fall.
"Ah, let me try something", with a flick of her fingers, a boxing ring of flowers and autumn leaves spurts from the ground, its four ropes are spun of golden and silvery silk that like a fluid float in the air of the library, "This is amazing. Win for us Lady Sera!", she cheers for their champion.

[Sonnie Wu]

Sonja lay on her stomach on the giant beanbag chair, feet in the air, head supported by her hands and elbows, and she cheered for Seraphina as well. "Yeah! Win one for the Spring Court! Woo woo woo!" Her long monkey tail pumped in the air like a fist.

"Ding ding! Round one! Fight!"

[Seraphina]

Smiles were offered to Titania and Sonnie, the encouragement was nice. And the boxing ring? A cool touch.

But this was just for fun, just for a demonstration. And technically, she’d only done this once. But she remembers.

The smile remained as she looked to Rhodes, her Mantle flaring as petals fell and were uplifted in the breeze.

The Treasured drops to one knee, her eyes not leaving the Autumn King as the petals began to form and build around her knuckles. The gilded edges catching the light and having a more metallic look to them. These weren’t the beautiful petals they once were, these were hardened and ready to inflict pain.

What few people knew about Sera was she trained to fight.
