Delnir laughs and says; "No, dinner first and then duel. Exercise a little to burn bit calories. I think we still have the practice weapons and training vests stored in attic, I go get them ready. What would be your weapon of choice Vanessë? Rapier, short sword or longsword? Spear? We could have match with bows and then blades, as both arts are traditional elven martial arts. The training gear may not be fancy what may be in courts but they do their job."<br/><br/>Once Vanessë tells desired weapon, Delnir finishes fairly quick his dinner and goes attic get vests and weapons. Erin then quietly eats and drinks normally, bit confused what's going on but he gladly takes challenge if Vanessë really wants test his skills. As he is fairly proud of his skills. Delnir gets old training bow for Vanessë while Erin uses his present bow what he uses in travels as they are closely similar. Erin takes two short blunt iron short sword as his close combat weapon of choice, clearly favoring dual bladed style.<br/><br/>In backyard of the house there is firing range for archery, pair of targets close in normal range (100'ft) and two others farther away (300'ft) and Delnir arranges ten arrows to their both quivers and says; "Scoring is based on how close you get to middle. First five to normal firing range and remaining shots to farthest targets. The one who score highest wins." Erin held his longbow ready and took rightmost post to fire from. Delnir made the counts; "Now aim.....permission to fire by your own pace starts now!"<br/><br/>Erin starts firing on five arrows in steady but fast pace towards first target, trying hit closely to middle as he can. He fires near perfect shots, one arrow dead center and another arrow piercing right through the earlier arrow! Only one arrow went to white edge of the target. In long shots though he fired pretty close only outermost white area on the board, only one arrow closer to middle.<br/><br/><em>OOC: Martial contest time! Now in archery first ranged number in projectile is normal shooting range (longbow's case 150'ft), so it's rolled normally. Where as past 150'ft (max 600'ft for longbow), are rolled with disadvantage. So first short range 5 rolls, second 10 rolls (pick worst between pairs). Overall score is measured in attack rolls themselves (there is no AC for target dummies), who rolls most scores total (combining short and long scores) is the overall victor of archery contest.</em><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Short range rolls</div><div class="spoiler_body">18 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131286), 22 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131285), 25 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131284), 15 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131283), 25 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131282) = 105, 2 nat 20<br/></div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Long range rolls</div><div class="spoiler_body">18 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131296), <del>25</del> (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131295), <del>24</del> (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131294), 14 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131293), <del>13</del> (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131292), 9 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131291), <del>19</del> (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131290), 9 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131289), <del>24</del> (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131288), 11 (https://elliquiy.com/forums/dicebot.php?r=131287) = 61<br/></div></div>
