Quidditch Gryffindor vs Hufflepuff - Fall 2024

┌		┐
	Right, well, time to be productive and help out the other Chasers. Though, Alyssea had to admit she was very rusty. Honestly, her performance was mid—worse than mid, actually, since she only caught it one out of five times and didn't even score. Guess this was something to polish off next training.

Another round of a very nasty snitch escaping our seeker's clutches, scores pouring in on our favour and a dragged out match. While my eyes were steadily noting everything, no matter how much of a lost cause it currently seems to be for the puffs, I still had the adrenaline rush to see this game to the end...and end up with a cold oh-so-definitely. My body sent shivers all over, in hopes of keeping warm, and I ensured warmth was obtained by hooting, cheering, throwing hands, and what-not.

The match's progress as of now is in the dull stretched-out end. It is like a match of chess, only here, the opponent has lost half their team while ours barely lost any. The match is now to be dragged on until the time runs out, or as in this case, the snitch gets caught.

The longer the game dragged on, the harder it got. Aside from physical exhaustion, the morale tended to suffer too over time, even though the odds were increasingly stacked in Gryffindor's favor.

But Hufflepuff had to be commended for staying in the fight. He could not simply hang back and wait for Elsian to catch the snitch, not without Hufflepuff managing to score a goal at least. They still had the lead, but he hadn't managed to widen the margin as much as he'd hoped. Maybe next round, he ought to throw a quaffle at @Elsian Cox's head to make sure he was actually awake and not just flying around blindly...

Landon couldn't help but feel a little hopeless as he watched the game unfold. He wasn't playing, just sitting on the bench, but he knew that he could probably not do any better than the players already on the pitch. He hoped that they would somehow figure things out, but he was going to be happy with the fact that they are scoring as much as they had. Maybe he wouldn't completely lose hope just yet.

He could sense it. Finns temper rising with every minute this got dragged out; or maybe that was just his own frustration that made it seem the other really wanted to throw something at his head that last passing glance he got when they’d flown by each other at high speeds in the rain.

Honestly at this rate he might just let the boy, a perfect excuse to let their other seeker have a go where he was obviously having the worst luck ever- but no…he wasn’t that lazy despite what the other might say…yet.

Ethan glances back at Wren as he mounts his broom once again. A smile tugs at his lips as he gives her a nod. He hovers high in the air. “Thanks, kid,” he calls out, a smirk on his face. “You saved my skin back there. I appreciate it.” With that, he takes to the air, his broomstick soaring into the sky.

Broom: Firebolt (+4 to accuracy)

• In the role of Beater, if you hit an opponent with a bludger the bludger will then ricochet off that user and target a second opponent of choice (must be declared, if not declared the target will be random and can be an ally but not yourself).
• In the role of Beater, if an ALLY dodges a bludger during the round, there is a 20% chance that you catch that bludger with your bat and you send it at a RANDOM enemy target.

Stats:
STA 10 | EVA 7 | STR 15 | WIS 2 | ARC 2 | ACC (10) 14

Abilities:
1. Broken Broomshaft

• Bludger attacks that knock a player off a broom (KOB) made by players with this ability have a 25% chance to also break said player's broom. Bludgering, bludger backbeats, and richochets apply.

2. Calming Presence (Gryffindor team)

• Allies gain a 10% chance to auto-hit on all actions needing an accuracy vs evasion roll. This does not stack.

I kept a lookout for any teammates falling out of the sky. There was no one. There was a rogue bludger I kept a lookout for that too but it didn't head towards me. I glanced at our bench. Our backup chaser and seeker have gotten zero game time. There's nothing really going on. I might as well come off and let the first year take in the atmosphere of playing. The game's pretty much wrapped up and done. Finnegan is just having a field day. All that's left is for our seeker to catch the damn snitch so we can all go back to our warm common rooms.

Oogie audibly groaned when the game was still not over yet. She was convinced that she could have done a better job at spotting the stupid snitch if she had put her mind to it. However she was doing her job and knocking one Hufflepuff out of the air after the other. She had done more of a Beater job than Pax even, which she would be sure to rub in their face if they got too demanding during another Quidditch practice. For now she hoped the snitch got bored as much as she was and would choose to drop itself into Elsian's hands. This game had to find its end somehow, right?

Remaining focused through the chaos, Atlas continued her assault on the Quaffle. Knowing her team needed to gain any semblance of points, she continued to contest the Quaffle while leaving her posts open. She hated each point that was scored on her undefended posts but she swallowed her pride to continue hunting for points.

Able to find an opening enough to grab the quaffle, Atlas sank a quick score before dashing back into her position. A sudden thudding impact glanced over her shoulder. It took Atlas a moment to realize it had been a stray bludger that connected with her. The impact wasn't enough to shake her, but it did serve as a good reminder that Atlas needed to stay vigilant or she would join the slew of fallen teammates. Scanning the pitch, Atlas took a second to catch her breath before shifting her attention back towards the Quaffle. They were in a deficit but she was holding out hope that they might still be able to pull it out.

Abilities:
Fearless
Fear effects such as a dhampir's aura, the ability terrible presence, a lycanothrope's intimidation or certain charms, potions and jinxes that would normally cause a fear effect do not work on you as you are immune to them.

Keepers Catch
10% chance to automatically block an attempt to score a goal as long as the Keeper is in the goal area. If an attempt to score has been blocked through this effect, the Keeper may as a free action hurl the quaffle at the opponent team in an attempt to injure a player of their choice (it would be recovered with a quaffle grab action) and treated like a bludger or pass the quaffle to a team mate. This must be declared by the Keeper if either of these free actions are to be utilized.

Evasive Maneuvers
Harder to hit on average, 10% on auto-dodge chance that anything that targets this wizard automatically misses. This is rolled separately from the attack roll.
