The young girl smiled as the duelists filtered into the room. It was unfavorable indeed; Denise would have preferred Ebony Vetra to duel acquaintances her age and had to feel the horror of the extreme unfair pairings herself.
She and @Avery Gray, a 2nd year, decided to host a duelling tournament. She never spoke to Gray except for familiar clubs, but when she heard of an opportunity to co-moderate a duelling match, she was not able to just walk away.
We should have just restricted all this to a certain year, Denise thought. But those were the people they were able to get. Indeed, with Ebony Vetra known to her beater poweress, Aurelia Valentine for her... um... weird cat that she would rather not speak about, and Silas Norwood, well, he's just weird.
At least Fawkes Chaos seemed fairly normal, and was a duelling captain herself, but this odd combination made Denise feel at unease.
"Welcome, everyone! Whatever if this is your first duel or if you have duelled many times, I am glad to have you here."
She took a deep breath, "Everyone, please position yourselves. I'm assuming you are well-versed with the duelling rulebook..."
"And, three..."
"...two..."
"...one..."
"You may begin."
Denise smirked as she thought, Well, let's see what chaos is next.

_ | Hogwarts prompts people to do strange things. Ebony Vetra had never duelled before in her five years at the wizarding school, and she found herself — strangely — stepping into the Duelling Room for the very first time. It was strange, for the brunette had no clue whatsoever about what she was doing here and why she was doing it. For the fun, she supposed, the amusement of… blasting fellow students with potentially life threatening spells. Though, her incompetence in casting such spells might slightly hinder her ability to entertain herself with them. It was strange, for one only relies on the wand. She had become so accustomed to her fingers curling around the handle of her beater’s bat that grasping her wand and waving it so aggressively felt almost foreign — ironically, for she was a pure-blood witch. How preposterous that there was no bat here for her to whack metal balls at children with. There existed only magic, though that admittedly did render duelling more interesting. As the participants walked into position, Denise provided a brief welcoming speech. So, the Hufflepuff girl was the referee — the moderator. How the tables have turned; where Ebony had previously refereed for Denise during an unofficial Quidditch match, she was now at the mercy of the younger girl’s eye and her commentary. She wondered how much cheating she could get away with. Surveying her opponents and her teammate, it became apparent instantaneously that they could not be older than third year. She was truly in the presence of a bunch of children, and it would certainly be disgraceful to fall in defeat to students who stood a whole head shorter than her. Her partner was a boy with long dark locks (@Silas Norwood), eyes painted a dark shade that rivalled Ebony’s own. He appeared somewhat familiar — one of those faces that had come and gone several times — but she struggled to put a name to the individual. Perhaps from Quidditch, though if so, he had failed to make any remarkable impression. The brunette nodded to him in greeting. Stood opposing her were @Aurelia Valentine — an… interestingly dramatic character whom she had met in the Boathouse under rather strange circumstances — and a younger Ravenclaw girl (@Fawkes Chaos) whom Ebony failed to recognise. “We’re going to destroy them,” she said, turning towards her partner and offering a small rare smile that appeared more akin to a grimace. Sports were one of the few phenomena that allowed the more aggressively competitive side of her to surface, where she normally pretended not to have a care in the world for such competition. On sporting ground — whether it be on the Quidditch pitch or now, on the duelling piste — was where the tip of the iceberg allowed itself to slightly be revealed. “I’m assuming you are well-versed with the duelling rulebook.” Ebony was, in fact, not. She would just roll with it, she supposed. Drawing her wand from its holster and positioning herself in a stance that only a non-duellist would take, she considered simply throwing a punch to knock her opponents out. |

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━sta 06|eva 05| str 03| wis 08| arc 07| acc 06━━━━━━Prodigal Astronomy Learner━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Fawkes walked into the club feeling excited to duel. Moderating a duel was entertaining sure, but sometimes, it was better to participate in an actual duel. Not to mention the more dueling practice the better. To hone in on her skills the best was was always going to be to practice.
Her teammate was a hufflepuff girl. Fawkes recognised her. Aurelia Valentine. She was on the badgers dueling team. Having someone who knows how to duel as a team mate is always a positive in unofficial duels since you never know who you'd get paired with. She waved slightly before turning to see the opposing team.
Her blood ran cold as she recognised the other Ravenclaw. Ebony Vetra was one of the Ravenclaw beaters. While Fawkes herself wasn't the biggest quidditch fan, she had watched the games. Ebony was nothing short of frightening during those matches so the duel against her was actually scary. Not to mention she was a 5th year. She shook her head. Now was not the time to get stuck in her thoughts she had to focus.
She looked at the other person on the other team. A slytherin boy seemingly also a first year whom she hadn't ever met. Well at least it wasn't another 5th year. As she listened to their moderator's speech about the rulebook, she had in fact gone through it cover to cover. She needed to after all. She took a breath and got ready to cast her spell.Action: As stratagised

An Unusual Duel
Dropping the weighty enchanted leather satchel on one of the benches, Aurelia Valentine climbs the piste with a flourish of complete indifference—something she wields as a shield. Only here to learn, to scurry in search of an extra parchment to scribble her notes in. The Hufflepuff girl bothers not to exercise the social expectation of greeting every student which joined the duel nor the students which orchestrated the entire thing. Her presence is there before them, that is adequate.
Duelling is such a serious business to the Valentine girl. She intends to flourish and prosper in the aforementioned sport; being that the girl wholeheartedly believes that it is only appropriate to pay for what she owe to herself, and to the world—the world she barges in to prove herself capable to be called a proper witch.
It is a relief to her little heart to be partnered with the Ravenclaw Duelling Captain, however. Her knowledge in duelling can be lethal if utilised correctly. Suppose that Chaos can be consulted with during the duel, it will feel like she is partnered up with the duelling rulebook itself. Brandishing her dark walnut wand, her deep brown eyes digest the surroundings with a quick glancing around, ready to fight.

An Unusual Duel
It was about time that Silas participate in a more formal duel. His first year at Hogwarts was rapidly approaching its end, and yet this was the first traditionally moderated duel that he was going to be part of. It still wasn’t a fully official one — he had made it onto the Quidditch team and had played his first match in May, so he already had a sport and didn’t plan to switch to duelling any time soon — but it nevertheless had a moderator, a partner for him, and two opponents, so that was probably as close as he was going to get.
He had some interest in duelling — it was a sport and violent, so what wasn’t to like — but, unlike the moderator’s assumption and some of the others present, he had absolutely no clue what the rules were. Did it really matter? He had never cared for rules anyway. They were just annoying obstacles that he preferred to take as suggestions of what to do. Fortunately for those present at this duel, Silas not knowing the rules meant that he couldn’t be deliberately trying to break them. If that occurred, it would only be by chance.
Despite that, he did actually kind of want to learn how to duel. Worst come to worst, he could always just resort to physical violence (which, if he had to guess, was probably against the rules), but spellcasting was broadening his horizons in a completely new way, opening opportunities for him that were previously unimaginable. The chaos he could now cause using magic was surely more than ever before. He just had to continue learning how to harness it and figuring out what and who he could use it against — and he could do that through practise. “We’re going to destroy them,” said Silas’s teammate. A cocky smirk had already appeared on his face. “Oh, I do agree,” he drawled, and lifted his wand.

It was really boring being a duelling moderator, at least for now, and rather disgusting as well, in her opinion, as she watched the lack of chaos unfold.
Aurelia Valentine was on it, casting the now unfortunate Silas Norwood the Course of the Bogies, or Mucus Ad Nauseam, and she had to see Silas uncontrollably sneezing. Well, sneezing isn't bad, and Denise does hope Norwood at least has the decency to cover his mouth.
To her disgusted horror, she saw Norwood now having a runny nose, with its yellowish-green mucus running uncontrollably out of Norwood's nose.
I should have brought a box of tissues, well, it definitely needs much more than one box, Denise sighed in disgust.
"Valentine starts strong with the Curse of the Bogies, leaving to Norwood's umm... snotty dilemma. I'll send Norwood to the infirmary soon after the duel if his umm... situation doesn't subside."
Unlike Valentine's confidence, Fawkes Chaos looked rather nervously at Ebony Vetra, failing to cast her spell Tarantallegra at Norwood due to Vetra's intimidating appearance. Indeed, Denise had to face her intimidation herself during an unofficial Quidditch match and was also rather nervous and scared; it clearly takes a friend or foe to be immune.
The spell is for Norwood, not Vetra, for god's sake. Why the lack of action? She was really hoping to see some blood spill, a little hit and excitement, not this pure boredom.
Indeed, you can't be good at everything clearly, as Ebony Vetra attempted a complex fourth-year spell, Impedimenta, on Valentine. Valentine was already on it, evading with extreme ease. She really did hope that Vetra would not be punching. Clearly, while she is unable to use her strength, it was rather intimidating indeed.
"Chaos misses a spell on Norwood while Vetra misses hers on Valentine. Look at Valentine go, evading with ease. It looks like Valentine truly prepared herself for this duel!"
Norwood decided to attempt a harder spell, Petrificus Totalus on Chaos, which was rather interesting, and while he did succeed, clearly, all that energy and focus allowed Chaos to evade as well.
Denise decided that maybe she shouldn't comment. She should have brought another person with her, an aide perhaps, and really did hope Norwood at least had the dignity to clean up after himself.

An Unusual Duel
Well, that had not exactly gone according to plan. The moderator barely even had the chance to indicate that the round had begun when Silas was hit by a spell, immediately feeling himself become overwhelmed by mucus. His nose quickly filled, and he was forced to come to the sudden realisation that he might not be fully prepared for this compared to the other students. They were older or at least likely had more practice than him, given that he was largely neglectful towards his schoolwork and only rarely practised a handful of spells for his own purposes.
Yet, despite that, his casting ability was better than one might assume. He attempted a spell that, honestly, was well above his expected skill level, and somehow managed to succeed at it, the spell’s light shooting out of his wand. The resultant pride, though, was quelled by him missing his target. Unfortunately for him, the violent sneezes had begun in full force, and his aim was thrown off when he lifted his hand to his face. He grimaced as he attempted to cover his face, though it was hard to focus and keep his eyes open and stay vaguely composed while he was actively fighting his own body. This was… less than pleasant.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━sta 06|eva 05| str 03| wis 08| arc 07| acc 06━━━━━━Prodigal Astronomy Learner━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━As soon as the duel started, Fawkes fired off her spell at Silas. However she made the mistake of looking at Ebony during her cast. She paused looking at her as she felt a wave of unease creep up her spine. She was facing a 5th year. One of the scariest on their Quidditch team as well. She wasn't confident for this duel. Her other ones? They were fine, it was between the lower years. But playing against a 5th year was something else all together.
She shook her head. She had to get her head back in the game. As she looked up she saw a spell heading right towards her. She was narrowly able to dodge the spell coming her way. She brushed it off before checking to see what else had happened.
Her team-mate, Aurelia, had successfully landed a hit on Silas. Fawkes did a silent cheer that atleast one of their spells hit. Aurelia was also able to dodge the spell sent her way by Ebony which was quite frankly even more impressive. Especially since Fawkes herself had frozen at the sight of her.
She got ready to cast her next spell. Stance steady, wand raised and new found confidence to cast. She began to say the words.
Action: as stratagised.

_ | The girl did not know what she had expected. The duel was already off to a horrible start by her standards, with her teammate — Norwood, if she had heard Denise correctly? — instantly being hit by a spell. The Curse of the Bogies, a first year spell, if her memory served her correctly. Her recollections of the spells that had been learnt in first year were blurry at best, the most basic flipendo being the only one that she could recall on the spot, and the existence of one that could cause such damaging effects had completely evaded her mind. Damaging it was, for the poor boy now found himself in a pool of mucus, snot, and uncontrollable sneezing. She certainly hadn’t expected herself to be able to cast the Impediment Jinx. Out of practice, lacking natural spellcasting prowess, and not the most hardworking soul at all, it was a surprise that the spell had even successfully been cast. A success it was — and the rush of adrenaline that came with directing her wand toward its target almost rivalled that of hitting a bludger (not really, for nothing could) — but Ebony’s aim was rather awry and Aurelia was able to nimbly dart out of the way. Out of the corner of her eye, she glimpsed a missed spell from the boy beside her. A decent attempt, considering the curse that he was plagued by. |

An Unusual Duel
A familiar shaft of light the colour of turquoise tears the air in Aurelia's direction which, fortunately, instantaneously catches her line of periphery. The Impediment Jinx. Whatever is people's obsession with slowing the badger's movement down? Making a mistake of catching it before, evidenced by her previous official duel, the said spell will never take her by surprise. After a dodge to the left, she casts the Curse of the Bogies spell to the Norwood boy's direction with a grit in her teeth and a painful grip to the handle of her black walnut wand. A successful cast that her little heart lurches in her chest. The effect is immediate; the yellowish-green snot running steadily out of his nose, the colour contrasting his skin colour and his dark robes.
The young Valentine girl snaps her head to the older Ravenclaw girl, Ebony Vetra—the action capriciously done she almost had a whiplash. She stumbled upon the aforementioned Ravenclaw in the Boathouse before, regarding to her black walnut wand too. The jinx came from her direction. How can Aurelia not recognise her the first time, is beyond her. However, the surge of fear that comes with existing in the vicinity of her presence is all too ubiquitous that one would be acquainted to it first before the actual person.
Chaos missed her target. The young badger is not at all disappointed, her mind already sketching the outcome of the next round.
