Quidditch Hogwarts v Durmstrang & Koldovstoretz Summer 2022

I do not share the same opinions ooc that Charles has ic

Open

The Koldov boy huffed to himself as he sat on the bench, frustrated at the inability to play at the moment. He knew with his luck he probably would not get a chance to play at all, he did not appreciate that as he wanted the young Russian school to get a chance to prove themselves, something they were not going to get if they only allowed Edward to play from the Koldov team. He knew he was probably annoying the other benched Koldovstoretz and Durmstrang students, but he did not really care at this point. "This is not fair, just because they have more players does not mean they should be able to keep the rest of the Koldov team benched, we should be able to prove that we can actually do something." he muttered to himself angrily at the thought of not even being able to play. The boy was stressed, it was his first actual game since the death of his school mates and he was not happy that he was not even able to play in the game at this point.

Rosella was frustrated that she had been benched, but was also not that disappointed at the same time. She would get her chance to play at some point, the boy sitting beside her was not going to get a chance to play if he kept it up though. "Evgeny, if you do not stop complaining I will make you stop myself," she muttered to him in a harsh whisper. Him complaining about everything was not going to improve anyone's mood and was probably going to anger someone, probably the wrong person, from Durmstrang. Looking back out at the Quidditch pitch, the red haired girl sighed as she watched the teams fly across the field. The girl hoped she would get the chance to play, but at least she was still there to support the rest of them, even if she could not actually do anything herself. Looking back out at the players currently flying around the pitch, Rosella sighed and leaned back slightly, tugging on the sleeves of her uniform. This was going to be a long game, and she was already exhausted yet excited for what was to come.

If the roaring crowd wasn't enough to amp up the Durmstrang Chaser, Valentin's stirring speech definitely did the trick. When their Seeker declared Madhup's confidence extended to their team, bringing a sense of certainty to his allies, the boy's chest puffed. It was about time his narcissistic tendencies paid off in a positive way! But speaking of narcissism, Headmaster Plott called someone else his "favorite Chaser", and that was enough to annoy him. Madhup acted out when irritated. It was the Foulplay Aficionado's turn to feed an aggressive play. He singled someone out, leaned hard into his broom, and came barreling up behind her. @Lavinia Cloven would hear a jeering voice just before impact: "Hello, beautiful!" He tucked his chin, raised his arm, bashed a bicep into her side from an angle that sent her toppling. With a sneer, Mad cupped his mouth and called after the falling witch: "And goodbyyyeee...."

Brutish intentions fell short of expectation. A tut of disappointment was elicited from the Durmstrang player, for he watched the Hogwarts girl get caught by the keeper, @Aly Salinger. With her busy, the Chaser sent a longing look towards the unprotected goals... until Plott was hollering at him for being a bad sport. "But-!" Mad pointed a blaming finger after Lavinia, almost implying that she had clumsily flown right in his path, tossing his arms in exasperated acceptance when told to take a lap. Madhup didn't just relent to the punishment he was so accustomed to: he would do so in style. Both hands braced against the front and back of his broom. He hopped up, planted his boots firmly, and crouched with arms extended for a solid stance. Madhup cheekily broom-surfed the pitch.

As @Evelynn Decipio observed, flight was effortless for the fifth-year, even though he was childish and obnoxiously loud. It was some degree of irony that from the school's name, "Sturm und Drang" translated to "tempest and urge". The Durmstrang Chaser was all temper and impulse, emotion and zest, an incorrigible zeal for life and victory. Granted, the name was also anglicized as "storm and stress", and the boy was a mess of a personality. Yet if he had anything going for him, it was his unshakeable dedication to his team, members present and past. He had spied the infamous Greta Fransson waving her support banner in the stands. When he soared by, he pointed her out, beaming and blowing kisses, holding his palms to his heart. It was a shame they didn't have her any longer. In the past, Mad had referred to Greta as the "valiant Valkyrie who could carry Durmstrang to victory on her strong shoulders". She had been a beast on the pitch. He wanted to beat her record: Lavinia was just the start.

Roleplaying as Durmstrang iNPC Arjan Oberoi

Finding out that he had been benched this game was a kick in the teeth to him. He was far too glorious to sit it out! Without him, Durmstrang would lose! At least, that was his logic. He was the most important player, of course. To make matters worse, Schnell decided to talk to him. Arjan practically growled when he was told to control his temper. You never tell a hothead to calm down or control their temper. "Why don't you try doing your fuckin' job for once before telling me how to do mine?" Arjan cursed at him, bitter about the entire situation. How dare the little pipsqueak?

Yes, there was a very good reason that Arjan was benched. He was not a team player by any means. In fact, it was one of the main reasons that he never got onto the team before recently. He had managed to convince them that he was 'better' now but still, the truth was that he was just as deadly to his own teammates as he was to the others. He was just as volatile as he was before. Benching him was actually the safest option for Durmstrang but he would never agree to that.

Lysander was one of the few that managed to deal with his anger - or break through it, "You better finish this before I get out there. If I'm out there before you do, you've lost," Arjan responded to him, speaking of their challenge. He was confident enough in his own ability that he could play catch up if he was just given the chance. Following the chaser's wink, he noticed the girlfriend in the stadium watching him, "I'll try not to steal her heart from you when she watches me play," He joked, implying everyone just falls in love with him as they watch him do anything - including playing quidditch. He was incredible out there, after all. But it was very much a joke. Whilst he was confident and a flirt, there were a few lines that he did not cross. One was stealing a friend's girl. He had absolutely no intention of that.

Arjan Oberoi - Second-String Beater

STATS:

Stamina: 15
Evasion: 9 + 4 = 13
Strength: 17 + 15% [2.55]* = 19.55 (20 Rounded up)
Wisdom: 4

* From Obnoxiously Strong

BROOM:

Oakshaft 79
Stats: +4 to two stats (Evasion and Accuracy)
Abilities:

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.

Note: For the rules lawyers out there: you are not considered your own ally.

In the role of Beater, if you critically hit with a bludger, instead of doing double-damage you do 2.5x damage. If you critically fail with your bludger attempt to hit, rather than having your bludger randomly target another user (including yourself or an ally) the bludger cannot target you on a critical fail (but it can still target your allies). On a re-target, there is a random roll for target and then a fresh accuracy roll.

ABILITIES:

1. Obnoxiously Strong: Extra 15% Strength
2. The Martial Artist: N/A
3. Spell Spread: N/A
4. Charmer: -1 accuracy to all opponents (Team classed as allies, everyone else is an opponent)

What the hell--... Had they really taken out so many of their players that quickly? Usually Winnie warmed the bench without needing to jump in to play, but if she did it took a few rounds before it was her turn. The girl was stared in shock at the field for a moment before narrowing her eyes in determination. "I'll see you soon, Rori." She nodded to her room mate, hopping up to grab her broom and join her team.

The broom shard collector, the cheater chaser, and the captain. Too many fallen… quidditch players? Quidditchers? Quidders? The latter almost sounded like quitters which was contradictory since the birbs will never quit. Except Aurora, apparently, since she’ll leave the quidditch team after this match and run to the racing team, following her passion, or rather, her boyfriend. But that was not important at that moment. The highlight of the match was that River couldn’t find the snitch. It was a good thing that the international team’s seeker couldn’t find the snitch either. Sometimes she wondered how some people could spot the wiggling little golden meatball on the first try. Did they eat a hundred kilos worth of carrots every single day? Was there some kind of microchip that they planted inside their eyeballs to make their sight sharper? What was the secret? Did they have some kind of magnetic force that could make the snitch fly right to their hands? She didn’t know. Even when she squinted really hard to the point where her eyes almost closed, it was still really hard. She needed more luck than skill itself. A theory was that the snitch flew too far and lost, so those seekers were trying to find something that didn’t even exist. For all she knew, that golden pain in the arse could be in Australia annoying the kangaroos.

But then Winnie’s words snapped her out of her conspiracy theory. The captain was down, so Winnie, as the second stringer, needed to enter the pitch. “GOOD LUCK AND DO NOT DIE!” Aurora screamed at her dorm mate. Must be exciting to play. Though, as always, the girl secretly wished River’d catch the snitch soon, preferably in the next five seconds, so she wouldn’t have to play.
