Quidditch Slytherin v Ravenclaw - Fall 2023

Only when Jorah hit the ground did Ebony wake up and realise for the past few minutes she was dreaming — she wasn’t used to starting on the field instead of being on the bench, now that Damion, the previous beater had left the team. Ebony shook herself awake and reminded herself to focus. This was not practice; it’s a game, against Slytherin no less.

No applicable actions this round.



The second round of actions would kick off with two vets going after the Quaffle and although Dan would give it his all, Cecily's speed and accuracy would win the day. However, as the Ravenclaw captain went to score, another story would unfold. Koko had shaken off any jitters and was in perfect form as she blocked the first three scoring attempts, but Cecily would not go down quietly and would be victorious in the final two attempts. Another 20 points for Ravenclaw!




While Dan was off chasing Quaffle, Ayla of team Ravenclaw would remain laser focused on finding the Snitch and boy did her efforts pay off! Within a moment her eyes would land on the golden orb and she didn't waste a second jumping off after it, but maybe the Snitch proved to be too distracting as another crack from the Beater bat ripped through the air.




The terrors of the sky would quickly descend on more victims as the Beaters started to swing their bats. Erin's reign of destruction would continue as she expertly knocked out two more flyers, but team Ravenclaw had a deadly plan of their own. Flying and swinging in unison, Rebecca and Ebony crushed a Bludger towards Dan. The Seeker was doomed if not for the valiant efforts of Cash, who sacrificed themself to keep Dan in the air for a little longer. Casualties would mount on both sides, but who would prevail?



While some resorted to bats and bludgers, Mellani and Lavinia would just set themselves on a crash course against their targets. Although Lavinia sought to de-broom Dan, Mellani would reach her first and with a mighty crash Lavinia would fall. However, she was not slick enough to avoid the watchful eyes of the referee. "Mellani! Penalty lap for Blatching!" The magical enhanced voice boomed through the air.

Outcome

- Dan and Cecily go against each other for Quaffle grabs. Cecily wins all 5 attempts
- Koko blocks 3 scoring attempts
- Cecily scores 20 points for team Ravenclaw
- Ayla critically succeeds her search for the Snitch
- Erin successfully Bludgers Cecily and it ricochets and hits Ayla. Both are KOB
- Rebecca and Ebony attempt a Dopplebeater Defense against Dan, but Cash defends him. The maneuver is successful against Cash and they are KOB.
- Aly attempts to Blatch Erin. Erin evades. Aly must take penalty lap.
- Mellani attempts to Blatch Lavinia and Lavinia attempts to Blatch Dan. Mellani wins the initiative roll and successfully Blatches Lavinia. Lavinia is KOB and cannot perform her Blatch attempt. Mellani must take a penalty lap in the following round.

It was crazy, quidditch was way more intense than I had expected. This one ball called the “bludger” was particularly terrifying. But one thing that I liked was just how good our seeker was, I hoped to be really good one day too. It was only in the first round, but our team seemed to be doing really well. Ayla, our seeker, has found the snitch, that seemed good. While she did not catch it, we still got a point! Ravenclaw was winning 60-0.

Quidditch-Slytherin v. Ravenclaw

The game was currently not in Slytherin’s favour as the Ravenclaw team was ahead by sixty points. However, Tristan, as he sat on the bench, believed it was possible for the tides to turn. After all, one snitch catch could bring them to a win. With being in the beginning of the game, anything could happen.

Slytherin had not made a single score yet but Ravenclaw was already at 60 points. Beatrice chewed on the inside of her cheek as she looked up to the players. This was not going too good and she was hoping the next round would turn in their favor.
Moving in her seat, Beatrice took a quick look at the benched teammates sitting on the same bench. Mari Alves sat there too, a girl she had met on the train this year. Giving her a quick smile, Bea turned to the fellow Slytherin before turning her attention back to the game.

The game was going well until the moment Ravenclaw started to score, from then on everything started to go wrong, Slytherin was losing 60-0, Mari couldn't deny that it was an exciting match and she had already gotten up about 10 times, but it wasn't going well.
Mari had by no means given up hope of victory, with the Slytherin hoping that she would still be victorious, and Mari then decided to turn to the side, noticing her classmates on the bench and how they were doing and seeing Bea, a girl she knew at school. train that year smiling at her, Mari nods slightly giving a small smile as she taps her fingers on the chair due to the nervousness of the game

Another round of doing hardly anything. For once, this was a good sign. Bodies had fallen from the sky, but the large majority had been wearing blue instead of green.

That was until he heard the very loud crack of two bats from both Ravenclaw beaters, and a bludger rocketed towards Dan at a speed that he could hardly imagine coming from two young underclassmen. Before Avery could even exhale, Cash had dove right in to defend Dan. It was not enough time for them to re-direct the blow, and the upperclassman who had taught him to fly tumbled from their broom.

"Cash!! Are you okay??" he called out, and urged his own broom into a deep dive, but Cash's fall had been too sudden and too steep, and she didn't seem to be reacting after that hard hit from the bludger. His own broom handle had almost hit the grass before he had to turn it back up.

Ravenclaw had to pay for this! With a look of determination on his small face, he turned back to towards the game.

Percival looked towards the sky with a small frown. Lost were his thoughts trapped inside and ever current of negative emotions. He was sure that he probably looked as if he could kill someone. As if his narrowed eyes could be used as blades against those who irate him. Percival graded his teeth together grinding away like a mortar and pestle focused up on the sky and no one else. When he watched their teammate fall from the sky it felt like lady luck had blown soft air unto his face. Percival stood up from the bench setting for skies. Giving Avery a rather begrudging look as he took his position.

1. 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).

2. 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.

Things did not seem to be turning around. They had scored another twenty points, but now, half the Ravenclaw team had been knocked out of the sky. Watching her new teammates drop one by one, Renelle winced. Oh, this was not looking good. Of course, it was just her luck that in her first Quidditch match, her house would do so badly.

Merlin's beard, this is not going well. Five Team Ravenclaw players were down, bodies crumpled on the field below, likely to be carted off to the Hospital Wing - including Aly's captains and friends, Cecily and Lavinia, leaving Aly the lone Ravenclaw Chaser remaining on the field.

In her first game as a Chaser, she was the only one left standing.

On the opposing team, only one player had been knocked from their perch atop a broomstick, and Aly was determined to fix that problem. Gritting her teeth, seeing the scarlet of Gryffindor despite the emerald robes of her opponents, the fifth-year dove towards the blonde Slytherin girl who had unseated Jorah from his broom. Forget strategy - this was revenge.

But the older snake was just slightly too nimble for her, and not only did she dodge Aly's attack, the ref whistled at her for cheating. Muttering curses under her breath - and not the kind they taught in Defence Against the Dark Arts - Aly turned her Silver Arrow towards the edge of the field, then shot off like an arrow herself.

The sooner this is over, the sooner I'm back in the game.
