Quaffle And (Dis)order: A Friendly Skirmish

Maria had better things to do. She could be playing bass. She could be putting on makeup. She could be brooding around the fairgrounds looking for trouble. She could be writing dark moody poetry in her hammock. She could be avoiding all of her roommates. Was she doing any of that at this moment? No. No, she wasn’t. She could be practicing for the upcoming race. She could be testing some maneuver or other. Was she even doing that? No. No, that would be more useful than what she was doing now.
For whatever reason, she let herself get talked into playing quidditch, probably because Kiyoshi asked nicely or something. He wasn’t even playing, the jerk. Everyone seemed far more familiar with this whole game. Could she cast and burn people to the ground? She wasn’t even sure if she was allowed to use magic, which kind of defeated the whole purpose of being a witch she continued to complain. There isn’t even a finish line or obstacles. Due to perhaps her unfamiliarity with the game, she was tasked with rescuing her compatriots should they be in danger. Fine by her, but she wasn’t sure how they were going to be able to fit on her broom, Maria liked her space.
So lost in her own thoughts she forgot she was actually supposed to play in this game. Right under her nose as she watched her teammate Yami. That sweet kind of scary older student who helped her go shopping. Down he went and her heart did sink a little bit. Poor guy. Oh, right. She was supposed to be the one to prevent that! Time to lock in, Maria! Yami may be a goner but that would, maybe, be the last one on her watch! Get it, girl!

It was a wreck. Just like his relationship. Ginyami should have guessed as much.
Everything was suddenly going so wrong so fast. The Japanese seventh year knew very well that cheating was just as much a part of the game as anything else - especially in a sport as ridiculous as this one, with iron balls flying at people's heads and games that never ended until a tiny golden target worth so absurd an amount of points so that nothing else seemed to matter was caught. However, he was usually the one doing the cheating; not the one being cheated against.
When he set his sights on a girl on the Hogwarts team (Evelynn Decipio), intending to distract her by blatching her, he himself was distracted by his goals as he, instead, ended up the one being blatched. He only realized what was happening after he was falling and he heard the referee calling out someone named Beckett for blatching. At least that Beckett wouldn't have managed to get away scott-free with his crimes, but that was hardly Ginyami's problem just then. Worse yet than the fact that he collided so hard with his aggressor that he fell off his broom was the fact that no one was even near enough to catch him on their own broom. Not that he deserved it. Perhaps this was fate.
Sorry, Sara, he thought with a sad smile, his searching, narrow eyes gazing upward as it took them less than a fraction of a second to find who they always naturally seemed to seek out and home in on. You asked me to stay safe...and I couldn't even do that much. Hopefully...you'll be more successful at it than I was...
And with the ground flying up at him at a nasty speed, suddenly everything went dark.

Reducio- In the role of Keeper when you attempt to block your goal, if your opponent somehow has advantage on attempting to score a goal, that is negated (they only have their normal single roll against you).
- In the role of Keeper a critical success on an attempt to block a goal not only means that the Keeper caught the quaffle but they have also successfully passed the quaffle (without a chance of interception) to an allied target of their choice. A critical failure in this case cannot happen for a Keeper, they get to re-roll the attempt to block.
Note: Critical failure and critical success chances can be expanded with certain abilities and skills.
- In the role of Keeper, if the Keeper effectively blocks an attempt to score rather than obtain possession of the quaffle they can kick the quaffle at the user who attempted to score. This must be declared at the time actions are submitted. This would have damage like a bludger using an accuracy roll to hit and the user's strength score to determine the amount of damage done. If the quaffle hits or misses the target, a quafflegrab the next round would be necessary to determine which team has possession of the quaffle again.

As Akihiko flew up into the sky, he looked down on his teammates curiously. He was confident in…most of them. Most were his teammates for official games, and he trusted them fully. But there were some wildcards among them, such as one of the chasers. Akihiko knew her to be a broomracer, although it wasn’t something he had ever looked into.
In a moment of distraction, he felt one of the Hogwarts kids stick him with an elbow, veering him off course and completely disrupting his careful flow he always settled into for Quidditch matches. He felt a flash of anger, but saw no benefit in retaliating.
The quaffles were exchanged, thrown and blocked throughout the field. He wasn’t sure who had scored and who had not, but it also wasn’t his job to know that. As he continued to search the field for the tell-tale golden glint of the snitch, he noticed the usual violence of the game happening below.
A bludger came souring through the sky at him, determined to reach him as Akihiko realized he wouldn’t have time to dodge out of the way. Luckily, the older beater Bakugo-senpai flew in front, his own bat swinging toward the bludger but failing to connect. Unfortunately, the beater took a hit to the shoulder. The bludger swerved out of the way, searching for a new target.
Before the older beater would have a chance to react, a second bludger would fly at him. This one knocked him straight off his broom, ending his run for the game. Akihiko watched helplessly as the beater rocketed toward the ground. Luckily, he saw that a bludger from Mahoutokoro’s team had Percival flying off his own broom.
As Midorimori-senpai soared out of his post near the goals, a younger Hogwarts student flew at him, quickly knocking him off his broom. That's all it took for Akihiko to realize just how the Hogwarts team planned to play. Dirtily, and bloodily.
If that’s what they wanted, that was what they would get.

Note: The new target still gets their normal dodge attempt. This is not considered to be an auto-dodge, in fact this roll is done before any accuracy rolls are done.

As the match kicked off, Aly turned to one of the younger kids who had joined her on the Hogwarts bench. Though she didn't know his name @Callum Alistair, he seemed to be quite young, though small might not have been the word she'd have used to describe him; the seventh-year was quite sure that if they had been standing rather than sitting, the lanky kid would have bested her in height. Aly being frustrated at being shorter than first- and second-years was not a new feeling, though. 'Twas quite common.
Banner made by the wonderful @Evelynn Decipio.
Feel free to interact!
She tried to engage him in conversation about strategy, taking on an almost mentoring tone of voice as she herself had quite a bit of experience in the field (having served as Ravenclaw's Quidditch co-captain for the last six months): "So, what do you think Mahoutokouro is going to do with their first play? Personally, I think..." But she trailed off as she realised that the young boy seemed quite disinterested in discussing any strategic maneouvres or guesses with her, instead staring out at the pitch and muttering his own commentary.
Aly sighed. Kids these days.
And so, giving up on strategy talk, the Ravenclaw turned her own gaze to the match as well, watching as her new co-captain, @Aston Beckett, who was her school-year team's second-string Beater, blatched the Mahoutokouro Keeper, who was probably about Aly's age and quite a bit bigger than Aston. She hooted a congratulatory cheer, clapping her hands together; though the boy had just joined the Ravenclaw team and then quickly been chosen as her co-captain, he was already clearly embodying the Ravenclaw spirit of "cheat your arse off". Unfortunately, the ref spotted him and forced him off on a penalty lap, and Aly showed her displeasure at the call by making a cutting gesture in the ref's direction: an absolutely ill-mannered, quite rude thumbs-down. Aston would have to get better at blatching unnoticed, and quickly, if he wanted to avoid future laps around the stadium as would-be punishments.
Also, the Hogwarts team's other Beater had been saved by another of Aly's teammates from the eagle grouping. Aly turned her thumb right-side up to shoot a "good job" gesture at @Avis Greymond, even as she cast an annoyed glance at the little eagle's new passenger. She'd never quite liked @Percival Rainwood, from their initial meeting in Potions class to the multiple times they'd gone up against each other on the Quidditch pitch. She had to admit he was a killer Beater, but also an insufferable know-it-all. Still, in this situation, she supposed that keeping him alive was better than losing him. For now.

As the boy looked down at the extra bat he couldn't help but chuckle to himself. It seemed so stupid when his teammate had given him the extra bat to use. Something he had never even heard before, but as he glanced towards the ref it seemed that they did not consider what he was about to do illegal. Which he had thought for a fleeting moment. It was difficult, that he could admit. Trying to fly while holding two bats.
Percival could not help the grin that slowly wormed it's way across his face as he watched the bludger he hit sail into an unsuspecting rival. Surprisingly despite the difficulties of double wielding it seemed he was hitting his targets. A laugh tumbled from his mouth as he flew through the air. The wind rushed against his hair. Tossiling it madly.
Though on his last hit he watched the bludger sail away from a boy with dark-hair. His smile would slowly fall from his face his brows furrowing. Staring at the boy with a confused look. Just as the bludger the other boy had cracked slammed straight into him. Percival felt the broom underneath him disappear as his breath caught in his chest. Falling through the air before being grabbed harshly back upward. Onto another girls broom.
Blood dribbled from his nose in riblets, flowing down into his agape lips. Coppery. The boy would muse to himself as he brought a hand up to wipe the blood onto his sleeve. "Thanks." he would mutter out to Avis as he glanced back towards the other beater. Eyes widening as he saw the other was staring at him before ducking his gaze. It left him bewildered, was the other sorry that he had hit him? That seemed unlikely only by his own accounts. For he did not shed any tears, unless they were from laughter, over watching someone hurtle to the ground.
Percival would look away from Sara looking at the girl's head right in front of him. With a small sigh, he readied his bat before leaning in slightly. "Sorry to say, but I think me being here has painted a large target on your back." he would say with a small laugh. Though he quickly realized he was probably stressing the girl out "Hah just kidding." he would add on a bit weakly.

Foulplay | Lovely Creature | Beast Master | Rebound | Nonverbal | Broken Broomshaft |FearlessReducio1. 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.
3. 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.

❀ »»»» Quaffle And (Dis)order: A Friendly Skirmish 【 August 2025 ✿ Sometime 】❰▬▬▬❀▬▬▬❱Before anything else happens… she did give the upperclassman who tried cheering her up a small smile. Albeit a bit forced, it was still a smile nonetheless to show that even a small gesture like that was enough to get her head back in the game and away from whatever thoughts she had. Then the game began.
For once… she was not targeted at the very beginning of the race. Usually, Miharu would be avoiding bludgers and fellow players from the moment the game started. This time, she was not and she liked that. Of course, she can’t say the same for the next round because who knows, someone might be going after her head and with that in mind, she shouldn’t let her guard down. But, that’s not to say that she won’t be taking advantage of her low presence in the game. While cheating wasn’t in her vocabulary and if she were to be honest, she’d rather not do any of sort, there are times that she just had to do it.
For victory, as what her mother would say and doing anything to win was a part of the Goto Family’s motto, either by stepping on other people’s feet or by breaking a couple of rules. Just… try not to get caught. Others who had the same thing in mind, went on to do their own methods of cheating like blatching and other things that she might’ve missed. Her? She was aiming for a Quaffle pock and to do that, she needs to be quick, precise and hopefully, strong enough to even tamper with it. Did I also mention being sneaky enough? The last one, she doesn’t have to worry about. The umpire was too busy to notice her and her sneaky ways before the Quaffle fell into the hands of the other Chasers or whoever wanted it. Looking back at the other members of their team, they weren’t doing so well with two of their members being either too distracted to make a move or to even comprehend that the game was starting. Aside from that, Bakugou-senpai was down for the count after protecting their Seeker and Yami-senpai was on his way to the ground.
Unfortunate, truly unfortunate.

BROOM ABILITIESReducio1/ In the role of Chaser when you attempt to catch a passed Quaffle (such as when the Keeper has possession of the Quaffle and passes it to a teammate) you have advantage (meaning that it is rolled twice and you keep the better option) on attempts to catch if the opponent team attempts to intercept.
2/ In the role of Chaser, if you have a contested quaffle grab and a contested strength roll between yourself and another user is in progress, unless they have the same broom, you would be the victor of the contested quaffle grab. In addition, rounds where you are successfully carrying the quaffle in an attempt to score, you only take half-damage from bludgers and blatching attempts.

Kanae thought she was doing well with the quaffle so far. She got the quaffle 4/5 times but only got through the keeper once. Before the girl could even sulk at the mostly blocked attempts at scoring, she noticed their own keeper get rammed into by Hogwarts' other chaser. Another thing was that Tone was out as well because of the bludger from the other beater. She also watched as someone elbowed Akihiko Takashi... Kanae wondered what he thought of her now after their meeting that one time.
then--
CRACK
She blinked, a little dazed from the sudden impact. The world tilted a bit too much to the left for her liking as she hovered there, breath caught in her throat and a sharp sting blooming along her ribs. Her broom wobbled slightly under her as the bludger clipped her side in the chaos, right after it had already finished flattening Tone. "Oh, come on--!" she hissed through gritted teeth, clutching her side with one hand as she zoomed out of the main fray.
The pain wasn’t unbearable, but it was annoying. A good bruise was forming, no doubt. Kanae clutched her side where the Bludger had hit, the sting flaring hotter now that the adrenaline had dipped for even a second. She grimaced, circling in the air while she caught her breathRP Word Count: 224/200

As he had predicted, quidditch was everything but something that could be called friendly. If proof was needed then the sight of seeing two of his teammates falling from an ungodly height to violently meet the ground beneath would surely suffice as an argument.
He had been surprisingly entangled in an interesting conversation with Jamie about strategies that they could use next, his eyes accessing the team they were playing against and trying to find their weaknesses to explore. And the only sight that brought a small smirk to his lips was when he realised what his cousin had done with the quaffle, “smart Haru” he muttered, but gave no more hints to what he had seen her doing.
Katsuro sighed, brushing his both hands on his face in a gesture of both consternation and annoyance at the results. They were tied, but with two less players, and they were possibly two of the best they had. Was only the sound of Chiaki’s voice that made him look up and sideways at her, “Yes” he replied shortly, not sure what else to say and keep it in a polite tone. His frustration was prickling under his skin, “I supposed that’s why I’m here…” he said, his voice completely drained of enthusiasm.

╭ ╮Egon had a game to attend as keeper, but he was the reserve keeper, which meant that he should be sitting. Lately the Spaniard had started to think that maybe things would have to change, that he’d stop being a backup player and spend more of the action. But there were also some other students from his school sitting with him. Watching the game begin, his smile twisted as the referee called out Shaw’s for the use of elbow force.
His gaze focused on the quaffle, passing between students. His expression turned into a frown when he saw that one of the students at Hogwarts had scored in the hoops, taking the 10-point lead in favor of the rival school. Tone, the seeker on his team, had no luck avoiding the bludger, sent by Percival, causing Egon to make a sound of frustration when he saw perfectly how the bludger hit the shoulder. That must have hurt, thought Egon.
His apparent tranquility was disturbed when he saw Percival directing another bludger again towards Tone and watching him knock him out of the broom. That made Egon stand up, mumbling a few words in Spanish as he sat back down. He cheered loudly when Sara returned the sweet bludger to Percival, enjoying the sound of the loud cracking noise. He watched quietly as the game became interesting.
