Group C: Ravenclaw vs Slytherin

Alexander did not see the direct result of his spell, with the thick fog cloud obscuring it, but he could vaguely see how the vague figure in the misty crowd (Aida) dropped down on the ground, unconscious. He was not sure who had actually hit Aida though, him and Ileen had both been aiming at her and either of their attacks could have dropped her.
In a way, it pained him to see Aida on the ground by partially his hand, but he knew that this was a competition and that it was not personnel. It was effectively decided that it had to happen as soon as the division was made for the various tournament divisions. But at least now that Aida was out of the field, perhaps now his mind could truly focus on the duel. Not being clouded by the conflicting emotions of battle and friendship. Now he could, without a guilty conscience, get hyped up for the battle. So he sent a grin at where he imagined Ileen to be, even if it was unlikely she could see his expression. Then, whilst Aida was being dragged away and before the duel continued Alexander spoke quietly but with a determined undertone. "Let's finish this." Then he turned his sight towards the lone remaining Ravenclaw, his grin gaining a small edge to it as he looked through the smoke at the vague outline of a figure.

• If a player successfully casts a spell at a part-Human opponent, they get +1 Accuracy if they attack and +1 Evasion if they're being attacked. This doesn't give any IC knowledge of the opponent's race or talent unless found out in advance or revealed during the duel.
Evasive Maneuvers:
• When a spell was successfully cast at a player with Evasive Manoeuvres, a 1d10 roll is performed prior to Accuracy vs Evasion roll to determine whether the spell will be auto-dodged (roll 10). The Accuracy vs Evasion roll will not be needed in case of success.
• The auto-dodge chance can stack only to 20% from any number of sources and in this case 9 or 10 would be considered a success.

Damion was a little upset seeing his partner fall unconscious. He knew that it was up to him to win this duel. He wanted to win it for them and was hoping that he wouldn't be unconscious before he won it. He wanted to make his team proud of him. He was hoping that he would win it despite his chances of winning being very low.

It looked like the Slytherin team had no intention of slowing down: after successfully knocking down Aida, both duellists concentrated their attention on Damion, or at least what they could see of him through the thick smoke. Ileen had decided to cast the wind Jinx at him: as the spell flew towards the boy, it looked almost like he could make it and avoid the spell, but that did not happen, and a strong jolt of wind hit him, dealing 110 HP of damage, and making his movements more difficult for the next round.
That however, did not stop him from avoiding Alexander's Expelliarmus that flew towards him; in the next round he might be fighting against the wind, but at least he'll still have his wand.
Damion then tried to cast Incendio towards Ileen; his aim was not the best, most likely because of the thick smoke that still covered the whole platform, and his spell completely missed the girl, who also moved out of the way easily.
So far anything could still happen, there was no clear winner yet, and hopefully the smoke will clear out soon, allowing Lydia, and the duellists as well, to see better what was happening in front of them.

Let’s finish this. The words were not loud but exactly what Ileen needed to hear from her partner at that very moment. Aida was out. She had to push past the guilt and pain and focus on the last opponent. She had to do that. For Alexander, for herself and for her knight twin. Taking him out too would prove that it hadn’t been Aida’s fault. The faith seemed to be with the Slytherin team today.
She gritted her teeth. The grip around her chestnut wand tightened as she raised it. The wind jinx had served her well today. It would be a good choice to go with again. She felt proud and excited about using an advanced spell so well today. She didn’t feel useless anymore.
And just like that, she noticed a movement in the thick smoke. Following her instincts she aimed and casted. Another successful wind jinx sent from the tip of her wand into the darkness together with a Flipendo from Alexander. Darn, when would this damn smoke be gone?!
“Yes. Let’s finish this.” Her voice wasn’t much louder as Alexander’s before abd not less determined.

The drums of war were once again spreading across Alex's bodies. The beating of his heart pushed the blood and adrenaline through his blood. Now that his friend was out of the battlefield, he could feel himself growing more determined and joyful. Allowing him to feel his emotions more intimately, thus for a slight moment, he cringed as he saw how his own burst of magic seemed to just go wide of Damion. Though such things were hard to make out through all the fog !!! Really it was not a pleasure for either the duellists or the audience, but soon the smoke would fade as well as the last Ravenclaw.
To his side he heard an affirmative word from Ileen, something which caused a confident smile to return to his face. Now with the current situation analyzed, and Ileen's confirmation reverberating through the duelling platform, he knew it was time to spring into action once more. Thus with a tight grip on his cherry wood wand, Alexander once more leapt into action. As Ileen had said, it was time to finish this.

Damion was trying his best to stay in the game. The duel seemed a little unfair as he was only one standing from his team and his opponents were two. He wished that he would succeed in this, but he had missed his spell that he had cast on Ileen. He just wished that he would do better.

SLYTHERIN WINS
As the smoke started to clear a little bit, Lydia kept her gaze locked on the duellists. Damion was still fighting for his team; he aimed his wand towards Ileen and a powerful Knockback flew towards the girl, but the Ravenclaw boy's aim was not the best, and Ileen easily moved out of the way, not a single scratch on her.
Damion was not as lucky with his dodging though. The wind from the previous Wind Jinx that Ileen had hit him with was still strong, and just as the air started to settle, the Slytherin girls cast another Ventus his way. It looked as if he had almost avoided it, but in the end he got hit by the jinx, and another strong jolt of wind hit him, dealing also quite the damage.
If that wasn't bad enough for Damion, Alexander's spell flew right towards him, and the Flipendo hit him right in the chest. Even though the spell was not the strongest Flipendo, it still dealt quite a lot of damage, and Lydia could see the moment that Damion fell to the ground, unconscious.
"Everybody, please stop the spells!" She said and stepped onto the platform. The smoke was all gone now, and the remaining players could finally see in front of their noses. After Damion had been brought away and towards the Hospital Wing, Lydia clapped her hands once, with a smile on her face as she motioned for the Slytherin duellists to come closer. "Slytherin has won the duel! Congratulations guys, it has been a really intense duel!" she told them, smiling brightly.
