A referee (Professor Flamsteed or Dakest) will be assigned to your duel and present. They will only interfere if there is need, including foul play, serious injury or unacceptable or illogical use of spells.
OOC: Each duel must be completed by no later than October 24, midnight GMT-6 (OOC). Remember that a duel ends when one dueler has lost ALL magic or ALL health points. Please make duels a minimum of 3 posts each.
These first duels will be a trail run of sorts. The point system for the spells and physical actions was done by thought and hasn't been tested. You all are the guinea pigs. Let me know how it goes If you find that there are be difficulties in the weight of points, please let me know. If there are spells missing you think should be included, please let me know.
If you have questions, please ask. Also, if for some reason you cannot complete or start your duel, please let both me and your partner know. We will work something out.
Remember: duelers MUST keep track of their own points as they go. At the top of their post (in the tag line) they must include their current standing of points, as they are at the BEGINNING of that post. At the bottom of their post, they must include a 'spoiler' tag, including the spells which they've cast (and the directionallity of the spell, so the opponent can easily reference the potential damage to themselves), the spell(s) that have affected them (if any) and their own final Point Standing for that post.
Henric groaned inwardly, he was up against Candice?! The girl who probably hated his guts for accusing her back in the great hall and be wanting to hex him if she could. Were the professors mental when they decided to put them two together in this duel?! Maybe he was a overreacting a little....okay...a LOT. He would consider himself lucky to come out of here alive...correction...IF...he could come out of here alive in this duel. He had no choice in the matter anyway because they were up next in the battlefield.
He reluctantly stepped into the dueling platform/arena to face the wide-eyed Gryffindor,Candice Messer. His frown was apparent in his facial expression as he stood waiting for her to get ready. "Messer,"he smirked. Although he had never tried hexing any girl prior to this duel, that didn't mean he would go easy on her.Nope...Candice could pull that innocent-looking face on the outside and still it wouldn't work on him. He believed she could be very...he meant...very...lethal scary in order to achieve her goals. Henric was determined to stay alert and hope his best he could counter her spells.
Henric didn't say anything more and bowed as instructed before turning away so his back was facing her instead. He moved forward as he counted the five steps in his head. Without further ado, he thought of the first hex he could think of and cast the Bat-Bogey hex at her!

Reason: Miscalculation of points - Tazenhani templated point tracker for you :) <3
She has been waiting for this moment since Dakest posted the roster. Its liked the man knew that she wanted to hex Nicolei after the Great Hall incident. Now she has the perfect opportunity to hex his pretty face off without getting a detention. Wearing her dueling uniform, Candice entered the dueling area. SHE WOULD WIN THIS MATCH!
She was pretty sure that she need to maintain her facial expression when she's about to go into a duel but she couldn't hep but smirked when she saw the frown on Henric's face. "Scared Nicolei?" Cue another SMIRK! "Nicolei!" She bowed. She didn't like to bow to other person especially Nicolei but rules are rules. She didn't want to be disqualified just because she refused to bow to Henric. And she did notice the smirk after he said her name.
Candice turned around and walked five paces before she turned back to face Henric. But as soon as she turned around, Henric was sending her the Bat-Bogey hex at her and she didn't get a chance to cast a shield charm to protect her from that stupid hex. It hit her and suddenly her bogeys turned into giant black bats and crawled out from her nose and attacked her.
Darn it!
"FINITE!" And it stopped. The bogeys stopped attacking her!
"ITS ON, NICOLEI!" OH! He definitely gonna regret that he send that Bat-Boogey Hex at her. She moved her wand in the appropriate wand movement then.....

Reason: Tazenhani - small clarification on points :)
Sorry these things weren't outlined clearly before....
1) If you are using non-verbal spells, be be advised that they cost an additional -25 magic points on TOP of the cost of using that spell. Please clarify whether a spell is non-verbal or not.
2) If you cast a spell, or try, and it fails for your character (as in YOU RP it not working) point loss still occurs for the attempt to cast (think of the energy a wizard/witch has to expend trying to do magic)
3)Also, don't worry about putting a point tracker at the top of your post. Please just (in the title of your post, put Health, Magic, and Fatigue points at the START of that post (so whatever they were ending at the last post and BEFORE any spells hit or other spells are cast)....
i.e. Post A ends with 20 Health, 5 Magic and 0 Fatigue --> please title post B with the same. (Just makes for easier point tracking :3)
4) Fatigue points are ONLY depleted if you are doing a physical attack or maneuver to defend against an attack. Duelers can move about freely, jump on the spot and so forth, so long as they aren't actively defending against an attack or doing an offensive attack

Henric felt accomplished when his spell hit her squarely in the face! He watched amusingly as a couple of winged bat-bogeys came out of her nose and attacked her. BLIMEY! Would you look at that?! One by one the bat-bogeys exploded and splattered on her dueling uniform, making a mess everywhere around her! Yikes! So slimy!! Haha!
W-waitt...Whaaaat!?? He didn't manage to react as fast though...because her spell hit him like a giant force that almost had him stumbling back. He stood shocked for a moment. DID SHE JUST CAST A HAIR-LOSS CURSE AT HIM??! OH GREAT HEAVENS!! PLEASE...PLEASE...pleaasse....nooo...not the hair....
Henric reached up to touch the top of his head. His face paled and his eyes widened when he finally realized his hair was no more. "I'm bald..." his voice barely came out as a whisper.
HIS PRECIOUS HAIRRRRR GONE!! POOF! HIS BABYYY VANISHED!!
.... T.T......
Henric took a couple of deep breaths to calm himself down....he could use the hair-regrowing spell ...pfft..no problem...this was nothing...Yeah..positive...be positiveeeee...Henric....
However, she had touch THE HAIR. Her actions was completely uncalled for on her part. This was beyond a doubt, straight-up WAR between them! His nostrils flared, his face contorted into pure consuming anger as he eyes narrowed into slits.
"TITILLANDO!"he cast.
Oh ...and how about this too.Hehe.

She learned that particular spell when she knew that Henric was her first opponent. She knew the Hufflepuff was obsess with his hair like all of the Hufflepuff boys. And now seeing Henric all bald was just made her day. She didn't care if she lose the duel later. She just made the Hufflepuff go bald. Chuckles. "Sorry?" NAAAAAAAAAH! Not sorry at all.
Even though she's pretty happy with Bald!Henric, Candice never let her eyes away from Henric especially his wand. She saw the boy was doing wand movement. She quickly cast PROTEGO deflecting the spell back to the Hufflepuff. There should do. But unfortunately she didn't saw the second spell coming towards her. Now she had 'bunny teeth' all thanks to Henric. Grumble.
The Hufflepuff seem need a little cheering and because she's such a good friend, Candice send the Cheering Charm towards Henric.

Still working out the kinks. Here are two important spell updates. If you have already used these spells, don't worry about them, please still follow through as per the previous guidelines/point systems for the spells. If you haven't, and are considering them, these are the new rules for Expelliarmus and Stupefy. See the Q & A thread for more details
SPOILER!!: Expelliarmus
Expelliarmus:Disarms the target (of whatever they are holding) and can be used to knock-back a target if cast forcefully enough
Caster Points:
H: 0
M: -10
F: 0
Opponent Points:
H: -15
M: -15 (ONLY if spell disarms caster of wand)
F: 0
Additional Effects: If hit by the spell, victim MUST loose their grip on whatever they are holding. If it is their wand, -15 magic points applies. If their wand is disarmed, the victim can go after it without a cost of loosing fatigue points.
After Blaise Bellaire was knocked-out with a stupefy spell, it has been banned from the club. Reason for this is that the Tournament Duels are supposed to help students practice dueling, and having a K/O isn't the best way to do this. Therefore, Stupefy will be a spell permitted only in practice sessions and Challenges, as per the new point system:
SPOILER!!: Stupefy (NO longer permitted in tournaments)
Stupefy:Stuns and knock's-out target
Caster Points:
H: 0
M: -100
F: 0
Opponent Points:
H: -100%
M: -100%
F: -100%
Additional Effects: If hit, the victim will be rendered unconscious. For this reason, it is not permitted in the dueling arena. Only in practice duels and the Challenges.

No! Candice deflected his spell! She was quick, he had to give her that. Henric had only a few seconds to spare before the spell rebounded towards him. He quickly terminated it with his own counter-spell wand movement,"FINITE!". He watched both of their spells clashed and exploded in mid-air.
Atleast his second spell hit her and caused her teeth to grow in size! "Nice front teeth,Messer, want some bunny ears to go with that too?!"Henric seethed. He wasn't amused at all...nope...he was still in his angry-state of mind. All the time and effort he put to keep his hair absolutely perfect and just the way he liked it ...GONE...in an instant! After this duel over, Henric going straight to his dormroom and find every hair-regrowing spells in the book!
Henric DUCKED just in time as Candice offensive spell missed him by a few inches, just above his new shiny baldy head. Woaah...that was a close call! Henric knew of that spell of course, it was a cheering charm spell that could make him deliriously happy and laughing out of control. OH-HO-HO...she was going to play that game,huh?!
Okay, that's it! No more Mr.Nice guy!

Henric managed to cast Finite and made some kind of explosion in the air. Ugh. The teeth. She's gonna fix this teeth of her after the duel finish. Right now she had more important matter to handle. Defeat Henric! "Yeah. Thanks so much for that, Nicolei!" Sarcasm. "And nice hair." Or the lack of it.
And the Hufflepuff managed to duck her cheering charm. DARN IT! He had a nice reflex she could at least gave him that. Then before she could react, her opponent send Leg-Locker Curse towards her. And now she couldn't move her legs. She need to hop around like a bunny if she wanted to move. Clever Badger.
Hooop...Hoooop...Hoooop...

Henric frowned. Nice HAIR?! He didn't have any! He scoffed."You're welcome, Messer! Oh yeah, your hair is next,"he grinned 'evilly'. Did she think he would let her go like that? He knew every hair-cutting and hair-colour changing spell in the book! He would love to turn her hair into something every girl would love to 'hate' soon. Henric was probably going to end up in detention after but y'know...eye for an eye, he supposed.
He smirked slightly when his leg-locking curse hit Candice. Unfortunately, it didn't do enough for her to fall flat on her face. Oh yes, he wouldn't be helping her up if it did. Heheh... Oh look! She was hopping like a bunny! Oh man...he couldn't help but bent over laughing!
And then...Henric was suddenly knocked back a few steps. Huh? What just happened? He blinked in confusion. Why was he standing in the middle of this dueling arena? Was he here the whole time? Wait. This was all too confusing to him, it made his head spin. Urgh.
He looked up only to find bunny-teeth Candice had her wand raised up at him! Woah! He needed to do something fast!

Her hair was next? NO WAY! She's not going to let Nicolei ruining her perfect hair. Didn't he know how long she need to make her hair look perfect like now? It took her five minutes to do this ponytails. She need to keep an eye on that. She's not going to leave this duel with bad hair. No, thank you.
Candice grinned when her spell hit Henric. Bullseye! That's a price he had to pay for making her hoping like a bunny. Hmph!
She saw Henric making some wand movement and she was ready to cast the shield charm on herself but unfortunately for her, Henric' spell hit her first and suddenly her legs were moving by itself like it has brain. Now she was dancing like a mad man. She didn't mind dancing but dancing because of spell she didn't like it!

Woo! Look at her dance! If only he could play some music to accompany her dancing moves. Nope, he wouldn't want to be in her shoes right now. Far from it. Henric was terrible at dancing. Terrible. Using the spell on himself would still be embarrassing though.
Henric had expected her move before she even utter the spell from her mouth.So he had ample time to get away before her spell hit him. Without using his magic to cast the shield charm, he avoided it by somersaulting/rolling forward onto the floor. Obviously, he had perfected this move ever since his judo fighting days. Time to get even, Candice!
He pointed his wand towards her and cast the STINGING hex verbally!

Candice saw her opponent rolling forward onto the floor like a pangolin to avoid her spell. Darn it! Henric managed to get away from her spell once again and she's not a very happy person right now.
When the Hufflepuff cast the Stinging Hex. Yes, she knew what its from the wand movement. "Protego!" She's not going to make the same mistake twice. Nu-uh. That stinging hex was a very nasty thing. Thank Merlin she managed to cast the shield charm in time.
He's gonna pay for sending her Stinging Hex!

Just as the spell left the tip of Candice's wand, the grandfather clock went up and a curtain of faint, shimmering light shot up between the two duelers. The spell hit the wall with a splat, a few slugs and slim sliding down it as the wall trembled and then broke apart into glitter that dropped on both duelers heads. It disappeared a moment later.
Sabel was between them by that time, containing a small chuckle at the determination on both kid's faces. "That, was quite a battle." Raising his wand, Sabel sent a small golden light to flash over Henric's head. "The winner of the duel, Mr. Nicolei. But, congratulations to you both."
It was well deserved.
