Default Dueling Defense Technique

Professor Duskurk stepped into his classroom and banished the desks and chairs. It was standing room only for this class...


NOTE: For those just joining us, please go to the OOC thread in the classroom and find a dueling partner. Then, you may come back here and practice dueling.


UPDATE: Lesson has ended. Homework is as follows and will be due one week from the date of this post.

2) What can you do when facing a more talented and powerful adversary?

"If you are injured, please make your way to the hospital wing prior to heading to you next lesson. I will write notes of excuse for those who need them. Good day."

When the young Slytherin boy took out his wand out he took it as a sign he accepted his partnership so he took out his wand and bowed as you do before a duel and backed up. He did not want to go too hard on the young Slytherin boy but at the same time he wanted a good grade.

Barry nodded to the girl. He added a little smile to be nice. "Ok, then. I`m Barry." he introduced himself. Then he walked a few steps away from her and turned around. "You can start" he announced , twirling his wand waiting for her to begin. Maybe not the best decision.

Atleat he was polite, Herminny thought as she took out her wand and called out, "Nice to meet you Barry I'm Herminny", and then contemplated her 1st move. She had practiced a couple of nonverbal spells over the summer so mabe she could start with a suprise. She waved her wand and thought, 'Obscuro', concentrating on blinding him and directed her wand at at Barry, ahe saw the corect color going right for him, the question her mind is, 'Will it hit?'.

Chris watched as his spell hit Jake and he had no time to sheild himself. Chris felt terrible as the boy began to cry a bit as the effects of the stinging spell hit him. Chris approached the Ravenclaw partner and pointed his wand at him, 'Finite Incantartem." after he said the spell to end the stinging hex, Chris put his hand on the boy's shoulder, "Sorry about that Jake. I will use more verbal spells from now on ok?" he patted the boy on the shoulder gald that he was alright now, and walked back over to his spot. "Your turn when you are ready, Jake!"

Evan bowed back and raised his wand to shoot out a spell when the Gryffindork beat him to it and shot -as Evan'd predicted- non-verbal-- were they thick ropes?! Evan's eyes grew bigger with fear. OH NO what would he do now?! Berserk, he ran to his left with quick, balanced steps of a footballer and escaped from the ropes. Turning back, he shot "Expelliarmus!" He didn't have the slightest hope that the guy would be shot, but still... it was better than just running.

Sarah thinks I'm cute | Shan's safe space.

His head rising from the desk on hearing that they needed to partner up with someone three years younger than him -- Adam had soooo been listening. Not. -- he began to look around the room for a second year. He wouldn't admitt it too them, but he was kinda glad that there wasn't an eighth year at Hogwarts. Because it meant he didn't have to duel someone older than him.

If dueling was what they were supposed to do. Eh, Adam had sooo been listening. But then he thought, maybe a third year would be okay? He was meant to be in sixth byear after all. However, he couldn't see anyone needing a partner.

"Any second or third years need a partner?!"

Barry was busy twirling his wand expecting Herminny to say something before he focused. She was only a fourth year after all. But when he saw a spell rushing towards him he dropped his wand. Oh no. Barry bent over to pick it up and when he stood up again the spell had flown past. Lucky.

Barry was going to have to focus now. He raised his wand and pointed it at Herminny emitting a bat-bogey hex from the end of his wand. If she survived this he`d think about going harder.

Oh dear. Poor Ivory sounded nervous... which made Melanie feel horribly guilty before she even casted anything. Maybe she would have been better off with a seventh year. Then she wouldn't feel the need to feel guilt for her opponent.

Then again, if she was dueling a seventh year she'd probably be out within the first few seconds. So... she was good where she was.

WAS being the key word there. Melanie dived away from the stunning spell just in time, hitting the ground and rolling over onto her side, like a hero in an action movie. Yes, the spell had caught her off her guard (She didn't even hear Ivory cast it! She was only able to anticipate it's arrival by the light flying toward her.)...but Melanie had quick reflexes. Thank goodness. Spotting the shield charm held aloft in front of Ivory, Melanie aimed her wand right at the girl's feet, hoping the sheild may be weaker a the edges of it's boundaries. "TAIR-an-tuh-LEG-ruh!" she pronounced clearly, biting her lip, and concentrating on... dancing. Then Melanie shifted rapidly to her feet.

"Protego!" A shield charm surrounded Melanie as she stood up, flickering for a few seconds before stabilizing.... and then disappearing. The Hufflepuff resolved to simply keep moving once she was up, to make it more difficult to aim a spell at her. She held her wand aloft, ready to dodge, or put another shield up. Should the Tarantallegra spell be effective, she would be able to shoot another offensive spell at Ivory...

If not... Well, she was doing her best to think ahead to what the Ravenclaw would do next. Melanie took a deep breath to calm herself, and a few steps backward so she could aim better if she felt the need to cast another offensive spell soon.


OOC- Tarantallegra (pronounced- TAIR-an-tuh-LEG-ruh)- makes opponent's legs move in a series of complicated dance steps


Ivory's eyes were as wide as she could get them to be. Trying to take in every possible detail.

Biting her lip, her wand held at the ready, she saw Melanie expertly dodge her stunning spell. Admiring the girl's roll on to her side, she heard her exclaim a spell she had never heard before that was aimed straight at her feet. TAIR-an-tuh-LEG-ruh?? What on earth was that, it sounded something like the Tarantella dance from the Italian ballet and since Melanie had aimed at her feet she figured it was probably somesort of foot spell? Would her feet come off and dance away?
Scared to be left without her means of movement, Ivory did not have enough time to aim her shield downwards. In the split second before the spell hit she did the only thing instinct let her...she jumped. Right in time it seemed, and she felt a small ripple pass through the tail of her robes.

In that moment an idea struck her. Hopefully, the Tarantallegra was some sort of dancing jinx instead of a foot removing one.

Watching as Melanie shielded she noticed that it flickered out and the girl began to move making herself a harder target.

Committing this to memory and praying she looked convincing she started jittering her feet around, lowering her wand in what she hoped looked like a 'Oh no my feet are going crazy let me see if I can take the spell off.'

Counting on 'Muffliato' still being in effect and hopefully looking as if she was concerned about her feet, she aimed her wand casually as she bent down and quietly pronounced "Locomotor Mortis." before casting a simple Trip Jinx on the floor slightly next to her.

Praying that if Melanie was able to dodge the Leg-locker curse then she'd at least encounter the Trip Jinx giving Ivory enough time to try another spell.

Looking around, Nicoletta noticed that most of the people already had partners. "Anyone need a partener?" she asked hopefully. "I'm a second year.

Eek! This was just...well, at least they were learning something useful this lesson. Up until now anyways. Although the part where the professor had said that Cela and Tibi would be in charge of escorting their fellows to the the Hospital Wing when it is their turn to be injured did creep her out slightly.

Okay. A LOT actually.

Oh, and just when Nancy got to think of it, this new girl, Neptune or whatever she was called creeped her out too. What a shifty one. Feign death and then attack her opponent. Eek! Hopefully they wouldn't be playing this game again like a few terms ago where they had to duel in the corridors. She would have to watch out for a seemingly dead Neptune...

Now, a partner...who was either 3 years older or younger than her...alright...quite unlikely she would find any 9th Years around here, so a 3rd Year it would be. "Any 3rd Years or so still need a partner?" Nancy wondered out loud while letting her gaze wander around the classroom, lingering on a few familiar faces.

Hopefully she would find somebody. She was so not going to ask Mr. Creepy for help...despite the fact that he had given her a coupon for the Hog's Head.

"Errm, I'm a second year. That work?" Nicoletta asked. Quite frankly she just wanted to get it over with, she was probobly one of the yougest in the class. Wasn't much of a difference though, she was already thirteen and should've been a third year.

It was only the feeling of movement very close to his leg that cause him to look down and speak because it made him very uncomfortable to feel that presence down there on the floor at his feet.


Professor Duskurk smiled. "An excellent stratagem, Miss Bott. When you are outclassed you need to think outside of the box. Running from the room would have been another good alternative in this case, I think," he replied with an evil smile of his own before looking back up at the rest of the class. "You have all made some surprisingly thoughtful and valid remarks. One, it is never a good idea to reveal your strategies, even after a duel which is why I will only teach you the basics and will never reveal my own strategies for dueling. Two, offense and defense are equally important so you cannot simply defend and hope to win and unless your opponent is not attacking or you are very, very, good, you cannot fail to defend yourself, either. Three, one cannot always have a plan when dueling. It is inevitable that at some point in your dueling career that you will need to improvise without thinking. Sometimes your improvisations will require further improvisation as your best intentions fail to play out even if you had a plan to start with. And fourth, practice does not always make perfect, but it will certainly help against those of similar talent."


"State of mind can have a powerful influence, but while thinking you will lose will almost certainly cause you to lose, merely thinking you will win means nothing without the proper training, practice, and talent."


"Who said dueling was fair? Unless you are in the controlled environment of an official dueling tournament, then wizard duels are never fair."


"Well said. Offense and defense are, 99% of the time, mutually exclusive. And non-verbal spells are the key to any successful duel," Professor Duskurk agreed and then stepped away from the Bott child who was beginning to creep him out.

"Now, if Mr. Pryce is able, he and Miss Toussaint will be in charge of ushering you to the Hospital Wing when you become injured. You are to pair off with someone 3 years your elder or junior and begin dueling. Uneven matches only, please, for this round. The older students will have their chance to test their own skill at a later time," he said and that evil smile flitted across his face. "If you have trouble finding a partner, please let me know and I will assist you (ooc: please send me a PM and I will aid you in finding a partner)."

Professor Duskurk finally wandered to the front of the room to check on his students. "Here are some coupons for your assistance," he said. "Are you feeling well enough to remain for the rest of the lesson or do you need the hospital wing?"


"Excuse me professor, but isn't overconfidence just as dangerous as a defeatest attitude. If you are so sure you're going to win, you tend to let your guard down and make mistakes. Proper practice and talent can only take you so far. Sometimes fear and desperation are better allies. It is amazing what one can do when one has no other choice. I would imagine you would do whatever is necessary to win even cheat." Sidney smiles. Professor Duskury is a man who likes to win. I imagine he creates his own rules when dueling and fighting.

Yes! Nancy had just made up a plan of feigning an illness to avoid having to ask Mr. Creepy for help finding a partner when indeed somebody walked up to her. And even a fellow Slytherin. Phew!

"Yeah, I guess that'll work. I'm Nancy by the way." She even directed a small smile towards the girl before taking her gaze off again to see what the others were doing. Okay...they were starting already...was she seriously supposed to duel this tiny second year?!

Taking her wand out of her holster Nancy waited for the other girl to do the same. She had to give her a small chance after all. Plus, she had just decided she wouldn't use any non-verbals. Even if she was Slytherin she would not be that sneaky. Especially not with a fellow Slytherin.

Or, y'know, maybe she would.

Herminny was expecting him to do a non-verbal spell since he was after all a th year. She saw the spell she recognized to be a bat-bogey hex and and quickly waved her wand thinking the sheilding charm protego concentrating on protecting herself and just in time the sheild emited from her wand blocking the hex. She let the sheild go and quickly sent a silent incarcerous concentrating on binding Barry quickly hoping to catch him off guard, ropes shot out of her wand at Barry.

Pair up and duel?? With someone 3 years older than her?? But she didn't even know any spells. Well, okay. She knew a few. But she'd never used them. And she can hear other people's spells.... So...

"I'm a first year. Any fourth years want to pair up??" she asked timidly, looking around.

"Hi Nancy, I'm Nicoletta." Hmmm, I've seen her somewhere. she thought. It didn't matter though, she just had to duel and not get killed. Which was going to be hard for someone as small as her, but hey! She could hit a bludger like nobody's buisness so she could probobly duel a sixth year. Right? Nicoletta pulled her wand out of her pocket. "I guess we start then." Nicoletta said to Nancy and whispered, "Protego!"

Ohh. There was someone who needed a partner...ehhhhh. It was fun watching everyone else duel if she were to admit it.

"I'm a second year." she said, raising her hand slightly before going back to crossing her arms. Since she was a second year, that would mean he was a fifth year right? But he did say if there were an second or third years soooo...was this guy a sixth year?

Dueling against a fifth or sixth year...possibly involving some kind of losing on her part. In front of everyone. *sigh*

Nicoletta pulled her wand out of her pocket. "I guess we start then." Nicoletta said to Nancy and whispered, "Protego!"
Nicoletta. Hmm...somehow the name sounded familiar. Well, never mind. She was a Slytherin after all so Nancy was bound to have seen the girl around already. Anyways, now it was time to duel. Hehe...

Cocking her head slightly to the side Nancy smirked at the younger girl as she cast a Shielding Charm around her. Clever one. Again, as she had decided against non-verbals (for now) Nancy quickly raised her wand and gave it a small flick. "Tarantallegra!" Let's start with something easy for Nicoletta.

The 16 year old quickly cast a non-verbal Shielding Charm around herself in case the younger one actually managed to block the jinx.

Biting her lip, her wand held at the ready, she saw Melanie expertly dodge her stunning spell. Admiring the girl's roll on to her side, she heard her exclaim a spell she had never heard before that was aimed straight at her feet. TAIR-an-tuh-LEG-ruh?? What on earth was that, it sounded something like the Tarantella dance from the Italian ballet and since Melanie had aimed at her feet she figured it was probably somesort of foot spell? Would her feet come off and dance away?
Scared to be left without her means of movement, Ivory did not have enough time to aim her shield downwards. In the split second before the spell hit she did the only thing instinct let her...she jumped. Right in time it seemed, and she felt a small ripple pass through the tail of her robes.

In that moment an idea struck her. Hopefully, the Tarantallegra was some sort of dancing jinx instead of a foot removing one.

Watching as Melanie shielded she noticed that it flickered out and the girl began to move making herself a harder target.

Committing this to memory and praying she looked convincing she started jittering her feet around, lowering her wand in what she hoped looked like a 'Oh no my feet are going crazy let me see if I can take the spell off.'

Counting on 'Muffliato' still being in effect and hopefully looking as if she was concerned about her feet, she aimed her wand casually as she bent down and quietly pronounced "Locomotor Mortis." before casting a simple Trip Jinx on the floor slightly next to her.

Praying that if Melanie was able to dodge the Leg-locker curse then she'd at least encounter the Trip Jinx giving Ivory enough time to try another spell.
Good. The spell seemed to be working... Instead of raising her defenses, Melanie sent yet another spell flying toward the first year. "Silencio." she said, keeping her voice down this time. That was surely the strategy Ivory was using, right? She always saw the light, but never heard the incantation... Melanie could play that game too.

The Hufflepuff kept her guard up, wand never dropping to her side. She simply kept moving, not sure when the dancing curse would wear off. By sheer luck, she managed to dodge the Leg-Locker Curse, a somewhat triumphant look on her face. She hadn't even seen the spell until she turned around to spot it was zipping past her...

Then she tripped, falling right on her face.

OWWWW. Why was she always on the stupid floor lately?

Melanie drew up so she was sitting curled up, and almost immediately a shield exploded from her wand once more, as she spoke the word, "Protego", slashing her wand precisely the way Professor Kazimeriz had taught them a while back. This time, the shield was a bit stronger.

The girl actually contemplated hanging out under her bubble of protection for a second... but she knew it wouldn't stay up too long. So she stood again, her bubble turning into more of a shield, which she held in front of her mid-section, so she could move it up and down to try and block whatever got thrown at her. It would probably start flickering again after a minute or so... and Melanie knew this, so she continued to move about. Did it look ridiculous? Probably. Would it be effective? She hoped so.

Meanwhile... "Langlock." Melanie muttered, flicking her wand in the direction of the other girl.

The spell hit her sheild but Nicoletta jumped out of it's way as a precaution. Her sheild slowly faded away so that she was left exposed. "Expelliarmus! Stupefy!" Nicoletta sent two spells flying at the sixth year. "Protego." she whispered again... The whole whispering thing wasn't gonna work to well.

What now?!! The frozen huge bird was coming towards him but...Did he see that right? O.O Yes, it was a huge stone. Rock Bird Attack!!!
Now he really needed to find something to avoid this at least to remain alive. 'Reducto?' Would reducto work? But he only knew the incantation and never mastered the spell. Uh-oh no time...

With a deep deep breath, he jumped right with all his strenght and sportive skills to dodge the rock bird as a result, luckily enough, it hit the floor breaking into pieces. And the moment he looked up from the floor to the Slytherin boy some little ones of those pieces hit his head. ''Ow!'' Evil...evil Slytherin! ''You wanna play mean, meanie?'' he said once he was back on his feet. ''Take this then! ORCHIDEOUS!!'' he yelled and many many colourful flowers rained on the boy scattering around him.

Oh wow. Nicoletta actually managed to shield herself. And the way she was jumping out of the way just in case made Nancy smirk approvingly. She would make a good Quidditch play- THAT was why she had looked familiar. Quidditch. The tryouts.

Discarding the topic FOR NOW Nancy watched as both the girl's spells bounced off her shield with ease. Okay...she still had to renew it but at least it had held. With a quick flick of her wand she non-verbally renewed her shield before cocking her head slightly to the side. Now it was time to play...

"Stupefy!" Nancy exclaimed forcefully, pointing her wand directly at Nicoletta. And with a rather shifty smirk she sent a non-verbal Confundus Charm the girl's way. Now, THIS was going to be interesting...

She didn't bother casting Protego again, and jumped aside instead. The second spell went past her, but it was a close thing - only two or three centimetres past the sleeve of her robes, and what if they had caught on fire?

Pushing her hair out of her eyes, Kiri flicked her wand and cast another Disarming Spell. It probably wouldn't do much, the girl still had her shield up, but she needed a moment or two to think. If she couldn't get past the shield... Kiri pointed her wand at the ground the girl was standing on. "Glacius!" she yelled, and the worn, wooden planks on the floor were suddenly covered by a layer of ice. "Tarrrrrrrrantallegra!" she added with a flourish of her wand. Let's see her handle that combination, she thought grimly, bringing her wand up in front of her and absent-mindedly wiping her runny nose with her robe.
Feeling the floor become ice Kay took a care steop back off of it. She could fall ot Kiri would have her. Bring her wand up to to hold her sheild She felt the twice hex bump into her sheild. Her leg moved a little and Kay knew that it had gotten throught the sheild. Her leg started to move all on it own. "FINITE." Pointing at her leg. Bring the wand up and pointing it at Kiri. "REDUCTO!" shooting at the floor under Kiri feet. She jump forward over the ice and sent the second Hex. "VENTUS!" And a strong wind came out of the end of her wand. She hoped that Kiri's sheild would be down. When this was over she hoped she would remember how to fix the floor.

Meanie? Dylan wasn't a meanie. "I am not being mean. I am only duelling you Josh," he frowned. So what if he got hit by a smashed rock bird. Take it like a man. "You are going to attack me with flowers?" he chuckled. He watched the flowers fall about him.

"Impedimenta," he fired. Take that kiddo.
