Facts:

Explanation – If you compare both profiles, you can see that Aerynn is definitely lacking abilities to use, which required Boo to shoot some actions out of her ass (Props to her, they were wonderful; seriously). Elfe on the other hand definitely put her moves to use and did some heavy damage to Aerynn. [Elfe]

Style:

Explanation – Both role players’ posts were just delightful to read in this thread. Elfe did things she was capable of and more. I loved and questioned that fist to the ground and rock throwing at the same time. Incredible strength, yes, but I couldn’t seem to find anything regarding that strength in the profile. Everything Aerynn did, her profile clearly states that she’s capable of, with the questioning sandstorm. Sandstorm and ground punching to the side, Aerynn, who was the underdog from the beginning, managed to creatively find ways to injure Elfe down and mess up her game. Stealing the weapon, although cheap, was fairly awesome, especially when she used it. So when it comes to style, although both very enjoyable to visualize, I have to give it to her based on the creativity to do the damage that she did. [Aerynn]

Sportsmanship:

Explanation – Both characters were very realistic with injuries; and I loved that. However, most can’t argue with the fact that Aerynn took most hits like a champ. Most of her actions were just recovering from them with made me giggle. Although, that one whole post where Elfe took everything was nice. However, the one who I feel took the heavier beating and was more realistic with the outcome, and focused on the pain more was her. (Fast large rock to the back of the head would hurt a lot; I feel like.) Props to both characters for giving me the funny visual of the chase of the injured combatants in an arena where I’m used to fast paced running and combat. [Aerynn]

Overall Winner - Aerynn

Facts:

All in all... this was... interesting. Albeit, I'm unsure what the action boxes were meant for here (they don't make much sense to me). Perhaps the bit on the using wings to create the sandstorm was a bit of a thinking, I feel it's quite capable. They were really going at each other without much for words, but yeah. It was an interesting match, also a quick paced one. - [Aerynn]

Style:

The battle really went either way as things kept moving, but as things went on, the impact of Elfé offense really took its toll on Aerynn and it did seem to be more in favor for Elfé due to her strength. Albeit, Aerynn really did well in fighting back in a more creative manner, I feel this goes to Elfé. - [Elfé]

Sportsmanship:

As things moved, they were realistic with injuries, maybe Aerynn took a bit too much on that end. Also the choices for attacks were sometimes interesting, especially Aerynn kept thinking of new ways to attack. Elfé did seem to avoid more damage then Aerynn did. I've been a bit unsure on some bits. Also Elfé allowed her weapon to be taken, but didn't let herself be won from only that. Things really took some interesting turns. - [Elfé]

Facts:

Explanation - Both members did well here. They each had their own interesting style. Aerynn the improviser. Elfe the brute. It was an interesting site to see. As well I feel both characters were pretty good with how canon their abilities were. The thing that gives the clear winner though is who did the most damage. Without a doubt in my mind Elfe laid down the punches here and was going to win real soon if the battle continued.[Elfe]

Style:

Explanation - Style wise both players did good. I got what was happening and when it was happening. It was interesting as in the beginning neither player seemed to have had more ground than the other though that changed fairly late after blind went away. I feel both players adjusted to their surroundings very well. Now onto a more OC part of style which is the post style. Both players have a distinct writing style. But, I did enjoy the action boxes of Aerynn more. As well I really enjoyed the improvisation used by Aerynn. The only skill used in her actual form was blind,, but all her other named attacks seemed about right for the time given. It was really nice reading, and added a lot to how creative the posts were. This is one of the few times I felt for a character in a battle when reading this The winner though that is a toughy. But Only very slightly I have to give it to Aerynn [Aerynn]

Sportsmanship:

Explanation - Without a doubt in my mind the winner here is Aerynn. All throughout the thread she was taking blows like she should have. She was being In character and taking all the hits in a realistic manner which is being pounded, by a superhuman basically. Now she could have used her wings for more dodging I think but she didn't she took the hits realistically. Elfe as well took her hit well, but I just feel that she was a super dodger and blocker even when her blind was on. My problem is not with how she took her hit but how many she was able to avoid some of which just seemed unrealistic to me. As well OC both characters were true players, though in his category I have to give it Aerynn. OC he really wanted to win or lose the fight IC and not through the easy way of a DQ. He strove almost every day poking to get Elfe to post one last time so the thread would not end, and that is what puts him ahead here. [Aerynn]

Now this is a hard on for me yes that stats say Aerynn won, by two categories to one, but if the battle kept going I have no doubt Elfe would have won squarely I mean just look at the poor girls last post, unless the refs stopped it there (Hercules intervention) I just feel Aerynn would have been slaughtered on the spot after that point. But just using the review Aerynn won.
