Rapier is a French word, and besides that if I were actually trying to be at all accurate I'd likely have gone with Italian fencing anyway. <_<
But enough of that, update time!
You step forward,
Bulk Vanderhuge behind you with his
Claymore at the ready.
*Battle Theme, go!* Yes, that one, really."
Stab yourselves in your faces. Repeatedly." You expend a full third of your Order power to
bend them to your will.
The first Order Initiate struggles with his spear, but
resists your command. The second one resists momentarily, then
succumbs if only barely and pokes at his face a bit, but manages to resist doing lethal damage. Lastly, the Order Inquisitor receives your demand, and
also gives in. His dual blades carve his face slightly before he manages to regain control of himself.
Bulk Vanderhuge raises his Claymore and
swings at the Order Inquisitor, who
dodges and
counterattacks. Bulk Vanderhuge brings his buckler up to block the attack
only to catch the second blade in his side. He winces as it strikes his chainmail [2 Scottish Damage] and backs up.
The Order Initiate who resisted your Voice of Authority
stabs at you. You
block with the buckler, but he deftly maneuvers around your guard. The spearhead slams against your chain mail vest, knocking the wind out of you [2 Irish Damage]. The other Initiate was not as fast to recover as the Order Inquisitor, and is still shaking off the effects of your Voice of Authority.
Your attacks require you to expend a number (usually 1) of the associated stat's pool whether you hit or miss; attacks will first reduce the pool they're paired against, and once that pool is depleted will strike the other one, for an amount that generally amounts to around twice the attack's cost. Each unit has two pools active as its primary HP/MP sources at a given time. A killing blow may be attempted against anyone with at least one pool totally drained. The Crown Prince may draw from pools he isn't using as his HP. Chaos/Order cannot be used as his HP (too hard to regenerate), and once you have multiple pool choices you select which ones at a battle's start.
