Suzume nods, jumping down from the ridge and approaching him, both hands clasping her brilliantly glistening uchigatana. She then twirls it and points it diagonally while holding it to her shoulder, and then bows courteously, as was traditional before sparring matches in her homeland.
-
It’s not a tradition from his homeland but he bows low thinking it it would be rude if he does not. From their he immediately rushes and swings his sword in a downward chop with enough force for any smaller sword not to be able to block.
-
Suzume quickly sidesteps and directs her blade towards him in a quick upward slash, seemingly unsurprised by his sudden rush and display of force.
-
With amazing agility for a man of his size he moves his sword to block the attack then tries to use his superior strength to push her backwards.
-
Suzume uses that attempt to push her back wards to her advantage, and she moves with his push, rolling backwards before quickly surging forwards and ducking low, delivering a few slashes to his legs before standing up again on the other side of him, readying several more attacks.
-
When she surges forward he simply raises his foot up and attempts to kick her in the head but he is off balance.
-
Suzume took advantage of his imbalance and delivered a couple of slashes to his arms and chest before she quickly moved back to avoid tempting another of his heavy and forceful attacks.

Edited by ImaDrizzit: 1/7/2018 6:53:13 PMThe slashes run deep drawing blood in a few places. But if the Dragonborn was in any sort of pain he didn’t show it. The dragonborn goes into a roll closing the ground between the two. When he comes out of the roll he try’s to sweep the woman with his sword, then he stands up and preforms a uppercut bashing her in the chin with the pommel of his sword.
-
Suzume was somewhat caught off guard by the attack, and she took the blow to her chin and stepped back, stunned for a few moments. She quickly reasserted herself though, composing her thoughts again and collecting herself as she took up another stance and then surged forwards, moving in one direction before quickly dashing in another direction to trick her opponent, and then delivering several slashes afterwards and even attempting a stab to a shoulder.
-
Her opponent had over 500 years of experience and would not fall for that trick. The second she sidestepped he stuck his leg out to trip her then slammed the flat of his sword against her back Th send her to the ground.
-
Suzume again took the hit, and was sent to the ground. She groaned quietly, but then got to her feet again, taking a deep breath and recovering herself and her focus again. She was outmatched in the fact that she was up against someone with five hundred years of experience where she only had nineteen or so.
-
“Surrender is always a option”, he taunted He went into another downward chop with his sword.
-
Suzume brought her sword up to meet his, and as their blades met a deafening clang sounded out, and a blinding burst of golden light engulfed Suzume’s blade.
-
The sudden burst of light makes the Dragonborn stumble back a bit but not enough to show any weakness. From there he will swing his blade to the right at the woman’s side and then try to pommel bash her stomach.
-
Suzume saw this coming, and she actually ducked beneath the blade as it traveled towards her stomach, proceeding to cut a straight line up the side of his leg and roll out of the way.
-
[spoiler] What direction did you roll back left or right?[/spoiler] The Dragonborn will move back pick up a rock and chuck it at her, the he will charge in with a forward thrust.
-
[spoiler]Right.[/spoiler] Suzume focuses on the rock thrown at her and steps forward, swiftly cutting it in two before she brings her blade back and slashes at the air, sending a golden beam of energy hurtling through the air at her opponent from the blade of her sword.
-
The Dragonborn will leap over the beam of energy and he jumps incredibly high and far. From the air he will jab at her face land and slash at her legs.
-
Suzume managed to step back in time to avoid the attack aimed at her head, but she suffered a cut to her legs from the second attack. She wasted no time reacting to the wound and quickly rushed forwards, jumping up at her opponent and delivering a stunning blow with the hilt of her blade to her opponent’s jaw before she landed and performed a few slashes at his chest.
-
He got hit bu the hilt bash wich would have sent a normal person to the ground, but he was no normal person. He brought his blade up to block the chest strikes bringing the woman’s blade up with it from their he put his left leg behind her and kneed her with his right leg and tripping her with the left.
-
With that, Suzume gasped in pain and fell backwards, but it still did not seem as though she would give up. She still pulled herself up onto one knee, holding her sword in front of her with both hands in case he attacked further.

Edited by ImaDrizzit: 1/7/2018 9:48:38 PM“Surrender is a option” he said again “but your not surrendering so I’ll take it easy on you. He went and put his sword down and put his shield on his sword arm. With that he charged at the woman and tried to hit her sword to the side with his shield and deliver a punch to her face.

Suzume watched him closely, awaiting his next move while she planned hers. She retained her current fighting stance while she studied her opponent for any indication of his next move.

[spoiler] I edited the response above and put a attack in it.[/spoiler]
