Dalyn Solus versus Crystal Krzye
The Trial of Skill was meant to test a warrior’s ability to work alone and was the second stage of the Mandalorian tournament. In this round of fighting, two teams of one would battle for supremacy and to render the other fighter incapable of fighting back. If a Mandalorian could not work and defend themselves in single combat, then they were no use to the crusade. The Mand’alor and War Council would see who could not hold their own in this duel.
Today’s round would be located within a threatening arena on the Inner Rim jungle moon of Dxun filled with tall trees, thick underbrush, and ropy hanging vines. There are a few meters in between each tree, and vines hang from the thick foliage throughout the entirety of the arena. The arena is dimly lit, and the sounds of apex predators can be heard in the distance. Cutting the arena in half diagonally from one corner to another is a rushing river seven meters wide. In the middle of the river is a narrow rope bridge, and halfway between that and the arena corners of the river are flat boulders of various sizes dotting across the surface, close enough together to use as a hopping bridge. Vines hang over the river. Halfway between the river and the dry corners of the arena are clusters of tree platforms.
The two fighters would start opposite each other in the arena. Their loadouts, as before, were randomized.
Dalyn (@Rom) would be outfitted in the torso, upper arm, and lower leg armor of forest green medium beskar’gam with only one listed functions (since he lacked a helmet) and a grapple line and would carry a single timed-fuse concussion grenade and two stolen Deucalian Kastaöxis. Additionally, he had several pieces of rope hanging off of his armor. One piece was 3m long, one piece was 1m long, and the other was 10m long. Each had variable diameters and rated capacities.
Crystal (@Algarus) would be outfitted in a full suit of sand-gold heavy beskar’gam with a visor that’s prone to fogging up and concealed blade and would carry a beviin light repeater with 20 shots of ammo and a backup dart pistol with two darts ready to load. One was a very powerful sedative and the other was an extremely powerful aphrodisiac. They’re not labeled which is which.
Several droids floated around, streaming the fight for the rest of the Mandalorian people. The Mand’alor and War Council would watch as well, judging the fighters on their skill, tenacity, and ability to adapt.
