Archived:Luther Amery vs Shad Rustler - Round 1 - Luther wins by default

Air Arena

• The objects in the arena have been charmed to almost defy gravity, floating around, boulders, rocks, etc.
• At the base level of this arena is just normal ground with vegetation/shrubs/grass and trees, as well as varying size terrain, ranging from a few feet tall, to much taller
• Floating high above in the air is small islands, some with greenery and vines hanging down towards the ground, ranging in size and height from the ground, so that even if a person didn't have the power of flight, if they are an adept climber, everything is spaced out enough they could climb as high as possible, as well as utilise some of the smaller floating debree to aid in their climb. Some of the floating islands even have small waterfalls
• Between the floating islands and the tall peeks and trees, there are plenty of shadows and places to hide
• On two sides of the arena there are 2 automaton birds stationed, currently in "off" mode, they are roughly 6 feet tall.
• The arena is open to the sky and elements
• On each end of the arena, on top of some large pillars, are pyres, full of fire and wood. The fire that burns within the pyres can not be extinguished, but if the fire is removed from the pyres, it can then be put out.

Shad Rustler -Child of Nyx -Midnight Thief  – 18:19, May 1 (UTC) *dashes into the arena, then forward rolls into a shadowy spot under one of the floating islands. He is wearing his Dark Suit, and unsheathes his silver daggers. His gaze goes toward one of the automation birds, and a idea goes off in his mind*

Luther Amery ~ Son of Dionysus
	*he enters the areana and makes his way to the base cautiously looking for his opponent, he takes out his sword and activates his shield*     ~ 14:42, October 27, 2013 (UTC)

Shad: Jumps up and grabs one of the vines underneath the floating island, and begins to climb upward. Hanging off the vine with one hand, he spreads the other in a welcoming gesture and grins as he spots his opponent 6 yards away. Luther!!

Luther: he uses his powers to manipulate the vine causing it to wrap tightly around his opponents hand, his eyes scan the area for a more vegetated spot

Shad: Unsheathes one of his knives and cuts the vine. His knife slips out of his hand as he falls wildly until he spots a boulder floating about 10 feet in the air beneath him. He reachs out and grasps the floating boulder, and climbs up onto it, then conjures up a shadow knife and throws it at Luther.

Luther: He raises his shield to block the knife then uses his powers to induce the state of mild drunkenness on his opponent.

Shad: Smiles as he becomes dizzy. Jumps off the boulder and grabs a treebranch, then lands safely on the ground. I know what your doing. Fortunately for me, I've done a bit of underage drinking while I was a Midnight Thief. Still, I'm pretty dizzy. Draws out his second knife as he runs unevenly towards Luther, who is about 4 yards way.

Luther: Mumbles something about how the alcohol must have fried his brain baefore tightening his grip on his sword and getting in a defensive position.

Shad: Runs at Luther and prepares to thrust him with the knife, then dives to the left in a large shadowy spot underneath one of the floating islands. Sheaths his knife as his Dark Suit makes him one with the shadows.

Luther: What the f*ck? He tenses and backs up a little his eys scanning the area for any sign of Shad.

Shad: Runs forward from the shadows and kicks Luther in the space behind his left shin. The blow causes a painful reaction upon his own leg and he flies backward onto the ground.

Luther: He stumbles back a little and let's out a cry out pain mixed with surprise, he shifts some of his weight to the other side and comes at Shad planning on stabbing at him.

Shad: Goes wideyed as he gets up painfully from the ground. Pulls out his knife and conjures a Shadow Shield, taking a defensive stance. Oh yeah, come at me bro!

Luther: He lunges at Shad and attempts to stab at his shoulder.

Shad: Uses his knife to block the blow, then bashes Luther with his shield.

Luther: Grunts in pain and stumbles back a little blood trickles from his nose and he shakes his head little to clear his head, he readies himself for another attack.

Shad: Creates a rope of shadows and rolls away from his opponent, then coils the rope into a lasso and throws it at Luther.

Lutherhe slices at it using the sword severing one end but the sudden movement causes him to stumble back a little and regrip his sword
