Strict Training (CLOSED)

Silverfang shook some reeds that got stuck on her feathery silver fur once she reached the riverbank of the main source of food and the reason why Riverclan was capable to survive. She looked back at her new apprentice, Orchidpaw, one of the daughters of the leader and her half-cousin. "This is the river where we hunt the fish of our fresh-kill pile. Today, we will start with battle training and then with swimming lessons. Are you ready for this, Orchidpaw?" She mewed seriously, making sure that the she-cat was going to do what she told her to do in order to become a proper apprentice. Silverfang wanted to be known as a good mentor capable to train strong and loyal warrior. Orchidpaw won't be the exception.

Orchidpaw held her mentor's gaze with her own blue-green eyes. She nodded with a serious expression. She was super excited on the inside. She knew how experienced Silverfang was and was going to do whatever it took to become a great warrior while still helping out anyone that needed it.

"Okay, see what I do and try to do the same." The silvery she-cat wasn't used to quiet apprentices but she didn't mind it that much. Her odd eyes were fixed on a bunch of reeds that would be perfect for training. Crouching a bit, the warrior raised one paw quickly and slashed the plants with one unsheathed paw. Then, she returned to the usual battle crouch before turning her gaze to Orchidpaw. "Now's your turn."

Silverfang used Front Paw Strike, dealing 11 damage and costing 10 stamina.

OOC:
Battle system is a bit more complex than hunting system. First of all, all cats and predators have stats: HP and SP. Depending on the rank of your cat, you have more or less of these stats (if you want to check them, use this: Rank System). As you might see, Silverfang has 60 HP and 200 SP because she's a Warrior. On the other side, Orchidpaw only has 20 HP and 80 SP because she's still an apprentice.

Now, let's go to the battle itself. This site counts with a lot of battle moves that you can see here: Battle System. Each move requires a different amount of stamina and, depending on the rank, every battle move deals a certain amount of damage. For example, the move Front paw strike can be used by apprentices and higher ranks and it only requires 10 stamina. However, an apprentice can only deal 6 damage with that move while an experienced warrior can deal 11 damage using the same amount of stamina or SP.

There are also special moves that can be used by each clan. For example, Shadowclan has Night Ambush and Mud Slap while Riverclan has Underwater Push-Off and Underwater Clinch.

Another important thing that you must know is that there are moves that cause the "stun effect". For example, Leap-and-Hold is considered a "stun/pin move". That's considered as a stunning or pinning move because it pins your opponent for a few turns and your enemy can't attack you while you're using it. In addition, the amount of turns while your opponent is stunned depends on the Effect Dice. Remember when you selected the Hunting Dice before? Well, it's the same idea but instead of choosing the Hunting Dice, you choose the Effect Dice.

For more information, I recommend you to check the main rules during the fight: Battle Rules. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me :3.

OOC: Okay. I get it now! :)

IC: The young apprentice observed her mentor carefully before attempting the battle crouch herself and inching towards the reeds. She lifted an unsheathed paw and mimicking Silverfang's previous actions. She then turned her head to see if she did well.

OOC: Glad you understand it! Now, let's try Leap-and-Hold just to see if you understood the system perfectly ;D

IC: The she-cat watched at the apprentice with narrowed eyes and nodded satisfied by her first attempt. Silverfang approached the apprentice to continue the lesson. "Good job but you must strengthen your muscles for a more powerful attack. Intensified training should be enough in the future but at least you learn the battle crouch pretty well. Now, try this." The she-cat glanced a bush and she crouched for a second before stretching her hind legs to jump. The gracefully landed on the bush pretending it was a warrior and she pinned it down with her claws on its "shoulders".

"Sometimes, the best strategy is to pin or stun your opponent to make them lose their energy and strength, just like this. You must put all your weight on them and slash their back until you can't hold them anymore. Now, do it."

Silverfang used Leap-and-Hold, dealing 9 damage and costing 10 stamina. Bush is pinned for two turns.

Orchidpaw observed her mentor once again and once Silverfang was done with her demonstration, the apprentice began to position herself to face the bush. She couched and then leaped onto it, not as gracefully though. She then attempted to pin it like Silverfang did. Orchidpaw then turned to look at her mentor to see if she approved.

OOC: Perfect. Now, your opponent should post as "pinned" in a real fight before you post again. That's the turn they're pinned ;D Bit, for now, just post after this post.

IC:

Silverfang kept pinning the bush, showing the apprentice how she should weaken her enemy in battle in that position. Then, she turned her head to the deputy's son before speaking up again. "You don't talk too much, right Orchidpaw? Well, anyways, that was good. Now, jump away from your enemy slashing its back and landing on your four paws. You must be ready for a counterattack and be quick. Now!"

Leap-and-Hold is still in effect, dealing 9 damage. Bush is pinned for one more turn.

OOC: As you might see, no stamina was lost because the pinning move is in effect. That's a rule of the move too ;D

Orchidpaw began to do as she was told. She slashed the bush and jumped away from it, landing on her paws. She wasn't as good as Silverfang but it was as close as it could be.
