[open] Axes of the Dwarves! The Dwarves are upon you!
Who: OPEN!!! Anyone and everyone is welcome here, please drop in!
When: March 15th.
Where: The Thorsson backyard.
What: Sparring! Characters who have no weapons yet but want to try out something, or who want to try out new weapons, are welcome as well!
Warnings: Violence.
Imagine that there was a network post asking for people to come to a afternoon of sparring and training/trying to force echoes. There was a specific emphasis in the post for people to not bring powers or firearms into the mix, only all kinds of short range weapons - swords, axes, knives, maces, halberds, anything really. A part of the idea, as was explained, was not only to provide a place to try out different weapons but also to have multiple people use weapons in a small area, allowing for battle echoes.
So the day has come! The place is the backyard of the Thorsson's downtown store/private buildings, a relatively large areal closed off with buildings belonging to the family on all sides.
There are all kinds of weapons - real ones and some larp weapons as well - on a table in a corner of the backyard that cannot be used for sparring since swings, a sandbox and a bench are located there. Protective gear like chainmail and helmets can be found as well. Some refreshments in form of apples, juice boxes and bananas, all in open boxes, have been placed next to them along with water in bottles.
So those that brought no weapons can borrow those proffered, and those that brought their own ones can try out others as well.

One axe was more than enough for Fil. While his past self carried throwing axes instead there was none of that available today. Not that it mattered, that pulse he got covered using this bigger and heavier axe as well.
no subject
"Guess you've never heard that age and treachery trumps youth and idealism any day."
And Fil, you get no warning - Hjalti's taking a step back and immediately pulling the axe in his right hand from his shoulder, swinging it in a slightly diagonal crescent arc right at Fil's face and right shoulder. Right behind that comes the left blade in a steeper, lower swing, aiming for Fil's torso. The axes are both dull but Hjalti's a strong man and he isn't pulling his swings at all, so Fil better get out of the way or block him, quick.
no subject
He would have replied that that quip about age and treachery, but Fil was then too busy knocking away the first blow to his face and shoulder, then hurriedly blocking the second blow to his stomach. He grunted as he did so, the blows being far heavier and faster than he expected, before responding with a blow of his own to Hjalti's right thigh.
