Session Notes

 * Cerda Hammer wakes to find Riphi doing her morning workout, and tries to match her.
 * The team organise their equipment before moving out.
 * Tyrol Gravehearth spies Reginal Francis and asks about fight times. Reggie explains the tournament formats and explains he is the sponsor for Into the Vale and wishes Tyrol well and hopes to see them in the final.
 * Upon leaving the cells a Pseudodragon tells Chaya Seto to follow as her first round match is the opener.
 * While waiting a figure in the shadows, a member of the Assassin Guild Cyanus, makes contact as a professional courtesy.
 * Dungrad Emberbelly has saved the group some seats and they join him. Suddenly Gas has latched herself to Sneek Ash-hide's arm. He tries to dissuade her, but she seems to be under the impression they are a "thing" now. She does leave giving Cerda evils, then terrorising her way into the upper ring, as her teammates look on emotionlessly.
 * Chaya enters the arena pit, followed by her opponent, Rose the Rapier.
 * Chaya is able to get the jump and make an assassinate, but Rose is able to turn and the hit, as big as it was, is not a much as Chaya expected.
 * Chaya makes Rose chase after her, initially maintaining her fencing style stance, she catches Chaya with her rapier, but only half the time for only half as much.
 * Rose finally starts losing her composure chasing after the much much quicker felinian.
 * Chaya switches to throwing her daggers at range - one throw of her Dagger of Life Stealing, it sinks into Rose's neck, who drops her rapier, then to her knees, then to the ground.
 * Chaya wins!!
 * The crowd cheer, and seem to acknowledge Chaya when she helps Rose to her feet. Rose is still upset, but gives a nod in return.
 * The next solo first round match is the human woman, Jette Jezebel, versus another felinian, and crowd favourite, Gina Pumpkin.
 * Jette is swirling her scythe around, but doesn’t seem in a hurry to start. Gina starts lighting bombs, chucking multiple into Jette’s area. Multiple explosions go off kicking up a big sand cloud.
 * As it clears the sand particles in the air show that Jette is protected by a shield. She reaches out her hand forward towards Gina. The felinian stumbles slightly. In a flash Jette rushes in scythe spinning. Each hit brings larger blasts of energy like waves.
 * Panicked, Gina tries to run, but Jette remains in step, and unleashes another volley of attacks. It is clear this isn’t a match-up… its a mugging.
 * Mercifully Ms. Pumpkin remains down. In a one-sided affair, Jette has beaten a favourite, to a stunned crowd. She bumps past the medics on their way out and just not stay long enough to soak in the win.
