Seraphina Feldspar
It was the day Seraphina had been dreading. The road leading up to it had been paved with bruises, bumps and blunt trauma. She wasn’t built for this. Half the students at the academy could tear her in half with a single thought and a smile. But by some miracle, her first opponent in the bracket was not someone who was completely terrifying.
Declan Tormay. Wunderkind extraordinaire who passed the erudite exam in year one. He was someone she could beat, she thought. She hoped. A boy who by all accounts had paper for skin and ink for blood. I can do this, she reminded herself, saluting Declan with her sword.
Wait, was that the right salute? There were so many intricacies to keep track of when it came to the rules of combat.
Sera resisted the urge to tap the fingernail of her index finger against her teeth and took up a fencing stance instead. It was difficult whenever she had to do anything related to being dauntless. Some called her spineless, delicate. The truth was she had a heart too big for the career shaped coffin that her parents were trying to force her into. But sadly, she was getting competent at cutting the edges off of that heart until it resembled the shape they wanted.
“HAI!” she yelped, striking forward with the blade.

1155 -- Shallow Cut on Cheek -- 3.5 damage
Oh, she thought miserably as she caught her a opponent with only a glancing blow on the cheek. I am going to lose.
