[[Rules of the Game Here]]

Joachim was used to fiddling around with music, playing flute and composing music in his free time however he couldn't. Not that the reaper didn't think the clan of War didn't like music (though he did wonder if they really had music or at least what he considered music) but he didn't want to run the risk of offending any of the members or appear to be challenging any of them to battle. Instead his flute remained tucked far away in this pocket as he headed towards what was directed as the training grounds. His first goal in mind, was crafting a weapon.

He had little to no skill in hand to hand combat, in fact as the frown on his face deepened, he was sure his sister had more skills in punching then he dd. That toppled on top of the embarrassing idea of having to ask another more capable student of sparring with him seemed out of the question unless he some sort of weapon in his hand. Hence why he now sat in the same room with a rather formidable craft horsewoman.

He gave her rather weak smile as she peered over him, almost grunting in disapproval as he held is hand over various materials to craft his knife. Yet he managed to pick up a piece of bone, cold and smooth to the palm of his hand with a pointed end, he wasn't sure how incredible strong or long lasting it would be but it suited him. He continued to work on it, making the point even sharper and the hilt of where the bone sat in his hand smoother and fit comfortably. Joachim wasn't much for decoration, so the idea of rough leather as a hilt seemed to hurt and feathers and beads were...well to pretty for him to want to put on a weapon.

When he was done he looked at his new weapon, it wasn't the worse and it was functional but it sure wasn't pretty.

Rubbing the knife in his hand, he peered at the mannequin that stood in the den. There was plenty of marks from where others had attempted to test their own newly made weapons, yet the idea of stabbing something was still.... weird. It was like the idea of stabbing his sister's doll with a butter knife at a tea party, expect this mannequin wasn't wearing frills.

Joachim looked at his bone knife again and closing his eyes tightly he held up one hand in front of him, pointing the end of the blade at the chest of the mannequin, his other hand was tucked on the small of his back. Opening his eyes he quickly moved forward and jabbed towards his target.

"Hrrmm... wasn't as bad as I thought," He replied looking at the knife that started to have a faint crack running from the point down to the handle.

So far the blade despite it's appearance was doing fairly well. Though the cut he made in the mannequin wasn't long nor did it look as if it could do anything fatal to an opponent. Though if the goal was only to injure then it was sufficient Joachim thought as he rubbed it in his hands again.

"Alright... round two...." He replied holding the knife in front of him again. Taking a few brisk leaps he jabbed the mannequin again this time in the shoulder. He could hear the crack deepen but it seemed to still hold together.

The damage he had done to the shoulder was minuscule. Obviously he had the skill that if this was a battle and he had to fight he could at least make a standing object bleed however if it came down to actually maiming he wasn’t going to be successful.

“Alright…. I guess this will be round three…” Joachim replied looking at the blade, the crack didn’t seem to be too bad however it did look as if it was running from the tip of the blade down to the midpoint of the handle.

Taking his usual stance of holding the blade out in front his feet spread apart he took a few leaping steps and stuck the tip of the blade into the abdomen of the mannequin as a loud snap sounded.

Pulling the blade out Joachim realized that the crack caused the bone to split in half. So much for his weapon, though he wondered if he could fix it?
No, the look on the horsewomen’s face told him that he had spent too much time in her hut. So instead he started to slide the pieces in his pocket, which resulted in a grunt and glare from her.

“Oh… sorry…. I’ll just… leave them here then.” Joachim replied trying to give her a faint smile before scurrying out her way.

[[Round 3
