Luckily I won't have to worry about magic ^^.
I've got melee combat to worry about though :/.
Speaking of which... how exactly are we supposed to handle melee/ranged combat ?
Do we explain our characters moves/tecnhiques, as well as those of the monsters/people we are fighting ?
I guess I'll write out how I'm assuming we'll be handling combat... correct me if I'm wrong of course.
Ignis heard a deafening roar some twenty feet behind him, and bolted towards a tree as an axe whistled past. The axe grazed his left arm, leaving a several inch gash along the length of his leather sleeve. Ignis swore under his breath, and gathering his senses, peeked out from behind the tree. He saw a brutish red humanoid standing 7 feet tall creeping closer towards him, it carried what looked like a fence post, and had some form of dog leashed to his hand. The dog was an ugly creature, foaming and growling insanely as it barked in Ignis's direction. The red beast caught sight of Ignis once more, and grinned as he let go of the strap that was holding his hound.
The dog streaked towards Ignis, and launched itself at him when it was several feet away. Ignis quickly ducked under, and drawing his katana, thrust it up into the air as the hound sailed overhead. The blade drove into the dog's gut, and tore a deep wound along it's length, the momentum of it's jump becoming it's undoing. The dog hit the ground with a thud, innards spilling out as the force of the fall was dispersed through it's body. The hound barked feebly at Ignis, and after thrasing around for several seconds, went limp.
Distracted, Ignis did not notice the red brute rushing towards him. He looked up in time just to duck out of the way of the makeshift cudgel, and backed up to avoid the next attack. Putting several feet between himself and the brute, Ignis jerked his right hand towards it, which loosed the knife strapped to his arm, and sent it sailing towards the monster. The fiend howled as the knife sunk deep into the flesh of it's shoulder. Seemingly unphased, it rushed Ignis once more and caught him in the shin with his club. Ignis was sent sprawling to the ground, and had to roll aside to avoid a follow up attack.
As his aggressor brought it's club up for another swipe, Ignis threw a handul of dry dirt into it's eyes. The fiend, now barely able to see, was at the mercy of Ignis's blade. Ignis rolled to the side to avoid any further attacks, as the monster was now flailing his club around to defend himself. Ignis drew a knife out of his boot, aimed, and threw it towards it's leg. Luckily, it sunk into it's kneecap, and brought it to the ground with a roar. Ignis wasted no time, drew his second blade, his Wakizashi, with his left hand, and sprinted towards the fiend. In seconds he was upon it, raining blows with right and left blades. After several seconds of constant slices, the beast stopped moving. After a minute of exhausted breathing, Ignis ripped his 2 knives from the beast's kneecap and shoulder.
Ignis tore a tooth from it's maw, added it to a bracelet he kept, before continuing on his merry way.
.... Something like that, I hope ?
Be aware that this is my first time writing out a detailed combat scenario, so I guess it's better to fail at it here, than in the actual RP.
