Introduction
Here you will find three things:
- Rogues seeking a Firekin to duel with and earn membership into the pride and;
- Firekin volunteering themselves to duel with said rogues
- Firekin wanting to duel with other Firekin
Losing brings no consequence to a Firekin, but instead, brings a sense of honour and allows one to hone their skills against a range of different opponents.
If a Firekin manages to win ten duels against rogues, they will recieve a new title in proof of their success in one on one combat.
All Firekin may volunteer to put themselves up against a rogue. This means that any member from Captain to cub-sitter, so long as they feel able to put up a good fight. Seeking duelists will be partnered up with another of similar age.
The duels are fair and honourable and it will not be acceptable for either participant to be badly hurt whilst taking part.
All you have to do to take part is post with the following:
- Your character's name and image
- Duelling partner wanted (rogue or Firekin)
- how you would like to be contacted (PM, AIM etc...)
By posting here, you are allowing Firekin members / aspiring rogues to contact you to arrange a duel. Once you have found a match, please follow the rules stated in the joining thread and create a duelling rp. If you have any questions, PM the mule. For duel examples, please see below.
Reminder
This is just a reminder for the duel system:
Official duels must be between two EQUAL age fighters for it to be considered a duel.
It's perfectly fine if you want to stage play fights, but please remember that a "win" against an older opponent carries absolutely no weight in the pride.

Joining the Pride The Rogue Joining Process - Battle System
Once your application is approved:
- Check the duel thread in the subforum to see if there are any firekin available, or post your own. If no match is found, one of the pride owners will happily use one of their own firekin for your joining process. You can find the duel thread here.
- Once a fighting partner is found, decide between you who will begin the duel RP.
- Only one joining duel may be created at a time. The duel will need to be finished before creating the next. If the other participant does not respond in a weeks time, a new duel may be started regardless of completion
RPing the duel:
- The character who is going to roll first will set up the battle thread in the sub forum. Mark the RP as [duel] .
- Each RPer takes it in turns to randomise five numbers between 1 and 3 (one number at a time - totalling 10 posts altogether).
- A roll of:
1 = miss / failed attack
2 = bide
3 = a hit / successful attack
- Once the rolls have been completed, the RPers will go back and edit their characters response into the posts, one at a time.
- A duel is deemed complete when each RPer has edited into their five posts with the appropriate responses.
- When the duel is complete, PM the link of the RP to the mule where your characters will then be made into full members.
Determining the winner:
The winner of the duel is the character with the highest total when all numbers from the randomised moves are added together. So, for instance:
Ea:
1st roll: 1
2nd roll: 3
3rd roll: 3
4th roll: 2
5th roll: 1
TOTAL: 10
Fia:
1st roll: 2
2nd roll: 2
3rd roll: 3
4th roll: 1
5th roll: 1
TOTAL: 9
From the example above, you can see that Ea is the winner, her moves totalling a 10 which beats Fia’s 9. If there is a tie, the rogue is also permitted to become a pride member.
>> For a live example please go here
What happens next?
The winner is accepted as a full member of the pride. The owner of the rogue must then PM the mule with a link to their completed RP. Once it is approved, they may submit for a cert change.
The loser is sent away from the pride, but encouraged to continue training and return again to challenge and participate in another duel when their skills are improved. A returning rogue (one who has participated in a duel before) does not need to go through the joining application process. Instead they can simply apply to be partnered up with a combatant in a week’s time. This continues until the rogue is successful in the duel. A duel needs to be complete (all posts edited with RP responses) before you can try for a second duel - and so on.
End Note:
And to finish! It must be said that there's no consequence to a losing firekin. Combatants will be expected to be good sports. The battles are fuels, not life and death struggles and are done in good faith.

FAQ- Duel System
Okay~ Here to answer your questions about our new little game thing! First, a brief summary of why we are trying out this system.
1. What happens if a rogue loses more then five times?
At the moment, they'll need to continue to try. You're still completing rps with the character, and we will be aware of people trying very hard. If it ever got to be around ten RPs all lost due to bad luck, well, we may step in. However, we really would look highly on someone who kept rping. In some ways, the joining process is just an attempt to integrate you more into the pride then just a meeting with a reagent. Since you can technically battle more then one pride member- your lion will end up joining the pride with quite a few frenemies under their belt.
Remember, a draw also will count as a 'win' for a rogue. So really, rogues have more chances then loses.
2. But my character is an experienced fighter!
This is probably going to be the biggest issue. For rogues joining, it's simply something that is going to have to be tolerated. If loosing one good-natured duel totally destroys your character, then they might not be a good match for our pride. ;[ Firekin are a race of fighters, yes. But, they must also fall in rank too. We don't want characters who consider themselves to be unbeatable. Namely- we want people who can place nice with each other.
3. Okay. I have a firekin who is an experienced fighter! I don't want them to lose to ugly-face rogues!
I will say this in bold caps underline. YOUR FIREKIN CAN NOT BE "CALLED OUT" TO A DICE DUEL.**** If you have a character in the pride that you don't want to fight, don't want to lose, well... don't RP in a dice fight! XD
The general idea is this. Most people will use one of their characters for dice fights, then rest will RP fights normally, or not fight at all. For example: Ea will eventually be my dice fight character. Ea is a character I consider able to tolerate the occasional loss.
Another thing to note, again. These battles are not life and death struggles. We don't care how you RP the dice fight. Don't let it stress you out if you think your firekin is going to have to constantly defend it's status in the pride. <33 It won't.
4. Okay. So it's all good. But I think we could do better! What about handicaps and level ups?! Come on!
PM us your system! :3 For the moment, we want to keep this as easy-peasy as possible. In the future, if enough people like it, we will expand to incorporate battle knowledge and such.
Have a question? Send it in!
***Unless your character is named Yugi.
