All the other champions gasp and a few step forward to protest. The King, however, waves them away and smiles, "You challenge the King of Cutlery, do you? Very well. It shall be so."
”I’ve fought many men, you’ll make a good practice fight.”
Seán drops his Hurley and sliotar, and suddenly in his hands is a steel sword, glowing brightly in the light.

Seán drops his Hurley and sliotar, and suddenly in his hands is a steel sword, glowing brightly in the light.
"I must choose my weapon. Cobble, bringforth the royal armory!" The goblin with the viking helmet rushes forth carrying a big bag of "weapons". He pulls out the tools and lays them out in the grass for the King to choose from. You see a tooth brush, a pot, a baseball, a tin can tied to a stick, an arrow snapped in two, a snake, and three golden apples. Dmitri picks up the three apples and begins to juggle them. "I have made my choice. The Apples of Perun shall serve me well." The goblin nervously packs up the rest of the weaponry.
Still juggling the apples, Dmitri calls out to the goblin, "Cobble! Announce the official rules!"
The goblin sits up straight and cries out, "The rules for the royal duel between the King of Cutlery, Lord of the World and All That Is In It, and Sean, er..." the goblin whispers to you, "Do you have a surname? Any titles?"

“Seán, the army slayer.”

"Sean, the army slayer!" proclaims the goblin. "First, this duel is for sport and contest! Death is prohibited! Second, the fighting will continue until one of the combating parties says the words, "duck soup". Whoever says "duck soup" forfeits the match and their opponent wins. Third, the loser must give the winner something of value as a reward. Do both parties agree to the terms?"

Dmitri nods as he juggles.
Seán does the same, with the sword staying in his hand.

*So... I don't actually have a statblock for this guy so real combat probably won't work. Are you okay with just taking turns narrating their actions and describing their combat without mechanics?*
"Very well. When this trumpet is sounded, you may begin." The goblin declares. He raises a curled horn to his lips and lets out a resounding blast.
*Sounds good, narrating works great. I also wasn't expecting you to choose the King.*
Dmitri hurls one of the golden apples straight into the air. He catches the other two in each hand. The apple he threw arcs high in the air, shines with light, and lets out a peal of thunder. Electricity slithers across the apples shimmering surface. A bolt of golden lightning races to the ground and scorches the earth a few feet in front of you.
Sean is able to dodge the lightning, though you do feel the flash of heat. More bolts twist and arch from the hovering apple, criss-crossing the space in between you and Dmitri, making the area incredibly perilous terrain.
Winding your way through the web of lightning, you manage to get close enough to the King of Cutlery. Electricity dances across the forks and spoons in his crown and each one of his fists is closed around a golden apple. As soon as you get close enough to him, he swings an arm in an attempt to punch.
A donkey watching from the sidelines snorts in disapproval.
The sword smashes into Dmitri's chest, sending him crashing to the ground. The keys around his chest seem to have protected him from being sliced in half, but he still felt the blow. He rolls back up to his feet and raises his fists in preparation for another attack.
This time Dmitri slides to the side just in time. As the blade flies by him, he strikes at it with the apple in his hand. As the apple comes in contact with the sword, you feel an immense electrical shock slide up the metal and into your arm.
You touch the apple and it burns your hand. Suddenly, Dmitri's other fist swings and hits your shoulder sending blazing electricity through you. He begins a flurry of punches that both bludgeon and electrify on impact.
”I’ve fought many men, you’ll make a good practice fight.”
Seán drops his Hurley and sliotar, and suddenly in his hands is a steel sword, glowing brightly in the light.

"Very well. When this trumpet is sounded, you may begin." The goblin declares. He raises a curled horn to his lips and lets out a resounding blast.
*I just realized this place has an arena. Let's make use of it and say that this duel takes place there.*
*yeah. I also have not stat block, I thought that we were just going to do narrating.*
Seán charges at impossible speeds, his sword ready.

“What the?-“ Seán attempts to jump, does he succeed?
