Hey man, got a few things that need to be hashed out. This isn't an attack, but I'm clearly missing some things here.

First, I used the term gauntlet but did say forearm, terminology mistake on my part. So, you're actually biting down on his forearm. Again, bad use of words on my part.

The dagger Nicoli grabbed was the one that was just thrown while Dax was swinging and was sticking into his arm, not one that had hit his leg. So, it has far less to travel from there to Dax's jaw. Might want to rethink the mechanics of withdrawing a long sword from your chest and interposing it between Nicolis hand and Dax's jaw.

It kind of irks me that you would feel the need to mention Nicoli's own wounds but ignore your own other than using the term 'damaged.'

In the post before last, when you swing into Nicoli you had never stated that Dax landed on the ground, leaving me to think that you were literally hanging onto Nicoli. It probably seems trivial, but that is the only reason why Nicoli even tried turning his body to put Dax in the swords path. Because all the strength wouldn't matter if you have no grounding with which to resist.

I don't mind losing. I fully expect to in this fight. However, be it simply forgetting to mention your own wounds or ignoring them. You originally mention that Dax's arm that he earlier used to block (but haven't stated which) had been fractured and was useless to wield a weapon with any skill or finesse. Yet, despite the claim you've swung on a rope and thrown daggers with some accuracy and continue to use both arms with only a token mentioning of the injuries, but have them impacting your character very little.

You mention super strength and agility on the character sheet, but nothing about becoming stronger because of his demonic blood. You also mention nothing of supernatural durability or pain tolerance to justify ignoring his injuries.

Sorry if it sounds like I'm b*tching. But I feel like you are taking a lot for granted.
