This. This is what he was waiting for. What he was convinced to be his shining moment. Robyn was a new knight, and if he could unhorse Lord Leo Tyrell? Well, then he will gain the reputation he sought. It was already done today, by a knight that is rapidly gaining Robyn's respect and trust, Ser Aerion. This will be the deciding factor, for Robyn. Either he is ready to be a knight, or he isn't. And these passes could be that impactful of a moment on him. He saved Lady Falyse, and now
He would beat Lord Leo Tyrell
This is a major question, because I was thinking about spending a destiny point here, would spending it to impose -1D to all his tests apply to everything he does, including the Attack and SiS for the entire match, or is it just one of those rolls?
Also, would taking turning 1B into a test die also do it for both of my rolls for the match, or just one?
Would imposing "Heightened Stakes" Be an agreed upon character thing, or is it just something we do OOC? Because Robyn would also do that, for this match

Would effect everything.
Heightened Stakes is basically a tactical IC choice (must be declared in advance), both can do it for twice the fun.

Robyn looked across the way towards his opponent, letting loose a whoop and a holler to try to get the crowd to rally for him, taking off his helm to call out to Lord Leo, “My Lord, the day has been long, and the tournament well fought by all. What do you say to giving this crowd something to remember? Something that they will talk about for long after they travel back to their homes?” He beams, raising his lance towards the audience to get them to cheer again.
(Robyn would spend a DP to make his rolls all -1D, and is attempting to Heighten the Stakes on his end)

Lord Tyrell has lost count over how many youngsters have made similar challenges over the years, most would not have secured draws in their three prior matches though, this young one knew what he was doing in the saddle to be sure, but the longthorn makes a good natured remark that young Ser Robyn has yet to earn the right to talk tough.

Robyn lets out a laugh, nodding along at his statement, "That is true my lord. But one thing is for certain. One of us is going to end this match on the ground, and the other placed firmly in his saddle. And I," He adjusts his position, tapping the saddle, "Don't intend on leaving mine." His voice was certainly playful, and was more for the crowd than it was an actual threat, but Robyn had immense truth behind his words. He knew that this clash would be the deciding factor in if he was worth his salt. He better ride hard, and do it well. Robyn looked to his father, beaming before turning back to Lord Leo, "My lord, a wager. Should you win this match, House Starkwood will pay for any wedding that you deem worthy and give your blessing to. This could be for your daughter, one of your knights, as you choose. But," His smile widens as he speaks, "Should I win, you will pay for any wedding of my choice and you will give it your blessing." He expected this to get some reaction out of the Lord, knowing that he wasn't here just to joust; he was here to seal a deal of marriage . Might as well get him overconfident, feed into his streak of taking out young and aspiring knights, and at the same time, seize the opportunity to dethrone the best jouster in Westeros. Whatever his answer, which, Robyn expected to be acceptance, he would his position across the field, place his helmet back on, and charge forward.
Ok. Here we go. If there needed to be more RP for the Heightened Stakes to be added, I will go back and do that. Or alternatively, roll for some kind of persuasion? Though, I’m not sure he would much need it, considering how beneficial it would be to just take the deal?? I was hoping to have both of them do heightened stakes, just to make this a real challenge for the both of them, and to make this really the deciding factor in if he is a real knight or not. Just to make sure, the TN modifier to stay in saddle would be +7 now, because of Noble and Heightened stakes x2, correct?

Lord Leo gets serious for a brief moment, a young son should not make such a wager on behalf of his lord father without permission, and if Lord Ulbert had given permission for that, he would surely have gone mad and Highgarden must have him placed under a regency. The initial rounds are close, Robyn sits better in the saddle, but The Longthorn's lance hits exactly where it creates the most difficulty to withstand.

Robyn, dead set on winning, shifts his seat in his saddle, and tries again, this time, going for the knockout.
That makes sense, I suppose he didn't agree to those terms. The only question I have is why he wouldn't treat this the same way he did with Ser Aerion? With High in Saddle? Unless he is ACTUALLY intimidated by Robyn? Because he wouldn't have known about the subtraction to his dice, so what changed? Did the boy's overconfidence strike a cord with him? Either way, since there isn't a second heightened stakes, so I am switching to add HiS RvLT P4-7 - N + EF + TK +T (F) A2 HiS & SiS & CyB: 3#6d6k3+12 26 29 20 3#7d6k4-2 17 13 15 3#4d6 15 12 20
Welp. Someone is falling out of their saddle here probably. I just hope it is Lord Leo first....

A shock goes through the crowd as the young and unknown knight unhorses the Longthorn on the fourth pass, unknown no longer. But a great many considers it a fluke of luck. Or maybe Lord Tyrell was getting old with the number of times he have been unhorsed as of late.
Because Aerion beat him at the helmet game (and Lord Durwell likely plays the same trick on him, with good chances of success, would have if he was featured and went up against Leo), so an opponent that can match the likes Robyn went up against going HS? Leo doesn't mind loosing, but he doesn't like it either. Leo N: 3#7d6k3+8 24 25 24 3#6d6k3+1 10 10 15 3#4d6 18 19 12That's Superior Destrier and Full Plate for the ransom. |

Robyn took off his helm, beaming with pride at the wave of shock. This was the momentum that he needed, and he let loose a powerful howl into the sky, proud of his achievement and even more of himself for doing it. He would, of course, get off his horse to help up Lord Leo, a soft chuckle coming from his lips, "Well my lord, thank you for this ride. Any opportunity to go up against the best jouster in Westeros is always an honor." he would smile, giving a sly wink and a laugh, "Good thing you didn't take my wager though, hm?" he would give him a pat on the back as soon as he was standing, before heading close to where Lady Falyse was, hoping to catch her eye. If he does, he would make eye contact, before proudly stating her house motto, giving a deep bow to her, before going off to collect his winnings
