The receptionist at the desk had no problem accepting Roge’s application, the grizzly dwarf looking over his Status with a fine tooth comb before giving them all a nod. “Status recorded. The application manager will be with you shortly.” He then waved them all off to the waiting area, Roge getting a bit grumpy at all of the waiting, but glad Sean’s vouching had fast tracked the application to the testing phase.
“I don’t have any training for defense or attack. You sure I’ll do okay?” he asked quietly, Sean giving him a wide grin and a pat on the back.
“You’ll do fine. It’s basically just making sure a stray arrow isn’t going to kill you and you can keep a goblin off your back. Both of which I’m comfortable you’ll do fine… with…” Sean trailed off, the tiger’s face hardening at something behind the dragon. Roge turned around at the look to freeze in place as he spots Guild Hall

Leaf ArmorMagicMagicSkillSkillMagic pool, letting the spell go for longer without him having to re-invoke it. At first when he tried to Accelerate the plants, he’d only been able to do one at a time, but letting it pull from his Magic pool allowed it to refill itself when it ran dry.
He glanced over the Leaf Armor, frowning at the shiny dark green color. It looked too much like his mid-green scales, making his look naked in places. Focusing down the line from his Magic pool, he tried to change the color to a matte black, surprising himself as the leaves quickly followed his mental command.
“I’ll give you extra points for that in stealth,” Kim stated, making Roge jump as he almost had forgotten where he was. He nodded at the foxkin before getting into a running stance and preparing to start. Once he took one step into the area, the arrows started flying, Roge wincing as he’d been hit by two of the right off the bat. He didn’t pay attention to that though, the armor blocking some of the hits as he flicks both hands forward and vines stuck to the wall behind the finish line. He didn’t exactly think the move through all that well, flying far ahead of the rest of the arrows but smacking front first into the wall at full speed. He hazily looked up at the sky, the voices around him a blur as he swiftly fell unconscious.

“Of course he did,” Sean mumbled, fretting behind Marge as she used her Healing Skill on Roge, his body quite still on the ground with blood dripping along his maw from a broken snout. His familiar sat nearby, apparently having the sense to jump off when the dragon had flung himself. “He has a tendency to get tunnel vision…”
“Oh don’t worry Sean, that won’t effect his test scores,” the manager stated, the foxkin mostly focused on her notes. “It actually showed his mobility and utility off quite nicely if I do say so myself. Especially his utility considering the vines aren’t an active part of his Skills and can be given to other people. We might even get requests for people to purchase some from him after this stunt and the swinging he’s been doing all week.”
Sean sighed in relief at that, watching Roge’s face slowly reconstruct itself. Knowing his close friend would be okay, he could then focus on the uninvited guests in the courtyard, the clergy watching the events and whispering to each other.
