Unfortunately, Skye had been slightly scathed from a scratch from the creature - and perhaps he had endured such a loss in health simply because he was a bit too laid-back when fighting against Primg.
[Skye:] 10,382/10,544 HP
The young swordsman was brought back to his senses by a remarkably sarcastic comment from the female adjacent to him. “Thank you for that
brilliant deduction, Mr. Holmes." She paused for a moment, as if to wonder why Skye would even say such a thing, but continued nonetheless. "Any more words of wisdom to impart?" Her cyan eyes seemed to tell Skye that she assumed he was dense - and that such comments would only make things worse.
Skye grinned slightly. That woman was very interesting; he had never received such comments from a female in his entire life.
"In fact, I do. Losing your rationality during a battle is the worst possible thing one could do - it not only clouds your judgement, but it renders you unable to think sensibly as well. Attempting to do that against a boss - or even a sub-boss would be like depriving yourself of oxygen." The charming swordsman smiled before removing a health potion from his inventory.
"If your logic requires you to send yourself into an emotional fury only to lose your rationality, I would much rather be Sherlock Holmes than a fool who would lead himself to his own demise."He took a sip from the red potion, and it subsequently dissipated into a myriad of crystal shards.
"Now then. Let's take things seriously, shall we?" Grasping his sword tightly with his right hand as it seemed to sharpen itself even further within its aura of blue, he prepared to take on the creature once more.

OOC: This post was pretty short. :P Also, could you elaborate on what we should do with Titanpad?
Lillium, my character is classified under the 'Paper Ram'. Trading his health for immense damage and speed, he focuses on landing blindingly quick slashes that deal a whole lot of damage in swift movements - though he can't take many hits. This means that without his superior agility and power put into play, he wouldn't be himself. If my character got hit badly during a sub-boss fight, he would literally be considered useless(as his speed would not exceed the sub-boss's and he takes a lot of damage). As quoted from TV Tropes:
TV Tropes said
Being fast is cool, but hardly sufficient in many settings to make a difference. Being able to make a lot of damage is great but not so much if you are a sitting duck while doing so. Enter the Paper Ram, who trades his health for damage and speed.
But of course, that is not to say that he won't be hit in actual boss fights - I definitely plan on having him taking a lot of damage.
