TOURNAMENT ROUND ONE!

[Scorch]

Welcome to the first round of the Nerischian tournament! This is the debate round. Every Nerinian has been paired against an Ischian - so have fun!
Word limit: 1000
How it's judged: Grammar, evidence provided, convincingness, structure; the judgement is SUBJECTIVELY judged by Sid, Tiny, and Devin. Though there's not really a rubric, we'll try to give as much feedback as we can in the moment.
Posts: Either of you can post first, they will be judged in comparison to one another but not consecutively the way a battle post would be. What this means is that the two posts are only connected by the topic, not by each other's actual responses - it's like you're both presenting prewritten papers, not a debate back and forth.
Your posts are due: May 15th.

CLARIFICATION:
The anticipated format for debate posts are a first person paper written from the perspective of your character, with no preamble. What this means is that there is no “Scorch cleared her throat before continuing/shuffles her hooves” - it would just be “debate debate debate debate essay essay essay” and then be finished. The 1000 word limit is for your characters opinion entirely. Your characters are allowed to “know” historical facts that they normally wouldn’t to use as evidence for their debates.
