I do historical rapier fencing, and it is quite tough on the arms and legs! The classic rapier is around a kilo in weight, and maintaining precision while holding it out in front of you and thrusting is surprisingly taxing on the muscles. The concept of rapier being a light weapon is somewhat misleading - it only weights a little bit less (a few hundred grams at most) than an European longsword, and in my experience handling the rapier is actually tougher. In my first class I felt like my limbs were about to fall off because I had absolutely no stamina haha. :D
I've been trying to do some research on rapiers and fencing, mainly because Vasco (as a well trained nobleman of his time) is actually supposed to be a reasonably skilled swordsman and rapiers are the period accurate choice. They look very airy and light but it's still a significant piece of metal, and to my understanding the blade is comparatively long as well, for that maximum reach I suppose? It's always a little intimidating when I give a character a skill or a trait that is outside my area of expertise, because eventually someone who actually knows a lot about the subject will show up and I get scared of embarrassing myself with my limited understanding ´v`'
Modern Machete has the benefit of proper healthcare and better stress management so he's nowhere near as actively feeble as his chronically fatiqued 16th century counterpart. He's still twiggy and unsporty but if he really truly wanted to do fencing, I think it would be possible for him to gain the necessary physical endurance and fitness through persistent training.

The kelp's holdfast, its crucial attachment to the rocks, is incredibly tough. Each sea urchin has five teeth, which are self-sharpening and are replaced every few months. With them the urchins fell vast areas of kelp, creating clearings known as "urchin barrens". BBC | Planet Earth

ECHINOIDEA - Biophilic Pavilion, Milan by GG-loop @gg_loop. Read more: Link in bio! Photography: Alice Turazza Concept: The quest for harmonious coexistence with our planet is manifested through the profound connection and mutual exchange with Gaia, our mother earth, of which we are a fundamental part. Minimising the impact of our actions, of our buildings is not enough; sustainability is a necessary approach whose standards are now almost obsolete. To “reverse the curve”, we must necessarily aim for a positive ecological impact through our built environment… #italy #milan #installation #архитектура www.amazingarchitecture.com ✔ A collection of the best contemporary architecture to inspire you. #design #architecture #amazingarchitecture #architect #arquitectura #luxury #realestate #life #cute #architettura #interiordesign #photooftheday #love #travel #construction #furniture #instagood #fashion #beautiful #archilovers #home #house ‎#amazing #picoftheday #architecturephotography ‎#معماری (at Milan, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgDQ4VNLgmS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

( ^▽-)∠※☆( ^▽-)∠※☆( ^▽-)∠※☆
Personal Info
Personality:
They like to play tricks on people and love to tell really bad jokes to their friends. They are known to be very hyper and a bit of a risk-taker, having a tendency to find any new fun stuff to do. Though some people keep their distance from them. Half of the time, they are sorta scared of them, the other half is because of how many spikey items they wear

Sitting still

Playing Games
( ^▽-)∠※☆( ^▽-)∠※☆( ^▽-)∠※☆

Game (Good):
They will ask Sissy if they can play a game of Tag. The first half is to try to tag Sea Urchin. The second half of trying to run away from Sea urchin. Both include a timer. If won, Sea Urchin will appear out of breath but mention that they had a lot of fun.
Game (Bad):
They are nowhere to be found, presumably had run away from the town since they didn’t want to fight like the others
Reason for coming to Food Town:
Instead of wishing for a normal life, they want their life to be more exciting and less mundane
District:
Seafood District

Precioso esqueleto.
Esto es un dólar de arena. Los que buscaban “tesoros” por las playas, apreciaban su parecido con una moneda. En realidad, es un tipo de erizo de mar, de la clase Echinoidea. He buceado en la información porque ¿Un erizo de mar? ¿No son redondos y con púas? Pues resulta que , como en todo en la vida, hay diferentes tipos de erizos. Los “regulares” son la imagen que yo evoco y los “irregulares”…

Taken the same day as the previous post, this is a common heart urchin (Echinocardium cordatum), or hjärtsjöborre, but I like it's other common name, sea potato! In Sweden, they occur on the west coast at 4-200 m depths wherever soft sandy substrate is available as they make burrows up to 20cm deep in the substrate. These burrows are lined with mucus and contain a respiratory channel leading to the surface, with two sanitary channels behind itself. The burrows are recognised by the conical depression on the surface that collects detritus, which it feeds on using frontal tube feet on the ambulacrum. As for spawning, they do so in spring. #animal #animals #djur #wildlife #natur #naturliv #nature #invertebrate #invertebrates #fauna #seaurchin #seaurchins #urchin #urchins #sjöborrar #sjöborre #echinoid #echinoderm #echinoderms #animalia #echinodermata #echinoidea #spatangoida #loveniidae #echinocardium #echinocardiumcordatum #seapotato #hjärtsjöborre (at Klubbans biologiska station) https://www.instagram.com/p/CecFMf5K5Ho/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
