You 're just a practice dummy.

A quintain! A "practice dummy" for knights to practice their jousting.

From m-w.com: Definition of quintain
: an object to be tilted at
especially : a post with a revolving crosspiece that has a target at one end and a sandbag at the other end

I like the word, especially because, y'know, it starts with a Q. 😁
