[QUOTE="tglassy, post: 7061046, member: 6855204"] Ok! We have four people, enough to do round one! I will be putting that together real quick. We are going to start very simple, with a blank arena, nothing but what you bring in with you. Here is the story. The Games are All. The land, which is simply called "This Land", has grown bored and restless. It has been five hundred years since their last war, and the people are beginning to wonder why they need an Emperor in the first place. He has consolidated so much power, the people can barely use the restroom without the say so of his Officers. In order to prevent an uprising, the Emperor has instated a new form of Entertainment: The Games. in The Games, men and women, of all races and ages, are allowed to participate. Slaves may be forced, but any free person can choose to become a Gladiator. The fights are to the death, and any who survive is rewarded greatly. Power. Privilege. These things are offered to any who win, free or slave. The Games are set into tiers, with the lowest tiers in the more remote villages. A Gladiator must work their way up to the honor of fighting in the Imperial City, which is level 10 and beyond. Currently, in the small town of Small Town, their first gladiatorial games are being played. It is such a small town, as its name implies, that it only has four people willing to fight. The winner will be sent on to a larger city, closer to the Imperial City, where they will face greater challenges. Look for your threads tonight. You may RP your entrance into the stadium, and then roll initiative. You may not fight until the Game Master rings the Gong. Once that happens, he with the highest initiative goes first, and the games begin, each having their own turn. No one may leave until the other is dead. You may then RP your victory to your heart's content, until the next round begins. I fully expect these first fights to be quick, but we'll see. [/QUOTE]
