The Enemy Within: Shadows Over Bögenhafen

"Ah-ha! Do we have a contestant?" the showman says as Kildrak approaches him. "We have rules, sir, but they are few." He gives a theatrical wink. "No weapons but what the gods have given you. No magic. No punching below the belt, no biting, no gouging. Victory is determined by a pin, a submission or a knockout. Interested? Spend 5 shillings, win 5 Crowns. I'm sure a doughty dwarf such as yourself knows a good investment when he sees one!"

The wrestler is a burly human - plenty of muscle but perhaps little speed and finesse. He is stood in one corner of the ring looking tired, but Gorim can tell that this is feigned.

"A challenger has appeared!" cries the show barker. "Step up, son, and show the ladies and gentlemen what you are made of! You may like to leave any weapons with your friends there, make yourself comfortable."
He turns to the crowd and raises his voice.
"Ladies and Gentlemen! Roll up one and all! See the mighty Crusher Braugen, unbeaten champion of the Schaffenfest, as he attempts to defend his title against the wiliest warrior of the elven lands..." he leans over to Aaryn and asks, sotto voce, "...what did you say your name was, lad?"

"That was unexpected," Garold mutters.
He steps closely to the elf, whispering, "Take in the surroundings, use them to your advantage. A post can support you for extra power on a punch. Trip him up in the ropes."
[sblock=ooc] Garold has improved resourcful presence: if you use an action point to make an attack, if you hit it does 5 more damage, if you miss you gain 5 THP [/sblock]

"Names are unimportant," the elf mutters. "Your introduction was fine." He then sheds his robe and cloak to reveal his bare chest. He is of young build and attractive, but hardly toned or muscled, a clear contrast to the burly strong man. Yet the elf shows steely resolve before the man.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Shaffenfest Slamfest!" calls the barker. "In the red corner, the defending champion! That Mighty Man-Mountain of Multitudinous Muscle, Crusherrrrr Braugennnnnn!"
The champion steps forward with a confident swagger, giving a bit of a gun show to the audience and flexing his slab-like pectorals.
"In the blue corner, our brave challenger. He's lean and keen, he's an exotic enigma from the elven lands, Ladies and Gentlemen, the Elf With No Naaaaame!"
A ripple of applause for Aaryn.
The showman hops out of the ring and lifts up an outsized hourglass.
"Gentlemen," he says loudly. Ostentatiously he turns over the hourglass and slams it down onto his table. "Begin!"
Crusher goes into a fighting stance and approaches Aaryn carfeully. The two circle each other in the ring, sizing each other up.
"Two Crowns says the champion KOs your friend," says a townsman next Hans.
[sblock=OOC]
Aaryn wins initiative - he can either take the fight to Crusher or wait to see what the champ does before reacting. This is run as a typical combat, although damage is nonlethal. I may even put up a map.
