Maybe it's best if we put on a good show. That's what's important, right? Plus, I heard some people put a big bet on you. A big one."[sblock=ooc]Daran will receive combat advantage for his first two attacks, and Janus is likely to yield upon becoming bloodied.[/sblock]Ja'CartAjax smiles."I'm not sure whether you've got anything to worry about. You've got a bye for this round. Anyway, it's just one event. You get to sit with Nikolieva and Thrast and watch quietly. After, it'll be the winners of tomorrow's events versus the three of you. That should be interesting."---In the morning, the order of the combats is settled.Daran will face Champion Janus.Jalaan will face Templar YorickMuzdum will face Templar Falstaff.[sblock=ooc note]I'll run all three encounters at the same time, so as to preserve our patience. Since these are 1v1 battles, we don't need a map. Just assume you start 6 squares away from each other.[/sblock]---Daran is led onto the field across from Janus. Both of them gleam like paragons of dirty fighting. Only Daran and Janus, however, know that this is going to be an extremely short battle.The wind picks up, and the battle begins! Daran seizes the opportunity, and can act much more quickly than the one-time champion.---As Yorick and Jalaan square off in the arena, the crowd cheers for both in equal measure. Jalaan's finesse perfectly foils the brutish strength of the templar! Something distracts Jalaan - could it be?! The red-haired man from his last raid. That man is in the stands, sitting behind Ja'Cart.[sblock=In Jalaan's head]Hello, Jalaan. I hope my commentary doesn't distract you too much.[/sblock]It does distract Jalaan, at least momentarily, and Yorick draws his heavy bow and prepares to attack. His arrow flies speedily across the short distance, and easily punctures Jalaan's robe. The blow is painful, and Jalaan winces as he snaps the arrow out of the wound.[sblock=Yorick's Actions]Standard: RBA vs JalaanHit for 19 damage.[/sblock]---Falstaff gazes across the arena at the dwarf. The templar's heavy axe crackles with purple psionic energy."You won't trample over me quite so easily, dwarf."Falstaff charges across the battlefield at Muzdum, and his axeblow, charged with a heavy does of psionic power, cleaves into Muzdum's midsection, leaving a dripping, crackling wound.[sblock=Falstaff's Actions]Move adjacent to Muzdum.Standard: MBA against Muzdum.  Crits for 18 damage.[/sblock][sblock=Battle Info][sblock=Initiatives]DaranJanus--YorickJalaan--FalstaffMuzdum[/sblock][sblock=HP & Defenses]Daran 51/51Jalaan 24/43Muzdum 32/50Janus 85/85AC 18 Fort 18 Ref 17 Will 16Yorick 51/51AC 19 Fort 17 Ref  19 Will 15Falstaff 72/72AC 22 Fort 17 Ref 16 Will 20[/sblock][/sblock]</blockquote>
