[QUOTE="Saint_Ridley, post: 6993936, member: 6871896"] Bodyguard slave would work very easily. I think you could still make pit fighter a solid background - think of gladiatorial fights as similar to pro wrestling. Sometimes you want a bit of a change up to the standard formula. That's where team fights are in - suddenly you have to watch out for and work with a partner against two opponents. Guardian suggests to me Protection as a fighting style, and the pit fighter who participated in tag team fights sounds like a good way to justify that. Either set up gives you an NPC (partner/employer). In the case of the bodyguard, perhaps you were sold, or your employer died and you had to go underground to avoid being the primary suspect (justified or not), or maybe your employer still employs you but in different capacities because you're trusted enough to carry them out and this is part of a long-term job. As a pit fighter, you have a partner. Perhaps you and your partner tried to escape and your partner died, or you both won a tournament that would grant you freedom (or won a tournament that meant you two had to fight to the death for only one of you to be free), or other options.
