Hard to work with no one here....
Well... Boredom at work the past two days :-( and no one an the boards... so I had to put up somethin'
and it was that or this: If we had an elimination competition, who would you pit your character against first and which two do you think would make it to the final round?

This would be just for the heck of it and without any emotional attachments.
It depends on where the battle is. Xath doesn't really stand a chance against anyone inside a building. But outside, I'd probably take Arfin first as he doesn't have a real ranged weapon. Alter Self and fly into the air, then lightning bolt him from afar. Cheap? Yes. Effective? Yes.
As for who makes it to the final round. It depends, Is there time to rest between battles? Because otherwise, the spellcasters are at a severe disadvantage. Would Xath make it to the final round? Most likely not. Not without a severe stroke of luck.

I just wanna leave...
For purely battle tactics:
L'aurel loose really fast in tight spaces.
L'aurel loose not so fast wooded area.
hehehe.... her against Farathier. Hey the most comabat similar, and she actually has a slight advantage there at least.
If Xath had a high enough strength: She puts her hand out pressing it to his forhead. Thus stopping his charge, but with her long arms he can not reach her. So he is left waving the weapon until he thrown it
Okay, well it looks funny in my head!!!
As for the last round, I see Kareth and Arhconus lost to in a blur of hand to hand combat. Arhconus with swords, Kareth with just his mighty fists.

I think in order to make a "Tournament of Champions" fair, the first round would have to be a random draw. You'd also want to include a few extra people from the NPC pool, to round out the capabilities of the fighters in the tourney--as it stands, you'd all look essentially the same, being all fighters (except Gertie).Laurel said:
Medieval tournaments (the joust and all of that) are probably a little out of place in the setting, but duels for fun, skill, and entertainment could be a reasonable diversion. Everybody does subdual damage, and you can set it up like Mortal Kombat--best 2 out of 3.
As for my bet? Arfin. He's got the best armor, and a lot of hit points.
Second place would go to Archon, because of the Damage Reduction, and the Spellfire.
Third? Probably Justice. She also has a large number of hit points, and she can get in close without having to worry about attacks of opportunity.
But, all of the characters would have a pretty close fight. For instance, if it's a contest of abilities, and not just fighting, Xath could really take advantage of most of the PCs relatively low will saves.
Neat idea. When you're not trapped in Oceanus, I suggest going ahead and doing it.

Just about ready to begin the trek back to DC. Look forward to seeing all of you.
Mik, if you check this, give us a call when you get a chance.
