[QUOTE="Larry Fitz, post: 993444, member: 3949"] Joe, If they don't have SoS, thrash them severely about the head and neck, wait, that's probably a bad idea... instead berate them in a fashion designed to add to their insecurities (but be polite about it). I'm posting the description from the book itself, though I suspect the author of that section (known as Donatello on these boards) may add some insights later. [i] "Arena District Dominating the view of Parma Vecchio from any angle is the massive, fifty thousand capacity stadium, The Center for Martial Excellence, or simply known as The Arena. The cheer from the crowd can be heard from all throughout the district, and one can almost smell the blood and sweat from the combatants. The entire district reeks of conflict, with boarding houses for gladiatorial stables, headquarters for mercenary companies, armorers, weaponsmiths, and even the Parma Nationale barracks surrounding the Arena. Commerce in the district is based entirely on combat. Aside from weapons and armor, it is nearly impossible to find any products actually for sale anywhere near the Arena. Even places like taverns, inns and boarding houses are a rarity, especially when compared to some of the other areas of town. It is clear that Bellinger, goddess of war, dominates this corner of a city typically associated with Brashtamere, Artifice and Argon. Nonetheless, the Arena district is an integral part of Parma. Combine the presence of thousands of Bellingerian marines on Lagorio Naval base with the Brashtamerean aspect of entertainment, and the Games in the Arena are a natural answer." [/i] It should be noted that Bellinger is the goddess of War, Brashtamere the god of Joy and Merriment, Artifice the god of Thieves and Merchants, and Argon is the god of Innovation. They can be replaced with gods of similar profiles in whatever campaign you are playing (though if you're looking for a pantheon the 12 gods of the Twin Crowns setting work really well...) If you can't find a copy (it's selling really well, thankfully :) ) go to our website [URL=http://www.livingimagination.com]here.[/URL] You can order it from us. Hope this helps, [/QUOTE]
