I will be running gladiator arena matches this Saturday and Sunday. The games will be at 12 noon Pacific, 3 pm Eastern. Both times, I will keep the server open for 2-3 hours max. Anyone is free to play, just be sure to give me a copy of your gladiator's character sheet when you arrive, or send it via e-mail to
mist_phantom@yahoo.com
If sent by e-mail, make sure the character sheet is just part of the message body, using the Official T13K character sheet format, as I WILL NOT OPEN ATTACHMENTS under any circumstances.
Post to this thread in advance if you expect to show up, so I can have a rough idea of how many gladiators to prepare for. If it matters, I use the 3.0 rules, though characters can be made with 3.5 rules if desired, just know that I will be using the 3.0 rules on combat and such (I am NOT wasting $90-120 for new books that I hardly need).
Note that gladiator characters are in addition to your normal allotment of 2 T13K characters, so anyone can play, even if you don't play in regular campaigns in T13K. Be sure to use the T13K Setting Guide PDF for creating your character, but note that ANY PC race from the guide is available to gladiator characters! Newly-made gladiator characters start at an Effective Character Level of 3, which means that characters with no ECL modifier (such as humans) start with 3 class levels, while characters with an ECL mod of +1 start with 2 class levels, and those with a +2 ECL mod start with 1 class level, etc. Gladiator characters begin with the equipment and coinage equal to the amount of gold listed in the DMG for a character of their level (not their ECL), thus 2,700 gold for 3rd-level characters, or 900 gold for 2nd-level characters. Gladiators of 1st-level have the average amount of gold for their class, as per the PHB. Don't worry about an elaborate background for your gladiator, just a short blurb regarding their personality and how they came to be a gladiator in the Doluhre Arena of Ulruz is sufficient. Most gladiators are slaves, though a few freemen and others do compete, rarely.
