[sblock=Terrain]Statues: The central (red) square is a wall and cannot be passed. Any square that is more than half full of the statue (not including arms) is difficult terrain.
Oil: The oil is hazardous terrain (can make a save if forced into it). Creatures that fall into it are restrained(save ends). Creatures that end their turn in it take 5 damage of the round's type. Getting out of the pool and back onto the platform takes 2 squares of movement.[/sblock]
[sblock=Rules of the Round]Central Gem: Each round the central gem will change colors, each color having a different effect. Regardless of the color, ALL creatures in the arena will have the following effects:
*Vulnerable 5 to one damage type.
*Resist 10 to all other damage types.
The damage type is determined by the color of the center gem.
Standing in the blue area will have two effects:
1) When the gem changes colors, everyone standing in the blue area will take an attack (see Round Attack below).
2) When the gem finishes changing colors, whichever side has more conscious players in the blue area will get a round benefit for their team that changes depending on the central gem's color. On a tie, neither side gets the benefit.
Statues: A player on or adjacent to one of the red spheres can control the the statue next to it and direct it to attack as a minor action. The statue's attack can target any creature within reach 5 of its center square: +12 vs AC, 2d10+3 damage and slide 3. This action may only be taken once per round per combatant.
Yellow Spheres: A player on or adjacent to a yellow sphere can control one of the pentagonal platforms and direct it to attack any creature on the map as a minor action. Attack is "Round Attack" below. This action may only be taken once per round per combatant.
Black Liquid: Any creature that falls into the liquid takes the a "Round Attack" below when they fall in and are then restrained(save ends). At the end of each turn in the oil, creatures take 5 damage of the current round's type.
Round Attack: +10 vs NAD(depending on center gem color): 1d10+3 damage (type depending on center gem color) and slide 1.
Victory: If at the end of a round, only one team is on the platform (others are unconscious, dead, or in the oil) the match ends immediately and the side on the platform wins.[/sblock]
[sblock=Appease the Crowd]*As a minor action, a PC may make a skill check to wow the crowd. If they succeed at the check, they gain +2 to their next d20 roll if they beat the DC, plus +2 per 5 by which they beat the DC. If the check is failed, the PC takes a -2 penalty to their next d20 roll, -2 more per 5 by which they miss the DC.
I.E, if the DC is 15, 1-5 would be -6, 6-10 would be -4, 11-14 would be -2, 15-19 would be +2, etc.
*All skill DCs will start at 15 and each individual skill's DC goes up by 2 per time the skill is used as the crowd gets more jaded. The DCs go up at the end of the round in which they are used. The DCs do not drop between arena rounds.
*Any skill can be used, as long as the player can provide relevant character action to back up the roll.

*Seeing the onslaught of platform blasts and eladrin blades well before hand. Kauldron takes up a defensive stance. As the platforms assault his mind Kauldron ignites with flames of madness across his heavily iron clad body. The maddening flames sealing off his mind from all further assaults his deity forbidding it. Kauldron grins and continues to smoke his cigar all while parrying and blocking incoming blows with his shield. Then suddenly from behind an eladrin teleports kauldron away from the main of the battle.*
uh, what in the nine hells was that?
*Now at the edge of the tar pit. Too close for his own comfort.*
That was a close one.
*He backed away from the edge and looked over at the main of the battle. He watched as his comrades pelted the eladrin with spell after spell. Sending them all relaying in disarray. As they got sent back in his direction Kauldron saw his chance. He darted into the lot of them all. His forearm blades slashing out with blinding speed. Blood splashing out as his blades dig deep into all but one of them.*
We gots them on the ropes now lads!

Match Two: The Black Pool, Round 2
As each new dazzling, terrifying attack is unleashed, the crowd gets more and more wild, to the point the arena is shaking, the oil splashing against its walls with the force of the crowd's near-riot.
The nearly broken Eladrin make a few feeble attacks, mostly absorbed by the gray protective fields around the party.
Then the gem in the center flares, turning black. It blasts those in the center, but when it returns the group's fields are solid black, unblemished by any weakness.
[sblock=New Combat Rules, IMPORTANT, READ]Ok, here's the big change that I'm going to implement in all my games. We're keeping the Malenkirk initiative system, but here's how I'm going to handle status effects and the like:
All PC actions are considered to be simultaneous. This means that all the monsters are exactly where the map shows them until I run the round, then all the group's attacks take place at the same time and will be in effect for the whole team for the upcoming round.
Exception A: If the player hits with an effect (say dazing TenT) the player will get the advantages of their effect for the rest of their turn. I.E. daze them, AP, get CA from the daze. For the rest of the team, the effect will only apply for the creature's following turn.
Exception B: If a monster saves against an effect at the end of its turn, the PCs will still get the benefit of the effect during their following turn. Example, a monster dazed that saves will still not draw OAs/grant CA during the player's following turn.
Hopefully, this will alleviate players not knowing what's going on and me having to take an hour every few nights to do a partial round update. The only thing you have to keep track of is where the other players moved to and the effects I have written in the Combatants block imposed from the last round.[/sblock]

Effect Key: location, hp/max hp, damage related, TenT or TsnT, conditional, save ends, encounter[/sblock]
[sblock=Terrain]Statues: The central (red) square is a wall and cannot be passed. Any square that is more than half full of the statue (not including arms) is difficult terrain.
Oil: The oil is hazardous terrain (can make a save if forced into it). Creatures that fall into it are restrained(save ends). Creatures that end their turn in it take 5 damage of the round's type. Getting out of the pool and back onto the platform takes 2 squares of movement.[/sblock]
[sblock=Rules of the Round]Central Gem: Each round the central gem will change colors, each color having a different effect. Regardless of the color, ALL creatures in the arena will have the following effects:
*Vulnerable 5 to one damage type.
*Resist 10 to all other damage types.
The damage type is determined by the color of the center gem.
Standing in the blue area will have two effects:
1) When the gem changes colors, everyone standing in the blue area will take an attack (see Round Attack below).
2) When the gem finishes changing colors, whichever side has more conscious players in the blue area will get a round benefit for their team that changes depending on the central gem's color. On a tie, neither side gets the benefit.
Statues: A player on or adjacent to one of the red spheres can control the the statue next to it and direct it to attack as a minor action. The statue's attack can target any creature within reach 5 of its center square: +12 vs AC, 2d10+3 damage and slide 3. This action may only be taken once per round per combatant.
Yellow Spheres: A player on or adjacent to a yellow sphere can control one of the pentagonal platforms and direct it to attack any creature on the map as a minor action. Attack is "Round Attack" below. This action may only be taken once per round per combatant.
Black Liquid: Any creature that falls into the liquid takes the a "Round Attack" below when they fall in and are then restrained(save ends). At the end of each turn in the oil, creatures take 5 damage of the current round's type.
Round Attack: +10 vs NAD(depending on center gem color): 1d10+3 damage (type depending on center gem color) and slide 1.
Victory: If at the end of a round, only one team is on the platform (others are unconscious, dead, or in the oil) the match ends immediately and the side on the platform wins.[/sblock]
[sblock=Appease the Crowd]*As a minor action, a PC may make a skill check to wow the crowd. If they succeed at the check, they gain +2 to their next d20 roll if they beat the DC, plus +2 per 5 by which they beat the DC. If the check is failed, the PC takes a -2 penalty to their next d20 roll, -2 more per 5 by which they miss the DC.
I.E, if the DC is 15, 1-5 would be -6, 6-10 would be -4, 11-14 would be -2, 15-19 would be +2, etc.
*All skill DCs will start at 15 and each individual skill's DC goes up by 2 per time the skill is used as the crowd gets more jaded. The DCs go up at the end of the round in which they are used. The DCs do not drop between arena rounds.
*Any skill can be used, as long as the player can provide relevant character action to back up the roll.
Current Skill DCs:
Acrobatics: 19
History: 21
Insight: 19
Religion: 19
Streetwise: 19
Others: 17[/sblock]
As each new dazzling, terrifying attack is unleashed, the crowd gets more and more wild, to the point the arena is shaking, the oil splashing against its walls with the force of the crowd's near-riot.
The nearly broken Eladrin make a few feeble attacks, mostly absorbed by the gray protective fields around the party.
Then the gem in the center flares, turning black. It blasts those in the center, but when it returns the group's fields are solid black, unblemished by any weakness.
[sblock=New Combat Rules, IMPORTANT, READ]Ok, here's the big change that I'm going to implement in all my games. We're keeping the Malenkirk initiative system, but here's how I'm going to handle status effects and the like:
All PC actions are considered to be simultaneous. This means that all the monsters are exactly where the map shows them until I run the round, then all the group's attacks take place at the same time and will be in effect for the whole team for the upcoming round.
Exception A: If the player hits with an effect (say dazing TenT) the player will get the advantages of their effect for the rest of their turn. I.E. daze them, AP, get CA from the daze. For the rest of the team, the effect will only apply for the creature's following turn.
Exception B: If a monster saves against an effect at the end of its turn, the PCs will still get the benefit of the effect during their following turn. Example, a monster dazed that saves will still not draw OAs/grant CA during the player's following turn.
Hopefully, this will alleviate players not knowing what's going on and me having to take an hour every few nights to do a partial round update. The only thing you have to keep track of is where the other players moved to and the effects I have written in the Combatants block imposed from the last round.[/sblock]

Not surprised by the teleporting eladrin, Artemis places his hand on the red orb next to him. The statue takes a mighty swing but Artemis misguesses the speed of the swing and misses the elf. He starts to curse his luck when the arrow shot from behind him gets his attention.
"Whoa there big guy!" Artemis levels his trusty heavy rod at the archer, but the eladrin is too quick to hit with his eldritch blast.

Ootah moves towards the centre and continues firing on the same spellweaver, but he's too quick now that he's realized Ootah took him as prey.

Move: To O10. since he moved more than 4 squares Ootah gets Skirmish Stance bonuses again (+2 to AC and Reflex)
Standard: Clever shot on spellweaver 2, fails to hit even when the bonus should have been +12 not +13. Sorry guys, perhaps I'll be able to contribute in the third combat.
