When the group heads straight for the central gem, on of them shouts something in elven and the eladrin split up all over the place.[sblock=Elven]They're taking the center, get to the orbs and be ready![/sblock]A moment later, the gem flares purple, a gray shield of energy thrumming into place around all the combatants with a slight purple miasma swirling around it.  The blue liquid in the center flares up around the group. Though most of the group gets burned by the necrotic energy, when it clears most of the group are still in the circle.A moment later the gray shield fizzles and breaks around the Eladrin, to a chorus of elven curses and cheers from the crowd.[GM]Ootah, Gil, and Kauldron are up before the enemy.The walkway will stay, though anything on it or the area where Ootah and the Arcane Archer are at doesn't count as being on the platform for purposes of the victory condition.[/GM][sblock=Center Gem]Color: PurpleType: NecroticRound Attack: +10 vs Will, 1d10+3 necrotic damage and slide 1.Capture Bonus: Enemy team loses the resist 10 all.Capturing Team: Players.[/sblock][sblock=Enemy Actions]Shadewalker 1: Double move to G16.Shadewalker 2: Move to N15.

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 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: 19Insight: 19Religion: 19Streetwise: 19Others: 17[/sblock]</blockquote>
