Turn 2
Jonny puts himself forward for the arena. Once he's done that, he checks around for information if he can.
You try and look for more information
| and you find someone willing to tell you something. It's not information though.
"Well, I suppose I could teach you some things, so you can get a little prepared for the upcoming matches. Just tell me something you want to learn, and I can probably teach you, if it's not forbidden by the rules. Name's
Drake Cully, by the way," Drake is incredibly human looking, except for his pitch black eyes.
| You notice something about the people around you, but you instantly forget it.
"Uh..." Krokus stared at the way ahead for a moment, not quite comprehending.
'I thought this was an arena? Fighting things and such?' Eventually he shook his head and, gripping his machete, headed down the right path. He had expected this dream to get to the violent bit a little sooner, but oh well.
>Take the Right path!
| You go down the right path, following several twists and turns, but soon a clearing has come upon you. You sprint towards it, thinking you have reached the finish. You run through and... you are back precisely where you started. Grumbling, you start along the right path again.
| You come to a clearing, and in the middle is a single sleeping tiger. Behind the tiger, there are three paths, one to the left, right, and straight ahead. You don't think you've made much progress to the middle....
Congratulate Deltorran on his win, and ask him if he can show me a few tricks, or give me some pointers, on how to get stronger. I'm pretty envious!
Mmkay. I hate waiting. Brr.
But, I guess that the reward is worth it, in the end...
Uh...Does that mean...More mini-turns?
I'd love to have my character train a bit, for the upcoming fights. Use ten of the slingshot bullets as aiming practice?
You congratulate
Deltorran, and ask for tips, but he brushes you off, saying, "Like I said, come back after you've won 2 matches."
Seeing as how you aren't getting any tips anytime soon, you go and practice your ranged skills.
| You hit the targets fairly well, and your proficiency improves.
Gained +1 to Ranged Weapons
Sorry, I was just still trying to figure out what items to get. Does that "one other" item include weapons?
If so, I think a slingshot, machete, and metal plate will be my starting set.
Then... find random participant to talk to. Inform them I am very squishy but don't want to die, what do?
| You find several people, but most of them simply tell you to not be stupid. However this one guy offers to teach you some Close Quarters Combat techniques for your machete. His name is Jag'Ell.

Name: Krokus del Gatoro
Age: 57
Sex: Male
Physical Description: A tall, broad-shouldered old man clad gator and crocodile hides, weatherbeaten and looking as though he'd spent the last fifteen years living in the bush, beating down large carnivorous reptiles with a machete. Which, infact, he has. He has long, ash-grey hair, a fierce hawk nose and scars criss-crossing most of his body. Has a big crease in the middle of his forhead, which stands out amongst all his other wrinkles.
Personality: Pretty goddamn crazy. Quiet most of the time, the traumatic events which drove him into hiding in the wilderness all those years ago also drove him quite mad. He has a good heart still, deep down, but his sense of morals in rather skewed.
His name is simply what the (rather frightened) locals started calling him when they saw him. His real name is, or was, Allen Keyes.
He's not quite as knowledgable as he once was. Living alone for so long has dulled his thinking a little.
