That is the best way any character I can have can ever ask to go out. In exploding fury and style.

[GreatWyrmGold]

"YOU FOOL. RIK IS NOT RIK." Rik took off it's costume, revealing it in fact to be a bunch of woodland creatures. The creatures hit the desert floor running, dispersing into the arena as the troll disguise melted away into a cloud of fog. The fog parted, revealing a cross-dressing Latino man laying upon a grand piano in a sexy pose. The pianist immediately began playing the classical hit, 'Nice Sprites and Scary Monsters' by Skrillex in B Major'. The cross-dresser picks up the microphone and accompanies the music with improvised free-based poetry. As the sound of song fills the arena, the clouds overhead part from the sky. Tupac Shakur looks down upon Derick, smiling. "Yes son. You have avenged your father." Shakur morphs into a rocket ship and flies away, exploring the final frontier of the infinite universe.

Again:

[W]hat the heck was up with Rik's death??

[Xanmyral]

If you get an eight or above, reality breaks down around your feet. I got a nine. You rolled a one. It was like the perfect storm.

[Persus13]

"Hey, who helped you slay the giant worm!" Stab this lady where it hurts with mah chainsaw.

[Maxinum McDreich]

That has to be the bloodiest turn ever in all the arenas, even before this version XD. That was a good read!

[EDIT: Nevermind, literally the turn before this ALSO had 3 deaths. I guess it was just the awesome way two guys died at once. It was the perfect combo: the guy who kills on death and the guy/robot that takes a fair bit more damage if it actually gets hurt. Awesome. Also WOW those dice rolls against that inpronouncable creature. Shortest life of an NPC of death yet!]

"Good grief, that thing with the claws MUST go!"

Fire at Sister.

Very True.

Name: Robo-Doe
Gender: Male?
Age: Infinity and counting
Race: Beep Boop.
Starting Weapon: Lazor Pistol
Abilities: Helmetizationizor, Solar Vision
Appearance: A completely Robotic copy of Jane Doe, AKA, the Soldier. It even get's the slightly Vision-Impairing Helmet and the All-American personality right.
Brief Biography: Grey Mann still needs that fucking money. He's sending out an improvised Solider Bot to get the job done right this time.
Hit Points: 20/20

[Xanmyral]

I'm tempted to bring Derick for another go around, but I feel his time as reality-breaker: The wizard has passed. Time to brainstorm up a new crazy ass idea to go off of. Hm... Hah, I think I got one.

Spoiler: Gamble (Red Harmful, Green Helpful, Blue Fluff) (click to show/hide)

Name: Gamble
Gender: "Flip a coin and get back to me."
Age: "Roll the die and maybe I'll tell you."
Race: "Pick a card and I'll show you it."

Abilities: Rage at Fate, Life's a Gamble, Stacked the Deck, Poker Face, Tipped the Scales
Appearance: "Looks are such a mutable thing, maybe take a spin at the wheel and why don't you tell me?"
Brief Biography: "Who knows why I do it, who cares what happens because of it, why don't you weave me a tale about why I do the things I do?"
Hit Points: 1/1

That turned out a bit... Weirder than I thought.

EDIT: Tried to make all of it more understandable. Think I succeeded.

Okay, after reading that for a few minutes, I think I get what this character does exactly. Though in the Rage at Fate ability, what do you mean by "grants additional attacks"?

[Xanmyral]

I wasn't sure if the staff of rage used up the effected's attack or not in its ability to make them attack someone else, so I figured I'd just put a clause in their trying to say "the attack forced by the staff of rage does not consume their regular attack."

All of it could be worded better honestly, I wrote it while half asleep.

[GreatWyrmGold]

I'm going to go back to my original strategy. That was the game I did best in.

Spoiler: Hunter of Men (click to show/hide)

Gender: Male, typically
Age: Uncertain
Race: Demonic
Starting Weapon: Hunting Rifle
Abilities: Claws, Demonic Fire, Wings, Cursed, Dark Soul, Silver Vulnerability, Tail
Appearance: Usually, The Hunter of Men looks like a normal human in whatever the local garb is. When hunting, however, he sprouts a pair of pterosaurine wings, a red, whiplike tail, and claws, and replaces whatever clothing he had with a simple leather robe.
Bio: The Hunter of Men is a hitdemon, slaying mortals who angered higher demons or reneged on their deals. Currently, he is on a holiday of sorts; annoyingly, humans don't seem to appreciate Hunter doing his favorite passtime to other humans. Hence, he has found a perfectly legal way to kill people. What fun! Best part, if he wins he can probably retire...not that he's likely to.
HP: 20/20

I'm a bit worried about balance, since while its perks are underwhelming its disadvantages are minor as well. If it's not, you can drop Demonic Fire and/or Claws. Neither of those seems like they would be used much, anyways.

[Xanmyral]

Realized I worded a lot of things weirdly while writing that. On Life's a Gamble, it should instead say "while no damage may be taken from an attack, a weapons special may come about as long as it does nothing to affect the user's health." That way he won't be insta-killed by poison or bleed unless it was a true-blue six that does him in.

Game III - Round 6: Last of Them

Paul Bunyan looks as the sandworm dies off in the distance. He turns to compliment Sister, only to find her flying at him, claws drawn. He steps to the side as she zooms by, nearly tearing his face off. "I helped you slay the worm, and this is the thanks I get?" Sister spins around, "Only one is allowed to come out alive. And I like the other guy more." Paul huffs, before taking his chainsaw, and stabbing it at her like a knife. (3 vs. 2+1) The blades rip by her, but she teleports next to his head just before the attack can land. The chainsaw embeds itself into the ground. "Too slow." (1 vs. 6-1) She aims for the back of his head, but he spins around, taking one hand off of the chainsaw and smacks her with it. He barely grazes her, but it's with enough force to send her spinning back.

Sister regained her momentum, flying at Paul Bunyan again. "I'll slay you, giant man!" (4 vs. 3-1) Bunyan swings his saw at her, but she swiftly dodges it. Taking advantage of opportunity, she counter-attacks by digging both her claws into his right hand. Paul hollows in pain as she pulls her sharp talons out, his hand torn apart and bleeding.  He reels back, and as he remains vulnerable the shadow demon flies at his feet and claws her way through his left boot. The colossal being, falls backwards, smashing his head against the sold laser-forcefield surrounding the arena in a large dome. (4x2= -8 HP) He sits there, stunned and battered. Sister cackles, "Have you had enough yet?"

Doctor Who watches the events unfold, and shakes his head. "That demonic creature has nearly incapacitated that giant! It must be dealt with!" He takes aim at Sister with his scoped gun, not even knowing if conventional bullets would do damage. But hey, it was worth a shot. (6+2 vs. 1+1) Sister turned around, and got a face full of lead. It tore through her body, shredding her apart like wolves shredding apart a wheel of cheese because wolves really like cheese. (10x2 = -20!) She erupts into a burst of black smoke and dark miasma, dissipating into the air.
Doctor Who has slain Sister!
He gains 10 Points!
Her Double Amulet falls to the ground.

Fire on the big man!

I'm sorry, but can you either simply him, by a lot, or make another character? Calculating all the factors and what-not makes my brainz hurt.
