I only ate a few vampire hearts. Like, three tops. I'm sure it'll be fine.

Go check out Shadow of the Void!

I believe I'll add Gorlaks next time, that'll be most of the humanoid creatures that can weild weapons, except for the elemental men of course.

Are there still slots left? I'd really like to give this a try.

Ok I think I have this right;

Thud the Mad.

Human -240

Sword -  90 Proficient
Dodge - 50 Skilled

Steel Long Sword - 96

For a grand total of 236 points

Description -
Thud is mad. In more sense than one, he is quite insane and quite furious. He is so insane in fact that he believes the noise a sword makes when meeting flesh is best described as "Thud". For the most part he spends his time raging over the position of the clouds in the sky, the direction the river flows, the color of his hair, in fact it would simply be easier to list the things he doesn't rage about. Any attempt to converse with Thud is met with a blank stare, unless one brings up the art of swordsmanship. Thud can converse for hours on the topic even going so far as to quote famous treatises in the field.

Edit; I did some rearrange after a bit of thought.

There sure are pal, I'll probably wait until we've 32 gladiators to begin.

Absolutely, go right ahead my friend, let me know when you've done it, just post the new one so I can edit my stuffs.
How many points would a Platypus man get?

They are about 35,000 urists in size but due to their venomous kick attack, I'll make 'em 270 points! With that I realized that there is no kicking skill on the chart, assume that kicking is the same as striking.

Just a small note, people should start adding a sentence or two of flavor text to their characters.

^ Ooo, that! It would help me to know what to say in a match description. Otherwise I just make up whatever seems likely from their name and title. Certainly not a necessity.

I like this idea.

I am gladiator 16/32, hehe.

Anyways, if this flavor text thing takes off, here is mine:

An adventurous dwarf who got on the first wagon to Boatmurdered. After failing to create the legendary artifact loincloth of his dreams, he went insane, murdering several other dwarves in his rage before getting arrested and hammered for his heinous crimes.

FAST EDIT: We should try to get the first tournament into the hall of fame considering how quickly it grew.

I looked it up, and Kicking is it's own skill, Striking is for punches. Just so that platypus guy doesn't wind not being poisonous. Hold up, I realized I misread that. I now realize you meant that Kicking and Striking cost the same.

Is it cool if I redo the guy I made in my post above? I've had an actual character concept, one that I could easily write a few sentences of flavor text about, however it's a good bit different than what I have above.

Go right ahead, gladiators aren't set in stone until the tourney begins! And hell, if you wanna get me into the hall of legends, that'd be sweet.

Hell the growth of that first thread is legendary on it's own, I mean, spam-type threads in a general discussion area is one thing, but a community-interactive game? I had to look several times to realize that it said 2015, not 2012 above those thirteen pages that came out of nowhere.

Just nominate/vote for it, though it won't be eligible for nomination for a certain period, forget how long exactly.
