ArenaEl Tigre is always ready, since he is always in character. Nonetheless, when the cameras are on, he turns it up to 11.
El Tigre runs up to a drone that is near ground level, and yanks it from the air. He starts screaming into its camera in Spanish, amping up his fans, and himself. He brandishes the metal insect's wings, holding it up like a championship belt, and with a final primal yell, releases the poor drone.

El Tigre can almost the excited cries of fans and fans-to-be as he whips himself into a frenzy, roaring at the drone!
The walls of the crate come away revealing a ten foot high roiling mass of coiled metal tentacles. In the centre is a smooth round metal body with a single camera eye.
A voice booms from all the drone as a simultaneous surround-sound.
"WELCOME TERRATERROR FANS TO THE FIGHT YOU HAVE ALL BEEN UPVOTING. THE MASKED MYSTERY MAN, FOUND WANDERING THE DEEPEST WILDS OF ENGLAND, LOOKING FOR A FIGHT. HE'S ALREADY DESTROYED A GAIA INSECTOID III WITH HIS BARE HANDS! GIVE IT UP FOR EL TIGRE PICANTE!"
There's a pause for cheering (somewhere but not here) before the drone continues.
"PLUCKED FROM THE THAMES RIVER WHERE IT WAS TERRORIZING THE IRON TOWER. GIVE IT UP FOR AN ORIGINAL GAIA TENTACOILER WITH SEVENTEEN CONFIRMED KILLS! WHO WILL PREVAIL?"
Flooded SchoolUse the wrench and just try to hold off cyber-wolf this turn. Hopefully my ally can finish it.
[Sandeep rolled 3+4+0body-1wound+1wrench=7]
Sandeep smashes his socket wrench into the face of the cyberwolf, destroying one of its camera eyes and bending some of its razor teeth. He goes for a second sweep, buying Tim Tam some time. The wolf snaps its jaws, grabbing the wrench out of Sandeep's hands and with a toss of its chrome head, it flings the wrench across the playground.Sandeep no longer has a socket wrench.
CathedralKeiko, Agasha and Kateryna leap into the cart moments before Amoretto blasts it forward. It hurtles northbound...High Bridge...across a high bridge, still intact. They see the river below and the whole city stretched out around them.
"We just need to get clear of the city and then it'll be plain riding on the open road," says Cass, aiming her crossbow at the pack of cyberbeasts that stalk after the travellers. The bike has a good lead on them, but the beasts are untiring.
As they cross the bridge, Cass indicates a pile of old rifles in the back of cart. "They hate getting shot at, they should flee if we get a good hit on them."
As she speaks the cyberrhino begins to charge towards them. A great chromeplated beast, his horn a halberd blade, his tail a morning star. Cass lets loose her crossbow and the bolt pings harmlessly off the cyberrhino's armour, the beast continuing undeterred.Keiko, Kateryna and Amoretto gain +1 for exploration.
A Note On Fast TravelWhen travelling in a vehicle, you can get places much quicker, but when travelling through areas without threat, you don't get exploration tallies for every hex passed through. You learn the colour of the hex, and travel stops when there are particularly interesting features.
