Just a simple RTD for duels, team battles, free-for-alls, and PvE variants of these. These battles are meant to be highly lethal and end in a few turns. Practice matches will last longer.

TRAINING

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

ENTER, YOU: You are an adult human. Let me know if you are a Gladiatrix, a female fighter. And if you are left handed or ambidextrous, if not right handed. You can describe yourself as having tatoos or ornamental helmet but are otherwise naked. If you die or are critically maimed you may respawn or create a new character, losing all you have gained. You can die from fights with live weapons against players and npcs, and against animals that are clearly described as lethal.

DUMMY: Use live weapons against a stuffed dummy with a head and body over a wooden cross. A human shaped stationary target.

SPARRING: Equip a practice weapon and protective helmet as you fight another player. Risk of temporary injury. Surrender by raising a finger.

TURKEY: Equip a live weapon and protective helmet as you fight a turkey. A fast moving turkey target. Risk of temporary scratches and permanent scars. Surrender by fleeing the arena or requesting help.

ROOKIE TRIAL: Equip a live weapon and protective helmet as you fight a series of increasingly difficult non lethal animals. How far can you get? You can bring a teammate. Risk of temporary scratches and permanent scars.

VETERAN TRIAL: Equip a live weapon and protective helmet as you fight a series of increasingly difficult lethal animals. How far can you get? You can bring a teammate. Risk of temporary and permanent injury. And death.

EXPERT TRIAL: Equip a live weapon and protective helmet as you fight a series of increasingly difficult NPC humans to the death. How far can you get? You can bring a teammate. Risk of temporary and permanent injury. And death.

DUEL TO THE DEATH: Equip a live weapon and protective helmet as you fight another player to the death. Risk of temporary and permanent injury. And death. Surrender by raising a finger, the audience will vote if you fought valiantly enough to be sparred.

EVEN MORE:

• I am an available referee for PURE NOMIC "Global Directors" to resolve disputes via a Duel to the Death.
• Beware: Global Directors and Citizens may be considered to be killed in Pure Nomic when they die here, depending on the rules of that game. All activities will have informed risks.
• (Planned) In fights versus other Pure Nomic players, your Spirit Warrior will be able to enhance your skills or temporarily grant new ones.
• If you are interested in these, register as a Director or Citizen in PURE NOMIC. Otherwise feel free to play the base game without signing up to Pure Nomic. You can convert your character later.

Not sure, maybe there can be a setting, decided by the participants, and the participants would improvise weapons based on the setting? Here is a draft of a character

Name: Amalgamate
Appearance: an amalgamation of various animals, kept “alive” by necromancy

Maybe. That may be a good way for different hosts to differentiate. I'd mainly focus on Roman themes and pre existing weapons in the world.

[Liberonscien]

I would tend towards urban fantasy/sci-fi characters, personally. Magic automatons, cyborgs, necromantic creations, and so on.

Weapons for the first would be alchemical/artificer, the second would be sci-fi weapons, and for the third necromantic creations.

Good, I already have a necromantic Creation:)

I made an edit.

[Liberonscien]

An example of an alchemical weapon would be a potion that the user drinks/throws/other.

[Naturegirl1999]

Wait, so the character itself can’t be a necromantic construct?
If I’m interpreted no wrong please tell me

No rule forbids it so I don't see why you couldn't do that.

If I was going to make a necromantic character then I would probably go for a lesser holy lich, a low power lich that is on the side of good, basically.

[Liberonscien]

It is able to be a holy lich because it doesn't break divine laws. It gets permission to use the corpses and stuff.

[Naturegirl1999]

Name:Elra
Appearance:A lich, she looks like a skeleton now except for bits of muscle and skin
Goal:To found a society of and for the undead
Alignment:Osiris

[Liberonscien]

Name: Scar Crow
Appearance: A lich. A skeleton with metal armor and a white cloak.
Goal: To create a race of sapient undead cyborgs using parts taken from his enemies.
Alignment: Scintilla, goddess of science.

What kind of game is this, are we just making it up as we go or what?
