Stage Name: Greased Lightning
Manager: Diatere
Race: Sloth Bear Woman
Starting Points: 190
Skills: Novice Axesloth (5), Novice Dodger (5)
Equipment: Steel Greataxe (120)
(49 points leftover)

Known for fucking shredding it on the stage, Greased Lightning never seems to stop moving. She's fast, she's loud, and she doesn't seem to sleep.
Her (former) bandmates decided she's too much of a health risk to keep around and kicked her out, so now she's here. In the Arena. With her "axe" being used as an actual axe.
This is sure to go well for her.


Let's go gambling!

Name: Tree-Dweller
Manager: Enemy post
Race: Gorilla
Starting points: 165
Skills: Competent swordsman (30), Skilled dodger (50), Novice fighter (3), Adequate discipline (9).
Equipment: Iron longsword (48), iron helm (24).
(1 point leftover).

The Age of Channelwood is over. Long ago, the apes and men of Channelwood lived in peace. One day, the Age began to flood. Through unknown means, the humans successfully prevented the flooding, at the apparent cost of their extinction. The apes remembered the humans as gods and heroes for this, recreating them in art and worship. Later, a family of humans returned to Channelwood, but this time they came not as saviors. Two of their number, Sirrus and Achenar, chose to rule the apes as cruel gods before hunting them all down and exterminating them. It was thought that the apes and their overcomplicated tree villages were no more. However, one still remains. Tree-Dweller survived the massacre, and eventually discovered a strange Linking Book hidden within the village. Using the book, he found himself on a strange island covered in strange buildings and machinery. Maddened by betrayal and obtuse puzzles, Tree-Dweller stalks through the Ages, honing his skills in preparation for the day he is able to find the traitor gods.

Name: Barbara "Biddie" Vicious
Manager: Cut-More-Supreme
Race: Sloth Bear Woman
Starting points: 190

Equipment: Iron battle axe (48) Copper gauntlets (10) Copper low boots (10)

Skills: Competent Fighter (18) Skilled Axewoman (60) Competent Dodger (30) Competent Armor user (12)
2 points remaining.

Lore: Biddie “Barbara” Vicious is a Sloth Bear woman who comes from a warlike clan in the far off mountains. This clan was known for their cultivation of a special strain of plump helmets that would infuse a warrior with immense strength and an inoculation to pain. Biddie, for her part, mostly just liked to hang out and chill with some downers. She had sworn never to touch the stuff.

Alas, one day a young troublemaker in the village replaced her personal mushroom supply with the rage-inducing variety for a bit of a lark. As the smoke and screams drifted away from the ruined village, Biddie was filled with a dark shame and a desire to use her now unending rage to find glory in the arena. And... also to warn young folk across the land of the dangers of messing with someone’s personal stash when you don’t know their tolerances.

given his name from the goblin nations of the south, after they found entire warrens smashed to paste with no signs of an army, only large  footprints among the carnage and crude sketches of a building on the walls.  OxNgosnud doesn't talk much, but his manager assures us he is here as part of a promotional tour for his new combat style, sas-squash.

Novice axe user is 6 points, and after subtracting everything, you have 59 points left, not 49. Is this acceptable?

Backstory:

Urist McRegister was sitting in his booth, having helped many gladiators register he now was having a fairly slow day and was bored. Just as he was about to drift off, he heard a loud commotion coming from down the street which woke him with a jolt. Rounding the corner heading towards his booth, was a giant ant with wings wielding an iron 2 handed sword, dragging along 15 roachmen uselessly trying to hold her back.
“Aunt Ana please! You don’t have to do this!” one Roachman says. “He’s right! Our brothers and cousins will be avenged, but just because we don’t have another fighter as skilled as you right now, doesn’t mean you have to throw your life away!” This causes the Ant to stop in her tracks and spin on her heels to face.
   “Am I not skilled?! Am I not strong?! Am I not a Pastor same as all the rest of you?!” Yelled out the large Ant. This causes the roachmen following behind her to stiffen up at the mention of her not being a part of their family, as if she doesn’t know she’s not a roach man. One of the roach men finally spoke up, “That’s not what we intended to say. Ever since Carlos got hurt in the training accident, you’ve been training obsessively. You keep saying we need to always have a Pastor enter, to avenge the fallen, but you don’t have to do this. We don’t want to lose you…”
   The Ant pauses for a second, visibly saddened by the lack of faith the roachmen have for her. “You won’t have to worry about me getting hurt. I’m the strongest of our family, I could take on an army and come out alive, and I can’t rest while we just let our name be tarnished by our inaction when we have the potential to DO something.” The ant then turns towards the booth once again. “Cease trying to stop me brothers and sisters, I’ll drag you with me to the center arena if I have to.”
“I’ll win it all! For our fallen brothers, Carlos and Diego! For dearest Mother and Sister! For our family, House Pastor!” None of the roachmen tried stopping her this time, reaching the registration booth she slammed down an entrance application. “Let all know the House Pastor has returned to the arena, and that Aunt Ana Pastor first of her name shall avenge her fallen brothers!”
