Arena Battles (Now Dead, Sorry All its been a great run.)
« on: January 16, 2011, 12:21:42 am »

Well, Inspired by the other thread I decided to start this

Races allowed:
--------------------------------------
Gnome
Dwarf
Goblin
Elf
Human
Kobold

Skill And Equipment:
----------------------------------------------------
To start with You get to add 5 Skill points to any skill.
(IE, 1= 1 level in the skill picked)
After a battle if you win you gain a point you can store under any skill.

Okay people, So were going to try to implament a diffrent armour system! Thanks to the help of Draignean. Currently this is in to test how well it works
Also, The metals been edited so its slightly closer together!
The metal's will go like this,  Copper->Iron->Bronze->Steel->Faerie Silver*->Shadowsteel*->Adamantium
Each tier is 10% Increase in quality, while it does makes for more humdrum breaks it also eliminates the massive gaps between the metals that made it very difficult to offer non-generic equipment.
Also possible change to the system, need feedback on, is whether you can get anything other than iron on character generation. If this were to be implemented you would get 10 points to spend on items, and the material of the item dictates how much it costs.
So say Copper costs 1, iron 2, Bronze 3, Steel 5, Faerie Silver* 7, Shadowsteel* 10, Adamantium 15.
You can go with the standard 5 iron, or you can downgrade a little and grab a full suit of armor at the cost of it being slightly lower quality, or go all out offensive and grab a Shadowsteel Great axe and nothing else. Also if this were implemented you would have the option to reject any item from your opponent's corpse and convert their best item into points at half the point value of the original item. (Minimum 2)
If an experienced character wished to upgrade their Arms or Armor because they had filled all of their armor slots they would PM me with what they wanted and I'd update them.(Me stands for Draignean, As he is the cuirrent Manger)
Yes, When you pick either Guantlets or boots you only receive one.(Unless you specifically say Two copper boots or such)
After a fight if you win you get to pick one of any of the equipment your enemy had. (Assumeing you dont convert your own item)
Also due to a suggestion animal trainer skill has been added.
1                    - Cat, Fox
2                    - Groundhog
3                    - Dog
4                    - Leopard'
5                    - Tiger

Dealing with wounds:
--------------------------------------------------------
Following under the ideal that after combat a warrior gets rest and patched up for his next battle,
Any wounds received are gone.

Place of combat:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Due to the incostency of one host it can really range from self created places to other areas.
As such there is no "Offical" combat area as of yet.

How does Combat work?:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Each day I will do up to five battles.
You will be matched with someone around the same level of skill and equipment .
Some who fought and won Three times won't be squared againsit a new person.
The Combat log will be taken a picture of and posted along with a additonal picture of the victor standing by the bloody mess of the enemy.

What If I lost a battle?
-------------------------------------------------
Once you lose a battle you have to re-apply for a new combatatient.

It gets down to what I would rather lose.

Helm or boot: Yeah I think I have a slightly better chance of winning if my foot gets lopped off rather than my head.
Gauntlets or boot: Feet don't hold shields or weapons. Losing a foot is bad, getting your damn sword hand lopped off is a death sentence.
Body armor or boot: Uh huh, I think I would rather be stabbed in the foot than the chest.
Greaves or boot:  Losing a foot is better than losing a leg.

I told you I'd be back, and sure enough!

Name: Woody Alan
Race: Elf
Gender: Male
Skill Choices: 1 Axe, 3 Dodge, 2 Shield
Items choosen: Axe, Shield, Helm, Gauntlets x2, High Boot
Bio: Tired of taking everyone's shit, Woody decided to step out of the forests and strike fear into those who would ridicule his kind. We still don't know where and Elf got iron, since this implies he either killed a person or met a trader willing to do business; two impossibilities for Elves.

Rewards: 1 Shield, High Boot

Worst Wound: Bruised arm, from (human) WakkaWakka's hammer.
