Name: MD Kleist
Race: Human
Skill: 3 hammer, 2 shield
Items: Bronze hammer, iron chain shirt, iron legging, iron helmet, copper shield

Requesting that Voxnar gets a shot at this guy.  Hammertime!
Something tells me this is gonna be bad news, but as a fan of Voxacillin I can't back down from this. Draig, unless you've got something better planned I wanna turn Voxnar into paste!

Well since I completely passed out the instant I hit the bed yesterday we're going to be running the cthulu match today, then we'll try to have three standard fights.

Voxnar Vs. MD Kleist

Remalle Vs. Kzel

Jmod Vs. Ragathgare


Spoiler (click to show/hide)
When that one comes up the beastie will probably have its fire breath taken away OR I assume direct control of the dragon, otherwise it's suicide for anyone without a shield.

Well Cthulu is a wily bastard so it took us a while to get him into the arena for combat. (Rent-A-Guards fall for that old dead-but-dreaming trick every single time.) He is here now though and we hope to make this one of our greatest battles, it certainly has an element of risk as well as a excellent reward should any of our gladiators survive.

Powder Maceman, due to his rather indiscriminate tendencies in a fight all of the other gladiators have been urged to, and I quote our beastkeeper here, "Not look too much like Cthulu."

Gaaben, The only person able to establish a conversation with Powder, granted their conversations generally revolve around how best to break a person's knees backwards.

Chazzy, looking for vengeance he stumbled int a match against Cthulu, it might not be what he intended but still... He has two swords, a temper, and beast covered in tentacles. What more could a dwarf want?

Vs.

Cthulu, Priest of the Old Ones, Scion of madness, and probably a Great Old One himself. Whatever he is you can be fairly sure he's badass.

The gladiators are eager, Powder keeps shouting at cthulu, and cthulu is complaining that he's going to go mad if Powder doesn't shut up. Charzy is scraping his swords together for lack of something better to do, and Gaaben is pantomiming bashing crab legs and eating them. Cthulu however won't be an easy foe, at eight tons their best hope is to incapacitate him and hope for a lucky killing blow.



Chazzy is down! Cthulu unleashes a mighty head chomp crushes his skill into a pulp, Powder and Gaaben attack with redoubled ferocity in an attempt to avenge their comrade. Gaaben bites Cthulu in the flipper to almost no effect, and Powder unleashes the full force of his flails upon Cthulu but only manages to bruise him. Cthulu uses one of his great pincers to swipe off one of Powder's hands, then sends him flying a tentacle bash that collapses on of Powder's lungs. Sensing victory cthulu swarms over to where powder lies unconscious and prepares to strike, at that moment gaaben (he finally released the grip of his teeth on cthulu's fin) jumps on top of cthulu, and brings his hammer down upon cthulu's awful head. There is a sickening crunch and then the great beast slowly topples sideways. 




Well done indeed Gaaben, your skill with that hammer will become the stuff off legends I'm sure. Your rewards are well earned, take them and the shadowsteel mask, may they serve you well. Powder, well you did what you could but... missing a hand, ribs broken, and a broken lung I feel it is safe say that you were the damsel in distress for this fight. Chazzy, may you rest in peace.

Anyone who doesn't bet on Remalle is a damned fool. No offense to Kzel, but he's the oldest living fighter in the thread and a goddamn juggernaut because of it. When he upgrades from iron it will be terrifying.

Jmod and Rag should be interesting. I'm leaning toward the dwarf over the gnome personally, but that could seriously go anywhere.

I.....I HOPE I win  :P. To be honest I'm rather intimidated by that 6 hammer, but hopefully my bronze will make the difference. And the shield I guess, but without any skill in it I'm not holding my breath.

EDIT: To be clear, I'm not betting. I'm tempted to put something down on Remalle or even myself, but I think I'll wait until I have more gear to spare. Or at least until I know Mr Kleist can survive at least one fight.

Hmm Well It would probably be in poor taste to bet on matches that I'm sponsoring...

Anyway I'll give you guys two hours to finalize your bets, then I'll start running the actual fights.

double skill earnings, 4 points worth of any item(s), and the combatant who strikes the killing blow will receive a Darksteel Mask.

+2 hammer dorfing

redeem the 1 warhammer, 1 shield, 1 helm, 2 gauntlets, Iron mail shirt for six points, plus the four = ten.

SO.

one bronze warhammer (3), one bronze shield (3), Bronze mail shirt (3), two leather gloves (1).

this leaves me at...

GAABEN-
inv: bronze warhammer, bronze shield , Bronze mail shirt , two leather gloves, Darksteel mask, and pig iron brick

skiiiills: 6 hammer dorfing, 2 armor using, 1 shield user, 1 dodge

bam.

True, so true. I don't value my chances particularly high. I guess my brain was even more affected than I thought, going up after the champion so soon, especially against a dwarf, almost fully armored and using an axe while I have both hands and feet unprotected. I predict another horrible death by dismemberment  :-[.

Gaaben has the highest Skills at the moment actually, and you are closer to Remalle than you think. Close enough that I would bet on you were I not arena master.

Wait a moment, I did say I was not going to try and stop corruption did I not? In fact I told people to suck it up and deal with it! I guess having power makes you... strangely responsible. Huh.

Callahan Will bet his greaves that Kzel wins.

Now I have an errand to run but I will be running the first match ASAP

I hope Callahan wasn't too attached to these greaves ;)

In fact, my next fighter will be :

Kzel III aka The Copper Can
Race : dwarf
Gender : male
Skills : Hammerdwarf 5
Equipment : Copper War Hammer, Copper Shield, Iron Helm (bet), Copper Greaves, Copper Mail Shirt, Copper Gauntlet (x2), Copper High Boot (x2)

And he will bet his Iron Helm that Kzel II the cave swallow man will lose against Ramalle.

I have no way (that I know of) to modify your strength or agility, so your five skill picks have to be normal skills (Armor user, lasher, striker, etc)

I'll put those two points in armor user and misc. user
