Let's finish tonight's fighting with an unusual sight.


On our left, the famous goblin Mogg ! While there aren't many goblin supporters in the public, his tenacity should be a lesson to us all. He is one of few goblins who managed to go past the first round ! And with quite an unusual setup too, for he wields no weapons but his two trusty iron shields. Let's hope he can redeem them after McLeod's earlier loss.

On our right, Random Elf #3207. His memory loss seems to be getting better, but he still doesn't remember where he put his pants... He wields a dark sword that looks razor sharp, thankfully with enough skill to avoid cutting himself. He seems convinced fighting in the arena can help him regain his memory, and we are glad to help him in his recovery, if he manages to survive that is :)


Random doesn't lose any time and cuts off Mogg's left foot. Unable to stand, the goblins falls to the ground, blocking whatever he can. He's obviously taken tips from the previous fight, for he punches and strikes Random without losing faith, even though his future is more than uncertain.


Surprisingly, he managed to hold off long enough to die of blood loss, but not before Random chopped off his other foot and one of his arms. Congratulations Random Elf #3207, and let's hope this victory will let you finally find those pants !

I just noticed I've been spelling greaves as grieves. Oh the embarrassment.

Also I wanted the shieldblin to win. =(

Okay, the new Mobo is going to cost me more than a shiny penny. So my laptop is my only computer right now, Kzel how do you feel about taking over the arena full time? Honestly I was getting a little bored with the job myself, and my writing style was too limited to do the arena justice. I'd recite a few lines from flander's fields, but that seems a little too dramatic.

If you take the job you have to add 25 more pages and some new content before you hand it off to the next young fool.

PS. Callahan is yours now, let him belong to whoever manages the arena. Use him as a tool to keep balance in the arena.

Makes sense, that puts you at the same skill points as Gaaben. I fixed it.

Yeah me too, I gave him a fight with someone who isn't wearing a helmet to give him a chance, but the fighters proved too much for him.


I can't promise 25 pages by myself, but maybe if we share the work with TolyK we can make it. I can take of the fighters list, but running the battles and writing up something takes far longer than I thought, I don't know if I can handle 3 fights / day for long.

Its offical, Changed the title to validate it.

Sweet sweet victory! I'll take another point into sword. Also how does many points would it be worth to convert Mogg's equipment? If the answer is 1 point I'll take his greaves and call it a day

Quote from: rules
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)
You can convert his best item for 2 points, so you can choose any iron piece you want, or 2 copper pieces.

That's true, but how else will I ever get better things if I don't start saving points?
