Sorry, try this one


Init stays the same for the whole game. As soon as everybody has posted their Init and prep actions, I'll post an Init order and we can start the killing.

Here is the Map
Note: I forgot the "P" on letters side.

This game won't go as fast as Fake Healer's. I'll only be able to post once a day. If it has been 24 hours since your turn was called, I will take your turn for you. If you know you will be unable to post, you should ask someone on your team to take your turns while you are away.


We are using the same map as the first game. Team Kobold is in the north and Team CG is in the south. State starting positions, init, and your prep action.


The plan was to gain XP as you win fights, and have the character stats and a leaderboard on the site. But sice I have created a monster and don't have nearly enough time to keep it restrained, going to let go of the leash.

If any one wants to help with the site and approving characters, we'll try to wrangle the beast back to the ground.

For now, just level your characters to what ever level the next match you want to play in is set. If you want to play in the next match I'm running, the level is 3rd.


Hey Fake Healer, I won't be able to post again til Saturday. I have to go into work early all week. If you will please handle the arena for me thanks.

Vissigoth, your links are a bit off.

http://www.geocities.com/ryandunnam/arena/www.geocities.com/ryandunnam/aren a/getstarted.html

Remove the "www.geocities.com/ryandunnam/arena/" (the better way) or put in "http://" before your "www" and it'll straighten things out.

Also, if you want, you can host the page. I can get some things set up so that it's easier to update. Let me know if you're interested and we can email about it.

Yes please. All this HTML is making my head hurt. I miss Macromedia MX.

And as I never said that the doors are closed, I'll rule that they are open (but I did mean for them to close, I just forgot to SAY it).


Aldurin moves to K5 and attacks Jaycn.
Attack and Damage Rolls (1d20+4=23, 1d10+2=10)
Crit Confirm (1d20+4=6)
Jacyn taks 10 damage. He is now at -2 and needs to make a stabilization roll.
Man, I wish I could roll like this with MY characters


The site is up, but still not finished.

Due to the huge intrest, I'm going to ask everyone to do me a favor.

1) Go to my player page. Click "View" and "Source".

2) This should bring up a Notepad file with a bunch of code. Relpace my info with yours. Do not change anything between the "<" and ">" symbols. (if you know how to do HTML, feel free to set up the links on your page)

3) Click "File" and "Save As", type in your alias name using only lower case characters and use under scores for spaces. Then put ".html" after. EX: your_messageboard_alias.html
*You do not have to give out your e-mail address if you don't want to. If you are playing in the first game, you are considered a "Founding Member".

4) Go to the character template page, and do the same thing. Save as "your_character_name.html"

5) Send me an e-mail with these files attached. I only need one Player page per person, but I need a Character page for each charater you wish to play. My e-mail is: Vissigoth@aol.com

If you need help, just ask. Thanks in advace for doing this. This is going to save me a ton of work. If any of the webmonkeys out there know of an easier way to do this, or want to be the "Offical Arena Webmonkey" let me know.

Aldurin moves to M7 and attacks Haad.
Attack and Damage Rolls (1d20+4=15, 1d10+2=7)
A rare miss!


Here is the duration of Ennoch's spellCause Fear Duration 1d4=2
I'm almost done with the site. It will have the rules, character creation guidlines, and a leaderboard. You can still use Shins, or you can roll up another. Kadrenis doesn't want to play Lidda anymore so she rolled up another character.


Lidda missed.

Aldurin moves to N6 and attacks Lidda.
Attack and Damage Rolls (1d20+4=23, 1d10+2=9)
Crit Confirm (1d20+4=16)
Total Damage=18.
Lidda is at -12hp, she's dead.
Gawd Dayum. Aldurin is a monster. Thanks for keeping this going while I'm at work Fakey. Awed said that for some reason, he couldn't update his character's alias. He posted his stats in the Gamer Connection thread. Cashmer, then Ennoch, then everybody reroll Init. Fakey, if you get to it before I do, you can post the Init order.


Great map tdewitt.

Shins needs to roll a d100, if you roll less than 90, you lose another hp.

After Ennoch's turn, evryone should re-roll Init.
(Shins need also needs to roll another d100.)

Haad is up.


Aldurin's Turn

Aldurin attacks Shins with his bastard sword.
Attack and Damage Rolls (1d20+4=23, 1d10+2=7)
Crit Confirm (1d20+4=21)
Total Damage: 14

Shins is now at -1hp.


That's cool. Shit happens.

Shins ended at R5. Sorry for the confusion.


I'm taking Shins turn for him.

Shins charges toward Aldurin, swinging his heavy flail at Aldurin's kneecaps.

Attack & Damage Rolls (1d20+6=12, 1d10+4=8)

Shins' flail swings wide of Aldurin, missing him by a few inches.

Lidda, your turn.


Wow. I didn't expect so many people to want in on this. Thanks to every one who has shown intrest.

Unfortunatly, the first game is already full. I'm working on a site to post the finalized rules and character sheets, but it's taking some time. If you want to make a character for the Arena, please do so, but don't send them to me just yet. I'm not ready to put them up on the site and I'll probably lose them before the site is done.

Right now, only the three Core books are allowed. Monster races are allowed as long as they don't have any racial hit dice or a level adjustment.

If you are intrested in being an Arena Master, post a list of the books you have access to and proof of your DM skills (preferably a link to a PbP game you have run). After the first game, the Arena Masters will disscuss the possibility of adding non-core books to the Arena.

Remember, you can have as many characters as you want. So you can make a Core character now and a non-Core character when the splatbooks become legit.

Here is a list of books I own:
Player's Handbook
Dungeon Masters Guide
Monster Manual
Monster Manual III
Expanded Psionics Handbook
Complete Arcane
Complete Divine
Complete Warrior
Complete Adventurer
Complete Psionic
Races of the Wild
Races of Stone
Races of Destiny
Races of Eberron
Eberron Campain Setting
Player's Guide to Eberron
Magic of Eberron
Explorer's Handbook
Sharn: City of Towers
Five Nations

I plan on getting:
Player's Handbook II
Dungeon Master's Guide II
Monster Manual II, IV, and V
Libris Mortis: The Book of the Undead
Lords of Madness: The Book of Abberations
Fiendish Codex I and II
Complete Mage
Complete Champion
Complete Scoundrel
The Book of Vile Darkness
The Book of Exalted Deeds
Dragonmarked
Faiths of Eberron
The Forge of War
Secrets of Sarlona
Secrets of Xin'drik
Cityscape
Dungeonscape
Frostburn
Ghostwalk
Sandstorm
Stormwrack


Thanks for the heads-up. I'll play your character for you while your gone. If you've got any guidelines for how you want your character to act, let me know.

How tall are the sandbag walls, by the way?

Yes, the walls provide cover. +4 to AC, +2 to reflex saves. They cost two squares to move through a space containing a low wall. A DC 20 Tumble check will allow you to move normally over them (DC 25 to charge over them).

They are 3' high. It is assumed that you are in a low stance to take advantage of the cover. You don't have to sit or go prone to get the cover bonuses, and you can make attacks and cast spells as normal.

I also just noticed that I left the letter "P" off of the map.

Don't you guy's just LOVE it when your wife DM's for you while your at work.


Unless Aldurin wants to change his action, it's Cashmere's turn.


Init order, Teams, and starting positions are:

Jacyn (Blue) B9
Shins (Blue) C4
Lidda (Blue) B8
Haad (Blue) C13
Talin (Red) Z8
Aldurin (Red) Y4
Cashmere (Red) Z12
- Camella Y13:Z14
Ennoch (Red) Z9

Let me know if you've got a problem with your starting position. Sorry about all the map problems.


Sorry, guy's. I don't know what's wrong with my geo-cities site. Might be all of the orc bondage porn. Let's try this one. If that doesn't work, someone else might have to post the map.


Every body needs to start in their respective color zones please. And two characters can't start in the same square (I'm looking at you, Jacyn and Shins).

I've fixed the letter coodinates so the extend into the starting areas.

Updated Battle Map

Edit: Yes the sandbag walls give you cover.


The noise of the crowd is deafening as you check your weapons and prepare your self for the bloodshed to come. The crowd is chanting, "Fight, fight, fight." The doors open and the sunlight momentarily blinds you. The crowd erupts into cheers and applause as you step into the arena. You see your opponents across the arena. It's time for bloodshed.

State starting position and roll Init (please use Invisible Castle for all your rolls). Blue starts in the north and Red starts in the South.


New map is up. I suggest you print it out to keep track of movement. It should be obvious, but the Red team starts on the south side and the Blue team starts on the north side. Head over to the PbP thread and post your starting position and Init.


I've made some corrections to your characters. Please let me know if I've made any mistakes.

Arctaris
- Changed spiked gauntlet damage from 1d3+7 to 1d4+3
- Changed Bluff from +3 to +5 (4 ranks, +1 CHA)
- Changed Sense Motive from +2 to +4 (4 ranks, +0 WIS)

AWED
- Changed hit points to 11 (max on 1d10 +1 CON)
- What is a composite crossbow? I assumed you meant a composite shortbow. What strength rating does it have?
- Changed Fortitude save to +3 (+2 base, +1 CON)
- Changed Willpower save to +2 (+0 base, +2 WIS)
- You are over the 200gp limit by 64gp. Please fix this.

I'll hopfully finish reviewing characters by saturday.

Blue Team
Arctaris: Raurik 'Shins' Strakeln, Dwarven Fighter
Kadrenis: Lidda Tealeaf, Halfling Rogue
mevers: Jacyn, Gray Elf Wizard
Aubry: Cleric?
