Dinner at the Gladiator's Hall is interrupted by a loud trumpet. A herald with a Taldan noble crest addresses the room in a clear and confident voice. "Gladiators! Count Agaman invites the strongest amongst you to do battle in the Grand Arena of Ridonport! Glory and money await the winners!"
Sorry to threadjack, but I've been inspired by this arena and would love to imitate it in a level 6, team-based setting. Check this link for details.

Evil Ginger, can you spoiler me an email address i can send yoru maps to? I'm not gonna set up a flickr account solely for this purpose.
Galdyn, can you either do the same or check to see if you can see my maps from the previous fight?
Once that is done, i can get the game up and running. The map is chosen, I just need to get the ability to get them to you. Everyoen else will have to make do with the map-viewign i used last time.

I can see the maps that you used for your last fight. The next few days are going to be kind of hectic for me, because I am going to be driving cross country. Things will mellow out a bit next week, though. Not sure if that messes with your time line. I should be able to post once a day for the next few days, but not much more than that.

That's fine. We'll go ahead and get started, and if it lags, then it lags, and we'll finish up when we can.
Final Round 1 Fight!
The same wood and stone thing limps its way back into the room, unspeaking as it points at Galdyn, then Gregious, then hikes one wooden thumb back towards the second arena, it's white sands nearly glowing in their pristine starkness.
Go ahead and report in on the this thread. If you want, you can go ahead and have your introductions made for you. As always, you willl have your weapons stowed, and Galdyn, you will be leading your horse in, instead of starting the match mounted.

Galdyn, you back to being able to post yet? Not trying to rush you, but we are the last fight of this round, and I'm sure people are itching to move into round 2.
I was about to ask had this thing died. I say we give him until Monday. I guess you can pick a random monster from the bestiary or bestiary 2, and have one of us run it. The monster does not advance to the next round though. The player a certain number of gold if he won. I guess half of the gold we were allowed to start with seems fair, but it is up to you.

Last call for Galdyn. If I don't get a post from you tomorrow morning here, then you forfeit your match, and Gregious will either advance or have to face somone/something else.

I am voting for him to face something unless a new competitor signs up. I think that having a monster face the odd man out adds a little something to this.
PS:With my luck I will be killed by one of these random monsters since it was my idea.

This is assuming he has nobody to go against.

As you all watch Gregious walk into the arena, you barely notice a group of four halflings saunter in… and you're even more surprised when you realize they all look nearly identical, even the girl. Thin, sun-tanned with sandy blond hair and bright brown eyes, the four joke constantly and eye the challenger board. You realize you recognize these four from the Arena 2 Billings Board… they help run it, as well as join in the fun from time to time.
These are my four stand-in Arena 2 NPC's. They'l be options for these off-fights where we have to get in the odd-numbered gladiator fight.
1 - Taz
2 - Zap
3 - Ran
4 - Shar
.
1d4 ⇒ 3
The tallest of the halflings lets out a whoop, pulling his bow off his back as he trots off towards the Arena 2 entrance. The other four send jeering calls after him, good-naturedly teasing him about how poorly he'll undoubtedly do.
Okay, one of you players has the chance to run Ran for me. Who wants to do it? I'll build him out, but you get the honors of pitting him against Gregious.
First come basis... who's gonna play Ran against Gregious?

Excellent, Torinath! Here's his stats. He has some gold left over if you want to pick up any last-minute items, but you can't mess with what's already chosen.
In the arena thread, you can post from whatever avatar you want to, just let me know which one. I'll re-do the intro's for both characters, so expect that today or tomorrow.
Evil Ginger, you going to be ready to go?

Torinath |

Which would be fine, but we havne't heard from Ember since December.
I don't know if we should cut our losses and move on or not. If we do have to, we're gonna need another DM, since SHaye is alive and kicking in this mug.
WAit.. Does Ember = Evil Ginger?
I meant Evil ginger... accidentally merged the two :(

Okay, I'm just gonna call an audible here. I can help run this thing a bit (if people are still interested). Though I'll need a co-DM to help me get through the rounds as I don't have a lot of extra time every day to push it forward.
If I could get someone to split the fights with me, we'll move forward.
So, two things, who's still interested in fighting in this arena game? And who will help me DM them?
