Gladiator finished...
Sorry, changed my profile a bit. Here is the updated link to my Gladiator :
Why not just apply the changes to the other profile?
Because once I had changed the name, the old link wasn't working properly anymore. I could have just messed up though...

I am updating herolab. After that I will start to verify everyone's class.
Don't forget to copy the list and add a link to your character's profile to it if you are not on the list already. The arena is 95% complete.
All we are waiting on now is for me to verify everyone for the most part.
PS:In your character profile could everyone put a basic outline of what they are holding and wearing such as what type of armor, what weapon, and spell component pouches. In other words things that are clearly visible to an opponent.
Since I don't have the paid version of herolab I will have to do this by hand so but hopefully I will be done by Saturday night/Sunday morning.

(Quandary speaking)
I´m here... I´ve just been working on getting my character together.
Our team has also been discussing by email, so you haven´t seen those posts.
If you´re wondering... This is the (empty) character profile for my PC.
Hopefully I will have the complete, legal character online for Wraith to check out by tomorrow.
Though our team seems to have been slower getting our characters together, not to mention teamwork ideas, so a bit more time may be more realistic.
K, everyone is added to the arena.

I am not in a rush especially since it has to be done by hand now.

Sorry, I've been so ready at work grearing up for deployment that I have had very litle time. I will definetly be complete by Saturday though. Also, I'll email you a Herolab copy of character so it will be easy to verify, (if you want).
If I take the next round, here is my working idea if anyone wants to start with a character. I am thinking a modified 1st level character that can be used for multiple contests.
My idea is to make a 1st level character, but with 3rd level HP, (so the combat is not so random and no easy kills of the bat). There will be additional things as well as I develope my idea, along the lines of a little front loading for 1st level, but slower 2nd - 3rdish level advancement. Alignments are LG, NG, CG, LE, NE, and CE only, with (T)N only for characters that are somewhat restricted to that alignment AND worship a (T)N deity.
I am thinking that it will be a team effort versus an NPC antagonist, but not sure yet. Partially depends on the number of players interested.
Leveling up will be along the lines of every 4 points. Playing in a match is 1 point, and winning a match is another 1 point, (total 2 if you win), so every 3-4 matches is a new level for your character, but not your team per se. Doing something really cool (rare) might get you an addition point, if you win. Still all just a working concept.
Thoughts or ideas?
That almost sounds like an idea for a separate Arena, given the advancement and level of involvement. I think that is part of the reason the other thread died. Advancement is hard to incorporate into an Arena unless it is fast advancement.
This arena was designed mostly for experimentation than anything. But, if it takes a life of its own, it takes a life of its own.

Sounds interesting. I would be interested in trying it out.
DM Barcas here.
Here's a gladiator for next round: the erinyes-inspired magus wielding a scorpion whip. WHI-PSH!
Question: How is Init going to be handled?
I can see each team already knowing their relative order within the group,
but NOT knowing other team´s Init until this is revealed with character actions.
That maintains more surprise, but allows SOME inter-party planning, which seems reasonable since everybody has just spent 3 rounds buffing, etc, so should be aware of inter-party Init order. (NOT revealing actual Init numbers until each PC´s action in-game seems a good idea because it conceals whether the party as a whole has really high init or really low init. The GM rolling Init probably makes sense for this type of approach)
Besides having a written description of all of our´s general appearance, weapons/armor wielded, etc (presuming we saw all of the other team in a pre-arena ceremony, etc?) which is a great idea, I think it´s good to have a solid way how to handle Perception in-game. Perhaps Spoilering Actions/Visibly Active Effects so that only those with LoS can view them?
Is there an arena yet? Will we see it before the game starts?

The arena is 99% complete. It is the same web address as before. I just have to go over everyone's character.
Some of you may have missed the post, but I need everyone to break their attributes down
Example:
STR 20 (base 16, levels 2, belt of strength +2)

As of right now you are using a 36 point buy but you are only allowed 23 points.
** spoiler omitted **
You have yet to make the edit. If you saw the spoiler just make a post here so I know you have the information
Right now I have checked everyone with a completed character except for Dragonborn 3. I am waiting for Quandry to post his, and those who had errors to fix the errors. We are almost ready to begin.
I've got to go soon, so any corrections I have to make will be done tomorrow.
Ok. I will post the review tonight when I get home from work or early tomorrow evening.
Also, I'm adding in Haste bonus, as one of my teammates is casting it in buff rounds.
OK, here goes... (Hyundai has a profile now, with his physical appearance described)
You might want to update the icon, I switched to Human from Half-Orc.
I´m not listing numerical bonuses from buffs I expect to receive from allies, though I do list the (names of) spells/effects we´ve discussed as a team (as much for my benefit). Under spellcasting section, I have ´buff rounds´ layed out as 1 2 3. I wasn´t sure about the Raging Drunk thing, I decided to say that the Move Action didn´t include DRAWING the Potion (even though that weaken the ability substantially), which is reflected in my buff/planned actions... If you rule otherwise, let me know because that would be helpful.
Once we start, I will remove all the ´how i got these numbers´ stuff, and can just have effective stats, and running spells/effects (with duration if under minutes/level). Along with deciding the potion (and BL Energy Type), I might just spend the last money... on MW Spears???
...Oh yeah, I didn´t calculate Encumbrance :-)

btw, some questions about the arena...
what is ceiling height, 40´ same as before?
assuming the wall objects on the grid are indeed walls, how high are they?
how do the buff/debuff square work?
do you have to land on them/end your turn/action, or just pass thru them?
do you have to touch the floor, or is it a column also affecting flyers?
do they persist, i.e. will affect further characters, or are they one-off effects?
I am not home, and have not been home for over 24 hours. I will do the last 2 characters when I get home.
As for the squares they also affect flyers. Once a square is activated it can no longer be used.
Sorry for the wait. I have everyone reviewed now. I am just waiting on corrections then we can start. This is also a good time to ask questions. I will consolidate and post all of rules one more time after everyone is verified.
1st HD is maxed. I think you just gave yourself average which is the reason for the 5 point difference.
You are allowed 23 point guy for being LE
STR 14 [5]
DEX 14 [5]
CON 14 [5]
INT `10 [0]
WIS 10 [0]
CHA 16 [10]
That is 25. You are 2 over the limit
Lobo looks good.
No problemo ^^ ready when you are
