At 10th-level are we allowed a gold allowance for purchasing gear that is not a weapon or arcane focus? If not, then are we simply given a free pass for anything non-magical, non-weapon, and non-focus?
Are you allowing Order of Scribes wizards then? One of their basic features is an awakened spellbook, which can appear as a familiar-like entity, and also is their arcane focus.
My first choice would be Order of Scribes, so I am waiting on the above answers to decide if I need to go a different route.

Order of Scribes is allowed and you may use the awakened spell book. Apart from that you have a 200gp allowance for any non-magic non-weapon items.
Let's ask the same question worded differently and disguised as me wondering how long this'll take: Is this going to be a short fight, or a long Hunger Gamesish competition? I'd like to get the character slot back soon.

There's only four players and the stadium itself will be trying to kill you so it shouldn't be too long.

You materialise into the blinding daylight, blistering heat, and rough, uneven ground beneath your shoes. You have memories of your name, fighting skills, and everything you can do, but you don't remember how you got here or even where you are.
Before your eyes adjust you hear a booming voice saying;
"WHO CAME HEAR TO SEE A FIGHT?!" The response to which is a loud stomping of feet a mixture of cheers, screams, and maniacal laughs
"YES! YES! I LOVE THAT ENERGY! Please give a warm welcome to your challengers!" The voice then repeats each of your names, and as he does so your eyes adjust, and you see that you are in a coliseum, at least 200 feet across, standing in a circle. The walls have to be 400 feet high, though the fact that the flames are roaring makes it a bit difficult to tell. The ground is littered with previous challengers that met gruesome fates, and their sickly sweet rotting stench fills the air. On the East, West, North, and South walls stand wrought Iron gates, attached to mechanisms that raise and lower them. You stand no more than 30 feet apart from each other, and 30 feet directly in front of you are your weapons.
"Now, let's remember to fight dirty! WE ALL CAME HERE, TO SEE A FIGHT! I DON'T WANT ANY OF THIS HONOR STUFF IN MY ARENA! I WANT TO SEE INNOVATION, I WANT TO SEE STRATEGY! I WANT TO SEE BLOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDDDD!!!! LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!!!"

Here is a quick and dirty map I threw together in Discord. Is this how you are having us start out, or is there something different you have in mind? You said we were in a circle, 30 feet from each other, and with the weapons, and such, 30 feet away from us. I assumed this meant in the middle of our circle.
Also, are the magical items we are starting with in the pile of weapons and such, or do we have those on us already? I assume we would not have things like Mage Armor cast as of yet though.
So we start with starter armor?

You will find out soon enough. That sounded ominous, It's really not. It's everything else you should be worried about.
Farewell.
Okay then.

That is a fair representation of what I had in mind, The magical items are on you, and no, you do not have Mage Armor cast.
Farewell.
