Horatio Hirschfeld - Squire imbued with fae powers, in the Coliseum of Conquest (W2/L1) DM for Reavers of Harkenwold, and sometimes The Fighting Grounds of the Coliseum
OOC: hey guys, I have thought a lot about this, but I am going to need to take a step out for at least this school term. With school, and work I have not found the time to maintain this PBP. I don’t want to make you all wait for me. I may return later this year, but for now I am going to say goodbye. Thanks for the good times, especially you Toren.
Zævert appears as the darkness vanishes. His eyes blank as he staggers out of the arena, dropping his shield, and shadowy battle axe. Leaving them
Gewonnt gives up on hiding in this barren pit and disengages, flying to C3.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
death save 19
OOC: one thing that's been bugging a bit, nothing serious its just the way you make revival magic seem like such an expensive thing, in all honesty as long as no vital organs go missing either revivify or raise dead will do and those only cost 300 or 500 hundred gold, not much for a place that throws around 300 for a single 1st level win, even then with missing vital organs revive only costs 1000, sorry for ranting just wanted to say
(You also need to pay people to find those resources.)

Still they hand out, hundreds of gold coins each match and have a gigantic vault, which, really undermines 1000 gold worth of diamond, sure you pay people for the resources but, in all honesty it's not that much

Marvarax andSora (Dragonborn) The retired fighter and WIP scholar - Glory
Brythel(Dwarf), The dwarf with a gun - survival at sea
Jaylin(Human), Paladin of Lathander's Ancient ways - The Seven Saints (Azura Claw)
Urselles(Goblin), Cleric of Eldath- The Wizard's challenge
Viclas Tyrin(Half Elf), Student of the Elven arts- Indrafatmoko's Defiance in Phlan
(100 gold for first victory. Did I make it seem like a lot? "[It's] costly, but the arena is lucrative." Is what I said. If you would die, I'd sooner have the staff stabilize you than revive you if it won't effect the outcome of the match. However, your medical bills when participating in a professional sport should not exceed your pay.)
"Argoth has had enough of this cat and mouse game."
Argoth runs the edge of the field, leaps over the low wall, drops his axe, and pulls out a lighter throwing axe. He throws it as he moves through the air and... Inspite of the difficult shot with Gewonnt behind partial cover (1/2) he lands the shot, barely.
(Give me an athletics check DC10 to stick the landing or fall prone.)
Argoth and Marvarax win the match. As the fog recedes Marvarax has been healed by a medic within. Edros has been stabilized. Basil slips into the ring to present the victors.
Basil leads the winners to the prize room. You each gain 600xp to advance to level 3, along with a prize of 200 gold. (Marvarax, for comparison about gold: Fah'lin (current) just weaseled his way into an armor upgrade for 250 or so gold, nearly everything he had at level 3.)
In the prize room you may choose one prize...
Tier 1:
"Take any one item. We're well equipped." The room contains every item from Chapter 5 of the Player's Handbook weighing 70 pounds or less, armor of varying sizes, instruments, tool kits. There are also spell scrolls, every first level spell is present (as well as spell scrolls of a level for which a magic user of the characters new level would have slots for), and an encyclopedia of knowledge. Reading these books will grant you proficiency with any one of tool kit or any one language, depending which book you choose. The books are magically infused to allow easy retention, but the magic is lost once used.
Upper Tier:
The victor may choose an item from a magically infused chest that summons 10 randomly selected magic items to choose from (rarity determined by level). Alternatively they may exchange a magic item for another item of their choosing of the same rarity or lower, if the administrator has the requested item in his extensive collection. "You name it, we've probably got one somewhere."
The Pits:
Gewonnt is struggling to hide.
Argoth moves on his position.
The interloper hides in the expanding fog. Stealth: !13
(Dashing is an action)
Marvarax.. (!6) groans
Edros.. (!18) shivers
