"Welcome, Lord, Lady, your seats await," the little bogun said bowing low to his masters as they stepped out of the magical corridor into a brightly lit open area. A short balcony holding two tall ornate chairs was in front of them. The roar of the crowd greeted their entrance as thousands, possibly millions, of individuals cheered out from the beautiful colliseum seating. Below a massive sand arena glistened in the bright artificial sunlight of this magical realm. Gazing about, those in attendance could see that the stadium appeared to be floating in a massive void filled with shimmering stars, galaxies, and nebula. To the sheer awe of the crowd a radiance dragon flew over head, floating through the black void and paying the assemblage no mind. It was the perfect place for a tournament such as this.
Gazing out over the balcony the King and Queen of Fairie raised their hands causing another uproar of applause. One of the king's attendants, a cluracan, stepped forward and called out over the crowd, his voice magically amplified to reach the ears of the entire assemblage. "Welcome, honored guests. My Lord Oberon and my Lady Titania bid you welcome to this day of festivities and merriment! Soon we will see masters of warfare clash against wielders of magical power, champions of deities versus minstrels of unparalleled reknown. And perhaps, we will see a bit of bloodshed!" The fairy pauses for a moment as the crowd roars into thunderous applause once again. "Now, sit back, raise your tankard of ale, glass of wine, or other vessel of liquid in toast to our gracious hosts, and in prayer to all the deities of battle to look kindly upon us tonight and give us a brilliant show! Let us let the games begin!" The crowd erupted in praise to Lord Oberon and Lady Titania and the trumpets blared as the day's festivities began.
((OOC))
Alright, I decided to get the ball rolling and start this, the very first arena style battle tournament.
Rules:
3.5 Rules
Only official 3.5 books (Core books, Draconomicon, Complete Warrior, Complete Divine, etc...) and Planewalker stuff
Level 10
Stat Roll 4d6 drop lowest six times
Equipment as a level 10 character
For hit points I use the same method they do in Living Greyhawk, which is max at first level, and half+1 of the hit die each level afterwards (adding con bonus as usual).
PM me your character sheets and I'll approve you
Your characters are voluntary warriors. And remember, these are fey, they like a bit of bloodshed and perhaps a LITTLE death....
Got it? Good. Let the games begin!
