The crowd watches as the two contestants walk out onto the field.  Both undefeated, both proud warriors, but each with a unique style.  Who will walk away from the match, and who will be left in the dust?

[ic=Orbis (http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/view.php?id=5284) HP=124 AC=17]Orbis walks into the Arena, the light glinting off his highly polished armor.  He looks around at the crowd, his shield hanging from his belt, his famous sword sheathed carefully.  He puts three of his four Spears carefully into the ground, the others ready to throw at a moment's notice.  He looks across the field at his opponent, "When you die today, it will be with great honor.  May you spend eternity in the highest place in your god's hall."  He salutes Boris with his spear, and drops into a combat position, ready for the battle.[/ic]

[ic= Boris (http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/view.php?id=4938) ]
Stomping into the arena moments later, Boris makes quite of contrast to Orbis' gleaming form, with his short stature and bladed, black plate armour.  Hey Skinny! I hear the dwarves are the masters where you come from. Ain't nothin' changed, boy. It's exactly the same here." The he pulls out a rock and makes a great show of crushing it in his hand. Where he drops the dust to the ground, the rock seems to boil and a huge rocky beast rises up beside him, then sinks ubruptly back into the ground. Then he rests his hand on his axe, and readies for the fight.[/ic]

[ic=Boris] Boris' boots lift him off the ground and he flies over to hover above the ground near Orbis. He pulls out another stone, crushes it, and it begins to turn into another Rock beast which dive into the arena floor as it hits.[/ic]

[ooc]Why do you insist on putting your character in awkward places?  And where did the Elemental dive?  Your hovering over a pillar.[/ooc]
Title: Arena Match: Orbis vs. Boris Stonebones
Post by: Captain Obvious on November 01, 2006, 08:57:55 PM
[ooc] well, i was meaning i drop the rock onto the ground (M11). Prolly should have stated that explicitely.

What's so awkward about the pillar? It's got a nice view and Boris has issues about being short. (i mean, he has flying boots and summons rock monsters 3 times his height. He's totally compensating for something.)[/ooc]

Post by: Darkxarth on November 01, 2006, 09:00:09 PM
[ooc]I just meant that you started out in the same spot as another creature, and now you're over a pillar.  If you move, remind me to put the pillar back in.

Elemental #1 turn, right?  Or does it take multiple rounds to activate fully?[/ooc]
Title: Arena Match: Orbis vs. Boris Stonebones
Post by: Captain Obvious on November 01, 2006, 09:04:00 PM
[ooc] i did all of my guys' turns at once. The elementals' moves are inside the spoiler block since you can't actually see where they are right now.
And, the elementals can act immediately. it counts as summon monster.[/ooc]

[ooc]Gotcha.  Don't forget to roll initiative for the second one.  Unless it uses the same as the first one.[/ooc]
[ic=Orbis (http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/view.php?id=5284) HP=124 AC=18]"Hiding on that pillar shall not help you!"  Orbis, though still slightly hesitant to attack an apparently magic-using Dwarf, draws his bow and fires off a series of arrows.[/ic]
[ooc]Oh, before I forget, again, Orbis assigns Boris as his Dodge opponent.

[ic=Boris AC 33, hp 234]
While most clatter off his armour, one takes Boris through the shoulder. He give a slight grunt, but it is more one of annoyance.  That the best you got? You only got me with one and it was a scratch. No wonder those other dwarves didn't want you. You're a disgrace." He rips the arrow out with his teeth, then sends a stream of axes at Orbis.[/ic]

[ic=Orbis (http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/view.php?id=5284) HP=79 AC=18]Boris' words don't make sense to Orbis, but his axes speak much more clearly.  His breastplate protects him from one, without even a dent, but the others find their marks on different parts of his body.  Wounded, but still kicking, Orbis lets fly another flurry of arrows.[/ic]

[ooc] Sorry. I should have said i still had to do the elementals. I did them together last turn cause it seemed easier since they all just moved. THere's some grappling to respond to.[/ooc]

[ooc]My bad.  I assumed they were still doing secretive things.

No damage, just holds him.
[edit] no, they aren't huge, they're large. I just don't like large as a descriptive word. It's neither as poetic nor epic. Does make it confusing when adjectives actually mean somethng though.[/ooc]

[ic=Boris AC29, hp234] Boris flies down and stares smugly at the struggling gladiator.
 Who do you think you are waltzing in here and refusing to use magic? This entire arena is about magic. Who do you think you're kidding. That'll getcha killed so fast. I used the rocks to teach you a lesson. THis game isn't about skill. It's about magic and dirty tricks. There's no honour here, just get away with whatever you can. Now I'm gonna patch you up, and the rocks is gonna letcha go. Then, we're gonna have us a real fight. Just the two of us. Hey, i might even find i enjoy fighting fair again. It's been a long time since i last did it. You can even take the first shot.
Boris pours a potion down Orbis' throat then steps back and pulls out his weapons.  "Let's do it!" he yells, getting all worked up, and the elementals release Orbis and step back.[/ic]

[ic=[link=]Orbis[/link] HP=78 AC=24]Orbis drops out from between the Elementals, dropping to his knees.  He stands slowly and looks at Boris, his eyes stern, "Listen to me now," his respect for this particular Dwarf nearly gone, "you are wrong.  Combat is about honor.  You use your strengths, I use mine.  Perhaps I must learn to adapt to this new world, but it is my choice.  If I choose to fight with or without magic, that is my choice.  You have mad yours, and I may look at mine again.  But, for now, since you have given me another chance at combat, I will accept it, I am not stupid.  I hope I teach you that fighting dirty is not the way to fight, even if you win, you have still lost."  With that, Orbis drops his bow, equips his shield, and draws his sword.

He advances on Boris, lashing out with his powerful weapon, attempting to strike down his Dwarven opponent.[/ic]

[ic=Orbis]Orbis looks down, and sees the blood pour from his insides.  He looks back up at Boris, "A good match, I die with honor."  With that, he collapses into the dust, still clutching his sword and shield.

As the dust clears, a large group of people walk out onto the field from behind one of the gates. One man steps forward from the group, and picks up Orbis' body, carrying it off the field, the others gather up his weapons, leaving quickly, before Boris has a chance to attack.[/ic]
