Okay so i want to put an arena in my campaign. It's more of a chance for competitive entertainment like football or something, not really for watching halfings get slaughtered by giants.
The setting is classic DnD with medium magic usage (not high but not low) kind of 5th century feel (about the same time the romans were around).
If anyone has done this before in a campaign and can offer points or even where i can find info about arenas that would be great.
I'm looking mostly for info on basic layout of the arena and services that would be needed (hospital maybe) and also any fighting rules. One rule i came up with is that competitors can't use dismiss spells against summoned creatures they are fighting, if they do they forfeight the battle.
thanks all..
