Some of you might know I ended an Arena and I found the experience so enjoyable, that I decided to start another one.

The basic idea is that there are two teams of three or four contestants and these teams have to fight their way through three different trials. The team that wins two out of three is declared Tristar champion. The three different trials will be:
- The standard man against man.
- A take and hold (inspired by the capture the "Take the fort" of Icepick, might get modified.)
- And a sports game, where you have to score in order to win. I'll work this one out.


As for the rules:
- I said before, I'm accepting 6-8 players.
- Point limit of 300 points
- No mounts of any kind
- No nominate one character item allowed
- No Chacters that take up more than one slot e.g. a Black Orc.
- Characters are unbreakable

For the rest, have fun and it is optional to add a little fluff. If there are any questions, just post them and I'll look into them. I'll wait with the story untill I have all the characters.

Kael the Furious (Forest Lord)

Fluff? I'll PM it...

Morien Fireheart (Elf Prince)- 125

M: 5
WS: 7
BS: 6
S: 4
T: 3
W: 3
I: 8
A: 4
Ld: 10

Hunter's Axe (Great Weapon) Morien's weapon of choice is a finely-crafted battle-axe that he has used ever since he first joined the ranks of the White Lions. He weilds this heavy axe to deadly effect, and his great strength makes this weapon all the more deadlier. Indeed, he has been known to strike with expert precision, cutting his foes in half with horrendous ease. Some whisper that he was, in fact, taught the proper use of an axe by Korhil, Captain of the White Lions. (+2 strength, strikes last)- 6 points

Tough As Nails (Armour of the Gods, Vambraces of Defence)- Morien is hardened by a lifetime of hunting, war, and bar-room brawls. He also has a fiery, defiant spirit, and will ignore wounds that would incapacitate any other Elf. Plus, it is rumoured that his lion-pelt cloak gives off some magical protection. (+1 Strength, 3+ armour save, 4+ Ward save, re-roll failed armour saves) – 90

Unshakeable (Pure of Heart)- Morien doesn’t scare easily – whether he is faced with hordes of enemies, a slavering ten-foot Bloodthirster or a door-to-door salesman, Morien will almost never run from a good fight. (Leadership 10) -Free


Total: 215 points (did I get this right?)

Physical Appearance: Morien is a tough, thickly-muscled Elf with long brown hair and a battle-scarred grim face. He wears the traditional white shirt and kilt of Chrace (and often silences chuckling onlookers with some very colourful words or a fist to the jaw), as well as a lion’s pelt over his shoulders. He has a very short temper, and speaks and behaves in a gruff, decidedly un-Elven manner that sometimes shocks Asur aristocracy.

Welcome both of you. Two down and four to go

Appearance: Kjarl is a larger then normall humans, his skinn is pale. His hair is as white as the moon, and his ayes as black as the night.
He weares a black armour decorated with a huge golden sun infront, and a helmet with the same sun only smaler. the blade he wields is as longer then him and is made from some kind of black metall...

Dwarf Lord Gunther Pleasureman - 275pts

Gunther had wanted to be a singer since he was a and young'un. He disgraced his family by shaving off his beard and leaving to live in a big city in an attempt to further his musical career. After years of long, hard work, Gunther was signed by a recording company, obviously run by a deaf man.

Stick with which to beat off obssesed women-
Gunther is a great talent *cough*bullsh*t*cough* and as a result is always surrounded by beautiful women *cough*cheap hookers*cough*. Every so often an obsessed fan *cough*Transvestite*cough*will stalk and assault Gunther, this ten-foot-pole is how he defends himself.
Hand Weapon with Rune of Cleaving (x2), Rune of Striking.

Out of Fashion Armour-
Gunther's curious and out of date fashion style is often enough to send even a grown man running in tears.
Gromril Armour and Shield with Rune of Stone, Rune of Resistance.

Ding Dong Song-
If his clothes and haircut don't scare his attackers away, his extremely crap song will
Talisman with Rune of Spite


Only some will understand this, I think Goblit is one of them.

lol, nice character XXXJaKZXXX :lol: .

Welcome both of you. That makes six. I'll wait a little more to see if there are two more people interested and then I'll start the Arena

Hilarious, JaKZ! :lol: :lol: :lol:

Are we doing challenges in this? I wanna fight/slap Gunther!

The Green Goblit :orc:

Har! We do challenges alright, after that we might do a 'take and hold' and then followed up by a game of rugby (rules are under construction).

It ain't called the Tristar Arena for nuffin' boy.

Gunther heard the words, prepare to fight. Slowly and quietly slinking back into the corner, it would be a tragedy for his good looks *cough* to go spoilt for the sake of proving the better fighter.

Gunther challenges no one for now.

Ah ah ah,you can't have 2 magic armours :rolleyes:

Helm of Many Eyes is an enchanted item, not armour.

indeed its a enchanted item... :D

(Looks back at rules, and notices that the points limit is, in fact, 300 points. Then looxks back and notices that Morien Fireheart is a mere 200 points)
D'OH!"
Hey Tsunami, can you give me some time to rework my character? Thanks.

Take all the time you need.

Because Swedishviking has not claimed his place amongst you, his reservation is cancelled so there is one free place. Also I am going away on holiday next week and will remain untill the 23rd. But you may offer challenges and make up the teams.

I wish you good luck and a nice vacation if you have one.

I enter Indelhill, prince of tor morani

high elf prince

M-WS-BS-S-T-W-I-A-LD
5--7---8---4-3-3-8-4--10

Armed with

halberd(+1 strength)

Vambraces of defence(4+ ward save, re roll armour saves)

armour of the gods (3+ armour save, +1 strength)

long bow (range 30, s3)

welcome, and that makes six. You may begin forming teams, and name them. You may also challenge members of the other team and when I come back from vacation, I'll get to it.

In the mean time, have a nice vacation and enjoy.

Um...since I really don't know anyone on this board, I guess I'll be left over or something for whoever don't got a team. As for challenges...feel free?

Kael, I would be honoured to team up with you or fight you :P so choose

Gunther notices one other with exceptional taste and style. Approaching him nervously like the coward he is, Gunther asks

Would you accept me as an Ally?

Gunther notices one other with exceptional taste and style. Approaching the high elven Prince Indelhill nervously like the coward he is, Gunther asks

Would you accept me as an Ally Mr Indelhill?

-Turning his head a bit, not used to associating with the other races of the world yet, he sized up the large Chaos Lord that offered either a partnership, or an enemy. His ears twitching slightly, he thought about it a moment...the best way to get close to his enemy would be to team up with him...for now.-

Yes, we shall face these challenges together.

-Standing tall, with not quite broad shoulders, and the rest of him shrouded by his cloak, Kael turned his head to look at Idenhill. His first target, and this challenge was not brought forth verbally, but more so in the look he gave the high elf prince.-

I've edited my character. Sorry it took so long.

The tension begins to mount as the utter silence reaches a period of 8 days. Gunther finds this very displeasing and begins to sing his awful song.

Are we starting already?

As soon as Gunthers introduction beat started booming, all the warriors clamped their hands firmly over their ears. The elves watched in disgusted interest as Gunthers no. 1 fan came running over, making the Pleasureman duck behind one of the elves.

"Thanks laddie. You saved my neck their." The Pleasureman spoke as his fan ran on. "I think we'd make a pretty good team."

The other warriors watched in amusement as Gunther attempted to learn the elf, Morien Fireheart, some dancing moves.

After some ten minutes, trumpets sounded and the great wooden doors opened, leading to the entry hall. Last to enter were Kael and Indehill, both staring daggers at each other.

"Greetings warriors. To win in this Arena, you must be the best out of three games. You will compete in teams, which have already been formed. Let the Tristar Arena begin!"

At a quick nod, a page scurried around the room handing out leaflets with the teams on them, and receiving a signature from Gunther in return. The leaflet read:

Next Match: Indelhill vs Kael the Furious

OOC: The rest of the matched, you have to challenge other people yourselves. The teamcaptains may change the name of their teams if they want (I strongly recommend ;) ). Something wouldn't work with the code, so it looks a bit funny, but Kael is team captain with the Galloping Goldfishes

Gunther takes one look at the leaflet and tears it i disgust.
"I now declare, our new name to be:

The Beautiful, Manly, Dancing Chick-Magnets

And you," pointing at Gitsnik "How dare you stand in front of someone like me with such terrible fashino sense!"

That is Gunther's way of challenging him to a fight.

"Your will be done master Dwarf."

And to be clear, as the code really went bad, here are the teams:

The Beautiful, Manly, Dancing Chick-Magnets
Dwarf Lord Gunther Pleasureman
Indelhill, prince of tor morani
Morien Fireheart

The Three Ninjas
Kael the Furious
Lord Kjarl
Gitsnik Bigarse

Morien, meanwhile, merely grumbled angrily to himself. Who exactly had voted to let that crazy Dwarf name them, anyway? True, Morien WAS a chick magnet, but he sure as hell did NOT dance! And he was NOT beautiful! Handsome, maybe, but beautiful?
Morien spat angrily on the ground, cursing the day he got stuck with this crazy Dwarf and this stuck-up decadent noble . . .

Umm...just curious but I just noticed this now, isn't Morien 10 points over the magic item limit? I see 110...but I could be wrong somehow...if the +2 str killing blow thing that costs 20 points (odd..) is not a magic item.

As far as a team name goes...I have no idea. o.O

Dynamic Duo and one?....lol

Um what about Team Kael =D

...Slapstick Swordsmen...?

Ok ok ok seriously...The Three Ninjas.

...and is this gonna get started anytime soon?

Isn't the point limit 300? As for the points cost of Swordmaster, there's the off chance I might have gotten it wrong. If anyone out there knows if I goofed up the points cost of Morien's equipment, please tell me.

It was my mistake sorry, I thought the swordmaster thing was a magic item type thing. I was corrected by my cousin. But it is 40 points, not 20.

Kael, you were right to question Morien.

Honours come out of your points allowance for magic items just like virtues. SO:

Swordmaster - 40pts
Armour of the Gods - 35pts
Vambraces of Defence - 55pts

TOTAL=130pts

Three Ninjas it is.

I'm going to PM Goblit cause I have this feeling that he forgot about this post, he will however fight Gunther. And as for Morien, please edit your character. And thank you Kael for pointing it out for me, I don't have the High Elf book anymore.

The arena starts tomorrow.

Sorry, my computer died so we had to get a new hard drive today, but I'm back baby!

The Green Goblit :orc:

PS Bring it on Gunther!

As Morien is illegal character, we shall move on to the next duel: Gunther vs Gitsnik



The two warriors were lead into the Arena. Sand convered the hard wooden floor, stained with countless fallen victims that must have met their end within these walls. A crowd greated the two fighters with a great cheer.

The two fighters stared at each other, scowling and swinging their weapons. As the two gladiators started warimg up, swinging their weapons through the air, the croud hushed, an eerie silence falling over the Arena. Only the soft cackling of the Orc's axe was heard throughout the Arena.

The tension seemed to mount, both contestants now staring daggers at each other. Both had finished warming up, and were circling each other, looking for a gap in each others defence.

All of a sudden Gunther dropped his axe, pointed one finger in the air and screamed; "TEENY WEENIE STRING BIKINY!!"

This outrageous statement totally broke Gitsnik's concentration and Gunther, seeing an opening, charged repeating his war-cry.

Hate-red fuelling his actions, Gunther struck the dumb-founded Orc with all his fury.

"I am a great singer, and you should've bought my single" he roared as he slammed his pole into his enemy. His almighty slam hurled the Orc five feet further. Panting the Dwarf, leaning on his pole, waited for his enemy to rise. But he did not.

Untill now the crowd has kept silence, but as the medics rushed up to Gitsnik, it started to dawn on them. It started as a rusttle but soon spread across the entire Arena, resounding on the walls.

"Gunther! Gunther! Gunther!"

The Dwarf bowed, and headed for the exit to start giving out autographs.


Stats: Gunther won initiative, hit Gitsnik 4 times out of 4 (due to hatred) and procede to wound thrice. Gitsnik then managed to fumble his save (6+ ain't very much but still...) Thus, Gitsnik was taken out before he even started!!

Next match will feature Morien (The Beautiful, Manly, Dancing Chick-Magnets) versus Kjarl (The Three Ninjas)

Hooray... :(

Grrr, this is what happens when you pick a stupid orc. If I'd had a gobbo...

The Green Goblit :orc:

Tsunami, it is "teenie weenie yellow pokadot bikini".
Also I thought gunther would go "Look a six pack"!

"Go Kjarl! Go Kjarl" A fair-skinned, black-haird person Shouted form the chairs around the arena. It was Kjarl's champion. Gavillian. "Go Kjarl! Go kjarl!"
