                            Introduction

          A growing staple in the daily lives of Balianites is looking forward to arena events. The Aima Arena is the place that hosts just that. Various events where combatants go for glory, and where spectators go for entertainment.

          For VIPs and Staff, there is a closed gambling and meeting room for events and business. Non VIP or Staff can be invited in for a gambling event or meeting if a member so wishes.

 

The Events

          All events are based around having only up to 3 fights within that planned night; however, tournaments are also made where a type of match is chosen.

 

Cage Matches

• Cage matches are the most common in the arena, being two completely unarmed and unarmored competitors fight until a winner is decided by knockout or by the event Warden.

 

“Open” Matches

• Open matches are for competitors who wish to demonstrate their skills with weaponry. Open matches allow for the competitor to wear whatever armor they wish, along with carrying their choice of up to 2 melee weapons for the match. These matches are more dangerous, even with usually sharp weapons blunted.

  • Open Matches are won via gaining points dictated by the Warden as the match goes on. A competitor may also grapple and take out their opponent to win the match.

 

Jousts

• Jousts are matches for show where competitors are mounted on horseback with a lance. A competitor wins by dismounting their opponent.

 

Spoiler

All matches are generally CRP, but pvp can and will be common when it's easier to do so.

 

Titles

          The Arena offers Titles to its competitors through merit, and merit alone.  Either from being the victor of a tournament or through performance in normal matches, various titles can be made or taken from others. For combatants who wish to prove themselves to be the greatest, “The Fang” is the one stagnant and volatile title the arena offers. This title goes to a competitor who soars above the rest by having the best ratio of victories to losses in their matches.

 

Spoiler

Most titles will only come from CRP matches and tournaments

 

Staffing / VIPs

• Managers help hire staff, plan and hold events, and make deals with prospective VIPs.

• Announcers are needed during events to offer commentary and to introduce combatants

• Wardens are needed to mediate a match, and to be in charge of scoring and naming a victor when needed

• Medics are needed for cases where a combatant has been injured during a match.

• Bartenders are needed to run the bar during events to keep a hospitable environment for spectators

• Fighters are of course the main show, providing the men and women needed for matches

 

          Along with the staff, VIPs are guests who have helped the arena in some way. VIPs can range from someone who sponsors a fighter in a match up to someone who sponsors the arena itself to help keep it running. Contact Viktor var Ruthern or other staff members in Balian for more information. 

 

 

SIGNED,

Drako would read the missive after a fight in the arena, wiping sweat off his head “But I thought we don’t talk abo- well never mind” he chuckles placing it down to read at a later date

Viktor read over his own work after sending it out. "Oh. I forgot to add that Ologs are welcome to compete against other Ologs, and special types of matches can be arranged for such."
