Sangre y Acero * Pit-fighting Arena *, GORK THE ORK VS CHALLENGER Options

[Simon Kerimov]

Beneath the dark streets of Tenochititlan lie the bloodiest pit-fighting dens in the Sixth World. Unaugmented metahumans rarely last long in the gore-stained arenas, and combatants often introduce new and unusual cyberweapons to surprise their enemies and titillate the crowd. The fighters who have survived longest collect a body of tricks and techniques known as Sangre y Acero – Blood and Steel.

LEAGUE RULES

• Almost none. Make whatever you want and as abuses become obvious, that tactic will be banned, and the user shamed.
• As a pit fight, guns are discouraged, but there are no rules against them other than the booing of the crowd.

ARENA DESCRIPTION

Since Sangre y Acero is in Aztlan, it is going to be fought inside of a ullamaliztli, one of the ball courts for the mesoamerican ballgame. The ullamaliztli were used for playing the ballgame, for wrestling, and for festivals and parties.

• Ullamaliztli have a length to width ratio of about 4:1, with smaller courts being about 16 by 4 meters with a 3 meter tall retaining wall.
• At each end of the court there is an end zone about two meters deep, so the whole field looks like a giant "I".
• Along the width of the court, there is the 4 meters of flat area that is the playing alley, and beyond that the sides are sloped up to the height of the 3 meter retaining wall at some angle depending on construction (there did not appear to be a rule on how steep to make it). Lets go with 4 meters on either side, sloping up to the 3 meter retaining wall, so the angle is about 37 degrees.
• At the end zones, the 3 meter retaining wall is vertical.
• In the middle of the playing alley, at the top of the slope are large stone rings that have a hole slightly larger than a metahuman head. These are the goals, and the size is not accidental.
• The playing alley is dirt or grass, and the walls are masonry (Object Resist of 2).
• Surrounding the court area are structures for spectators to sit in, raising the height of the court by another 2 meters. Those 2 meters are adorned with tzompantli, or skull racks (Object Resist of 1).

No, it is just a reminder that your init goes up by 2 because your reaction goes up by two. Check it out, all the infected have the same rea + int bonus listed under init.

[DrZaius]

Hah! Looks fun.

My fights were using my interpretation of boxing rules, so I imagine a pit fight would be more... interesting (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Nope. We just insult the winner if they have too much of a Karma lead.

[GORK d'ORK]

"IT'S GORK d'ORK! IT'S CULTURED!

"Who wants a piece of me? Do you? Yea, you, the scrawny little muy tai guy. Well? Come and get it! Bring your bravest gladiators!

"WHO WANTS A PIECE OF GORK?"

[GORK d'ORK]

WHAT'S THAT I HEAR? NO ONE THINKS THEY CAN TAKE ON GORK d'ORK?

GORK CAN UNDERSTAND THEIR PUNY FEARS, NO ONE HAS STEPPED INTO THE RING WITH GORK AND LIVED!

GORK WILL FIGHT, AND IF GORK LOSES, GORK WILL BE UNMASKED! GORK PUTS HIS MASK ON THE LINE!


WHO WILL UNMASK GORK THE ORK ?

[GORK d'ORK]

Gork stands in the sunken pit, flexing and posing for the bloodthirsty crowd. He is wearing nothing but his mask and a pair of shorts, and carries no weapons.

"Gork waits for one brave enough to fight him! Let there be blood!"

[Traul]

It's understandable that there are little candidates: who in their right mind would pick a fist fight with a ghoul? That's a fight you lose even if you win.

But I have managed to find 3 possible contenders who are not afraid of Infection. Let the freak fight begin!

The first brave warrior is... a pixie?! No, that is just wrong, that is twisted, that is... live on Horizon sports after advertisement (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Here is my humble contribution to the noble cause of having non touch-range spells banned from the pit.

"What is this? A little butterfly comes to fight GORK? GORK will not be bested by such a little bug-person! RARAAAAHAHAHA!"

Waits for Mad Hatter's initiative.

"And welcome back on Horizon Sports, first class channel for first class entertainment. First of all, let us remind you the (lack of) rules: a pit, 2 men, the last one standing at the count of ten wins.
- Can't a fighter surrender?
- The rules say they can, but they usually too high on combat drugs to remember.
- Can't the ref stop the fight?
- The rules say he can, but the last one who tried did not make out of the arena alive. But look, the fight has just started and the mad hatter seems to be going for first blood... or is he? He stays in his corner, but starts to glow strangely. There is magic going on, I can tell you! But what did you expect from those flying monsters?
- Magic? You mean that brain frying is allowed here?
- It's not forbidden. And the poor Gork is going to be sorry for that..."

Gork's mouth actually stops spouting arrogant noise for just a moment. His head jerks as the spell goes off, but he stays standing. He starts laughing through blood covered teeth and opens his mouth wide. His disgusting maggot tongue licks the blood off of his lip.

"Tinkerbell should run now. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORK!"

The blood covered ghoul screams his own name to the crowd and charges at the glowing pixie cowering in the sand.
