Looking across the stream that bisects the arena floor, you see your opponents lining up and preparing to fight. On the far left is a large man wearing dented armor composed of overlapping scales and wielding a long polearm with a viciously-curved blade. Next to him is a slender young woman clad heavy robes of various shades of blue, with at least two waterskins strapped to her back. The next opponent is a tall man wearing a suit of black and maroon armor, who takes a strongly-rooted stance and thrusts his chin and shoulders toward you aggressively. Finally, you see a slight young man of almost boyish appearance who holds a short, curving sword in each hand.
