Location

[Neartofar Road] RNUM: 10498
The top of a massive limestone coliseum peeks above a dense forest of trees that marches off to the south. Large oaks and elms form a stately archway over a verdant **path** that leads deeper into the forest. A sturdy barricade sits off to the side of the path.
Obvious paths: northwest

Grand Ball

What would a bloody gore-filled festival be if without scrubbing down and dressing up when it's all over? Ball will be held from 9 pm eastern to 11 pm eastern on Sunday in Prime. (Time for Plat's is still pending)

Coliseum

A coliseum has been built in the festival grounds with four practice arenas and one main arena. In the arenas you can fight against each other. A maximum of two people can be in a specific arena at any one time. No spells over level 10 can be used. The cloak of shadows retribution effect will be disabled as well. No taking familiars, animal companions, demons, etc in with you. You have to fight on your own. If someone is already in an arena when you try to enter, you'll be told who is there. Each arena has a viewing room, so people can watch the fights and yell or heckle. If you die in the arena, medics are on-hand to move you to the infirmary and get you cleaned up; let it be noted that you will not lose deeds if you die. You will also be charged a small fee for being tended to by the medical staff. The only compensation you get for killing each other is bragging rights. Any fighting done in the arenas will be considered consensual.

Arena Guidelines - When you go through the portal into the arena, ALL outside spells are stripped, and then for native casters:

  • Retribution effect (only) of Cloak of Shadows (712) is stripped
  • Arcane Barrier (1720), Elemental Targeting (425), and Rapid Fire (515) are stripped

Inside the arena itself:

  • Most spells over level 10 are now allowed
  • Implosion (720), Elemental Targeting (425), Censure (316), Judgment (1630), Nature's Fury (635), Sleep (501), Flaming Aura (1706), Spirit Servant (240) are all blocked
  • Hiding is allowed
  • No demons, animal companions, or Singing Sword Song (1025)
  • No wands or embeds
  • No scrolls
