    Never really thought about how many specifically. As many as the plot demands there to be until a specific number becomes relevant, in which case I'll probably choose an arbitrary number based on the scale of the arena.

    New arrivals get stuck wherever there's room. Our characters got lucky and ended up with a pretty decent first experience. Most aren't so lucky. It's not expected for new entrees to live long at all, especially if they go solo. If you go in as a team, it is expected you'll live longer, so you get a nicer start. But generally you are treated as disposable trash and just stuck wherever is most convenient at the time.

    Simple enough. Last question, for now.

    Everyone in Gidian's team was sent to the same block, is that common practice, if there is enough room, or was that part of their "lucky streak?"

    @CapObvious if you could give me a run down on what you plan for Maere to do about Gidian I could advance things further in my post. Could even come up with something to add more depth to it if you're up for inflating the length for the sake of a bit of character development, but it's up to you.

    @fellowknight Did Baroth even give us a name? I can't remember, and I think I actually use his name in my post somewhere but I can't find where now that I lost it. Also, we're going to need to coordinate a bit with our fight against the Boar and Spider. @CapObvious you too. It's going to take us working as a team to take them down, and we're gonna have to fight smart and dirty. I had Skadi do some analysis in her post, which I could post now, but it would only get as far as us regrouping and the remaining enemies moving towards us.

    I envision us pulling some Avengers level awesomeness at least a few times, just for fun :p

    Rextoret, don't take this the wrong way, but I swear I've seen your face before. Super creepy, I know. Sorry. Oh, I'm working on the next post for the group with Kiyoshi, Solenne, and Rolard. Should be up soon.

    YESSSSS! I simply have to see Baroth launch Gidian off his shield into the Spider/Boar! Or some of Maere's magic richochet off his shield and into the Boar/Spider, Like in the Avengers. I just realize i'm a gigantic geek.

    Baroth deployed the alias of Hodlin Graves to Nathatn, but only the two were present. Maybe assume he relayed it before he disappeared? I believe Dolun was also stalking about at this time.

    It's whatever. We can reveal your name more naturally during the fight, because Skadi doesn't know it and Gidian forgot the alias you have him (if I'm remembering correctly).

    If I can be straight with you, I haven't the slightest idea what I'm going to have Maere do for Gidian. I've been mulling it over since you brought it up the first time, and I can't for the life of me think of anything worthwhile enough for a post, whether it's just a part in yours or a whole post of my own. I feel like I'm letting you down here, but I just don't know what to do. :/

    One step at a time is how you conquer mountains, Cap. For starters, Maere should probably heal Gidian, and if that's the case, then to what degree can she heal him, and what exactly of your own imagination can you add to the procedure to spice it up? Is healing something like this going to be as simple as waving your glowing hands around until it's done, is there going to be some more traditional medical knowledge involved? Is there more going on when you heal someone then just waving your glowing hands around? Do you have to probe the condition of the patient through some sort of quasi telepathic powers or something? Feel em out with magic?

    And once we get the ball rolling on that we can worry about the rest. If you are willing to take extra time and do extra work writing, it could even be an interesting moment for character development for Maere, and even for Gidian. There could even be *gasp* character interaction! :p

    Somehow, you spelling it out like that, gave me a few small ideas that I may be able to snow ball if I think on it for a bit. If you wouldn't mind, I would appreciate if you would give me a list of his injuries, the ones that would be the ones she would need to focus on, and I can have her work on those in a post, and possibly set up some sort of interaction that way. Unless you want it to be one big long post, then we'd obviously need a bit more time for that. :p

    He's basically one giant bruise, his right arm is very messed up (especially with the bent armor), and it's dislocated. By this point he's also suffering a concussion as well as severe fatigue. His armor, remarkably, has mostly done its job. However some of his wounds the potion partially healed have "reopened" so to speak. That is, stuff like his rib cage and fractured bones didn't get to heal properly.

    Shall I go ahead and post Skadi's perspective up to where our characters have regrouped and the enemy is closing in, or would you guys rather I waited for more? It's pretty rushed, but by now I've given up on my posts meeting professional standards, and I'm just gonna accept that I'm imperfect.

    I'm back, bitches
    I would like to hear Skadi's perspective but since I'm not personally involved in that particular fight I don't think my opinion counts for very much. :p
