One of the dwarves began to scream, begging to be released from the prison, saying something or other about his family and not wanting to die. Almost effortlessly, a throwing knife was released from the jakari's gauntlet, landing squarely in his forehead. The dwarf slumped over in a pool of blood, the other dwarves gathered around him shocked, trying to shake his corpse into consciousness, one of them began to cry. Alexander acted as though nothing had happened.
Alexander– The Ascension is a three day tournament which commemorates the anniversary of our gods rise to the pantheon after his heroic feats in battle against insurmountable odds. We honor him by holding gladiatorial combat in his honor, those who perish will forever sit next to his throne, experiencing the pride and thrill of battle for all of eternity. If any of you survive, you will be inducted into are sect and learn the true potential buried deep inside of each of you. The first round of combat will begin in mere moments.
Suddenly almost a dozen warriors entered the room, many wearing fresh scars and tattered armor. While the group did not seem nearly as prolific as the trio that stood at the gates, all of them seemed to be ecstatic, prepared for the fight of their lives, the men all leaped into the large pit that took up most of the room. Alexander seemed to fall into a deep state of focus as force barriers enshrined the perimeter of the cavern, forming three tunnels. One led directly into the rooms pit like arena, with the two extending outside of the room.
Alexander– The first day of events consists of three separate exhibits, one will pit several of you alongside our ilk in an attempt to best the two champions before me. The second will take place in this very room, a team battle of grand proportions which serves to thin out the less hardy. The third match will place you and several of our own against my own magical abilities. A grand feast will be held for those who make it past the first day.
Alexander magically flung the gated door open, the adventurers had no choice but to follow on one of the preconstructed paths. The mage shouted out directives, leading the group to there destination.

"Now, I know I called you a prick earlier. That may have been rude of me. But I just said it because you're an elf. And you know, Elves are pricks. No offense or anything."

Guess playtime has to wait. Shame. Well come on Akane. We got people to kill.
Jougo pulls out a dagger from his void (Mage Dagger) and straps it around his waist, then he pulls out a novelty sized mallet with a wicked grin...yet he seems to wield quite easily.
**Eizen quickly flashes the peacekeeper badge his is… borrowing.. from Golan for this adventure, placing it back in the void as soon as he takes it out. He’s not sure what the range of the visual recording is, but he is pretty sure he snagged a snapshot of the dwarves if not their captors. Just doing his civic duty. He walks to the throne room, talking to Tuesday and Sling as he does so**
Eizen - If he is going solo against a large group he either has very strong defensive magic, area magic, summoning magic, or more likely all of the above. Keep other people between you and the summons, figure out how many spells he can cast at once, and constantly attack from all sides.
Well, I must say this is not exactly what I had in mind. She leans over to Golan and whispers in his ear.Should we bet on who goes cold first? and smiles. She was obviously being sarcastic and trying to lighten the mood.
On a more serious note, I think we should make a plan. We need to defeat these jack holes here and get back to the others, who I'm sure will do fine. Then once we all meet back up, come up with an escape plan. Do that plan, take what loot we can find and possibly burn the whole place down upon our exit. Now, anyone got any ideas on details, because that's all I got.
She then precedes to tie her hair into a bun only using her hair to keep it in place. She would need it out of the way after all and could not risk it getting cut during the impending battle.

Sling made sure his gun was properly loaded before slipping it back into its holster.
