The judge and the healers waited patiently for the participants to officially declare themselves ready for the battle as they stood at the edge of the circle.
Aggron practically flies into the arena, his tail whipping behind him and nearly embedding itself in a wall as he turns to go through the entrance. He is quickly able to see that the tournament is indeed starting, because four circles have been set up--and one of them has his name on it.
Aggron slows down as he approaches his circle, since his opponent has obviously not arrived. He shoves himself upright, re-curving his tail and dusting off his hands. 'm Aggron. I think I need to check in here...?>
EDIT:
Aggron grinned. <Yes indeed.>
He began to gather his mana. A dark orb, strange-looking in the bright sunlight, began to orbit near his shoulder. Deftly, Aggron drew energy from the orb, sculpting it into a rotting goblin.
Aggron inclined his head. <Your move.>
'm not exactly your typical black mage,> Aggron replied dryly. He brought another dark orb into being, then gathered the energies around his hands. Under his touch, they solidified and hardened, beginning to shine.
<It's not just a physical difference,> Aggron replied. 've fought with another black mage before, and though our spells were similar, our minds were totally different.>
As the third orb settled into its orbit, Aggron began a different gesture. He gathered his mana in the palm of his hand, then channeled it downward. It split into multiple parts, eventually coalescing into a small pile of dismembered limbs.
Once that was done, Aggron used the more-familiar shaping technique to create a second rotten goblin.
The goblins dissolved back into the aether, but they released energy as they died. Aggron caught the energy as they dissipated. <You're just delaying the inevitable, you know.>
Aggron brought one of them back, then gave the blue mage his turn.

Aggron is surprised by the other mage's concession. <If you're sure....well, I'll see you later then.> Aggron holds out his hands, and the dark orbs, the pale orbs, the goblin, and the body parts dissolve into energy and return to him. Then Aggron looks towards the judge, making sure he's finished.
The judge seems startled by the sudden concession and walks over to Aggron where he paused for a moment. Given the nature of Aggron's... body the judge wasn't sure if he wanted to touch the creatures 'hand'. Instead the judge settled for extending his own hand over Aggron declaring him the victor.
OOC: Check in here when you're ready to fight.

EDIT:
"Dammit! I thought they would at least show me the way!"
He saw his opponent, and nodded greeting.
"Let's begin, shall we?"

You may want to check Aggron's character profile when talking to him; he's a little unusual. The link to it is in my signature.
"Another black mage..." he muttered.
He summoned up a small cloud of faeries, hovering near his shoulder and glowing with blue energy.

With the energy from the statue and a newly summoned orb, Aggron attempted to create a silvery orb.

"By my calculations, there is no way this can end in my favor. I will allow the tournament to continue. I concede."
Mallen gathered his energy into his body, and proceeded to leave the battlefield, without a single scratch.
