~~ Arena 1 ~~ Team 1 - Black Destructors vs. Team 16 - Maelstrom Pirates Drake @Valonox (DW Blackshield Apothecary) vs. Alion (Traitor Raven Guard; 2 Lightning Claws) Inarius @matt23 (Lords of Destruction Chaplain) vs. Thanatos (Traitor Blood Angel; 1H Chainsword Rampage & Bolt Pistol) Together the Deathwatch Apothecary and Lords of Destruction Chaplain they charged the former Blood Angel who shot with his Bolt Pistol towards the Apothecary. The duo attempted to smash him right into pulp. It worked quite well as the Infernus Pistol of Drake may have missed, but his Power Maul connected with a shoulder of Thanatos after said traitor ram his chainsword into the Apothecary's waist. This opened a weakness and allowed a devastating blow of Inarius with his Crozius Arcanum. (OOC: You may crack his skull kind of open or remove a limb, @matt23 ) Alion the Raven Guard seized the opportunity as he came out of nowhere, ramming both of his Lightning Claws right into the back of Inarius. However only one got deep enough through the armor to draw a bit of blood. Infernus Pistol (1H) & Power Maul (1H) vs. Thanatos => 2 hits => 6 HP left Crozius (1H) vs. Thanatos => 2 hits + 1 crit. hit (5 dmg) => 1 HP left 2 x 1H Lightning Claws vs. Inarius => 3 hits => 5 HP left 1H Chainsword Rampage & Bolt Pistol vs. Drake => 2 hits => 6 HP left ~~ Arena 2 ~~ Team 2 - Captives of Irony vs. Team 15 - Wild Predators Porthos @Avenging-Angel (Raven Guard Assault Marine) vs. Wu'uf (Kroot Hunter, Hunting Rifle) Urtus Velodonus @Uriel1339 (Emperor's Children Slaanesh Sorcerer) vs. 'Ssshakti' (Sslyth, 2 x 1H Power Blade) "A Raven Guard, must have been caught in the shadows he attempted to dwell in! No matter, let us bring this combat to a swift end and leave, shall we?" The Emperor's Child simply said as he casually approached the Sslyth, swinging his staff around in the air as the snake-like creature started to close in. The combat skyrocketed quite literally as Porthos took off into the sky and send a barrage of deadly bolts upon the Kroot who in wonder, or pursue looked up to the Raven Guard, only to receive several holes into his body, leaving him quite wrecked. In anger it rose it's rifle and shot back at Porthos, hitting him with a solid slug shell right in the chest, stopping him mid-air and forcing him to come down rather violently. OOC: You may remove any limb but the head of the Kroot in your next post that describes how/where you damaged. The Sorcerer at the Astartes' side charged the snake-beast, blocking the blades with a horizontal block with the shaft of the force weapon, before slamming his helmet right into the creature, causing to stumble back before bringing the staff around sideways, making the creature yelp in pain. However one of the blades stabbed right beneath his shoulder pauldron and drew blood. 2 x Bolt Pistols vs. Kroot => 2 crits. (6 dmg) => 2 HP left Hunting Rifle (2H) vs. Porthos => 1 hit (2dmg) => 6 HP left 2H Force Staff vs. Sslyth => 1 hit, 1 crit. hit (6 dmg) => 2 HP left 2 x 1H Power Blade vs. Urtus => 2 hits (2 dmg) => 6 HP left ~~ Arena 3 ~~ Team 3 - A Song of Plasma & Fire vs. Team 14 - Dragons of the Void Theta-Xi 4 @Maleth (Skitarii Ranger) vs. 'Manthis' (Eldar Corsair, 2 x Power Fencing Blade) Temvero Va'Thun @BadDo9 (Salamander Assault) vs. 'Ruin' (Black Dragon, 2 x Black Dragon Claws) The Machine Spirit of Theta-Xi's weapon was apparently very upset. It only got one single shot out before it made a very angry noise before detonating. (OOC: You may choose which hand you are losing) at least the Black Dragon who dared to attack first had now a bright, glowing wound in the center of his chest. Attempting to bring down a claw of his on the Machine-Worshipper, the Salamander stepped into place. His armor absorbed most of the claws, but still the Power Armor was not enough. Ironically, the Black Dragon got even a bit stuck, allowing the flaming sword of Temvero to come and stab in the weakened, crazed Astartes. (OOC: You may choose 1 organ you damage/destroy) Then the Eldar Corsair with his fancy swords came around to take on Temvero. However, the Black Dragon was pushed his way and the Eldar was forced to leap over his 'ally', only to be met right with the flat side of the giant Power Sword against his head, forcing him to retreat for a moment as the world got a little twisting for the Corsair. 2H Plasma Caliver vs. Ruin => 1 hit (2 dmg), 2 crit. fails => 6 HP left Crit. Fails = Caliver exploded => Theta-Xi has 7HP left 2 x Black Dragon Claws vs. Temvero => 2 hits => 6 HP left 2H 'Flame' Sword vs. Ruin =>2 hits (4 dmg) => 2 HP left Manthis vs. Temvero => 1 crit. fail, 0 hits => Temvero counters (-2 HP) => Manthis has 6 HP left ~~ Arena 4 ~~ Team 4 - Day & Night vs. Team 13 - Moonblades Suuri Vinnia @BadDo9 (Heavenly Blade Aspect Warrior) vs. Shin Du'un (Ronin; 2H Power Katana) Yasmilina @Avenging-Angel (Dark Eldar Wych) vs. Ruhemir (Slicing Orb of Zandros; Ringblade) The Craftworlder and Comorrite opened the fight as the weapon of Suuri came to life and caused a flesh wound in the Ronin, having evaded worse of the shot as he now charged her. Yasmilina appeared to have caught the Orb of Zandros in surprise. Having drawn quite a lot of blood. The Ronin having reached surprisingly fast melee range sliced his blade at the Heavenly Blade, but could only drench the tip of his blade in blood in his strike. Ruhemir, the raided Craftworlder recovered from the assault and attack-danced the Wych, however was not capable of quite outwitting her as even during his own attack she managed to hit another blow at him. Perhaps distracted by her exposed body... Celestial Spear (2H) vs. Shin Du'un => 1 hit (2 dmg) => 6 HP left Power Katana (2H) vs. Suuri => 1 hit (2 dmg) => 6 HP left 2 x Razorflail (1H) vs. Ruhemir => 4 hits =>4 HP left Ringblade (2H) vs. Yasmilina => 1 hit (2 dmg), 1 crit. fail => 6 HP left Crit Fail. = Counter (1 dmg) => Ruhemir 3 HP left ~~ Arena 5 ~~ Team 5 - Fists of Pain vs. Team 12 - Library Vultures Invictus Kel @lord-watchman (Blood Watchmen Swordsman) vs. Anthilla (Blood Raven Librarian; 1H Force Sword + Bolt Pistol) Slagface BluddSpillah @GobMaw_HellSmasha (Ork Meganob) vs. Nihan (Thousand Sons Sorcerer; 2H Force Staff) The Psykers charged their mighty spell, but the Ork was too fast in an attack, having him expected to charge in melee not just shoot at them! His aim was not very good, but enough to land two shots at the Thousand Son, which is quite impressive for an Ork on such long distance! Prematurely they had to stop their spell and casted a way too weak version, barely hurting the enemies, while the Blood Watchman managed to not just draw blood, but remove an entire limb of the Blood Raven... (OOC: You may elect which limb you remove). Shotty (1H) vs. Nihan => 2 hits => 6 HP left Katana & Maul (1H) vs. Anthilla => 2 hits, 1 crit hit (5 dmg) => 3 HP left Mighty Smite vs. Invictus & Slagface (6 attacks, 2H rule, damage equally split) => 1 hit (2 dmg) split => Invictus Kel 7HP left, Slagface BluddSpillah 7HP left ~~ Arena 6 ~~ Team 6 - The Beauty & The Beast vs. Team 11 - Purgatory Drach @Colapse (Dark Eldar Incubus) vs. Sister Hindenburg (Battle Sister; Flamer) Skud @GobMaw_HellSmasha (Ogryn) vs. Sister Lindenbach (Sister Dominion; Melta) With the Ogryn not moving at all, the Sisters seized the opportunity that was laid before them! The Melta-wielding Sister ignored the Dark Eldar as he was bathed in fire by Sister Hindenburg. The Melta charge was unleashed upon the Ogryn and burned his right upper arm, having evaded most of the shot by having stepped aside, believing that the Sister was charging something behind him. The Dark Eldar could not land a single hit as he had to jump aside or risk being burned alive. Perhaps with the Ogryn doing now something they would actually be able to win this?! "BUUUUUUURN TO THE GROUND!" The Sisters roared, getting the crowds around in quite a rush of excitement. Crazy enough that one of the spectators fell head-first into the arena. It was a relatively young Dark Eldar, female. Klaive (2H) vs. Lindenbach => 0 Hits Flamer (2H) vs. Drach => 2 hits (4 dmg) => 4 HP left Melta (2H) vs. Skud => 1 hit (2 dmg), 1 crit. fail (Jammed weapon) => 6 HP left ~~ Arena 7 ~~ Team 7 - Mortal Humans vs. Team 10 - Waagh Bros. Krauz @Uriel1339 (Lord Inquisitor) vs. Meganob Hamma'ed (2H Hammer) Loren Vel @lord-watchman (Tempestus Scion) vs. Meganob Stomp'ed (2H Hammer) Loren managed through her elite training several hits, but he weapon jammed when the Ork was just in front of her and a headshot-opportunity was open. It would take a moment to fix, but at least it was not broken. Perhaps best to leave it for later... (OOC: You can spend 1 whole turn fixing the gun if you like but you can't make any attacks in that time). The Orks hammer came down, but the Scion side-stepped away. "Do not let their size intimidate you, Scion! By the light of the Emperor and the might of my hammer, we shall strike them down and regain our freedom! TO VICTORY!" The Inquisitor roared as he held his hammer tight and ran straight forward against the Ork that stood in front of the Scion. He leaped high and swung the hammer with all of his might, hitting the cheek of the ugly greenskin and crushing him to the ground, knocking him even out for a few seconds. He landed behind the Ork and put the hammer relaxed on his shoulder. "Show me what strength is amongst your misbegotten kind! GET UP! SO I CAN SLAM YOU DOWN AGAIN!" Krauz roared. The other Ork arrived and slammed his head against the puny woman's, causing her to stumble backwards. "HA HA! YOU SO WEAK, RIGHT HAMMA'ED?!" The Ork said proud, only to see that his 'brother' was quite in trouble, just getting back to his feet after the human with the hammer slammed him down, apparently. 1H Pistol = vs. Hamma'ed => 3 hits, 1 crit. fail (Pistol Jammed) => 5 HP left 2H Thunderhammer vs. Hamma'ed =>1 hit, 1 crit. hit (6 dmg) => 2 HP left 2H Hammer vs. Krauz => 1 crit. hit & 1 crit. fail = 0 hits 2H Hammer vs. Loren => 1 hit (2 dmg) => 6 HP left ~~ Arena 8 ~~ Team 8 - Khaine's Bloody Hands vs. Team 10 - The Greater Good Orevara @Maleth (Phantom Tiger Aspect Warrior) vs. Shas'El Dur'in (Fire Warrior; Pulse Rifle) Zontaran-Kyalis @Uriel1339 (Blazing Sun of Yme-Loc Aspect Warrior) vs. Shas'La Pok (Pathfinder; Pulse Carbine) "Hey. Phantom Tiger. How about we let them believe that, help them up and let the audience kill them. Just saying." Zontaran whispered over to the fellow Craftworlder through the vox-gems in their armor. The Tau were calm and remained at the distance. "We will not know until we try! With our weapons combined we could perhaps break a wall into another arena, the more we can free, the higher our chances!" The same Tau yelled back again. The crowd started to boo at them, due to the lack of fighting.
Drake stomped on the Blood Angels head then turning to swing his Power Maul at the Raven Guard, and bring the Inferus Pistol to bare down of this Raven guards Legs to reduce his mobility. (1 Swing with Power Maul, + Attempt leg shot to injury or kill)
Temvero Va'Thun - Arena 3 < @Uriel1339 @Maleth > Temvero grunted in pain as the other Astartes drew a small amount of blood, instantly sealed by his Larraman's cells. Unfortunately it seemed that the Skitarii's weapon's spirit had been... quite discontent. Enough to destroy itself and take a hand with itself. The Salamander shook his head and slammed the flat of his blade against the leaping corsair before looking back at the Dragon who had neglected to answer his Vox. A Space Marine's physique is one of the most durable known. A large amount of redundancy and a rib plate to protect vital organs. However, one thing had always eluded him was what happens if the wound-sealing Larraman cells couldn't be created. So he took his blade and stabbed into the organ that creates such blood cells. With that organ destroyed (or damaged to where it wouldn't work nearly as well) he took his heavy boot and kicked the other off of his blade. He then took his stance near his ally and watched for incoming attacks. [Same deal as before. A 2-1 split towards the first attacking enemy. Ruin's Larraman Organ destroyed] Surri Vinnia - Arena 4 < @Uriel1339 @Avenging-Angel > Surri cursed her aim as she managed only a light wound on the Mon'Keigh warrior, and was then too slow to evade a shallow cut to her abdomen. She pushed back with her wings to bring some distance between the two of them, studying her opponent. He was obviously a quick, melee type. As her ally seemed to have the other Craftworlder under control, at the moment, she could keep her mind on a single opponent. There was only so much that she could do. She could lift into the air and try and pelt the warrior from the sky, or she could engage him on his own ground. Surri had been an ambitious Aspect Warrior, always competing for the attentions of her Exarch. Some would joke that she was attracted to him, which she would vehemently deny with a red face. But, no matter if she was or not, she had always disliked taking the easy roads. With one quick shot fired at the Ronin, she sped forward with her wings as the crossbow became a sword once again, beginning a swordsman's duel with the Mon'Keigh. [1 Ranged Strike, 2 Melee Strikes]
Archon's Lounge @Uriel1339 While most fights were moderately entertaining by now - especially that one with the two human super-mutants fighting this dreadful Sslyth and Bird-Man, if only for the irony of forcing these two different factions to cooperate - the bride noticed that the eighth arena was... less than active. Sheolhim, the bride, felt insulted at this. Sitting next to the Archon's throne, she spoke without looking at the man, but with pronounced aggravation. "Impressive games these are, when you cannot even make your slaves fight. Look at our bright kin, and at those little hooved men. Make them fight, if you are a host of any worth."
Arena 5- Slagface Slagface continued his trudging toward the two'ummies. He was hit with by something, but it wasn't but it didn't even stop his forward momentum. His 'ummie partner had the right idea it seemed. Maybe he wouldn't kill this one. At least not yet. He gave a hearty chuckle as he looked at the two opposing 'ummies. "Wuz dat suppose ta 'urt?!" he taunted, laughing as he closed the distance between the two them, getting the git into Choppin range, "I'll show ya 'ow ta reel'lee 'urt sumwun!" He then subjected the now up close 'ummie git to a flurry of Shotty rounds a shootin, and Power Klaws a rippin. Like a whirlwind of fury, he barraged the 'ummie with attack after attack. Slagface was an Ork in his element now. Up close and personal. Just how he liked it. He'll tear this git to shreds, and then he'll decide what do with his "partner." Right now though, it was time for an Ork to do what they do best. (All 2x1 H weapon attacks (Power Klaw and Shotty) Toward Nihan, allowing 1 reroll. If that's how that works. I just want to make sure I get a reroll somewhere) Arena 6- Skud Skud felt an intense amount of pain on his arm as his dumb looking expression shifted to one of pure malice. He looked at the lady that burned him. He didn't like this lady. This lady hurt him. Skud will show what happens when people hurt Skud. "Ow!" he bellowed, looking toward his arm and back toward the lady that hurt him,"you hurt Skud! Skud not like you! Skud Kill You!" He leveled his Rippah gun toward the mean lady and fired away. Shouting angrily the whole time. "You mean lady! Skud Kill! Skud Smash you! Skud kill you!" (All 2H Rippah Gun attacks going to the sister that hurt him)
Porthos Porthos watched a trio of bolts walk their way up the Kroot's right leg, blowing flesh and bone apart, before the creature fell to the arena floor. The Assault Marine paused though when a loud crack rang out, the left wing of the Aquila on his breastplate broken by the alien's projectile, and Porthos coughed blood onto the inside of his helmet as he crashed into the ground. Rising the Raven Guard glared at the Kroot, checking his bolt pistols for damage before opening fire. "Laugh it up fuzzball." [OOC: Bolt Pistols against Wu'uf] Yasmilina The Wych smirked as the Craftworlder bungled his attack, savouring the pain of her injuries. Craftworld eldar were so repressed, barely able to enjoy life, and Yasmilina used the sensuality possessed by all but the ugliest Wyches as she closed in on the Aspect Warrior, again using her flexible razorflails to strike from unexpected directions. [OOC: Razorflails against Ruhemir]
<Arena 6> Drach cursed as he was pushed back by the flamer weapon, his skin melting beneath the armor. Readjusting his advance, the Incubi warrior ran in a half circle around the sister carrying flamer, aiming one cut at her arms in order to disarm her and two cuts going for her chest and neck respectively. OOC attacking the sister with the flamer
Arena 5 Invuctus smiled beneath hus helm as he seperated the librarians left leg from his body as he then went for anouther round of attacks (5 hits with 1 reroll) Arena 7 "Yes lord inquisitor" as she replied she moved her sword in responce to the pistol jaming and hacked at the meganob (5 hits with the sword)
<Theta-Xi 4> As Plasma Caliver detonated and took his left hand along with itself, Theta-Xi screeched his anger which was more directed to the loss of the holy device by his failure to appease the Machine Spirit rather than the issue of his own missing limb. Still this turn of events forced a recalculation of how he could contribute to the team's survival, and the Skitarii considered that at the very least taking one of the Eldar's weapons would help out. So he advanced upon the Xenos, using the stump of his left arm to try battering it while using his remaining hand to try grabbing one of the weapons and turning upon its wielder. <Orevara> "While that would work Blazing Sun, I don't think the audience would look too kindly on us making them do the dirty work for us. Still, it's worth a try." Orevara gave her whispered replied via her vox-gem before yelling at the Tau "Fine, we'll help!" So the Phantom Tiger dashed over to the Tau, ready to help them up into their effective death. And if the two Tau ended up being thrown back down into the Arena, well her sword and handweapon would then have to be used.
OOC: Just a small post to advance a little segment on, rest will come once I got all the posts and later tonight. Waiting for: @matt23 "Don't worry darling, they are just doing their propaganda idioism... Let me fix that however, the last thing I want is an upset bride on her day!" Nebelsaris made a theatrical bow, before approaching the control panel for Arena 8. "Mhhhh let's see.... Let's see let's see... No too much of instant death.... Too slow... Mhh.... Ah, yes, of course!" He grinned to himself and pulled the lever down. He took his place next to Sheolhim once more. "That will get them in the mood for killing each other." Arena 8 Next he grabbed the microphone and put the speakers on across the entire Arena. "Since our contestants in Arena 8 do not wish to fight one another to the bloody death, I introduce you to an artifact, more of a traditional... Motivator. The Orb of Annihilation! Once the timer reaches zero, all and every person in the arena, including viewers will die. Now here comes the fun part. The souls of the dead actually will be absorbed and then re-emitted into those that chose not to fight, thus imprisoning several hundred, if not thousands of souls within the bodies of four, leaving them for eternal torture as they simply did not want to entertain those who came here to watch these bloody games of Comorragh! Oh, oh! Better be done killing one another before it reaches zero!" In the center of the arena, out of the ground, a hole opened up and a massive black obelisk emit from it, holding an orb with a huge timer in the center of it, showing 120 seconds, starting already to countdown, just as the friendly host had announced. "I guess so much for that. Let's pulverize them, one at a time together." Zontaran-Kyalis with any doubt of fight washed away rose his mighty miniature-Starcannon, a bright light at it's end already charging as his target was aligned with his helmet's targeting systems, the Pathfinder of those blue-skinned pacifists. The Opponents however did not rise their rifles and instead grabbed their knives. "For the Greater Good." They whispered to one another as the looking ritualistic blades were unsheathed. Each of them put the blade to their necks to commit suicide, but just as the slash was supposed to come they spasmed, the neck-rings preventing suicide. Realizing there was no other option than to entertain the crowds, they rose their rifles reluctantly at the Eldar.
