Salem

Salem is a wonderful place to trade and test your wits... but what if your brawn outmatches your brains? What if the only pilgrim prayers you yearn to hear are the pathetic begging of a man caught between the unforgiving dirt and your unyielding sabre? What's a man to do if he thirsts only for violence and kleos?

He signs up for Waspo's Bayside Brawl!

Now that there is a safe place to duel (I won't name where... but I'm sure you can find it), we can test our strength against other without the threat of death... only disgrace.

Here's how this works:
You put your name forward as a challenger. Any other unique player (not you against your alts) may challenge you. For each fight you win, you will receive a baseline of 10 points. The difference between the winner's blood and yellow bile will be either added or subtracted to your score. For example,

Matt (15 blood - 15 yellow bile) challenges Ryan (20 blood - 13 yellow bile). Matt has a 5 blood disadvantage, but a 2 yellow bile advantage; for a combined score of +3. Ryan has a score of -3. So if Matt wins, he would secure 10+3=13 points on the leaderboard. If Ryan wins, he would only gain 10-3=7 points.

"But Waspo, I like to show off - what about me?" the crowd cries!

There will be special points awarded for handicaps:

5 points for fighting bare handed
10 points for fighting nude

FAQ:
What about looting?
When you are knocked unconscious in the arena, your items may be looted. If you're worried about losing your gear, you can always fight nude (or with junk you're willing to lose)
Can I keep my biles a secret?
Yes. If you want to keep your yellow bile and blood levels a secret, I can put your name up as a challenger and match you to someone within 10 +/- points of your combined bile score. Your biles will be kept secret, but I will need to confirm them before the fight.

Gambling:
I will take wagers for or against each player. I will collect the money from the gamblers before each fight and distribute it to the winner. I will take a 10% commission, as a donation towards Waspo's Fund for Underprivileged Salemites.


The first heavyweight challenger (100+ biles) to score 500 points wins the grand prize of 500 silver!
The first middleweight challenger (75-100 biles) to score 500 points wins 250 silver!
The first lightweight challenger (<75 biles) to score 500 points wins 100 silver!

Its not an intellectual brawl. *****.

If I die in that arena I can't get killer or looted? How does it work?
Sorry for bothering but I'm new to this stuff

You cannot die, but you can get looted. I will leave it up to each pair of players to decide if they want to loot each other or not. If you're afraid for your gear, you can always elect to fight without any clothes.

Do I also lose proficiencies points? Might partecipate, sounds interesting

That I don't know. It might be a better question for the Gods to answer? I have, however, seen with my own eyes that a man is knocked unconscious, but there is no ability to kill them.

You shouldn't lose prof. but you should lose inspiration.

But can others loot my corpse?

I assume whoever is in the arena can loot your unconscious body. But I also assume spectators will respect the fight. (I could be wrong)

Well it seems that a murder passed through there today so it's not safe anymore.
