There's one somewhere, back in the post where I entered. I'm too lazy to dig, but it's back there, should be pretty obvious. Alternately, just look in my flickr account, the full-body one's probably still first page.

I still fear the spatula the most... the things he can do with that one!

Round 1 - Match #7 - Ludwig vs. Killbert-Robby

{Net} Two physical masters in this match - on one side is Ludwig, the irate purple bunny with the crazy lobster claw and disposition to match. On the other side is Killbert-Robby, the drunkard with a pistol and lightsaber.

{ABOL} Where do we find these people?

{Net} We find them in an island landscape!

*Net presses some buttons in the control booth and the arena begins to flood with water until it's boggy and has only a few really dry spots*

1 - Ludwig leaps forward from a sandbar and reaches out with his deadly claw! It makes a horrific clank right where Killbert-Robby had been. Killbert staggers back, falls into the water, and takes this moment to relieve himself.

2- Ludwig leaps upwards and then drops straight towards Killbert again! Killbert rolls out of the way just in time for Ludwig's claw to embed itself into the sand. Killbert laughs and hiccups drunkenly, and pulls out a pistol. At point blank range, he fires at Ludwig, and entirely misses. The bullet careens off one of the audience protection screens.

3 - Killbert staggers around trying to reload his gun while Ludwig pulls his claw from the sand and snaps at him. Killbert gets the gun up and fires, but the bullet bounces harmlessly off Ludwig's vicious claw.

4 - Killbert drops his gun and pulls out his lightsaber. Just as he's about to attack Ludwig with it, Ludwig hits Killbert's other shoulder, wrenching his alcohol out of his hand! (4 damage) The alcohol hits the water and floats. Killbert screams in anger and lunges for the bottle, forgetting about his lightsaber which happily passes partway through Ludwig's left purple floppy ear for 8 damage!

5 - Ludwig howls like an upset bunny and lunges for Killbert, clamping his claw on Killbert's leg just as Killbert gets his bottle. The claw does 7 damage, and Killbert screams in pain!

6 - Killbert wrenches his leg free of Ludwig's claw when Ludwig tries to regrip it, and he lunges onto Ludwig, attacking him with a flurry of mostly useless attacks, like a drunken madman!

7 - Ludwig manages to hit Killbert in the nose for 1 damage with his bunny fist, while Killbert hits Ludwig for 2 damage in various beating attacks. One of which breaks his bottle.

8 - Killbert backs up, looking at his broken bottle aghast. Ludwig laughs nastily and shakily gets to his feet.

9 - Ludwig takes a swipe at Killbert's outstretched arm just as Killbert attacks with his lightsaber! Ludwig would have hit, but the Lightsaber cleanly cut through two of the "teeth" of Ludwig's claw (8 damage). Ludwig looks at his claw, then glowers at Killbert.

10 - Ludwig makes a final lunge at Killbert, but Killbert dodges critically, managing to land on top of Ludwig. He shoves Ludwig's purple bunny face into the water until Ludwig sags, exhausted. Killbert stops choking Ludwig and tries to catch his breath.

Winner: Killbert-Robby (due to exhaustion by Ludwig) - Killbert-Robby glows, is healed, gains a stat point, and manages to pick his way off the arena floor, stopping to get his gun.

Loser: Ludwig. The arena fills with slightly more water, and two very, hideously ugly ogresses dressed as mermaids swim into the arena. They make their way to Ludwig and, crumbling live faeries over him, manage to charm and heal him. The purple bunny, bemused but happy and enjoying the company greatly, is assisted off the field.

Go Robby!

Ogre-mermaids really shouldn't have charm spells, it's just not right.

Round #1 - Match #8 - Komiyan vs. Dracoking

** As the combatants prepare for battle, the water from the previous battle drains through the sands and out of the arena.**

{ABOL} Of interest in this battle is the fact that at this very moment in Darken, the world Komiyan hails from, Komiyan is actually doing battle with a dragon, right now. Go read it at http://www.darkencomic.com

{Net} Did she pay for that advertising?
{ABOL} *munching on a pizza* nuh-uh. *offers Net a slice*

** Komiyan and DracoKing enter the arena from the left side and take up positions near the center of the arena. An ogre in an ill-fitting referee shirt stands watch nearby. Both wield swords. **

{Net} Interestingly, while both are fighting with swords, Komiyan is wielding a weapon that changes shape, but still relies on his skill. DracoKing is wielding a sword that does damage via magic. So they are not both technically adept, although neither is weak against the other.

1 - DracoKing shouts and slashes his great sword towards Komiyan! Komiyan deflects the blow and gets in under DracoKing's guard, slashing for 10 damage!

2 - Komiyan sees a chance to end the battle immediately and lunges to put his sword in DracoKing's heart, but DracoKing makes a critically important dodge, and takes barely a cut (2 damage).

3 - Komiyan and DracoKing circle each other. "Lucky shot." DracoKing mutters. "Take him boss!" Komiyan's sword shouts helpfully.

{ABOL} It should be noted here that much like how the glass that shields the audience also allows them to see the unseen, our microphones have a passive telepathic component, which allows them to pick up active mental attacks and conversations. Komiyan's sword, however annoying, is only speaking to Komiyan.

4 - DracoKing makes a feint to Komiyan, who dodges. But the feint was only to let him swing his sword into the ground! The ground rumbles and spikes of stone erupt under Komiyan! Komiyan is torn horribly for 15 damage!

5 - Komiyan disengages himself from the spikes and holds his left side while cringing. DracoKing advances, not looking much healthier. Rusty Knight boos from the audience. "It's a great sword. Hit him with it you louse!" Audience members laugh.

6 - DracoKing attacks! Komiyan parries!

7 - Komiyan attacks, DracoKing dances away, then thrusts back, but Komiyan avoids his blade. In the audience, Linkara turns his back to the fight to order a hot dog.

8 - DracoKing makes one more lunge and catches Komiyan at a critical moment! Komiyan takes 9 damage and is knocked flat out, his sword bouncing away. The audience cheers excitedly! Linkara turns. "What'd I miss? Awww man!"

Winner: DracoKing. DracoKing glows, is healed, and gains a stat point.

Loser: Komiyan. The Ogre referee pats Komiyan's face down with a cold, wet sponge and Komiyan comes to. He helps Komiyan up and hands him back his sword.

Round 1 - Match 9 - ahaugen vs. Lola

{ABOL} For this battle, we will be changing the arena to offer a more level playing field...

Net enters several commands while chuckling. There is a loud *THUMP* noise that makes the audience particularly anxious. Then, the sands empty from the arena into tens of thousands of small holes.

The arena floor then begins to flip, rotating on hidden axles, revealing briefly that each floor panel is one of several on a spindle. The panels lock into place, and the floor is now marble.

1 - Lola enters from the left of the arena, amidst several heckles and wolf calls. She whips around and stares at the would-be jokesters. Two collapse in convulsions while a third withers under her gaze and flees the arena crying. The wolf whistles and hyena calls stop abruptly.

{ABOL} Uhm... isn't the glass supposed to protect against that?
{Net} Mind attacks can be tricky. Good thing the audience signed away their right to sue.

From the right end of the arena comes a rumbling noise. A pallet jack (similar to a fork lift) rolls onto the arena, driven by a clearly frustrated guy. A tape gun and a machine gun hang off pegs on the jack.

2 - Ahaugen guns the jack and runs straight towards Lola. Lola turns and flicks her hair, preparing to give the oncoming ahaugen a look that could kill.

3 - Ahaugen catches the full burst of Lola's stare, and his brain freezes. His eyes water up and he doubles over the steering wheel as if he'd been knifed. He takes a whopping 16 damage in a critical attack.

4 - Lola takes too long feeling satisfied with her stare to get out of the way of the oncoming pallet jack, which hooks her leg and pulls her under! She takes 10 damage from crushing treads!

5 - Lola holds her leg in pain while Ahaugen shakes off the effects of her penetrating stare.

6 - Ahaugen shifts the pallet jack into reverse and runs over Lola again, for 11 damage. The look in his eyes suggests that far from shaking off Lola's effect, it's driven him insane.

7 - Ahaugen shifts forward again, but Lola tumbles out of the way, and when ahaugen tries to turn the pallet jack sharply on the marble floor of the arena, it just slides sideways and grinds to a halt.

8 - Lola starts to direct her gaze at ahaugen again, and he screams something incoherent that in a coffee bar might be construed as bad poetry about life. He manages to get a good burst of gunfire into Lola, hitting her for 10 damage, before turning the gun on himself for 5 more.

Both die.

Seven ogres, dressed in judicial robes, each with an odd air of intelligence and superiority about them, walk onto the field.

{ABOL} Our first judge's call. As you may or may not be aware, it is entirely possible for both combatants to kill each other simultaneously.

{Net} In these cases, the judges determine the winner based on many things including fatigue, damage caused, number of attacks, critical successes and dodges, and other data gained during the battle.

The judges confer, then walk off the field.

Winner: ahaugen! Ahaugen glows, is healed, and with the assistance of several ogres, hauls his stalled out pallet jack off the field.

Loser: Lola. A purely randomly selected audience member, who happens to be wearing rusty armor, is dragged onto the field by two ogre priests dressed in bloodied but fine clothing.

The ogres slit his throat, cut out his organs, and perform a ritual to their dark goddess. There's a peal of thunder and Lola is healed. She heads off the arena accompanied by the priests.

An ogre janitor picks up Rusty Knight's remains, dumps them into a milkshake machine, and churns out a healed Rusty Knight. The audience as one, drops their milkshakes to the floor of the stands.
