My amazingly brilliant story developed after learning the finer points of writing during thousands upon thousands of hours studying in the American Educational System:

Do you mean "Despite"?

And don't forget Abraham Lincoln tried to free the Indians from the Aliens in the French and Indian War!

Tone him down to +1. And he only can come in with one shield. Besides that i'd take him.

[Gentlefish]

Yay, my dual-wield was acceptable!

[TCM]

Yay, my dual-wield was acceptable!

Because his ability was explicitly about dual-wielding, so I let it slide.

Ah, yes. American self-deprecation. So funny if you ignore how true it often is.

Round 0: Introduction

The nine contestants step through their respective doors, and after getting used to the glare of the sun in the open arena, find that they are fighting in a circular dome much like the Roman gladiators. It gets even more Roman when they realize that besides themselves, there is nothing on the battlefield except typical sand. Around them are thousands of cheering spectators. The doors behind each of them lock tightly.

The omnipotent voice of the announcer rings out: "GOOD EVENING LADIES AND GENTLEMEN TO THE THIRTY-FOURTH ANNUAL ARENA GAMES!" The crowd cheers. "WHAT A LOVELY BUNCH OF CONTESTANTS WILLING TO RISK THEIR LIVES FOR A MONETARY FUND, TRUE CAPITALISTS! LET'S SEE HOW MUCH THEY WANT THOSE BILLS, BEGIN!"

A gong sounds the beginning of the games off.

Oh, I forgot to ask you guys something very important.

Do you want this game to have "Standard" damage or "Dynamic" damage?


Standard: Dice rolls are subtracted to calculate damage. Ex., 5 vs. 3 = 2 Damage, 4 vs. 3 = 1 Damage.

Dynamic: Each higher number is exponentially higher than the lower ones. Ex., 3 vs. 1 = 4 Damage, 5 Vs. 2 = 7 Damage. This mode is also very subjective based on your weapons, position, and other variables.
