Gladiator Rules
[spoiler]Gladiators and the Crowd
A gladiatorial fight follows the normal rules for combat in the D&D game, with one exception: The presence of the crowd can inspire or demoralize a gladiator. Treat the crowd as a single NPC, and use its attitude toward each gladiator to track the morale bonus or penalty he receives. If the crowd is friendly toward a gladiator, that gladiator gets a +1 morale bonus on attack and damage rolls. If the crowd is helpful, the gladiator gets a +2 morale bonus on attack and damage rolls. An indifferent or unfriendly crowd confers no bonus or penalty, but a crowd that's hostile to a gladiator confers a -1 penalty on attack and damage rolls. Unless a particular gladiator is exceptionally well known, the crowd starts indifferent to both combatants. Each gladiator typically makes a Perform (weapon drill) check (see the section on skills near the end of Chapter 3) before the fight begins, using the check result in an attempt to influence the crowd (as described under Influencing NPC Attitudes on page 72 of the Player's Handbook). Once the fight begins, only certain actions change the crowd's attitude, as described in the table below. Note that the crowd's attitude toward each gladiator is tracked separately. It's possible for two inept gladiators to both be loathed by the spectators, and two veteran gladiators can both have the crowd on its feet cheering them on.

Table 4–4: Gladiator Crowd Reaction

Situation	Check	Consequence 1
Gladiator rolls natural 1 on attack roll	—	Attitude toward gladiator worsens
Gladiator confirms critical hit	—	Attitude toward gladiator improves
Successful feint in combat	Bluff vs. Sense Motive	2 Attitude toward opponent worsens
Successful demoralize opponent	Intimidate vs. level check	2 Attitude toward opponent worsens
Successful tumble through enemy square	DC 25 Tumble	Attitude toward you improves
Successful Perform (weapon drill) check	DC 20 Perform	Attitude toward you improves
Destroy opponent's weapon	See sunder rules	Attitude toward you improves
Trip opponent	See trip rules	Attitude toward you improves 3
Disarm opponent	See disarm rules	Attitude toward you improves 3
Pin an opponent	See grapple rules	Attitude toward you improves, attitude toward opponent worsens
Bull rush opponent 10 feet	4 See bull rush rules	Attitude toward you improves
Gladiator caught cheating	—	Attitude toward gladiator worsens by two steps

1 All attitude changes are one step (for example, indifferent to unfriendly) unless otherwise noted.
2 Special modifi ers apply to this check. See the appropriate skill description in the Player's Handbook.
3 If you are tripped or disarmed yourself in a failed attempt, the attitude toward you worsens.
4 If you fall prone during a failed attempt, the attitude toward you worsens.[/spoiler]

[info]Rolling Fortitude for Zultar by end of day.[/info]

[Mysticsage]

[okay][blockquote]Rolled 1d2 : 2, total 2[/blockquote]
however i believe that it only cycles once i've gotten everything so its only swift claws i have left

[/okay]

[Throndir]

[info]Ah, I see, I reread it again, I'll update it.[/info]

[Throndir]

[info]There's a mistake on the grid map. Jin has x3 run, not x4. So he should have went 60 ft. forward and not 80 ft. as what was done. I don't think much of anything changes as other charge distances are within expected range. Updated the map, with the anklet movement (10 ft.) as well.

Run

You are swift of foot.

Benefit: When running, you move five times your normal speed (if wearing medium, light, or no armor and carrying no more than a medium load) or four times your speed (if wearing heavy armor or carrying a heavy load). If you make a jump after a running start (see Acrobatics), you gain a +4 bonus on your Acrobatics check. While running, you retain your Dexterity bonus to your Armor Class.

Normal: You move four times your speed while running (if wearing medium, light, or no armor and carrying no more than a medium load) or three times your speed (if wearing heavy armor or carrying a heavy load), and you lose your Dexterity bonus to AC.[/info]

[info]Zultar's fort
[blockquote]Rolled 1d20+8 : 13 + 8, total 21[/blockquote][/info]

Hang in there Charles, this is getting pretty chaotic! Markus commented to himself as he started moving south towards Serena. Dropping his crossbow then drawing his rapier and whip-dagger, Markus finished, Looks like a change of strategy might be better suited for now!
[info]Markus spends a point of ki to activate Deadly Strike against Serena[/info]
[info]Markus changes his stance to Battle Dragon's Stance[/info]

[Throndir]

[info]Both actions above are Swift actions. Choose only one, and state the rest of your turn.[/info]

[Dan-e]

Good catch! Going with spending the ki point to activate Deadly Strike.

Markus will finish the turn with a charge attack using his rapier to Serena:
Hit:[blockquote]Rolled 1d20+13 : 9 + 13, total 22[/blockquote]
dmg:[blockquote]Rolled 4d6+6 : 2, 3, 5, 3 + 6, total 19[/blockquote]

"Odd..." the elf spoke aloud, whilst notching another arrow to his bow. "Just now, I had felt the passage of many days in the span of nary a one," he continued, to which his familiar responded quite simply:

"....You're getting old."

"By nary a day!" Lyolf immediately countered, as he pulled back the bow-string with a renewed vigor, bringing the tension, both figuratively and otherwise, to its absolute limits. Only after lining up a near-perfect shot, did he finally fire - and with great relish at that. He glared back at Uli, only to find the bird already done with its task, a rather raven-like imitation of a smug grin clear on its face. "Just who do you pick up after..?"

"I wonder."
