However, a well stocked arena requires a lot of forethought and preperation to get enough gladiators. So I thought we could put together an "Arena" thread where people post their own gladatorial terrors to throw on hapless PCs. Some examples of what I'm talking about are in this retired archive: http://www.wizards.com/dnd/archive.asp?x=dnd/fc,3 This is the fight club, and has a lot of fleshed out NPCs that are easy to put in the arena. They combine Min/Maxing and story in a very fluid way, making something that both kicks butt and is interesting from a DM role-playing standpoint. Sadly, there are no more "Fight club" articles, but the idea is still good. Anybody want to take a stab at it? Any random thoughts or ideas?
