Abius sighed to themselves as the five other Rethans all headed off. What had originally meant to be a one on one training session with the new Rethan gladiator who was learning to be a sub for the main teams had turned into a full on lesson with not just Arkiir, but captain Gathin and … Read more

Abius grunted in annoyance as they stomped into the gladiator showers and bathrooms, having just finished a Thirteenth Night match and, yet again, they were accidentally covered in blood. While all the public bathrooms were unisex, with the toilets all having heavy dividers, since one normally had to get naked to have a shower, the … Read more

“We’ll be fine, don’t worry!” Kass was excited. Levik was nervous. Levik was also shapeshifted into the form of Timik, pretending to be the top Temthan house fighter. Waiting for them on the other side of the arena were Viktor the Vorrible, a Vrekan gladiator, and Vezon Taintmind, a new Lanex gladiator representing the Perpetual … Read more

Abius stared at the water ahead of them, really not looking forward to their upcoming battle. They felt like they were being punished somewhat, as Abius had never done a battle in the water against another gladiator before. But there Abius was, about to fight Lord Tromos, the former House Master, now the Raptor and … Read more

“So, you’re retiring completely?” Kass asked as she rolled over and eyed the beautiful Skyan lying next to her. “Yeah.” Psiksi’s answer was brief. He was distracted, mostly staring at the ceiling, lost in thought. He and Kass had decided to have a quick little date, mostly just ordering take away food and chilling out. … Read more

Timik felt off as he entered the Parthenon Arena. It was evening, the shadows were long and the sun was slowly setting. As always, Timik was armed with his great sword, Crown Breaker, and his standard little pistol. More and more matches were requiring ranged weapons now, which bothered Timik because his aim wasn’t the … Read more

The Dasoudi Arena wasn’t normally used for venator battles because it was very uneven and full of trees, but the trees were starting to get old and rotten, so it was decided to hold some large, destructive battles in order to celebrate the arena closing down so it could be rebuilt. Today’s battle featured a … Read more

“So you’re… leaving?” Levik stuttered a little. “You’re going somewhere else?” Psiksi nodded as everyone sat down at the table in a quiet Temthan restaurant. With Psiksi and Levik were Timik, Abius and Kass. Admittedly, everything was too small for Abius, but they seemed content to just sit on a spare stool rather than a … Read more

“Hey, Kass, how you-” Psiksi’s attempt to be seductive failed miserably as Psiksi’s lungs and throat decided to have a coughing fit before he could finish his sentence. While Psiksi hadn’t been working, he’d been hanging around the Great Arenas, chatting with his fellow Skyan fighters. He was supposed to be at home, resting, but … Read more

“Thank you for coming, you three. I appreciate the care and kindness…” Levik and Abius had never been to Psiksi’s home before and Timik had only visited a handful of times, but they were all surprised at how large Psiksi’s home was. Unlike most Skyans, Psiksi actually lived on the edge of Skipou (not too … Read more

Levik could have shapeshifted into a Skyavok or something, so he could more easily make his way around the Arksini hospital, the main hospital in Palaestra, but now he was a semi-famous gladiator, Levik had worked out that he could get away with a lot just by being cute and somewhat honest. Eksi, one of … Read more

“Ugh. I did it again.” Abius grunted as they wiped fake blood off their face. After years of not having Rethans in Thirteenth Night, Abius found themselves being a Big Bad on the regular. Originally, the Rethan arena house fighters, and Rethavok in general, were considered too tame and not particularly scary to do events … Read more

“Good morning, Lord Tromos, you wanted to talk to me about something?” Psiksi was a little annoyed. For reasons he wasn’t aware of, the only solo matches he’d been given beast-slaying matches as of late. Ever since the Sudden Darkness, Psiksi had been working as a substitute to the Ξ-Class Skyan teams of four, mostly … Read more
