conversations.value: OMG PONIES: The crowd is in an uproar as the two contestants are brought into the arena and unshackled in their opposing corners. The gigantic gates behind each of them would usually close with a deafening din of metal and stone, but any sound the gates would make is drowned out by those seeking entertainment. Both of them knew to expect this, but actually experiencing it was something else entirely. As the two fighters prepare to defend their lives, Whalicus is the first of the blocks.  Some in the crowd cheer for their champion, but others hiss and boo, wanting to see him knocked off the throne as quickly as he took it.
  
   
  
  Whalicus, you're up! Failure to respond by 1/11/14 will result in holding your initiative. If you can't get up an IC post by then, just check in to let us know.

   Spoiler 
  Since the tail attack is a natural attack, you don't gain iterative attacks with it.  Even still, your first attack with it put down your opponent.
   
  
  
  Whalicus squeals the song of his people as his weapon is shattered by Golnamoth.  However, he's got more than his sword to fight for him.  He spins around, slapping Golnamoth upside the head with his tail.  The goliath's skull cracks as he lands on the stone floor, and the stony warrior slowly bleeds to death.
  
   Whalicus wins!
