prettier when he snarls, performing a somewhat clumsy spinning kick to force you back a step and give himself the room to get back on his feet.<br/><br/><strong>"You ain't exackly Dejah Thoris,"</strong>he answers, his words tense and terse, his blade probing at your defenses...he's hurt, wary, unwilling to push right this instant, but he only has eyes for you, ignoring the din of combat and focusing.  That's probably something that's kept him alive around here.<br/><br/><strong>Zuri</strong>, the red-skinned man shows no understanding of your words, and pointing to the sand only earns you a rather obscene gesture and leering grin in return.  Then he makes a wild rush and lunge, his sword coming way too close for comfort!  Apparently this is<em>not</em>the Olympics...<br/><br/><strong>Kain</strong>, this guy isn't Benson.  This guy isn't even that snot-nosed FNG who got thrown in as a repple right before that utter golf foxtrot you had to fight forward to escape.  And yeah, maybe for the average civvie in the street, he'd be a threat.  So no, he's not world class kick ass, not by a long shot.  But then these guys, while they practice?  Are here to provide a good show to some fat-assed rear-echelon types.  Your boot connects, and you're pretty sure his reply is vulgar.  If he were a complete scrub, you'd probably already have him down.  But he's good enough to keep a hold of his blade and gutsy enough to keep swinging...<br/><br/><strong>Lei Hung</strong>, your opponent was not expecting your shift in tactics and goes first to both knees and then, with a keening wail, faceplants into the crimson dust of the arena floor, all the fight driven out of him by your blows.  This leaves you with plenty of opportunity to survey the field and decide which of your many peculiar foreign devil targets should meet your spear next.  (If only you could remember which Hell spawned mantis-headed four-armed demons.  Maybe this is India?  Or Kansas.)<br/><br/><strong>Mila</strong>, today is not your day.  you do manage to get out of the way of the massive Green's weapon, and you certainly don't get hurt while you attempt your most desperate maneuver, but your wild attempts to bring the business end of your weapon into contact with his flesh are more forlorn hope than success.  If anything, you're convincing him that you're less of a threat than any of the others.  Fortunately, he seems a bit distracted by events elsewhere.  Like that other Green who has just fallen facedown on the sand, clutching himself and keening in agony.<br/><br/><strong>Tiana</strong>, you have every reason to be embarrassed.  At this rate, your baby sister would probably claim to be better at rescuing herself than you're proving!  But even so, you have a tall, Green savior to thank for this...<br/><br/><strong>"Zodangan?  You egg-damp fool of a Thark!  You face Ven Darus of Dusar!  The skulls of your pathetic Green pathans decorate my lord's mantle!"</strong><br/><br/>So saying, the Dusari leaps to the attack, blade flashing as he closes on the younger warrior.  Too swiftly, his blade draws blood and he presses the bold Thark back.  Which means he is paying you no attention at all.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Stat Blocks</div><div
