Roughly hewn stairs descend their way down the volcano's inner caldera. Almost all of the residents of this city are reptilian in some way, if not outright draconic. In particular, kobolds swarm their way thought the "streets" between buildings. On regular occasions, shadows fall upon you from overhead, belaying presence of the true dragons who soar across the sky overhead.<br/><br/>The entrance to the Arena are several massive gates, carved into the stone. Across the impossibly large inner mountain, you see that the volcano changes from a slope to a sheer drop. The theatre of battle you seek must be carved into a nook in the massive drop on this side. It appears that the gates are differentiate between those who wish to seek their fortunes in battle, and those who wish to see the former die for their entertainment.<br/><br/>Heading to the competitor's gate, you see two human dragons barring the way. They are similar to the Abishai, but more noble and less malevolent.<br/><br/>(https://31.media.tumblr.com/edb26498028bc8c566b0715f5c85be1f/tumblr_inline_myfl90ayzD1r0zz7o.jpg)<br/><br/>"Ah, more fresh meat," Says one in a clipped tongue.  "I haven't seen you around here before... although I'd say you have the look of planers about you. Follow me, if you wish to test your fortunes and risk your lives!"<br/><br/>She about faces and leads you through the gate behind her. "Know that any rewards you receive are given by our spectators. If you wish to earn gold here, you must make the fight entertaining for your betters, otherwise you'll get nothing but your lives. Now if its an adrenaline rush you seek, you're in the right place," she chuckles, leading your through dark tunnels that stink of sweat and blood.<br/><br/>"Its a pity there are only three of you though, more would make for a better match... HEY, YOU! Tiefling! You came in here alone, right? You're with them now," she exclaims, jerking her thumb back at your group. "Solo matches are boring anyhow. Wait here and say hello. I'll be back in five. If you still want to fight then, we'll get you fighting."<br/><br/>
