<strong>Aramis:</strong>In the famous Thunderdome arena Aramis is guided to registry and there is informed only 12 will be selected all registered people to fight (as if they take all mages and casters it would last most of the year shuffle through them tournament style). The contestants are based on reputation, skill and personal power each one wields. Plus some other critteria likely.<br/><br/>It did not take long for Aramis get informed he is chosen to be contestant! He is guided to prep room where other casters (chosen ones anyway) are gathered. In the prep room hovers a permamently placed (and further enchanced) Spell Engine (https://dnd.arkalseif.info/spells/spell-compendium--86/spell-engine--4204/index.html), which restores all spend spell slots upon entering the room and gives casters ability swap on fly any spells prepared. Besides Aramis there are six other casters in the room, who glance towards him.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">A warlock</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://farm8.static.flickr.com/7431/26911409011_4e1057c86e_b.jpg)</div></div>,<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">A arcane warrior</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://i.imgur.com/APEh5SN.jpg)</div></div>,<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">A witch</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://i.pinimg.com/originals/5c/8f/da/5c8fda878e1b126b754e94c190442e98.jpg)</div></div>,<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">A mystic</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://i.pinimg.com/originals/9e/90/52/9e9052ab7d5b463ff57e45726a7265e0.jpg)</div></div>,<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">A psychic</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://i.pinimg.com/236x/32/58/0b/32580ba84fd95aafb9ace193d6de3869--fantasy-karakterek-fantasy-armor.jpg)</div></div>,<br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">A unassuming man who yet radiates power</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://images-wixmp-ed30a86b8c4ca887773594c2.wixmp.com/f/f554f115-6e3c-49a4-892f-c42a28163aa1/d49a22q-7ef93581-87f2-4db6-a114-85d49083a465.jpg?token=eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiJ9.eyJzdWIiOiJ1cm46YXBwOjdlMGQxODg5ODIyNjQzNzNhNWYwZDQxNWVhMGQyNmUwIiwiaXNzIjoidXJuOmFwcDo3ZTBkMTg4OTgyMjY0MzczYTVmMGQ0MTVlYTBkMjZlMCIsIm9iaiI6W1t7InBhdGgiOiJcL2ZcL2Y1NTRmMTE1LTZlM2MtNDlhNC04OTJmLWM0MmEyODE2M2FhMVwvZDQ5YTIycS03ZWY5MzU4MS04N2YyLTRkYjYtYTExNC04NWQ0OTA4M2E0NjUuanBnIn1dXSwiYXVkIjpbInVybjpzZXJ2aWNlOmZpbGUuZG93bmxvYWQiXX0.8ZA6d9WuABhqmHle4FO7P4cGbsPLxZAfclKpfm_do3E)</div></div><br/>(to identify any them, roll K:local to each one)<br/><br/><strong>Sasha:</strong>The goddess observes the dream battle Sasha has against her former bindings and connections to her former master, master who forged her powerful chains and she breaking free with power of love than lust. Albeit very carnal and lustful goddess, Qetesh acknowlegdes and recognizes power of love superior to lust and she teaches her disciples give utmost respect to it. Lust is easy evoke and satisfy, but evoke love asks much greater effort and love is bottomless well which is never full but can also provide unlimited power as well overcome personal trials and demons. Qetesh could had blocked the nightmares, but she let them haunt Sasha as she needs deal and face her inner fears, doubts and overall face realities of her past life before she can truly bond with new man wholehearted manner.<br/><br/>Qetesh, albeit in flesh, is projected on scene and she observes the preparations done by other goddess; goddess Ramasse II (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DCaO9rLV0AA4Sm-.jpg:large), who does not appear phantom like Qetesh but more real and flesh alike but she herself is also a illusion; a projection albeit more potent one and have kept constant residence in the city around the clock and thus know whom to talk, organize and arrange things. One point Ramasse II comes check the 'prize', looking at her she smiles and says; "She will make someone very, very happy in future."<br/><br/><strong>Delaiah:</strong>She and bodyguard remain silent as they watch the traffic on the city. Various games and street performances done and parades and men in golden armor. Bodyguard checks on the sun in sky from the window and then speaks; "Around hour more until lottery is done." Besides introduction those are first words from the man for handful hours now. Glancing on Delaiah's way as he informed her how much time she has to wait until she is handed off as a prize.<br/><br/><strong>Sir Aeldrick:</strong>The Slayer Guildhouse (https://i.pinimg.com/originals/59/48/1f/59481fa3758b441788b6ac948f43cbea.jpg) looked outside like warehouse, inside it was build like a tavern and it technically functioned as one albeit serving only guild members needs. Housing and other operations are done elsewhere. But this is the main building where leave requests or come receive jobs in the guild. Aeldrick drew some stares, but no one confronted him and as he scanned the crowd he spotted the animous dark crimson clothed man matching description what was given for Jaren Ballswick. As he takes seat the man speaks in hoarse voice; "Your late knight Aeldrick."<br/><br/>Once seaten and ordered drinks, Jaren starts inform Aeldrick; "I tracked the witch from the swamps which was her original home, she had sensed me coming and had fled from swamps to the city. In city she quickly hooked up with local infamous crew; Blacksky Brigade. She joined the crew and crew is hard to pin down but rumors tell they are coming to dock here tonight to purchase goods in warehouse district at midnight. Their base of operations is both the ship and the place where they store their dishonorably gained goods through piracy, murder and raiding or from contracts which most cases involve practicing illegal activity. Crew is not anyway lawful abiding people and they defend their own with violence if approached with crime charges. I ill advice you going alone face the crew as they are experienced killers and number in dozen."<br/><br/><strong>Maya:</strong>Maya is informed in theater that her goddess is attending in Thunderdome arena in part of organizing crew, once there goddess Ramasse II (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DCaO9rLV0AA4Sm-.jpg:large) smiles warmly to Maya and says to her; "Glad to see you decided choose present me in this competition! Albeit organizer and thus know some details, for fairness sake I cannot tell anything besides that the prize from this contest is quite prize indeed for any caster to acquire. You would need don on traditional Asgardian garb with my insignia on it, I assume it's not problem for you? Anyways once done dressing in prep room you can refresh all spells and replace any spells readied for other spells on fly."<br/><br/><strong>Dask:</strong>The lustful angel eagerly gets on task once told motive behind it! She giggles and says; "Yay, playmate! Slave sister whom have fun with! Wait a moment master....I divine the winner shortly." Then angel's lustful expression changes, becoming focused and enter sort of trance looking state. Staring empty space while eyes faintly glow in golden light she replies on the two questions presented by Dask; "The winning ticket will be held by a human wizard named Medah Blackfeather. Best way to get his winning ticket is battle him on magic competition held in Thunderdome arena, as lottery winner is announced during the match outside the arena and so Medah is unaware he has won until he checks ticket at end of the match. Swap tickets during match and none will be wiser of true victor."
