STARTING WEDNESDAY

Pillz

Scrokk hobbled into the room, looking suspicosly at the others. He paused for a moment, as if holding council with the voices in his head. Then walked slowly up to the skaven in charge of entrants and spoke "Master moulder Scrokk wishes to enter this fight-fight, with Remus, mighty beast-beast with-" Scrokk cut of sudenly, then started again, his tone sligtly changed "I enter-enter Remus, nondescript beast"

RandommaN: PM me your battleplan and I'll fight it out.

Pillz

Ratticq walks into the cavern, gesturing to two creatures in the shadows to follow him. A curious onlooker tries to see what those two are about, but as a shot is heared through the corridors, the creature drops dead on the floor as quick as he came... Out of the shadows, Rattlich steps with a flintlock held in his paw. Next to him stood a massive rat ogre.

Stepping towards the scribe, Ratticq writes down his name.

"Ratticq of clan Gnawkin signs in with Slicey Pitt, herded by Rattlich."

krabaw came in, carriyng a letter in his hand. He gave it to the gudge-rat.

Through the shadows crept Vilepaw, He had seen the foe beasts and knew his opponents, Vilepaw stalked up to the scribe and whispered, 'I enter Rattica to this contest'. With that he turned and left.

Out of the darkness, two red eyes follow the movements of Vilepaw. It has watched the vile Moulder as it scurried into the hall, entered the fight and left once more. Knowing its master would be very interested about this news, the creature merged with the darkness and left again.

sign me up!

me have nothing now-now. but me must regain the little honour i have left-left.

The receptionrat gave Worsneek an odd look. "Worsneek eh? Didn't ya' lose all of your creatures down in Skavemblight? Ah well-well. matters not. Just show up with-with a creature."

Pillz

The Preliminary rounds had begun. Simultaneously, all of the contestants spread throughout the city (conveneiently, the Ratfest was on break today) began their fights. Scrokk was in the arena closest to the head judge and announcer's tower. He followed his beast into the arena. Remus, his huge Ogre with full platemail. the crowd gasped at this "Ogre in Shining Armour." His opponent emerged right afterwards. A hideously warped spider with at least twelve legs skittered out and moved at a hellish speed toward Remus. remus had barely any time to react before Hellstrawn the Ratspider was upon him. Hallinken, his master, laughed as Remus attempted a counterattack. Two of the spider's legs deflected the strong attacks of the Ogre. Hellstrawn unleashed a fulrry of attacks against Remus, Remus wove out of all but one stroke, which was deflected off of his plate armour. The crowd cheered. Scrokk grinned as Remus unleashed his own even faster flurry of attacks.

The grin quickly fell off his face as Remus' scream echoed throug the arena. Scrokk had failed to notice that the legs were bladed. Frantic, Scrokk hacked at ghellsrawn, only to scream out in pain as Hallinken's lach struck Scrokk's face. The Moulder collapsed, forcing a hearty laugh from his opponent.

Barely conscious, his head swimming in pain, Scrokk looked up and blacked out just as Remus collapsed with four leg blades straight through his armour. Hallinken's merry laughter was the last thing he heard before he woke up in his lab with the dead or severely injured Remus beside him that evening.

Victor: Hallinken and Hellstrawn

OOC: Sorry RandommaN. that's the way the dice rolled. Hope you have better luck in the Brawl!

meanwhile, only two pens down, ratticq and his ogre Slicey it, in a break from Giant rat fighting, were fightning against a large burly Skaven kalled Jihil and his Warped Chaos Spawn. the spawn moved forward slowly. ratticq whipped Slicey pitt into action quickly, and ratticq and his Ogre slammed into Warpag the Spawn. Slicey made a forceful blow, attempting to drive one of his three blades on his three arms into the Chaos Spawn who, the commenttaor noted, probably had a decentralized nervous and circulatory system.

All of the impaling blows missed. Roaring, Warpag retaliated, goaded by his master befroe ratticq could strike. Slicey Pitt stumbled backwards as one of the Spawn's 4 huge arms slashed his throat. Black blood rushed out onto the arena floor, drawing gasps and cheers and the change of gambling and money in the crowd.

Ratticq struck out against Jihil, attempting to bring the Moulder down. No such luck. Jihil laughed and charged Ratticq, swinging a glowing green sowrd in deadly arcs that the denizen of Hell Pit had trouble sidestepping.

Pitt gave his opponent a hate-filled glare and, not under ratticq's control, charged forawrd again, right toawrds warpag's outstretched talons. The money in the crowd began changing faster as people changed their bets and waited, ignoring the vicious duel between the two Moulders.

Warpag's other arms all shot out to grab Slicey, but the mutilated Ogre leapt extraordinarily high in the air, elliciting yet more changing of bets. Warpag whireld in several directions, looking for his vanished opponent.

Slicey pitt soared up, and then gravity took its toll. the Ogre began to fall, blades pointing straight down. The crowd held it breath in anticipation... even the announcer had stopped talking and was watching intently.

Slicey pitt landed square on Warpag's back, all three blades driving into the Spawn's flesh. The Spawn began thrashing around, trying to shake the Ogre off, but to no avail. Slicey kept on stabbing and stabbing until the spawn collasped, and even aftr that, the furious Ogre kept on stabbing, slashing and hacking.

Ratticq saw the fight end out of the corner of his eye and leapt back from Jihil. In the reprieve, Jihil glanced at the monsters. Warpag had been reduced to a useless pile of flesh. jihil let out a cry and ran towards the now mute Slicey. taking a deep breath, ratticq leapt into the air after jihil, and landed on him in precisely the mnner slicey had on warpag. Jihil's spine cracked, and he was no more.

It was obvious who the winner was here.

Winner: Ratticq and Slicey Pitt

OOC: Slicey Pitt IS hurt, and pretty badly. Remmber that Skalm is being sold outside the doors for a mere 20 tokens here. A cheap price.

On the other side of the city, Krabaw and his Ogre-sized Black orc Kronk were faring very well. Extremely well, in fact.

Their opponent was a new Moulder named Hakim, obviously from Araby. His beast was simple, yet krabaw could see it's effectiveness: a Ratwolf loaded with poison glands and talons. it looked fast...

As the match started, Krabaw realized that it WAS fast, as it ran forward at a mind-numbing speed, leaving Hakim in the dust. The wolf leapt up and tried to slash out kronk's face. Krabaw winced as the claw slashhed across the orc's face. The wound didn't seem to be infected, though...

Krabaw lashed out with his whip, intent on injuring the Ratwolf. the whip fell short of its target, and Kronk was on his own until Krabaw got within whip range.

Of course, Krabaw should have realized that Kronk could take care of himself. The Orc, happy to be big, plucked up the wolf in a way that prevented the claws from reaching him (by the tail ;) ). the Orc giggled like a girl as he threw the wolf at Hakim. the Moulder barely had time to duck before the Ratwolf whizzed by him. As it was, the wolf's tail snapped Hakim across the face, flinging him backwards several feet. The wolf slammed into the wall, accompanied by an ugly crnching sound. The crowd cheered. An easy victory, thought Krabaw, watching the dazed hakim stand and walk over to his creation.

WINNER: Krabaw and Kronk

Pillz

Much of the audience was focused on Vilepaw and Rattica. Rattica was an amazing creature, a Giant rat ogre of immense proportions. Not as impressive as Vorqueek's Rat-Titans, but still amazingly huge.

It was possibly the shortest match in the arena. Vilepaw started the battle ready to put in the drug that put creations to sleep after tha battle. He was confident. Rightfully confident.

The rat ogre facing him never stood a chance, even with it's impressive 6 arms. Rattica raised its foot, and then dropped it. the resulting Squashing sound drove the crowd to loud laughter, and even more erupted when they realized that the Moulder had been crushed as well. Howling, Rattica began to jump up and down. Vilepaw laughed. Something caught in your foot?

Vilepaw threw the drugged spear, striking Rattica in the back. the Giant swayed, then toppled over backwards, forcing Vilepaw to run for safety. He rolled out of the way just as the resounding impact with the ground echoed through the city. Vilepaw winced and stood up, then set about to yanking the blades out of Rattica's foot.

WINNER: Thrask and Rattica

Pillz

worsneek was nervous. This fight would either bring him out of his financial situation or force him to flee to escape the tax collector's/ he gulped and offered up a prayer to the Horned Rat.

The match started. Worsneek jumped onto the back of his spawn and rode it out towards his opponent's gate, causing much laughter in the crowd.

Worsneek's Unnamed Spawn charged very swiftly at his opponent's Squig. Uh-oh. Squigs are not good...

The Squig's massive mouth opened and it roared. the fungus then leapt high in the air, it's moulder riding atop it. It fell towards the Spawn. Worsneek whipped the spawn and it ran away from the Squig's point of landing. The Squig landed harmlessly, and the spawn whirled around, charging the recovering Squig.

It never knew what hit him. The massive number of limbs on the spawn did their job well. It's horrendous motuh literally sucked up worsneek's opponent Ytrru, swallowing him alive. Nuerous scythe-shaped lims then swung down, splitting the Squig into several bloody parts. Another fast round. The preliminaries always were...

Winner: Worsneek and ???

*ponders*... Why does it always happen to me that my creatures get so badly hurt in the first round? :(

Ratticq strolls outside the Arena, off to buy skalm for 20 tokens, to ensure Slicey will be able to participate in the second round.

Vilepaw smirked at the fate of rattiqs pitiful creature, it had won but at what cost. He wandered over to the betting booth and placed a nice 15 warptoken pledge on Rattica to win for the next round, he was confident in its abilities.

yay :D..

Pillz

Is the 'Anything Goes!'-tournament affected by what happened during the Ratfest fights?

Yes. this shall be made clear. ~Mork

Apparently I can still join this.... Enter: Chit-Shiz

After the success of Sqree-Quol over in the Skavenblight, Drachau decided to give him a break and enter with his latest creation, Chit-Shiz, the rat ogre from hell.
"Gimme all you got you rat bastards!"

(sorry that was too tempting... and technically true. Skaven dont get married (I think) so technicall all of you are bastard children :P)

Oops. Sorry... my records were off a bit. You actually can't enter.... sorry about that. *mutters about organization* i don't even remember fighting this out.... wow.... weird.... ~Mork

gah, dead... damnit!

oh well, theres always the brawl.

oh and mork, get some new dice :P though truth be told, I doubt that remus could have stand up to some of those critters. I'd bet on Thrask and Rattica to win, if I had any money

*chuckles*... Who knows, perhaps we'll see someone taking a title of giant-killer? :P

well because randomman has no money i shall bet 20 of my own tokens on the chance of Thrask and Rattica winning

Thrask bows after his amazing escaping feat in zundap, he has escaped from zundap to rejoin this tourney forsaking his place in the tower match for now at least...

The Semifinals begun. Jilden had one the match before, and Krabaw and Vilepaw were up. The betting was hopelessly lopsided.

The gun went off, and rattica wasted no time in lefting off the ground on massive wings. Kronk craned his neck up to watch the Giant. Rattica fell down almost directly on top of Kronk. Roaring, the Giant smashed his arms down repeatedly. The orc's screams added to the melody floating from the center of the arena. Krabaw began whipping Rattica frantically, but to no avail.

As Vilepaw began to run toawrds the fight, kronk agined his grounding and began doging rattica's blows. Snarling, kronk slashed out with his Choppa. the blade cut open a gash in the Giant.

Unfortunately for the orc, Rattica ignored it. the Giant lifted his foo up high. Kronk pointed his Choppa upwards as The RatGiant's foot cam down on top of him. Blood spurted out from rattica's foot and from the broken body (and Choppa) of the Orc. Vilepaw thew his drugged javelin, and rattica fell over. The match was his.

OOC: Vilepaw wins.

Pillz

Vilepaw let out another smirk of victory, he started to patch up rattica before he went to collect the winnings from his wagers B)

Betting and victory cash for you added. ~Mork

The next round began....

hallinken and Hellstrawn immediately charged out of the arena doors towards worsneek and his Spawn. hellstrawn (the visious spider) leapt in the air with all of its bladed legs down, intent on a kill.

Worsneek whipped his beast to the side, and the spider hit the earth....

Hard. The blades were tyuck in the ground. The spider strained and pulled, but they woldn't budge.....

Worsneek grinned and whipped his beast around. the spwan knew its job.

Hallinken shrieked and jumped off his beast's back before the Spawn ripped into the helpless Hellstrawn.

A victory for Worsneek....

OOC: You lucky little Moulder you :P Cash added.

Pillz

OOC: Gees you guys.... talk about lucky :P

IC:

After the short length of Worsneek's round, the judges decided to immediately fight the next round. Ratticq and Uilad were roused and hustled to the arena. Uilad seemed sleepy, but raticq was wide awake...

The gun went off. Slicey and Ratticq charged in together. Uilad swayed from side to side groggily. His beast was no better. Some whispered of poison...

Slicey Pitt was almost there.... only a meter away...

then Uilad's beastv Gargaf sprang to life. A huge talon emerged from it's arm and slashed down. Slicey nimble doged it, but Ratticq was caught on the leg. he fell as Slicey thrust his blades into Uilad... all ratticq heard was gurgle and then a thud. he had won...

Suddenly, blinding pain filled the Moulder. He forced his eyes open and saw Uilad hacking at him. ratticq realized he was helpless, and offered a prayer to the Horned rat.

As if answering his prayer, slicey charged Uilad. Uilad shrieked before being flung clear across the arena. Good boy, thought Ratticq.

Uilad was a motionless lump on one side of the arena, and Ratticq slowly stood up, wincing at every jar. the crowd cheered as he finally got to his feet. A great victory...

OOC: Ratticq wins, but was heavily wounded. the wound should heal relatively soon though.... Spoils added.

NEXT ROUND:

Jilden v. Vilepaw
Worsneek v. Hallenhal
Dr. Schleinendorf v. Ratticq
Vorzing v. Balik

ooc:
@ unkie reg: you have to post it in the gambling thread

I was wondering wether you get spoils from all fights?..

Wow rattiq your creatures really do get torn up in teh pits dont they :P

Most.... Not always, though... :P

Pillz

Jilden and Vilepaw faced eachother. How would this match work out...?

The audience seemed to have an idea. Bets were called out as Rattica came into view. Jilden's Ogrey Furball was much less impressive.

The starting shot went off, and the match began. Jilden and his Thich-furred Ogre charged forward. Rattica lefted off the ground. the crowd got excited as the ratGiant Began to Fly....

Then suddenly rattica whirled around and landed on Vilepaw's foot. The Moulder collapsed, screaming in pain. Rattica bashed the helpless Moulder and he lay still, blood pouring out of his body. The crowd was silent. The crach of a whip echoed as Jilden brough his furball under control.

Rattica roared, and Jilden smiled. This would surely be his... he urged his beast on. Rattica, not paying attention to the beast, lowered its head to swallow the possibly dead Vilepaw.

A deadly mistake.

The furball leapt up and extended glowing green talons. Rattica payed no heed as they sank into his neck. The Giant roared and fell onto Vilepaw. Jilden smiled as the announcer announced the victor and a rat in the crowd whooped as he collected his winnings... The Giant was dead.

OOC: Ouch Vilepaw... That was horrible luck there. You are practically dead... all ribs broken, one arm and leg ripped clean off.... ouch.... that's all I can say.... All Gamblings subtracted.

Pillz

Worsneek looked at his opponent. He stayed behind his spawn. This opponent looked tough...

At the starting pistol, worsneek drove his spawn across to the heavily muscled Rat Ogre on the opposite side. Roaring, The spawn tore into his opponent. the crowd flinched as ligaments and tendons snapped. The Ogre shriekd as one of its muscles fell out of its arms, resulting in a burst of laughter from the crowd.

Angry, the Ogre lifted up his other two arms as high as possibly. The Spawn saw what was coming and prepared to dodge. Worsneek screamed something unintelligible as the limbs cam e crashing down onto his Spawn. The Spawn split in two.

One half fell to the ground, but the other half pressed its attack. Surprised by its opponent still living, the Ogre stared dumbly at it. The Spawn hacked at the Ogre, ripping aprt another muscle. Shaken out of its stupor, the Ogre swiped at the Spawn with his last claw. The spawn flew a good three meters before hitting the Arena floor, lifeless.

A victory for Hallenhal.

OOC: Wow... you guys obviously didn't make your sacrifices to the dice gods :P The dice hve been cruel to you... let's see how they go for Ratticq :P

Spawn is dead. :(

Pillz

The match between Ratticq and Doctor Schleinendorf was almost as fast as Worsneek's.

Ratticq was on crutches as he hobbled into the arena after Slicey Pitt. the rat Ogre showed a surprising layalty to his master. Ratticq hoped he didn't die.... he liked the beast.

The shot went off. Doctor Schleinendorf leapt onto his Ogre's back and moved very quickly right at Slicey. Ratticq's Ogre braced himself and prepared to attack the charging beast. Schleinendorf's beast's talons had a pink liquid all over the, and it was with these that Slicey was slashed with. The wounds began to swell. This seemed to enrage Slicey, who lunged forward, ramming all of his blades into the opposing Ogre. Schleinendorf's creation sputtered, and blood began pouring out of his mouth. He fell over backwards, landing on the fleeing Schleinendorf's foot. Ratticq smiled as he watched the Doctor struggle on the ground. The day was his...

OOC: Ratticq seemed to get the luck that time :P spoils added to Raticq' treasury.... Slicey took 2 Wounds... remember the Skalm outside ;) :P

Next Up:

Ratticq vs. Hallenhal
Jilden vs. Balik

Pillz

You were saying? :lol: (Sorry for that mate, that's really bad...)

Ooh so close, i thought this may happen at some point :P, goes to fix self up and return...

Well done btw jilden :P

Mork, is the bought skalm already used on Slicey Pitt?

-Yes

*gets himself ready for semi-final*...

Funny though, that an outsider manages to dominate the Marienburg tournaments. Perhaps I should crown myself champion of Marienburg, LOL!
