Overview

The Crimson Arena is found among the buildings in the eastern parts of the city. It is an imposing building to most outsiders. To those who live within Yaralon, the true beauty that goes on within is far more beautiful than what outsiders see. Though duels are held on the streets of the city almost every day, that does not compare to the amount of bloodshed within Crimson Arena. Early on the structure was used to try and enforce laws in the city. [[:Category: Yaralon Full Timeline | After 109, the council decided to use the Arena as a place for fighters to train and duel instead of using the streets.]

After making the decision, remodeling and staff interviews began to ensue. There were ten instructors hired on, a booking lady, several chefs, and, of course, spotters to watch the battles. Spotters are the enforcers of the arena. They make sure all rules are followed and that there is no unauthorized death during battles. Rooms off the side of the main battle arena were made into staff quarters and offices for the instructors to rest in between teachings. Once all the teachers were brought in, they sat down and decided the types of battles that could be watched. Battle royales, viewers choice, no weapons, handicap matches, and same weapons. There are also tournaments held towards the middle of each season.

Battles

There are several types of battles held at the arena. Same Weapon, Battle Royale, Instructor’s Challenge, Viewer’s Choice, No Weapons, and Death Match; at least one of these battles is held once every 10 trials. Everyone is invited to participate, no matter the skill level. Most that are regulars have been trained by the instructors for at least one full season, before trying their hand at the battle.

Same Weapon

Same Weapon is exactly what anyone could guess would be the style. Participants are allowed only one weapon the entire battle. All weapon racks are removed from the field and locked away in the side rooms by the spotters. Participants are expected to tell the spotters what weapon will be used during the fight. As participants prepare to enter, they are checked for any extra weapons besides what they have claimed.

Battle Royale

Battle Royale is where all signed up participants fight each other at the same time. Two members will start out battling in the middle, as time passes on more participants are sent into the arena until all have entered. Spotters stand inside the ring and watch removing any who can no longer fight in the match. As with all the other matches, the fighting does not stop until there is one victor left.

Instructor's Challenge

Instructor's Challenge is where any trainee can fight an instructor. These fights are normally to test skills in front of a crowd. However when a rival refuses to fight, the challenger can call out the instructor and fight him/her instead.

Viewers' Choice

Viewers' Choice is where the people in the audience are allowed to vote on what kind of fight is competed that night. The options are weapons(type of weapon), no weapons, and how many fighters will participate. Once the decision is made, the spotters will remove weapons or give the designate weapons to fighters before allowing them to enter the ring.

No Weapons

No Weapons is a match where no weapon is allowed other than the fighter's bare hands. Spotters remove all but the main weapon from the participants before allowing them to enter. Once the match begins, the spotters will stand at the exits and watch for any kind of cheating.

Job Requirements

Spotters need competency in Unarmed Combat and at least one weapon.

Vendors need to bring a sample for Aliron to try and be added to the rotation.
