OOC: My nation is FT, but we also have gladiatorial games with regular swords(i.e. normal, steelbladed ones, not vibroswords or such). Am I welcome to send a gladiator? If so,
IC:
Name: Arcanus Destructorianus
Height: 192 cm, 6 ft 3"
Age: 25
Sex: Male
History: From more than a million applicants, Arcanus Destructorianus was the one chosen by the Emperor and his greatest fighters. Since that day 7 years ago, he has been trained by the greatest fighters in the Sonaian Empire: Arcanii and Destructorian. His gladiatorial name is based on theirs, as is custom in Sonaj. He is one of the greatest gladiators in Sonaian history, and this is his first ever appearance outside the Empire.
Bio: Skilled with both agility, speed and a considerable strength, Arcanus Destructorianus' greatest strength is his precision with a sword and his great movement skills. As he is highly valued in Sonaj, he will ot risk death.
Choosen Event: Imperium
Nation: Sonaj
Nation Leader: The Emperor

OOC: If not, just say so and I will, of course, withdraw.

The Jotun Nation of Mimer wishes to send a fighter to these games:

Name: Bergelmir
Height: 6ft 7"
Age: 22
Sex: Male
History: Renouned for his prowess in battle, Bergelmir was given his name in memory of a dead member of the Jotuns, the leading family in Mimer. Not a Jotun himself, Bergelmir is still quite large and strong, and though he prefers to wield an axe, he has been trained in swordsmanship. He has also been known to berserk, a state of mind where his primal instincts take control, making him oblivious to painor morale.
Bio: Very big, wide and strong, Bergelmir is seen as one of the greatest fighters of Mimer, not a small achievement in such a nation. What he lacks in speed, he makes up for with rage.
Choosen Event:TRIDOLIUM
Nation: Mimer
Nation Leader: Thrym

Illicia
12-08-2005, 18:50
Name: Benjamin Bashir
Height: 6' 1"
Age: 29
Sex: Male
History: Ben, for all his accomplishments in Illicia, is young compared to some predecesors. He achieved his first black belt, in Tie Kwon Doe(sp), at the young age of 10. Feeling that he had conquered most of that area, he branched into other areas of martial arts, to 'round out his experience,' as he would put it. He is considered one of the best fighters in Illicia, at least outside of the professional military. Ben loves to run, and test his speed and courage by rollerblading down steep roads. He jumped at the chance to test himself against other fighters from the world, the better to gauge his abilities and learn where he needs to develop more.
Bio: Can be described as 'skinny,' though is widely considered one of the fittest men in Illicia. Not overly muscular, can lift a little more than twice his own weight (162 lbs). Avid runner and speed skater. 1st degree black belt in Karate, 2nd degree in both Tie Kwon Doe & Jujistsu(sp), and twice runner-up in the National Illicia Martial Arts Competition.
Choosen Event: Imperium, though if allowed to enter other events would also like to enter the Muntila and Hun events.
Nation: Illicia
Nation Leader: Emperor Marcus il-Lica III
