Thread: A Drunken Monk Battles a Katana Wielding Cowboy

Here we see a large circular arena, perhaps two hundred feet in diameter. The center of the arena consists of a packed-dirt surface surrounded on all sides by a young bamboo forest. Outside the ring of bamboo there are thick walls standing fifty feet high that close off the arena from the outside world. Spread throughout the center area are bamboo platforms of varying height and size, ranging from a mere head-height scaffolding-like platform only a foot wide, to a great twenty-foot wide platform at the very center, standing thirty feet tall.

At opposing sides of the arena there are two small paths cut through the bamboo, leading to two small doors in the thick wooden walls. It is through these doors that the fighters will enter. At the base of select platforms are racks containing various bladed and blunt weapons, mostly Oriental in origin. If at any time a competitor loses their weapon, they may use one of these provided substitutes. Assorted objects are also scattered about the arena, though not in a cluttered fashion. Who knows what use that stray helm may have?

There are few rules in this fight. These rules have been decided upon beforehand. This is not a fight to the death, but to the defeat. It will be left up to the fighter to determine if he is defeated.

Let the fighting begin!
