Round 2 - Introduction
The survivors are treated. Their wounds are bandaged and they are given time to rest. A day and a night go by with little word from the guards charged with their care, or from the troll behind it all. The contestants that will move on to the next round are left in the shambled remains of the first blood bath, wondering what will come next.
Some will notice, if they care to return to the arena, that the staff has been busy. There is no longer a neutral pond-and-forest scene awaiting their next series of battles. The arena has changed, either by brute work or the technology of drones, to emulate a dense swamp. There are a few patches of semi

Round 2 - Prologue
The Slaver is not happy with the Hunter. Everyone in the lounge knows this, has known it since the night they began this charade. But things are worse, now. Much worse.

A giant screen dominates one wall of the roster room. It is composed of several screens, each flashing a different set of information at the viewers. On the far left is a floor map with a scrolling list of room assignments. It reads:

The Introduction
The Main Hall is designed to be imposing. A wide floor penned in on one side by a balcony where the guards stand restlessly, and on the other is a four story tall window looking out into the vast abyss of deep space.
Thirty two trolls, none of them old enough to leave Alternia on their own. They stand in the center of this hall that's much too big for them, and they've been here for quite some time. The first ones to arrive have been here for nearly six hours; gathering them all has been a difficult process. But now the last troll has come stumbling through the double doors and they can begin.
The lights go down and the doors leading to t

I've been wanting to join this group for a while now, but now that I took a look at the comments ... Did this group died out or something? I was actually tempted to give this a shot. :<
So is Fatal Gambit officially over? Because I took a look at the mock-up FG Group, and that didn't seem too active either. Is it officially done and go out in flames ... ? D:
