Can't be that surprising really. Negate/diminish protectionie armour or ward. Then kill the sqishy being inside. Look at it this way as well how many have 1+armour, re-roll and a ward save.
Freakin elves r so expensive I could only manage it with 20 left for weapons so I didn't. Did have a funny one with the rbt bow and you wound me I bounce armour but was unsure how you would do stand n shOot every round. Would have been funny as rbt bolt ignores armour and does multiple wounds but a 4 + ward could negate it easily but I could possibly get 4 kicks at it.
Loving some of the stories and lOoking forward to see what else shows up. Interesting to me tht there haven't been any woc, dark ellves or saurus.

Khan steered his team into a clearing just off the well travelled roadway. As usual the beasts wanted no part of imposed behaviour, so it took all his strength pulling on the chains to get them to come to a complete stop. The little hobgoblin hooped down from the command chair, immediately reciting an incantation and with a wiggle of his fingers the enchanted harnesses grew extensions that wrapped around the varg beasts legs, then planted firmly into the ground. No point taking changes with these wild things. Medocially, like so many times before, he went through the motions as he set up his little shop. He'd had a recent run on magic shards and needed time to replenish his supply before the next 'customer' came along. Khan's grin widened as he winced in pain. His left knee, again. Excellent! Another sucker with cash and the two would soon be parting. It was going to be another good day.

Saves? What are those? I hear girls like to use those a lot. Well here's a girl that doesn't.
Yuki
Vampire Sword of Strife Night Shroud Potion of Strength
Quickblood Red Fury
285 points exactly
Daughter of Iajutsu master Itashi, Yuki grew up knowing only challenge and the shadow of those more important then her. A prodigy of the sword she learned fast and earned respect from most, but never he. Nothing she did was ever good enough, she slaughtered Ogres and Orcs, Lizards and Dwarves, Rat men and even the fabled High Elf in the name of her family's honor... she always seemed to fall short in his eyes.
Then she found it, immortality and all she needed to prove herself to him. A traveling Vampire Lord drew her in with his talk of sword play and foreign endeavors only to feed on her and change her to become his bride. He taught her to adapt to her new existence. How to hunt, to avoid the sun and the cross... best of all he taught her how to hone the power and speed of her new form. She thanked him by decapitating him, stealing his relics and burning his estate. Now he would accept her.
She challenged her father to a duel of the blade, and though he was skeptical he accepted. The cloak she had stolen from her Sire had this mysticism to it, seeming to slow the air itself around her, draining the energy from her father as she moved ever closer to him, her speed quickly turning her arm into a blur as she drew her sword and sheathed it immediately after. They stood there in silence a moment, staring at one another and that's when it happened. He patted her on the head and smiled before falling apart into a gory mess at her feet. Finally he had accepted her, but her heart grew cold and dead...she lifted his sword examining it closely before snapping it in half over her knee and tossing it aside, she didn't need him anymore. Now she lived for the fight and the hunt- sustaining herself so she could kill more, and killing more so she could feel alive but it became harder each time to get the blood flowing.
Then she saw it, and she knew it would soon be hers... The title of Champion and the chance to taste strong blood once more.

Orc warboss: Kroxx the giant goblin w/ shield and war boar Magic items: armor of destiny, obsidian blade. Kroxx is not or average orc he has less intelligence then an orc with no head. And for this he was abandoned at birth from his tribe and forced to die in the Cursed Marsh. A small goblin tribe felt sorry for him so they took him as a goblin. To this day kroxx thinks he is a goblin and fells he is a giant goblin. Kroxx’s tribe has sent him out to prove to the world that goblins are the best and should not be messed with.

Alright guys... need one more entry minimum in order to run the tourney (and even then there'll be a small issue with having three combatants at the end, but I can try and sort that)
would like to have a full 16 though... so get those entries in! (there's well over a hundred people on this forum - you'd think 16 characters would be easy to get eh?)

no one gets a second character... it's not fair...
If I don't get at least one more character, I'll make the wildcard character myself, or use one of the previous winners of an arena

The Witch King stared into the violet flames and sapphire smoke that danced and billowed from the brazier placed before his mighty throne. As he watched, images and visions of a myriad of possibilities mixed with flashes of events happening at that very moment throughout the world.
The images began to slow and started showing the same things over and over again. It showed images of a group of warriors from different lands and different races. It had been a long time since images such as these had been revealed to him.
"It would seem that it is time for another gathering of the worlds champions Mother. Your choices for the previous ones proved inadequate."
"They nearly claimed victory for us, but my protection can only last for so long." Morathi said with a slight sneer marring the sculpted features of her face.
The last failure had not been her doing, but she suspected that the Witch King had interfered much as she had the first time. The amulets should have been protection enough to have ensured victory.
"This time I shall take a different approach. No more relying on your protection." The Witch King rumbled from within his armour, his eyes flashing brightly to match the flames before him.
With a slight gesture of one finger, his Blackguard ushered in a warrior who's armour seemed to be like a second skin and appeared to have no way of removing it for it had no straps or buckles. The sword at his hip seemed to smoke like the dying breath of a vanquished foe in the deep cold of the north. Around his neck hung a crystal shard that exuded an aura of mischievousness.
As he knelt at the foot of the stairs leading up to the throne the Witch King spoke, "Are you ready Kithas Doraks? Are you prepared to crush all those before you in my name? Are you ready to die for your King?"
With one simple word, Kithas sealed his fate, "Yes."
Kithas Doraks Dreadlord Armour of Eternal Servitude Chillblade The Other Tricksters Shard Seadragon Cloak Shield Points = 249
(decided to try something new with my Dark Elf entry this time)
