Editing Gladiator Combat (section)

== Gladiator Events ==
# Weapons are not activated for 5 turns at the start.
# The characters get radiation sickness/poisoning, since they're stored in a mutant-rat-infested sewer between combats.
#* This doesn't apply to freemen who are entered in the arena combats, only the slaves
# You '''can''' shoot characters from other gangs, i.e. it's a "no teams" combat.

The Gladiator combats are scheduled randomly throughout the week, similar to other town events. You can also go to the Firelight Tavern and request a gladiator event. It's up to you how quickly you get them out:

# You could leave your captured characters in Firelight for a very long time, rotting in the sewers, if you didn't want to enter them in any events
# Or you can start a new gladiator event, one right after the next, until your characters die or win their freedom.

Getting your characters back out of Firelight can be as challenging as winning their freedom!
