Arena ABCs - Magical Mercenaries

General Summary

"Some would say they let success go to their heads, others that their bravery was unmatched, you decide." --Review from Fjordhaven Post

Kalvin, Anathema, Ava, and Slither hung around the capital city of Fjordhaven for a bit and decided to join up in another arena game! This time, they participated in a new game type, the Arena ABCs! The fights had the following rules:

1. One party verses the monsters.
2. Each letter has 1 or more monsters in their level.
3. No healing spells or items allowed.
4. The party has 1 round between defeating the monster and the next one appearing.
5. Defeat all 26 for a special prize, otherwise just collect the prize winnings at the last completed letter.
6. Any member can tap out, but that's counts for the whole party.
7. If a member dies, the party can continue. If the whole party dies, that's it!

The arena had some simple cover and some high ground, and the party did well enough. Ana snuck around invisibly and always made sure to make here enemies regret being born, Ava won over the crowd with her messy kills, Slither summoned a gun and blasted the Ilmater out of everything (and also found some great hidey-holes), and Kalvin broke a lot of arrows. Nevertheless,the cryo-Hydra for H got the best of them after loosing a biting frost breath that took out Kalvin, and the party tapped out after defeating it. They harvested some trophies and trinkets, collected the body of their dead friend, and set off to collect their winnings!
