Player, is it?

What can I do for you?

Player: "Uh.. something about a Coliseum?"

You think you're ready for the Crucible Coliseum, do you? Well, I certainly hope you're better than the last batch. Barely better than fledgelings, I tell you what.

Even if you've been through the other Crucibles, you shouldn't take this challenge lightly. You won't be fighting Kobolds, Krall, or Balaur this time. You're up against Daevas like yourself.

If you think you're up to it, I'll introduce you to Training Instructor Junos of the Crucible Coliseum.

Player: Accept.

If you haven't heard of Junos by reputation, don't let her know, will you? She's been in the Abyss since the first Kisk was built.

Now she has to put up with a constant stream of snot-nosed wannabes, so her patience is a little... thin.

Player: "Thanks for the warning."

I hope you're not here to insult me with some half-hearted attempt at real combat. So far this week I've had nothing but showboaters, posers, and bedwetters. I sent them back to Poeta with their fettered wings in tow.

You think you can do better, Player? First, let's see if you can listen to the rules without fidgeting! If not, I know you won't be ready for the Arena of Discipline.

Player: "Please, tell me the rules."

The Crucible Coliseum is made up of two different arenas. The first is the Arena of Discipline, where you'll fight opponents one on one.

The one still standing at the end is the winner. The fight lasts for 3 rounds, but an exceptional fighter may defeat their opponent and emerge the clear winner in a shorter amount of time.

Now, take a moment to digest that, and come back to me when you want the rules for the Arena of Chaos.

Player: "I will."

Good. Now that you have learned Discipline, I will teach you of Chaos.

The Arena of Chaos is where six to ten Daevas can fight in a free-for-all. Make sure you are the last one standing.

Are you ready to hear about the Arena of Harmony?

Player: "What are the rules?"

Harmony is about cooperating with your allies in order to strike down your enemies. Here, two teams of three compete for dominance.

Try not to let your team down!

Player: "I won't."

Well, that about sums up the Arenas of Solitude, Chaos, and Harmony.

I hope that was all clear, Player. I can explain it again, if you need me to. But try not to need me to.

Player: "Got it."

Remember now--you or your team must strive to come out on top.

If you are defeated, you can resurrect as often as you like until somebody wins, but it's more satisfying not to die at all.

Now, if you don't mind, I have other noses to wipe.
