“	Hey there. First time? Alright, there's a seven-day rotating schedule for all the events we have here except gladiator combat, which is every day. Secondly, tickets are 50 EC for a spectator and 500 for a competitor. There are prizes for winning and all that... hmm. Most people are just here to watch, but you look like you might wanna compete. Am I right?	”

Description

It stands impossibly tall, a structure of incredible size and presence. Towering into the sky, the roars of excitement coming from within reverberate in your bones. There must be tens of thousands of people inside. Even now there are people filing in, looking to catch the rest of the entertainment. It feels like everyone in the city wants to participate...

It stands impossibly tall, a structure of incredible size and presence. Towering into the sky, imposing even in its relative inactivity. This place is enormous. It feels like a giant creature laying dormant, the populace just waiting for it to awaken from its slumber...

There's a manrandom variationa lupine, leothran, or orc standing outside, ceaselessly yelling information and advertisement. You have to admire the tenacity.

Visit

First Visit

What the Champion first sees at the entrance of the colosseum depends on the hour9 + 2 variants[2:00 - 4:59]
[5:00 - 7:59]
[8:00 - 9:59]
[10:00 - 13:59]
[14:00 - 15:59]
[16:00 - 16:59]
[17:00 - 19:59]
[20:00 - 22:59]
[23:00 - 1:59]

Getting to the attendant's desk:
[16:00 - 16:59]
[17:00 onwards], regardless of how packed or empty the entrance is, they make their way to the desk of an attendant, who gives a rehearsed spiel about the rotating schedule of events the colosseum has. While there are a wide variety of events, the Champion is only able to sign up for the gladiatorial combat, which occurs every day.

The attendant explains that a spectator ticket costs 50 EC, while a competitor ticket costs 500 EC. He muses that while most people are there to just watch, the Champion looks like they might want to compete - to which they can answer:

Option	Tooltip
Going to Win	You'll compete alright.
Yes	You're pretty much guaranteed to enter at some point.
Maybe	You'll consider entering.

Whatever the Champion chooses has no significant impact, outside of a short variant for Going to WinAfter successfully defeating Alante in Solo combat, the change being what the Champion says after Alante mentions the last fight.

Gladiator Event

---

Between 8:00 to 10:59, the Champion can participate in by expending 1x Competitor Ticket. Upon spending the ticket, the Champion's party is fully healed.

First Time

---

The Champion reaches a sandy room filled with eager competitors, where an old lupine man gives a pre-combat speech about how most newcomers won't make it past the first round, that its all about experience and thinking. After his talk about the rules, he asks the Champion what they think about his prediction about the newcomers:

Option	Tooltip
Arrogant	As if the rabble even understands what they're in for.
Dismissive	Who cares about what happens to the other fighters?
Friendly	There's always a chance.

Like the first visit to the Colosseum, the Champion's choice has no significant impact. Regardless of the choice, it changes a small variationentering the event changes a small variation in the first Flirt scene with Isadora, whether the colosseum is old news or not

additionally it is changed if the Champion has won at least once with Isadora.

Subsequent Times

---

Similar to that of the first time, the Champion enters the same room, with the old lupine giving his speech, the Champion notes that he was right, as they do feel they have a bit of an edge over the other fighters now that they have experience. If the Champion has won at least once, they know he's not talking to them, but to the up-and-comers and the scrappers.

The Gauntlet

At the staging area, the gladiators are ready and the pre-fight rituals are performed. Each companion, except Agnimitra and Viviane, have their own remark or gesture before the games begin.
