This thread will be your OOC forum for the competitors of the Forge Arena to discuss tactics, collaborations, plots, as well as to ask questions of your fellow combatants and to provide any additional details necessary to clarify your character or your actions.
Each of the combatants in this arena will be placed at an equidistant starting point. The order in which you are listed in the roster is the relative location you enter the arena in, with the first competitor entering in at the North of the arena and moving clockwise around the edge of the arena. Alternatively, you can view this as the competitor listed above you will be on your right and the competitor listed below you in the roster will enter in on your left. All contestants are assumed to enter roughly at the same time, regardless of posting order.
Feel free to ask me questions within this thread, via PM, or via IRC if you have any details you would like clarified. As a reminder, our new IRC channel is #RPooc , and details of how to join it can be found in the initial OOC thread. You can also use the IRC channel to collaborate with the other forumites.

In addition, I will be editing in any questions that may be useful for all combatants to read. Beginning with:
What are the dimensions of the arena?
All Paragon Phase arenas share a similar construction when it comes to the dimensions. From the geometric center it is 65 feet (19.8 meters) of terrain until reaching either a barrier wall or, such as with Spike or Sky, the lethal hazards ringing the arena. Entrance ways vary by arena in terms of design, but consist of eight equidistant points starting from cardinal North. Were one to connect the entrances with lines, you would inscribe a perfect octagon within the circle of the arena.
But we have fewer than 8 in the arena!
While arenas are designed with a maximum occupancy of eight contestants, we'd rather let people spread out and have more arena variety than to crowd everyone into a single arena. Any locations after the last person on the roster is placed would be considered Vacant.
What's the deal with these pillars?
The normal pillars are 20 feet high (6.1 meters) before they pass through the smoke barrier ceiling. There are 16 of them, evenly spaced and forming a ring halfway between the outer edge and the center of the arena. Each are about 3 feet (.9 meters) in diameter. Like the walls, they shed light from the cracks of lava and are hot to the touch.
The central pillar, or "Heart" of the Forge turns to lava about 3 feet (0.9 meters) from the ground. Its flames stay within its boundaries as if it was a stone pillar, but it WILL badly burn anything that touches it and incinerate anything that tries to pass fully through it, regardless of protection.
As an aside, anything that passes up or through the smoke barrier ceiling is considered "out of bounds" and will not re-enter the arena.
Do the gates out of the arena remain open?
Yes, but they fill with a smoke barrier once you pass through. If you choose to pass through the smoke barrier, you will be forfeiting the fight.
