Battle Rules
The sounds of clashing swords echoed through the arena as the two warriors squared off against each other. Quick thrusts and expert parries were the order of the day as the crowds cheered them on in hopes of seeing blood. A foot slipped and the crowds favorite fell the the sand and swiftly a sword darted in to stop a centimeter away from his throat. His oponent looked up to his god in the stands and saw that he had given a thumbs down sign, the crowds roared in pleasure as what was thought to be a simple spar was about to end as a Death Match. The fallen warrior knew his time was up and so he closed his eyes and awaited the killing stroke of the sword, a stroke that never came as one in the crowd had fired a crossbow at the standing warrior, the bolt lodging deep within his throat. The female assassin swiftly twisted a ring upon her finger and slipped out through a hastily created magic portal back ot her lands. The gladiator would survive today but being a slave to a god meant that he may not survive the next day. Such was the way of life, kill or be killed, find friends in the shadows or seek protection with the light. To survive form day to day one needed to know how to fight.

An aggressor match will be started as follows in a log (RoT DM Strike On ??????). At this point the first attack is made against the target of the match, once that is done the target has the choice to either keep fighting or attempt to flee. If the person flees then they must state their flight and then roll their dice if their dice roll equal or more than the attackers then they have escaped, however if the dice were not high enough then they must fight the match and they have just forfeited the first round of attacks.
