READY FOR BATTLE?
Fill out the following form and comment on this journal! An admin will roll your results and award your Stryx's Valor. You can battle up to 3 times per month (4 times for those with the Gladiator Career)!
If you choose to battle an NPC/Group Starter, that Stryx will have no boosts (breath, armor, companions, etc.) but will always start with 100 health.
In a Boss Battle, to officially rise in rank, you must choose an opponent from the Boss List.
____________________________________________________
Including a Battle Image or Story is OPTIONAL, but does award you a higher chance at rare Arena Prizes!
You can not re-use or recolor Battle images! All images must be original.
Backgrounds on drawn entries MUST depict an Arena/Coliseum-like background. (Example) If you have difficulty drawing buildings, a natural arena may be depicted instead where the natural features have been formed into a ring shape.
Collaborations are allowed.
Art = Fullbody, 2 stryx, colored, coliseum background (riders optional)
Literature = 800 words minimum
Battle Images must be counted and logged on your stryx's character sheet before it can be used!

AUTO-HEALING
Auto-healing is something that you may optionally request if you are posting multiple battles in a row and don't have time to heal in between. If you are concerned that a knock-out will prevent you from being able to use all your monthly battle slots, you can request an auto-heal to get them back on their feet before the next fight.
To auto-heal in the event your stryx is knocked out (reduced to 0 health) you may link to mashes to be used to ensure your stryx will be ready to fight again. You will need to provide mashes ahead of time in the space provided in the battle form, either as comment links, or you can specify the number of mashes to be pulled from your inventory.
Please note, Auto-Healing will only be activated if your stryx gets knocked out. If your stryx is already knocked out, you will need to go to The Healing Tree to revive them before posting a battle. The same goes if you want to boost the health of a non-knocked out stryx between fights.
