The Games of Saberhaven
Sade vs. Dor-Die
        The very tall, thin man enters the Arena, robes flowing around him, an aura of orange flame surrounding his body. He's an ugly man with three warts on his face. He drools a bit and looks around. Light radiates from his body a dozen feet or so. Tentacles extend fromhis body and he's slightly blurred.
       His opponent this day is the duerger warrior named Dor-Die. He's a crabby member of the Dark Ones, a Saberhaven group led by the notorious cambion Bellow. The grey dwarf sneers at the bright light.
       Sade advances holding a fiery ball in one hand. He summons forth a stream of acid and sends it hurtling at the dwarf. As the dwarf tries to wipe the sopping acid from his brow, Sade hurls the fiery orb at Dor-Die.
       Angered, the dwarf runs at the mage. Sade stops and hurls another miniture metoer at the wdarf then summons six magical missiles which unerringly hit the dwarf as he comes very close.
       Finally in range, Dor-Die hurls his hammer at Sade. The hammer goes right through the illusion and returns to the dwarf's hand. Surprised and somewhat confused, the dwarf sudeenly turns invisible.
       The mage's tentacles draw swords as he becomes visible. He tosses another meteor at the last known position of Dor-Die but it misses anything. Sade casts a spell with eight mirror images surround him, repeating his activity.
       Suddenly he sees his invisible opponent, and he's right next to him! Also to his surprise, the duerger seems to move right to him, ignoring the mirrored images.
       Sade dodges a hammer blow - the grey dwarf cringing from the light radiating from Sade - and manages to toss out a black orb and another meteor. The black orb hits the dwarf, and freezes him in his tracks.
       The ugly mage steps forward and slices and dices the dwarf with his four swords. Under the numerous strieks of the blades, Dor-Die falls to the ground.
