The floor here is uneven, made of several stone blocks that can raise and lower by a clever series of levers, and the whole room is lit by floating orbs of light. Patrons can use this area to spar with each other, or with savage monsters that the Mistress brings in.
Description
A elliptical amphitheater just outside the city, the Sparring Pit, as it has been come to known, is constructed mostly of limestone, opus caementicium, and tuff, and despite some damage the sturdy construction is still used, with rooms for private spars, rooms set aside for training and storage of training equipment included blunted weapons and padded armor.
The center is set up to allow for various spars, stone blocks can be adjusted by a mix of artifice and gnomish engineering allowing the floor to raise, or lower in sections, a track on the outside has shown wear from racing, and all around from the center one can see the stands for the spectators looking down.
Here, those who seek to test, prove, or train martial prowess come. Sometimes, spars will include those of less martial abilities, sometimes wrestling and 'wrestling' happen in the view of cheering crowds, or sometimes just private viewings. A carving to every entrance to the arena shows a simple picture of a centaur in the nude, three blocks shown, with each block being followed by words 'Think' 'Speak' 'Consent' written in multiple languages next to each.
