One or two NPC's located somewhere around the Arena Canol Works. One will allow the player to agree to 'Gladiatorial Match' against a NPC (or NPCs) of various levels depending on the players faction rank and their own level, once they agree to a match, there will be a fade out and they will be 'teleported' into the pit to face off with their opponents.
The second NPC I'm pondering the idea of having 'Endurance Matches' where the player must fight a few waves of various monsters.
A third NPC will be waiting outside one of the upper doors to the Arena Pit and will take bets on NPC vs NPC or NPC vs Monster battles ... the player is than teleported into the upper stands of the arena pit to watch.
With either of the above a number of NPC's with a custom animation will spawn around the stands above the arena pit ... hopefully something to represent cheering with appropriate sound clip.
An NPC to the stands who sells such things as Nix Dogs, Rat on a Stick and other dubious arena delicacies?
My Queries?
Should there be and could it be done via scripting an oblivion style Arena Raiments? Personally I never liked them much.
Invisible barrier to stop the player as a spectator leaping into the pit and interfering? Stop fighters leaping/flying out? Possibly set the arena to no levitation?
Integrate the base Morrowind arena fights or leave them as is? (The battles against Trebonius, Vantinius, Bolyvn Venim and Rothis Nethan's duel?)
Let me know your thoughts, opinions an ideas
