I bags the gladius and shield 

[Lenin Cat]

Thanks for the sticky Jubal

"Well, quite a nice choice there young Agis."

[Tom]

I think I'll choose the trident and net.

[comrade_general]

Longsword.

*ssssssshhhhhhhhhhhwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwing*

The sound of it being drawn from the scabbard.

[Cuddly Khan]

I suppose that leaves me with Dual Katana. What does it do other than (JAAAAA< KATANA!)?

[Jubal]

Does it need to do anything else? 

[Lenin Cat]

It's awesome. It can distract your enemy by its awesomeness.

You enter the arena in a few hours.

[Lenin Cat]

Finally, the brave gladiators entered the doomed arena.
They raised their weapons to the crowd and the Emperor grinned, barely waiting to see blood.

"Today,we have 4 new warriors in our land. Hopefully, they will die slower than the ones before!" announced a Praetorian
The crowd cheered and the gates were opened. 5 starved lions, but still having strength to kill a man, walked towards the group of gladiators. Their chains were cut and the animals jumped towards their prey.
The battle has begun!

[Tom]

I try and calm down and tame the lion barreling towards me.
