Dante reacted as fast as he could. He managed to crawl to his feet and run, very shakily, towards the fake forest. The brush would be able to hide him, but his arm wound left him almost defenseless and if those beasts could smell him out...
Dante decided it'd be better to just go on instead of thinking about what would happen if he was caught.

Raine's tough leather tunic was made to deflect blows, but Tallons claw stabbed through as if it was butter, right into her abdominals causing her to drop her pistol. Her eyes open wide as she makes a squeak noise, her lungs not really allowing anything else.
Although not fatal it left the Gnoll suprised, allowing time for Dante to begin his get away.
Gritting her teeth she glares at the bird man. Reaching to the back of her belt she draws a throwing knife. "Why did you... Eugh... Have to make this hard!?"
She flicks the knife at Tallon hoping to hit some kind of vital spot.

Dante only ran for a minute or two, but with the searing pain in his arm it felt much longer. He rested against a tree deep in the brush. He leaned back and listened, hearing sounds of commotion That was good and bad. Good, they had forgotten about him momentarily to deal with each other. Bad, he wasn't as far away as he thought he was. Dante didn't think he could keep going on like this. He had to seek medical help or perform on the spot first-aid.
He scraped off a phone sized chunk of bark from the tree, bit down on it in his mouth. What he was about to do was going to hurt, he couldn't risk screaming. He took of his jacket sleeve and revealed his wound. The skin around the bullet hole was beginning to turn purple. A fake jungle with realistic dirt and grime infections, wonderful. He placed a hand around the bullet hole. There wasn't an exit wound so that can only mean....
Dante mentally prepared himself, bit down hard on the piece of bark, and dug into his wound with his fingers. Dante had been stabbed before, one time even hit by a car, but this pain was beyond anything he had experienced before. After what seemed like an hour (it was only a few seconds) he pulled out his fingers and in them he held a glinting piece of metal. The tree bark had slid out of his slack jaw. He just sat there, staring at the bullet. "Well lookie here..." he said hazily. Dante chuckled at the sight of the bloody bullet then leaned his head back against the tree, resting as long as possible before he had to run again.

Tallon dropped as the knife stuck in him taking it and flinging it back towards his foe with full force! "Gotta take you out before..." He coughed up blood, "before I die..."

Johnny entered the arena, dazed and confused about what had happened. The only weapon he had was a 1911 pistol with 5 bullets. He pulled out the gun and yelled "Hello? Can. Anybody tell what's going on?"
Raine caught a flash of the polished silver as the knife was flung back at her. She grits her teeth and holds her hands in front of her face to protect herself... it was too late to try dodge the attack so she waited for the inevitable. The razor sharp knife pierces through the paw-like pads on her palms, the blade going all the through out the other side and the hilt jolting the weapon to a halt... embedded in the Gnoll's hand. The injured Raine lets out an animalistic yelp of pain like if you were to step on a cats tail.
She grits her teeth and looks up, watching the bird creature plummet to the ground... and if luck was on her side, hopefully dead. She knew this was no time to writhe in her agony, there were others around who would kill her if she let her guard down now. With her first pistol on the ground she drew the second with her healthy hand and snapped around quickly to were Dante was knelt letting a bullet echo through the replicated forest. The bullet only found dirt though... Dante having long fled the scene. Raine cursed under her breath and slips her revolver back into its holster, walking over and retrieving the other also.
Grasping hold of the hilt of the throwing knife in her paw she takes a moment to gather herself, biting her lip firmly before smoothly and quickly drawing the knife from the flesh. The Gnoll keels over in pain and grits her teeth, wiping the bloodied knife on her cloak and slipping it back into its sheathe.
This was nothing... a simple draw back. Again, she had been through worse... this is a piece of cake... right? First of all, this strange man had to be killed, she had no choice. Letting her primal instincts take control she scanned the area with keen senses. The smell of fresh blood filled the air. Her own blood instantly recognisable to herself, then there was those of two others. Her nose sniffs, taking in the scents... one belonged to that bird person, the other...
The Gnolls pupils dilate, locking onto Dante's blood. Breaking into a run she follows the scent almost as if following a line drawn on the ground for her leading straight to her prey...
((sorry about my massive AFK there Was at Comicon for a couple days and came home to having to go to hospital >-> but! back now so let the games continue~!))

Dante numbly grasped at the ground next to him repeatedly, as if reaching for something. His mind vaguely remembering something about a pole-like weapon in his mind. A nearby bullet ant crawls onto Dantes hand in his dazed state, it stood on his hand until he twitched. Then it bit down. The pain shooting up his arm woke Dante from his daze. "JAYSUS!" He's snapped back into reality. Between the gasps of air his mind worked. He was in a life or death situation. His arm was wounded, almost useless. His body was tired, but still had surprises left, he hadn't been there that long and he'd already been shot. He was weaponless except... His heart raced and he reached for his belt. Sure enough, when his hand skimmed along his waist it touched a small, rectangle shape taser. He wasn't defenseless. That little grace spurred Dante on, he rose (as slowly as it was) and looked around. No sign of his avian companion. That can only mean a few things and none of them were good. He looked down and gave his taser a quick test shock and it buzzed to life. Maybe a bit too loudly, he realized. He hobbled his way onward in a desperate attempt to make sure he survived this arena of death.
The smell of blood grew stronger... more fresh. Her target... no... her prey was drawing closer. Being a Gnoll, Hyena blood ran through her veins and along with the blood came the instincts. Rarely did she allow them to control her like this, it often led her to situations she would later regret, but as the saying goes 'Desperate times call for desperate measures'.
Glancing down she could see Dante's fresh footprints in the dirt. The gnoll's ears flick upward as she goes down on fours like a beast, dashing through the brush with her tail flowing behind her; her hand was killing her but that didn't seem to matter now, it was all about the hunt. Closer... closer... almost... hunger... prey!
With a snarl, Raine leaps through the brush from behind Dante going straight for the neck... time to finish this...

An Orc War Cheif entered the arena using the weapons before it to kill the guard who sent him here. Throwing his blade forward at Tallon he killed the bird brain instantly! "Come for me puny fighters!!!"

((Correct me if I'm wrong... but I don't think you should have that +6 Rogr'um. From my understanding you need to land hits before you get bonus'?))
((My understanding was that it was how many times they had been hit this far.))
((Copied from first post, hope this helps c: ))
"Add a +1 Modifier to each roll after you land a hit. ((so every time you land a hit with your character against another player you get a bonus to your next ))
Modifiers stack so when you hit your opponent once, you get a +1 modifier, twice gets a +2 and so forth. ((So the more hits you deal the higher chance of hitting the next! Kinda like combo's... also to clarify with Storm, I'm guessing we lose our multiplier if we miss?))"

Standing over the Feather Skins body he lifted his machete from the birds dead body, "who else wishes to end their legacy!?!?!"

A snarl was all he heard, Dante whipped his head in the direction of the beast who made the noise and was met with a familiar face. "You?" He screetched, narrowly ducking the attack. The huntress sailed over Dante, landing swiftly a few feet back. He rushed without thinking, stabbing the taser forward hoping to stick the pins I'm flesh.

Rain completely misses the man as he ducks, soaring over his head and landing on the dirt on all fours, skidding to a halt. She glares up to Dante and snarls, almost all sense of intelligence gone from her eyes, the hyena side taken over. She begins to stalk and circle Dante, drool dripping from her mouth. Suddenly her strong hind legs kicked in and she sprints towards him, going for the weak spot again with her sharp teeth... The neck.

((Idk it's a big arena, but you both are fighting. It's not like he added a big modifier, he just got a luck roll. I'll keep an eye though thanks for the vigilance Rhiannon!))
