Inside the arena is where he thrived a man who was known for his skills in hand to hand combat. There in the stands sat a single man in the barren arena. It seemed to be a day that not a single soul had come to the arena. The man stood up as he witnessed an individual walk into the arena finally. The man stood 6'5 had pure glowing green eyes and his black hair only made those eyes stand out even more. He jumped down and landed on the sand topped ground and walked over to the new individual.
Kenn saw the man and walked over to him "I suppose your the arena master?" he said taking out his shield with the read bull head crested onto it, he waited for a response before doing anything else. He looked around the arena, it looked like an old roman Colosseum to him but of course it wasn't perfect to the name so he instead thought it was inspired by it.

Errown looked at the man and crossed his arms. "Well... You could call me that but seems like today the arena hasn't had anything happen" He looks at the man observing him directly looking at the shield he pulled out "Seems like you use an antique? What generation?"
Errown looked at the place where Kenn was looking directly too. "So the place reminds you of a colosseum doesn't it? It was built this way in order to give an atmospheric scene. The only real unique thing about this place is well... All of it despite its looks. It has been designed to take the strongest in magical damage and physical impacts. Also it's been designed for the Terrain modifier so that any kind of fight can take place here."

Kenn nodded "this shield is a first generation, it was found inside an old ruin long ago, my father gave it to me along with his sword" he pulled out his sword, with a blue hilt wrapped in rags used for soaking up blood from a wound. "The architecture is phenomenal, however I must ask how does the Terrain Modifier work?" he asked curious about the whole arena as he stuck his sword backwards in his hand and stuck it in the ground holding the hilt.

"The terrain modifier is used by direct magic that is influenced within the Arena itself and it's used to create the unique environments like this one here. The place we are in is technically a magic dome which has magic within the air. This is provided by the magicians on campus who work for the head master. Of course that's only during main events you'll see the terrain modifier be used. Other then that it's just this but as the Arena Master i have quite a large amount of privileges here within this area." he looked around and walked to the edge of the arena. "If i may add we also have a wire built through the ground for my use. It's much weaker then the terrain modifier which takes direct magic from individuals. While this is just used for days of training."
He flipped a switch and the landscape began to move beneath Kenn slowly changing.

Kenn was shocked for a moment then moved off the area and stepped behind the wire and watched the environment change with amazement "impressive, I don't think anyone back where i'm from would be able to do anything like this." he held his sword tight and pointed it forward checking it for any sort of mark or dent in the shape of the blade "what would be used training in hand to hand combat?" he asked anxious to hit something with his sword as he felt his skills were rusted on his way over to the academy

Errown cleared his throat slightly and looked around. "Normally for hand to hand as a Nether i enjoy the forest because of the unlimited power i can gain from the area. But, Most of the time its flat ground no where to hide. Just all skill and that alone. Why do you ask are you interested in some sort of fight?" he looked at him and placed one hand on his shoulder. "Keep in mind your a first year. I can help you spar but it would be extremely tough considering I'm a fifth year."
Kenn nodded "I'm just one of those that love a good fight" he pointed his sword towards the ground and stuck it in the ground holding his shield in front of him he looked to the arena master "shall we begin?" he asked the back plate of his armor began to steam a little. he wanted a good fight, someone who could definitely hold their own ground.

"Hmmm? Putting down your weapon? I think your advantage with your weapon would help quite a bit." He walks over to him and bows towards Kenn "I definitely admire your attitude towards fighting. I can see why you'd be looking for a good fight though." he walks away towards the opposite side of Kenn and stood his hands up ready. He seemed to be very used to fighting and that was definitely shown.
Kenn walks towards the middle of the arena picking up his sword out of the ground, his backplate began to show some smoke and he was pumped for some combat getting in a stance where he held his shield directly in front of him and his sword held behind him in the same direction of his arm. "I honor those who would fight valiantly in combat, those who dare fight unlawfully deserve punishment" he waited fora response of sorts

To Kenn's eyes he saw Errown's feet begin to dig into the ground meaning he was about to move quickly. He lowered his hands slightly and then launched off that spot and jumps at Kenn from an upper position after a jump.
Kenn crouched and put his shield into an upper position letting the Arena Master roll off of it he began moving and stepped back a few feet and turned his shield to face Errown "Excellent first move" he pointed his sword forward still arched backwards "my turn" he charged forward, slid a foot around and swung his sword with his foot keeping his shield at his side.

Errown jumped back quickly and did a straight punch after landing. He managed to hit Kenn directly on the chin. The force of the hit managed to knock the helmet clear off and fracture it splitting the chin piece. Kenn had a wide opportunity to counter attack Errown.
Kenn dropped his swing and made it turn upwards instead knocking Errown's arm upwards then he smashed his shield into his stomach pushing him back. His eye's were filled with fear, stress was starting to get to him, he never managed to stay long in a fight but he always did his best. He slowly trotted backwards until he reached a distance away

"Well done" he clapped for Kenn and started walking towards his helmet and tossed it towards him. "Ready for more?" he tightened his Fist and launched out a Nether sphere. The green sphere flew towards Kenn at a quick speed. He then ran at Kenn after the sphere was in the air.
Kenn caught the helmet but then dropped it quickly when the sphere hit him and was knocked to the ground. He saw Errown heading towards him so he held his shield up and rolled attempting to get back to his feet, then he thought to himself what was I thinking taking on a fifth year. I'm insane and probably gonna die within the first year he tried not to concern himself with it the stress working it's way into Kenn's mind

Errown stood over Kenn and put down his hand for him. "Well Kenn you did well for a first year. I believe you'll do well. Instead of practicing your fighting skills though I'd practice your strategies. That's probably the best way anyway for you to get a lot better." He made sure to help Kenn up fully.
Kenn took his hand and got up slowly "thanks, i'm sorry but i'm not used to such fast reactions." he said breathing heavily "it wears me out to fast" he knelt down putting his hands on hs knees and continued to breathe

"If you think long and hard about it though. I'm a Nether so it makes sense why it would be difficult as well. Nether tends to counter a physical fighter quite well. Our skin is protected by the energy in our skin. It's strong enough to be the armor that you wear and more. Though unlike physical fighters we aren't well rounded Magicians can easily counter us" He stood over Kenn and looked ahead. "Perhaps i can help you Kenn I may be able to give you something to help you become stronger."
Kenn nodded then went down on his knees "Please, I respectfully request that you mentor me" he imagined how pathetic he looked but he understood that to him he was truly desperate. "I need help if i'm going to make it through this academy I need to learn to better myself so that I don't fail my squad mates" he grabbed his helmet from nearby and got back up, he looked at the chin and rubbed a thumb across it
