The Arena Eternal is not a nice place. Thick shadows and
recesses might hide enemy snipers, ready to loose a fragging hail of
blistering plasma. A seemingly innocent corridor might very well lead
you into the embrace of a lurking proximity mine. And a single mis-step
might plunge you into a searing cloud of death fog or the endless depths
of the void.
In order to avoid being fragged, you'll have to be fast
and deadly. If you want to survive, let alone triumph, you need to know
about the enemies, hazards, equipment, and even allies hiding in the
Arena Eternal.
Gladiators
There are two types of warriors in the Arena Eternal:
Individuals and Team gladiators. The former are the traditional
combatants from Quake III Arena, hardened veterans of individual combat.
As a rule, they have learned to trust no one and to look down on the
Team gladiators.
The Team (or Clan) gladiators have only recently fallen into the
clutches of the Vadrigar. Grouped into teams who must face off in an
array of deadly games, they have learned to trust their comrades and to
fight together. In many cases, they know the only thing that keeps you
from getting fragged from behind is a watchful ally with a fast rail
gun. Even though they work together for victory, these gladiators are
still determined to prove themselves individually.
Individuals
In addition to Sarge, Angel, Patriot, and the other
combatants from Quake III Arena, a pair of new warriors has been
abducted by the Vadrigar. These gladiators are available only when you
play the original Quake III Arena scenarios, however. The Vadrigar
haven't thrust them into the team events yet. Make no mistake, though,
just because they're new doesn't mean they're any less deadly.
Races
Humans: Of all the
races in the universe, there may be none more deadly and adaptable than
humanity. The Vadrigar recognize this and seem to approve.
Undead: Many of the
gladiators are so infused with hate and rage that death did little to
deter their murderous ways. These are the undead and they thirst for the
blood of the living.
B'Rakku: Despite the
darkness of the ocean depths, the Vadrigar have inspected the dangerous
creatures dwelling there and claimed the most lethal for the Arena
Eternal.
Aidami: The universe
is filled with races that resemble humans in many ways, such as the
Aidami. Despite physical similarities, however, these creatures often
loathe their terrestrial cousins and seek to rid the cosmos of them.
