    Perhaps HoL glads may appear as tavern fights? Would make for some epic fights (drunken tavern brawls) to break up the tedium that is doing tavern quests.

    Drunken tavern battle royal with 4 HOL glads!
    This option uses up all 20 tavern fights but your glad has a guaranteed chance of getting a blue/purple upon winning :P

    Taaga the.... errr...
    Taaga is a brute, not too bright, why, he don't even remember his last....hmm, is that name or moniker? whot? stop asking question or he'll smash your face in with his massive fists, SMASH YO FACE IN WITH HIS FISTS!!! So, errr, is he so dumb he can't even use a weapon except his hands? *KA-POW*

    The Face-Smasha
    Nobody know's his name, and he doesn't talk, because he can't, had his tongue cut out when he was a slave, and he obviously can't write, so he goes by what he does as his name, which is smashing faces with a huge hammer. He is REALLY good with a hammer, and especially good at smashing it into someone's face, it takes strength and skill to be able to swing a huge ass hammer into people's faces consistently, really, it's a marvel to watch him at work sometimes.

    Gank the Snapper(female)
    A Snivler named Gank? geez, how original, does she... *argh* *gurgling sound as the sorry questioner is ganked by Gank*. So why is she called a snapper? well if you ever heard her talk you'd know, conversations with her are like talking to a snapping dog, or piranha, or, well you get the picture, try not to talk to her, conversations with the mute Face-Smasha are much more enjoyable, trust me. By the way, she likes ganking people in the legs to bring people down and then snapping their shins while they are on the ground, yea, that's part of why she's called the snapper too, being short and stealthy helps with that, see? well, ok you probably won't see her coming...

    Troolooolooong
    Nobody but trugs(or troll) have the time pronounce a name like, screw it, I don't care how many 'o's are in that name! The bastard just have extra long limbs, even for his race, and what's more annoying? he lasts even longer in a fight than most of his kin, I've never seen the bastard go down in a fight, not even once, seriously!

    the Belly-tickler
    A rather merry name for a wee Spite, you'd think with a name like that he must be a source of joy in any tavern, well, he's not. He does have a name but everyone calles him the Belly-tickler because that's what he does to an opponent after a fight, he takes small slices from your soft tender belly so he's only "tickling" you with cuts, because that creature has a real taste for thin strips of soft belly-meat. What? oh yes, of course, he's a cannibal. He always prefer the still-living fresh belly-cuts too, says the wriggling and the blood-flow really make their stomaches extra tasty, if he considers you a friend, he'll even offer you some choice cuts from some poor screaming wretch's belly? wanna taste? And if he's in a merry mood, he'd even offer a taste to the poor wretch he's "tickling" in the belly...

    Simba
    Simba is not his real name, it's one of many names he uses and changes, right now, he's Simba. All people know is that he's an Elaar, he's evil, he won't hesistate for a second about double-crossing you if someone offered him coin to do so, and he's one of the best weapons-for-hires there is, specialising in any kind of dirty business you want taken care of. Nothing is too dirty or beyond his means, as long as you got the coin, he'll get your job done. If you need more muscle than a few guys, he has enough connections he can get you an instant army of cut-throats for hire -if you have the coin as well as a healthy commission for him for each extra hire. But if you are ever late in payment, watch out, you might just become the next scalp on his belt.

    Tsuba
    Simba's sister, or, at least, people think she's his sister. That's not her real name either, obviously, just what she's using as a name for now. She's always with Simba, cold, professional, uncaring and dangerous, every bit a reflection of Simba. I hear she's just as good in a fight as Simba, she might be a even better fighter than Simba, nobody has seen her pull out a weapon and remained alive to talk about it. We think she's Simba's sister because they look and dress similarly, sort of, ok, nobody's certain, they might be siblings or cousins, or they might be lovers. Nobody really knows anything with these two, just pay them for the job and let them be on their way. Asking too many personal questions about this pair is highly unprofessional, and potentially fatal for your health.

    Jacinta Skarr - *The Scar"
    See that tall woman wearing her black hair in a topknot with the ritual scar on her left cheek? That's commander Jacinta of the Black Scars, one of the most feared mercenary companies around, they all mark their faces with a ritual scar on the left cheek when they join up. She used to be just Captain Jacinta, but not three years ago, she challenged the old " Black Scar", her father, for command of the company and won, killing her old man in the duel. She has really made a name for herself and the Black Scars since taking over, the Black Scars are now more than twice its original size, commands one of the highest pays around for a mercenary army, and is well-equipped and disciplined enough to assault a small city by themselves. Men in the Black Scars simply call her "The Scar" as the title for their commander. It's rumoured she tasted blood when she was 7 and killed her first man at 9, and one of the toughest promotions in the Black Scars is getting promoted to Captain - you have to survive against her for 2 minutes and still be alive with no major appendages missing at the end to make the cut, you are not even expected to be able to put up half a fight, that's how tough she is.

    Gorrik 'Three-Tooth'
    See that big man with the bald head with a drink in one hand and a wench in the other laughing with a mouth-full of gold at the bar? that's Gorrik 'Three-tooth", commander of the Blood Skulls mercenary company. Just don't mentioned the 'Three-tooth' part to his face, or let one of his men hear you saying that, unless you want to end up with only three teeth yourself. He used to be known as Gorrik Skullsmasher, had quite the fearsome reputation as a skull-taker, until Jacinta of the Black Scars came along. The Black Scars and the Blood Skulls were both fighting on the same side in one of the wars in the north, and an argument over loot between the two companies broke out, a scuffle broke out, tempers were high, the two companies were on the edge of spilling blood, so it was decided the matter will be settled by the two commanders in personal combat. The exact details of the fight were not known to outsiders, all we know was that despite having seen more battles and seasons than the young female commander, he was no match for Jacinta and was carried out unconscious in a bloody mess by his men, the doc who fixed him up could only find three of his teeth left. From that day on he became Gorrik 'Three-Tooth'.

    Nur'rath Haunter (Unknown race)

    A creature of undetermined origin, known to "haunt" places of great bloodshed. It has been encountered - usually with fatal consequences - on old battlefields where huge armies had clashed, in burned cities, in cruel slavers' manors and some claim that they have even seen it in the catacombs below the great Arena. According to most of the descriptions, the creature is not constantly material, can take the form of a mist and uses its physical body only when it attacks its intended prey. Another curious thing about it is that it does not seem to attack random targets but rather people who have the blood of hundreds of victims on their hands. This observation has led to the speculation that "the Haunter" is a special messenger of the Blood Gods, sent to test the skills and resolve of their most devoted followers. There are only two records of Nur'rath Haunters being defeated in battle and in both of them their "slayers" were later attacked again by the same creatures which they had seemingly killed. For who says that the Blood Gods test your skills and resolve only once?

    The Red Centurion (Human)

    A human whose name was erased after he got captured on the battlefield and enslaved. He would have been killed like all of his comrades but the enemy commander was so impressed by his fighting skills (allegedly displayed by slaying no less than a dozen of soldiers that tried to kill him) that he couldn't miss the opportunity to earn some serious profit on the slave market. For the next ten years the Centurion fought on the Arena and earned so much glory that he eventually got released with the overwhelming approval of the crowd. The first thing he did after he earned his freedom was to find the commander of the unit which captured him and make him one head shorter, after which he escaped from the city. Since then The Red Centurion has been seen in mercenary companies, among the bodyguards of rich men (but never slavers) and some claim that he even returned to the Arena once, although in heavy disguise, to kill his old overseer. People claim that during the last years he has become a loner, wandering the Great Realm and searching for the worthy adversary who will end his life.

    The cult of Nurr'Lac
    Nobody knows who or what Nurr'Lac is, well, no one outside the secretive bloody cult knows, most just take this entity as one of the many bloody demons/monsters worshipped by depraved followers. They'd have been dismissed as just another crazy cult looking for any reason to sacrifice babies and indulge in depraved acts with beastial monsters in the name of worship, if it weren't for the fact this Nurr'Lac entity seem to be able to bestow real powers to its followers, real bloody powers, and the cult seems to have infiltrated many cities as its insidious powers grew in the shadows. Their temples are always hidden and it is rumoured Nurr'Lac is some ancient demonic monster created by the blood gods themselves, and it can appear in real form at the head Nurr'Lac temple somewhere out in the wild wastes.

    This person is similar to a character in "The Wire":

    Domar - A bald Dunder male who is the leader of a stick-up crew at the Great Realm capital. He walks casually behind his targets and slowly whistles "I Come From The Land Of Dunder" (which remarkably sounds like "A Land Down Under" by Men at Work). If they hear that tune, it's too late. Then they drop their gold purses and run away. Domar picks up the gold and casually walks back to his hideout. He wears leather armor and keeps a large black maul concealed under his cloak.
