Amazon Gladiatrix
The Amazons are a legendary warrior tribe, natural-born combatants renowned for their extraordinary strength. Though they hail from various races, all Amazons share this sacred gift, passed exclusively through the female lineage.
Though now the subject of romantic tales and songs of valor, the Amazons were once feared and exploited. In darker ages, many were chained and dragged into the great arenas, displayed like prized beasts and forced to fight for the amusement of bloodthirsty crowds. There they faced warriors and monstrosities alike, and tales of their victories gradually spread across the continents.
After centuries of captivity, the Amazons rose in rebellion. They turned their chains against their captors, seized the arenas in which they had once bled, and freed those still held in bondage. In doing so, they claimed the sphere of gladiatorial combat as their own.
To this day, many Amazons remain closely tied to the arena, where they dominate the sands and fight on their own terms. Some have risen to such fame and fortune that they rival even the nomarchs in wealth and influence.
Though they have access to some of the finest wargear in the world, many retain their iconic gladiatorial garb. Their armor leaves vital parts exposed, not through carelessness, but as a deliberate challenge. To reveal one’s vulnerability before an opponent is the ultimate display of confidence.
Their enemies need only look upon them to understand the message.
