For sure.
He'd be battling with himself and the change.
How would you do changes in the second stage for a naga?
Like what would start to appear?
When I think naga...I think snake tail instead of legs (loooong snake tail), pointy ears, maybe horns, forked tongue and fangs (not too big though...sort of like a vampire's only on top and bottom).

No can't be a tail since Naga don't have tails. XD
His will be done like a Mermaid.
Meaning he'll get lizard-y scaley legs which will fuse into one giant tail
when he gets to his 3rd stage.

Not sure about the horns though. Nagas normally are snake people
and snakes don't have horns. Fangs and a forked tail yes.

Huh?
Nagas do too have tails. o-o

"Nāga (IAST: nāgá, IPA: [nəɡá]) is the Sanskrit and Pāli word for a deity or class of entity or being, taking the form of a very great snake — specifically the king cobra, found in Hinduism and Buddhism. A female nāga is a nāgī or nāginī."

No no. I meant tail as in how a dog or a rat has a tail. XD
Is what I meant.

And his 2nd stage wouldn't have a tail like a dog because the tail he'll get as a naga would be both his legs like a Snake has no legs but is all tail.

Yes?

Oh god...no, I didn't mean a tail like that. That would just be....strange...
Haha.
I was talking full out naga (like...3rd stage business).
As for horns....

xDDD

Those aren't horns.
Just specialized eyebrow scales.

>>; Yeah. Horns are usually grafted down to the bone.

Buuuut...
They're horn like. They're "supraocular horns". xP
It IS called "Desert Horned Viper".
xD
Shush Yoru. Don't burst my bubble.

Oh no, I wish I came up with that but I am just her new colorist..She likes to line and I like to color if I haven't mention before she likes to spoil me. My coloring work isn't up yet.
Yes this is first really first rough draft.
Yeah that is what I forgot, I took out the magic stat because it seems like an unfair advantage....Well to shifter
...Hmm maybe weapon enchants so magic but only on weapons with an inhibitor for using any other magic outside of the weapon.
Items:
Training items:
Wooden sword: "Looks more like a stick" adds nothing to stats
Wood shield: "Yeah this is a plank of wood with a leather strap" adds nothing to stats
Bronze: All bronze items add +2 to attacks or defense depending on the item.
Sword
Daggers
Shield
Mace
Hmm I wonder how high maybe silver to platinum with boost going up by two or four..Not sure because furs and leathers could be something worn from previous bouts won.

Starter stats is 15 and max at 30

I was going off of Spartacus (first season)..Sooo not sure either but something needs to be their maybe freedom as a third slot and elite gladiator not sure.

I think there should be an in-game currency since two mini games suggested kinda heavily deal with money.

Okay that works two non-shifters wouldn't really pack as much punch against a shifter. How about if a non-shifter wins against a shifter it equals 4 or 5 since it is harder?

Well I was going to set (put a couple of graphics for start and defeat) that up since house owners would be scarce so really it is only the two free house options. Can't have more masters than actual slaves.
I want to say yes but I kinda want them to work harder at this stage.


Well I am still working on the stats this is really like lets try this. So I am kinda working this out as I go along first time doing something like this. The shifter and non-shifter difference have such a big difference wondering how to go about that. Also first stage has too high of a dice roll if it is 100 maybe 30. Yeah maybe not a post min maybe more of a word count with limit on how often they can go in the arena a week. Then starter characters have to defeat x amount of bots to level up.
Starter character:15 then rper sets up their stats
Ummm lets go with
Hp: 5
Attack: 7
Defense: 3
So training bot is 30 hp and 30 def no attack.
Each post against the bot they roll a dice or maybe random number in accordance with their attack and how it lands is how much the training bot decreases. With an rp attached that the rper will edited to show how they attacked. Side note if it hits between 1-3 it is a miss.

For actual bout I can't seeing the stats besides the total being of use against each other since a roll at the start will determine the winner.
I had another aspect commonly known is fighting against "monsters" and animals. Instead it is criminals denizens bought for sport for the gladiators to fight against. You would use the same system as fighting against training bot. Except these guys can fight back so they will have an attack stat that will need to be rolled like your own attack to see how much hits you each turn.

For gladiators I am thinking you roll you total stats for a winner at the beginning and add +5 for shifter rolls because of the healing ability. I'm still working on how much each bout would be worth to the total. Also if the weapons should add onto stats or if they hold a boost to them that can only be applied to x amount of bouts in x amount time period.

eek I think you're making this way more complicated than it needs to be. That said I'm going to hush and wait till you get it all figured out to offer any other thoughts. It will probably make more sense when it's done.

I am excited for Tang's Naga and also learning lots of snake facts.
I only know about corn snakes from back when I wanted one as a pet.
