Special events are one of the great things about Stendhal, they can be organised either by admin or players, and they takes different forms.

Show fights

In a show fight creatures are pitted against each other in battle. It can be one on one battles against evenly matched creatures, or one strong creature against many weaker ones. Sometimes players can bet on the outcome of the battle. Of course these fights are held within enclosed arenas so that there is no danger to watching players.
