Once every ten years, the city of Glondell sponsors a thirty mile race to the sea. The Fireball Run attracts racers from all over the realms with a massive prize package worth over 5,000 gp. The dangerous route follows a canyon through rocky hills and allows racers to battle each other.
Any land based creature or vehicle is allowed to race in the Fireball Run. You will race against chariots, lizard riders, and steam-powered auto carriages. Violence between racers is also allowed, even encouraged, to make the event more exciting for spectators.
Your most dangerous competitor is Furiana “Fury” Tornear, a half-orc Gladiator who drives a chariot pulled by two Dire Wolves. Fury and her team of Thugs will do anything to win the prize, attacking anyone who gets in their way. Add the Battleaxe attack to the Gladiator stats.
Battleaxe. Melee Weapon Attack: +7 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 12 (2d8 + 3) slashing damage, or 14 (2d10 + 3) slashing damage if used with two hands.
If you defeat Fury Tornear in combat, you can claim her Battleaxe of Fury. If you win the Fireball Run, you receive 3,000 gp plus an uncommon magic item worth 2,000 gp.
