A little bit of flavour for the new custom territory I just added to the campaign (don't worry it's the same as the janky-as-all-hell "collapsed dome" I rolled earlier today with @Llewy and @Ptrix as my witnesses!)
Its just a bit "classier" is all....
"The Purple Pendulum" Pit Fighting Club
Income: 2D6 creds
One pit slave may try to drum-up some cash by putting on an "exhibition fight" for the locals in the now tattered and worn "Purple Pendulum" arena (Pit fighters are too proud to fight in such a run-down joint!).
The fights are slow and generally boring and the ground-rent is now too high (due to the gentrification of Badzone 6) and as such not many people will pay their hard-won creds to witness primarily geriatric and "totally past-it" pit-slaves ("they ain't evun proppa pit fightas!!") pound each other's wrinkled and scarred faces into the metal deck.
However you can choose to run a Purple Pendulum pit fight if you wish and if you do so will earn 2D6 credits (after ground-rent, utilities, bar-fees, agency fees, broadcast rights and staff wages). However, on a roll of 1 the Purple Pendulum is overrun by disgruntled customers offended by the quality of the fighting and during the customer-riot the club is burned to the ground, In addition, the pit-slave must make an Initiative test; if they fail the test they are killed during the riot or perhaps in the pit fight by either a heart-attack or a nasty fall after trying to dodge a would-be contender in the arena. The pit slave sent to take part must be crossed off the roster.
