Go Blades, Arena names - KuKulzA - 03-27-2006
I think this was from the first game, Arena....
Black Marsh
Helstrom
You enter the city gates of Helstrom, noticing the dark looks the guards give you. You've heard of the Pit Daemons, who fight here. They have a reputation of being very dangerous. Perhaps you can change that...
Archon
The city gates of Archon loom over you as you enter. People around you here seem to be avoiding eye contact. You've heard that the Plague butchered their last opponents in this Arena and ate their remains. Not a fate you'd wish to share...
Gideon
Gideon, the black city of the followers of Seth, lies near the southern tip of the Imperial Run. A cold air that has nothing to do with the time of year seems to chill your bones as you enter. It has been rumored that the Shadowblades, who fight for Gideon, are undead...
Blackrose
Blackrose, near the legendary forest of Murkwood, holds many secrets. You feel eyes on your back as the city gates shut behind you with a hollow boom. The Arena here holds the blood of many teams who have lost their lives to the Warriors. You do not plan to add yourself to that list...
Lilmoth
Lilmoth, home of the Dark Tide, seems gloomy and forbidding. Never before have you experienced the unnatural fear that pervades the atmosphere. This city it is rumored, holds much under its streets...
Soulrest
You enter the gates of Soulrest, leaving the sounds of the ocean and surf behind. Inside it seems as if a hush as fallen over the city, as if all inside are holding their breath in anticipation. The Knightblades fight here, and it seems that the citizens are eager for blood...
Stormhold
Stormhold lies on the northern tip of the Province of Black Marsh. Here the people seem friendly, but a strain shows in their eyes. Perhaps it is because of their proximity to the Dark Elven lands. You only know that their team, the Black Shields, fight here and are considered perhaps the deadliest team on the continent...
Thorn
Thorn holds the eastern edge of the continent, and has been named by some the Jewel of the East. As you enter their gates however, you realize that this town is as deadly as it is rumored to be beautiful. Vagabonds eye your purse strings and guards seem to turn lazy eyes elsewhere. The Warlords fight here, and if they can make a home in such a place, it seems they will be implacable foes...

of course this doesn't sound totally true but we can draw good ideas based off of the descriptions
and as they have formal arenas, they are apparently Imperial towns, and the rest are either too small or are Argonian....
then again most Black Marsh towns even if Imperial are at least 50% Argonian populated

This is an older game and the inner cities apparently have less Imperial control. We could make a bunch of arenas. It could be a hobby of the Imperials, bored of being posted in Argonia.

Can't we just put a happy city in somewhere? Like in Morrowind, everything was so...gloomy. The Black Marshes need to have a happy place, like an Argonian sanctum city. Argonians are the nicest race in Oblivion.

that may be so, as long as you aren't some exploitive Imperial or slavering Dunmer.... some of them have a grudge on Imperials and all a hatred for Dunmer...
but you would probably find the Argonians in the inner swamps far away from Imperials or Dunmer to be relatively happy... unless they are in a tribal war
but that's not too common...
