Pit Fighter (Warrior Kit)

Description: 
   Pit Fighters are similar to the Gladiator.  Both fight for 
the entertainment of others, but this is where the comparison ends.  
Gladiators fight in open arenas for the public or the rich.  They usually 
fight in such a way as to rouse the crowd, so as to gain popularity.  
Many a popular Gladiator has gained a position as hero or upper classman 
because of his deeds in the arena.
   Pit Fighters, on the other hand, fight in back alleys, back 
rooms, tavern basements, and other unwholesome environs.  The people they 
entertain are  usually of questionable ethics, or background.  They don't 
desire fame, they just want to collect their money and leave.
