Fight in the arena and rise up the ranks. Over 130 unique fighters to fight. Can also watch and bet on fights between NPCs. Also adds voiced speeches and crowds to vanilla quest duels.
Except for the glass dome which is an edited dome from Glass Domes of Vivec and the Arena without a dome, which is just the edited vanilla dome, all meshes (that includes the animations) are created by me and are free to use (other than the Guts head and hair, which were created by Alexander and follow the Tamriel Data permissions). The voice files have been created by Von Djangos and Kildozery, so please give them credit if using them. Anything with "rats" in the file name was created by Rats, who will need to be asked for permission before said files can be used. The Adoring Fan assets were created by LambShark. See the original mod here for permission details (https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/50249) RealAshstaar created the Dunmer gut assets, so they will need to be contacted for permission.
