Porta Libitinensis

The Porta Libitinensis is a somber archway that serves as a chilling reminder of the deadly nature of the Colosseum. It is the gate through which gladiators pass to report for their scheduled bouts, facing the grim reality that some may not return. Guarded by heavily armed soldiers, the atmosphere here is thick with anticipation and dread, heavy with the scent of sweat, blood, and fear. The grim symbolism of the gate underscores the precarious existence of the gladiators, where each fight could lead to victory or a final farewell.

The Gladiator's Market

The Gladiator's Market is a vibrant hub of commerce where warriors gather to purchase supplies, exchange their meager earnings, and seek out valuable information. Stalls brim with exotic goods, from weapons and armor to healing herbs and trinkets. Crowds bustle with excitement as traders haggle loudly, and the scent of grilled meats and fresh fruits fills the air.

The Infirmary

Where wounded gladiators are treated, The Infirmary is a somber yet vital place. Skilled healers work tirelessly to tend to the injured, using both ancient remedies and potent spells. The atmosphere is thick with the scent of herbs and antiseptics, as the burdens of hope and despair mingle in the air. Despite the efforts of the healers, not all gladiators survive their wounds, and the pall of loss hangs heavy over the rooms.

The Lanista's Villa

A stark reminder of the gladiators' servitude, this opulent residence showcases the Lanista's wealth and power. It's a place of envy and resentment, fueling the desire for freedom.
