I WOULD say Celestine, since she can come back from death, but given that it's a gladiatorial-style thing and not just a battlefield, it'd probably have a rule that death disqualifies a contender even if she comes back to life. Also, her being a Living Saint I think would drive her over the bounds of god-like powers.

So I'd have to say that one Dark Eldar lady. She's the best of the best (of the best?) at Dark Eldar gladiatorial arenas. It's what she does both for a living and for fun, and she does it with just a pair of knives.

Also, I'm pretty sure that in such combat, the only exposed flesh her opponents are going to be concerned with is the abdomen. There's a reason that real life armor covers it. It's soft, it's squishy, it holds vital organs and a deep wound there is usually fatal without good medical attention.

Yeah, it was pretty sexy, if you're into bleeding chicks and knives.

Iron Arm Swarmlord kills the Daemon Prince and then beats up Abaddon.

Iron arm gives eternal warrior, so your sword does nothing.

lucius the eternal. Lilith kills him, turns into him and he keeps fighting

And then the Swarmlord one shots Lucius, and as the Swarmlord is emotionless and protected by the full force of the hive mind anyway, he's not coming back.

I thought the killer had to take some pride in the kill or something, even if just for a fleeting moment.

Not too sure in all honesty.

You need to take pride in killing Lucius for him to become you. Pride, like all emotions, does not exist amongst Tyranids.

And the Hive Mind is quite likely stronger than the Chaos Gods, as it is the collection of twelve galaxies of flesh, and bone, and thought, while the Chaos Gods are facets of the emotions of a single galaxy. Slaanesh is not overpowering that.

Was it "good" bleeding (a few little weepy scratches) or "bad" bleeding (someone being strangled with their own intestines)?

It was a black library publication, what do you think? :p

Any Old Necron with Mindshackle Scarabs. 3+ invul for Lilith who wounds him on 6's. 2+ armour for everyone else. Swarmlord you say? Mindshackle scarabs, 50% of the time you are hitting yourself and if you dont have iron arm (16% of the time???) you just killed yourself. Otherwise its just a wound or two, followed up by a wound by the warscythe. Say you reach some bad luck and fail test twice (25%) then the swarmy is dead. If not there is an OK chance to survive swarmies attacks back, then you die to minshackle. LOL Not as invincible as you thought ay?

I thought we were going by fluff. If so, draigo stomps REALLY hard.

If not, however, then the Swarmlord wins if and only if he gets iron arm.

Pre heresy Lucius FTW
