    I guess we might as well hear what the next deal is before starting the stabbing.

    Can we watch? (More importantly apply puppet.) Can we identify the potential opponents before hand? Can we send a golem in instead? (Losing a golem isn't really an issue. What are the rules for winning? Presumably not a fight to the death. Considering we have beaten Alide one on one with minimal preparation this seems emenently winnable although I don't quite trust it.

    We have to be very careful here.

    Quint says we need to win three fights to progress, not just do three fights in total, so that means if this goes poorly we could lose a bunch of people


    Before we agree to anything we should clarify the rules. What kind of fight is this? For all we know this could be a cum battle.

    Also it seems that we have to choose the fighter before knowing more about our opponent. So I am not really convinced this is a good offer.

    Yeah, a clarification on the rules seems necessary before we commit to anything. I doubt these are fights to the death given Quincy's interests, but the fact that these are supposedly fighters means this will be combat. And what's the rule on buffing our combatant before entering the ring, is that an option? Also, the potential issue with sending golems to scout is that we might not be able to fight the same opponent twice.

    Their names could provide hints as to their personality and/or abilities, but they could also be ironic. For example, there's Mini, who might be named that because she's small, but might also be very large for comedic effect. It might be best just to pick ones we want to see if we can't make predictions. I for one want to see Candy (is she literally made of candy?), Queen (could either be a former queen who is now a slave or is a 'queen' as in dominatrix), and Feather (maybe a winged type, even an angel?).

    We should also consider who our best solo fighters are. Lemiel is probably our most reliable given her strong physical and magical abilities plus healing. Cherchiel is an absolute powerhouse if we give her the right equipment loadout. Sally's mirror shield + gimp suit combo will make her a real nightmare to take down. Yulia and Talwa have the firepower to potentially atomize their opponents, but a bad matchup would lose them the match. Beck is unkillable, but her lacking mental faculties could be used against her. Isalia, Lri, and Maple all shine best in group battles, so I don't think we should send any of them out. Goma's fighting ability is rooted entirely in Puppet, if it doesn't work she's done. Dahlia's Fetish Call would probably be useful, it exploits fetishes and Quincy has probably given a few to the fighters he's trained, but I'm not 100% confident on how she'd do.

    TLDR: We hear the rules first, but our best picks for fighters are probably Lemiel, Cherchiel, Sally, and Talwa, and there's not much we can do about picking out the right opponents.

    Quincy: Hello friends! The rules are simple. You pick a name from the list, you pick a fighter on your side. Both will be revealed to the other and then you can make your plans for the fight. Buffing is fine, sure why not. It'll help offset the massive debuff you'll be getting anyway...

    That wasn't really that helpful. Still don't know what the nature of the fight or win condition is. If nothing else is forthcoming, let's send in a golem buffed up as much as we can (with spells and things we can generate, can golems use demonic items directly?) so we can see what happens.

    Hmm..could it be that there are actually different disciplines and the name is a hint towards what that would be?

    ...

    Probably not.

    Anyways, the Golem strat sounds fine. Doesn't seem like anything is preventing us from just throwing Golems at the problem either, so we can just chugging them at the fighters. Even if they don't win we get intel about what the fighters about
