[@Scarifar] Thinking of your character I should also mention that the Arena fights are open for all the prisoners to watch. It adds a bit of excitement to there lives and being able to fight and get better circumstances for themselves gives them hope so they'll be less likely to revolt. Bread and Circuses.

Pity we're just gonna leave the prison, but that's what I imagine my backstory to be like.

Depending on how this goes a number of us could end up back at the rebuilt Center.

* A question for the GM - can I assume that Manuel is used frequently in the arena to test out new metas, because of his meta ability? Can I also assume that because of that, Manuel has some renown and influence in the prison, extensive combat experience and possibly the first meta most new inmates encounter in the facility (when they're tested in the arena)?

The Arena fights are voluntary but during the "training" time the mutants get to hone there powers Manuel could easily be roped into being a teacher, and by that I mean a punching bag for Metas who can't control their powers. I mean the guy can't die after all so.
