The year 2030 has seen some drastic leaps with technology. The world has become more advanced in many ways. But in one role it has changed the most. Sports. Not all sports have changed, in fact only really one has changed. Fighting. Fighting sports have reached the new era of machines. With robots doing all the pummeling. Due to the large demand for more violence, yet less injures. People have been replaced by lean mean fighting machines.
Originally boxing bots were the most popular. Since they were the easiest to create. But over time other styles have been introduced like; Karate, Taekwondo and Muay Thai. Even grappling styles like Judo and Ekido have had robots made for them.
Competitions were soon broadcasted over the world, and the sport became a phenomenon. With many people wanting to get into the business. World championships were created for different fighting styles. Boxing was the most popular again, since it was the first. But MMA robot fights soon caught up. Many people paid good money to see these world events.
But it wasn't only pro events that began. Soon the underworld became lined with fights. Obviously the fights were different, with a little number of rules and mass modifications to each competitors robot. Mostly they were just Dog fights that had no rules but maximum brutality. But a very common and interesting underground fight is Drikfight's. These are normal fights but they only have one rule, and that rule is decided through a pack of cards. One card is picked at random and on that card there will be a technique. Neither fighter can use that technique or they are disqualified. That is the one and only rule of Drikfighting.
(Please include a small character sheet. You don't need one for your robot, but by all means please feel free to include one)
