I have to contribute a little arena death match report here.
A mindflayer (ilithid? Don't remember the exact Dom2 name) prophet (computer controlled), made it to the final, along with a Mother of Nature pretender (player).
The mindflayer bLasted the Mother of Nature, stunning her, but doing no real damage. After running out of mind bLasts (ammo: 10), it tried a few spells and then closed in to use it's weapon on the paralyzed Mother. After some time of one-way melee, the Mother decided to rout, despite having taken very little damage still. Being paralyzed however, she could not run away, and even though it each turn said that she was routing, the battle continued, with her being paralyzed while the mindflayer desperately tried to cut her down to size. After a few more turns of this, the mindflayer routs (apparently for no other reason than being frustrated at the futility of it all, or perhaps the prospect of being eventually trampled, should the Mother ever cease to be paralyzed).
In the end, the Mother was declared the winner, because the mindflayer ran off.
It was all rather amusing,..
