Items & Weapons
The Axe of Assassination
This medieval weapon slices and dices, and when your opponent has less than 25% health, you can start chopping off their arms.
The Tennis Ball Launcher of Lunacy
Fully automatic and air cooled, this bad boy launches tennis balls that even Andre couldn't return.
The Diabolic Dynamite
This item was once used to blast through the earth for mining. Now, you can use it to blast through your opponents. Throw it at an opponent with less than 20% health, and laugh maniacally as their legs get blown away. Careful though, this thing has a short fuse.
The Crossbow of Catastrophe
This ancient weapon was once a revolutionary war innovation. Now, considering all the belt fed, fully automatic rifles the military employs, it's pretty useless - but in the Deathmatch Arena it is a fun way to get your point across.
The Bazooka of Barbarity
It's a bit like swatting a fly with a sledgehammer, but in the Deathmatch Arena there's no such thing as overdoing it. Hit an opponent with less than 25% health if you think they no longer need their arms.
The Blunderbuss of Brutality
This ancient turkey hunting weapon is now a staple of Deathmatch entertainment. Careful though, these guns were made before they invented recoil buffers.
The Crate of Calamity
What good is a video game without some box in it. So here you go.
The Chainsaw of Cruelty
TIMMMBERRR!!!! If you want to hack up your opponent into a bloody stump that barely resembles a 2200 polygon figure anymore, this is the tool for you. It starts the chopping once your opponent is below 30% health.
The All Day Spa
Cures celebrity health by 10%.
The Nose Job and Tummy Tuck
Cures celebrity health by 25%.
The Jackson Special
Restores celebrities to full health and regenerates all dismembered limbs.
Feng Shui Facsimile
The celebrity rids their mind of distracting and negative thoughts and mentally reorganizes. The celebrity can now focus on the alleviation of pain from the body and takes less damage from their opponent.
The RS Injection
A concoction of green tea leaves, LA smog, and the mad cow virus, this scientifically engineered substance temporarily enhances a celebrity's strength.
Speed Boost
This stuff gives you wings. Once taken, a celebrity absorbs enough caffeine to make a quadruple shot of espresso seem like a glass of dirty water.
The Ex-Clay-Mation Point
This magical wonder frees the inner-child of the celebrity from its worldly confines, thus allowing more meaningful relationships, a broader understanding of self and the ability to transcend time and space. Oh, it also makes your celeb's attacks unblockable.
