<h2><strong>Let the gladiator games begin</strong></h2>
<h2><strong> </strong><span style="font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal;">I am a gladiator, i glide with no fear, i fight and kill to entertain. I spill blood and never spare a soul, just to please the crowd.</span></h2>
<p>What drives and motivates me is far beyond me, energy, power and anger feeds my vein. The fear on the face of my enemy, gives me hope, the shout of the spectators play on like a sweet song, the rhythm propels my soul. I hold my sword in anticipation.</p>
<p>The movement of the sharp blade spells doom, when i step into the arena, the world outside exist no more, my lungs is filled with the air of rage, my heart pumps vengance, while my soul yarns for victory.</p>
<p>Being a gladiator is not my will, but fate and destiny has transformed me into one. At night i try to sneak away from this constant reality, by going into a deep trance because just a sleep will not do the trick.</p>
<p>In trance i see hips of bodies, river of blood and perceive a thick smell of rotten flesh, then i begin to realize how far my sword has gone. The mighty have fallen, the strong has been made weak, while i wallow in the euphoria of this mind intoxicating feeling.</p>
<p>Right inside my soul, i hear voices , very strange voices that keeps ringing bells in my head, which always wake me up to the consciousness i hate to see.<br />
I am a gladiator, the one who does not what he pleases but what pleases the world.</p>
<p>I no longer listen to that compassionate side of my heart, instead i let the devil control every beat of my heart. Like red wine , blood flows from the edge of my beautiful but dangerous sword, it pours down like rain to soak the earth and quench the thirst of evil and hatred.</p>
<p>Frivolously i am beginning to accept my new found status, no one should blame me because my heart, spirit and soul have been invaded and conscripted into that of a <strong>&#8220;GLADIATOR GAMES&#8221;</strong></p>

<h2>The Gladiators from <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladiator">wikipedia</a></h2>
<p>The trade in gladiators was Empire-wide, and subjected to official supervision. Rome&#8217;s military success produced an influx of soldier-prisoners who were redistributed for use in State mines or amphitheatres and for sale on the open market. For example, in the aftermath of the Jewish Revolt, the gladiator schools received an influx of Jews – those rejected for training would have been sent straight to the arenas as <em>noxii</em>.<sup id="cite_ref-45"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladiator#cite_note-45">[46]</a></sup> The best – the most robust – were sent to Rome. The granting of slave status to soldiers who had surrendered or allowed their own capture was regarded as an unmerited gift of life and gladiator training was an opportunity for them to regain their honour in the <em>munus</em>.<sup id="cite_ref-46"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladiator#cite_note-46">[47]</a></sup></p>

<p><em><a title="Pollice Verso" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollice_Verso">Pollice Verso</a></em> (&#8220;With a Turned Thumb&#8221;), an 1872 painting by <a title="Jean-Léon Gérôme" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-L%C3%A9on_G%C3%A9r%C3%B4me">Jean-Léon Gérôme</a>, is a well known <a title="History painting" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_painting">historical painter&#8217;s</a> researched conception of a gladiatorial combat.</p>

<p>Two other sources of gladiators, found increasingly during the Principate and the <a title="Pax Romana" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pax_Romana">Pax Romana</a>, were slaves condemned to the arena, to gladiator schools or games (<em>ad ludum gladiatorium</em>)<sup id="cite_ref-47"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladiator#cite_note-47">[48]</a></sup> as punishment for crimes, and paid volunteers (<em>auctorati</em>) who by the late Republic may have comprised approximately half – and possibly the most capable half – of all gladiators.<sup id="cite_ref-48"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladiator#cite_note-48">[49]</a></sup> The use of volunteers had a precedent in the Iberian <em>munus</em> of <a title="Scipio Africanus" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scipio_Africanus">Scipio Africanus</a>; but none of those had been paid.<sup id="cite_ref-Futrell.2C_8-9_17-1"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladiator#cite_note-Futrell.2C_8-9-17">[18]</a></sup> For Romans, &#8220;gladiator&#8221; would have meant a schooled fighter, sworn and contracted to a master.</p>
<p>For those who were poor or non-citizens, the gladiator schools offered a trade, regular food, housing of sorts and a fighting chance of fame and fortune. Gladiators customarily kept their prize money and any gifts they received. <a title="Tiberius" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tiberius">Tiberius</a> offered some retired gladiators 100,000 <em>sesterces</em> for a return to the arena.<sup id="cite_ref-49"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladiator#cite_note-49">[50]</a></sup> <a title="Nero" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nero">Nero</a> gave the gladiator Spiculus property and residence &#8220;equal to those of men who had celebrated triumphs.&#8221; <sup id="cite_ref-50"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladiator#cite_note-50">[51]</a></sup> <a title="Mark Antony" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Antony">Mark Antony</a> promoted gladiators to his personal guard.<sup id="cite_ref-Futrell.2C_129:_citing_Dio_51-0"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladiator#cite_note-Futrell.2C_129:_citing_Dio-51">[52]</a></sup></p>
