The Arena (Part 1)

Remember the Gray Prince? Just before you come up to him, there's an archer, and to his left is a door. Go into it and turn right. Speak to the red guy there at the end.

He'll insult you a bit, but you'll get to choose what armor you wear in the Arena--Light or Heavy Raiment. You have to wear this armor every time you want to fight--you can't go in with uber-good armor. No, no. You can, however, choose your own shield, helmet, and weapon.

Also, looting your opponent's body is strictly forbidden.

So take your pick, light or heavy, then tell him you're ready for a match. He'll tell you to get to the red room, so leave that room, turn left, and go until you see a sort of birdbath with pools of red around it. This is the way. Head on up the ramp.

Your first fight is very generic, but will generally be tailored as level-ready, sort of like the loot in a dungeon. It'll be what the game considers "appropriate" for someone of your level to fight. Mine was someone with just a sword, yours will likely be the same.

Just swat 'em 'til they're dead, then head back. Remember that birdbath? You can heal yourself by using it after a battle.

Your reward will be 50 gold.

You can continue to gain fame even after you complete this line of quests, so I won't bother to say exactly how much fame you're going to get. If you completed the Thieves Guild quest first, completing the Arena should give you enough fame so people will react less badly to you.
