Pitting

Pitting is a blood sport in which a human is placed into a fighting to either kill or incapacitate an animal like a dog, pig, goat, big cat, wolf, etc with their bare hands, teeth, feet, and weapons in some circles although uncommon. Despite how illegal it is, the sport is rampant throughout the kingdom. It is considered more of a "lower-class" style of entertainment due to the brutality of it, but nobles and knights have been seen frequenting certain matches.

In the cities or towns, one might find pitting in a basement, a warehouse, or barn. Fights are much more open in the country side with fights often happening in the open air in village centers or farm fields.

Rounds last for 3 minutes then the handlers are tasked to pull the fighters apart to their respective corners for the next round. Rounds continue until one of the fighters is down as in cannot fight any longer, leaves the ring, or refuses to fight. Respective handlers are not allowed to physically interfere while a referee and timekeeper watch on.

Restraints, although not always used, are placed on either man or animal or both in the beginning of the match to make the animal more aggressive. However, when the crowd is hot for blood, all restraints are removed and they go at each other until one is dead and/or unable to fight anymore.

There have been several notable legendary fighters in the sport:
 * Medusa - A 12-time champion female Bordeau Hound that killed 6 people, 4 dogs, and 2 pigs.
 * Brower "Puff Puff" Adakosvky - a 18-time champion from the Maschev Colonies who stood at 5'8 weighed 330 lbs. His kill list was 14 dogs, 2 saber cats, 1 wild boar, and 1 bear (allegedly).
