To define gladiators further, there are two major varieties of enslaved gladiators: those owned by the city/sorcerer-king, and those owned privately, by nobles, templars, or merchant houses. Of course, there are always the slaves of unimportant, poorer men, some of whom are pressed into service as gladiators. Few of these slaves survive their first combat; those that do typically bring huge amounts of wealth to their owner, who is then able to afford the high expenses for his or her prize gladiator.
