 ===The Pit===
-Owner - One, One, Zero & Zero, Zero, One. Both are [[Bynar]].
+The Pit is a rough-and-tumble facility, a bar with a fighting ring as centerpiece. There are multiple pits where contestants descend to face the occupants of a different pit in unarmed physical combat via holographic simulation, to the cheers and jeers of the other patrons.
-*They have a small tech staff made up of another pair of Bynars.
-*They have 2 rooms. Each room has 2 pods and a control station that monitors the 2 pods. A pod is the holographic chamber in which one opponent stands while fighting the opponent in the other pod.
+While the entire thing is perfectly legal (and surprisingly safe), the ambiance of such goes out of its way to imply that neither is true. The rarely-seen [[Bynar]] owners have even requested that Federation personnel do not attend in uniform, as it sends quite the wrong message to the attendees.
-Here's the conceit of how it works: The 'pits' exist in pairs. Whatever is in one is holographically simulated in the other. Each person is fighting a hologram of the other. The holograms are not exact; the lag manages to be outside of perception, and there are calculations being done to ensure the blows that actually land are safe ones. It will not cut off breath or circulation, it will abort if someone's life signs waiver, and there's always someone watching able to manually abort if necessary. They can also simulate a false opponent if necessary, but the fun matches are the VS matches.
