'''Marcus''' is a human [[fighter]] and [[gladiator]] in the [[Gurubashi Arena|Arena]] of [[Stranglethorn Vale]]. He is a male human of about 45 years. He was once encountered by a group of escaping adventurers. It occured during a battle outside, the shockwave were damaging portions of the structure causing plaster from of the roof to drop. Marcus wasn't looking for a fight, and told them to get the hell out before the trolls came back. He noticed that a few of the escapees were carrying extra weapons, and asked for one, and let them know their were children trapped further down the hall. Marcus helped free children, and ran towards the stairs to escape before the ceiling collapsed.<ref>''[[Lands of Conflict]]'', pg. 128</ref>

Caimas the Pit Master yells: I'm afraid your friend won't be waking up any time soon. I always sedate my croc's food. I hate to see them struggle with their meal.
Caimas the Pit Master yells: But perhaps I will make an exception for you. Let the crocs out! IT'S FEEDING TIME!

Caimas the Pit Master yells: Bah! Mere luck! My pets will make mincemeat out of you yet!
Two crocs spawn.

Caimas is a level 83 elite with 644,000 health. This is a fight based primarily on kiting. Have him run over Croc Eggs to slow him down and deal some damage over time. Keep running him over croc eggs as the "Tiny Teeth!" debuff does not last forever... Caimas has no other moves outside of basic melee, which hits for ~4-4.5k on plate, upwards of 6k on cloth.

When he is eventually killed, Tahet wakes up:

Tahet says: I... *cough* I owe you my life, stranger. Thank you.

Objective complete, fly back up to the Akhenet Fields to speak with the vizier.
