==Magic==

Healing magic does exist. It's expensive, slow, and sometimes ineffective (leading to well known old injuries), but it exists. Resurrection magic doesn't, though.

On the plus side, there's a well known "curse" custom made for all who fight in gladiatorial conditions (among other things): Known as "The Blessed Curse", it prevents the cursed from doing any lasting damage while active[1]. But accidents do happen, even with this layer of protection.

[1] Why, yes, it does sees a lot of use outside the Sporting world, usually for training. There are also other uses of the curse. That's all we're going to say about it, though, for subtly obvious reasons.

And yes, there are combat wizards among all three branches of the Sport. They usually are required to either fight each other, or at a handicap, since most Promotions view Magic (besides the Blessed Curse) as an Outside Weapon.

Other curses, blessings, spells, and so on exist, but, for the purposes of this discussion, are usually used as a handicap. Curse removal is surprisingly cheap, but only if you know what curse was used.
