Mystic Runestone
The System: The combat for Mystic Runestone is the tried and true method used in other competitions and your average duel. Through the use of the <Shell Necklace> mages can fight without worry of the debilitating effects of their spells. This is not your brawlers bloodbath, but a true artists competition to test new spells and powers. Taking into account the lore that mage classes have a far higher magic defense and access to protective spells, defensive emotes can be quite imaginative from a simple Shell spell to protect your own <Shell Necklace> layers, or even countering a fireball by transposing or reversing it. Though the Runestone is purely magical, hybrid classes -can- attend but must fight without physical attacks. Handcasters and Bladecasters shall be allowed to participate, though this may change if problems arise. Combat is broken down into a few simple steps. 1) Both opponents will agree to use either a http://www.rolz.org room or the /random feature for their match. 2) Both opponents roll initiative. The highest roll wins and attacks first. 3) The attacking player writes their post in a custom emote using /em. After posting, they roll their die. 4) The defending player rolls their die to defend. If the defender rolls higher than the attack, they have successfully avoided damage. A lower roll means they have been struck. In the event of a tie, reroll both attack and defense. Regardless, after determining the result, the defender then posts their /emote to show the effect. 5) Switch roles and repeat. The defender is now on the offensive and the attacker is defending. 6) First person to win three contests wins the match. (Credit to the Grindstone page for the duel write up.) Manor Dorn: To find the tournament, please seek entrance to Dorn Manor, located in the Goblet, Ward 3, North Subdivision, Address 35. Upon finding the blue braziers you have arrived. Doors shall open to spectators and combatants at 6pm.(EST) And the competition at 7pm (EST) every Sunday.There is a cafe and lounge for mages between matches and spectators, as there is limited room. Entrances shall be cut off after a solid number has been reached. |

Saint Reymanaud's Cathedral opens its doors to outsiders yet again as two key questions to living the good life that The Fury has offered unto us are to be answered. Father Lacordaire of the Black Sun Covenant, once more, will offer himself as a vessel to Her word so that Ishgardian and foreigner alike can know with utmost clarity what it means to be a true follower of Halone, and what is expected of any loyal citizen of The Holy See. |

Saint Reinette’s University and Orphanage Presents:
Annual Jazz Ball What is it? Last year the university founded itself with a Manor, and proceeded to host the most extravagent of formal shindigs. This process continued through the year, the school offering various other public dances. This will be the final major public event the school offers before the Stormblood expansion. Show up for a formal dance, take part in the prize giveaway, the bar for you wallflowers, and enjoy hours of handpicked music to be streamed via a third-party site. When is it? The Jazz Ball will occur on Sunday, April 23rd at 5 PM EDT. This is 9 PM UK time. The dance will go on for roughly two to three hours. Where is it? Located in our Manor in the Lavender beds, in ward two Plot 33. You can arrive via the Dappled Stalls Subdivision atheryte crystal. The Basement of the University is where the ballroom is located; but the entire manor is available for those who wish to step away from the party, see the classroom or simply get away from the crowd. Additional Information: The Jazz Ball is a formal venue. Please dress semi-formal for such an event, this means not showing up in armor, or being scantily clad. If so, you will be asked to leave until you can return in a more proper outfit. The musical accompaniment for the dance will be Jazz music, lounge music (As featured in Vegas), Swing, some blues, Electric Swing, and whatever else we feel like adding. If you have any questions, feel free to contact myself, Higura Gainishigi ingame, or here on the RPC. If you wish to assist with any of the Dance organization, I am accepting a little help, so feel free to contact me if you’ve interest in assisting. |
