Free bump, on account of how much fun I had at tonight's Grinstone.

If you haven't attended yet, I urge you to at least stop by as a spectator if not a combatant ;D

Ha, I ended up going completely on a whim actually; almost missed the starting lineup. Apparently, Sophia is a fan favorite! Probably for her absurd aggression against any and everyone bigger than she is (which is pretty much everyone at the Grindstone lol). I'll have to get her there more often, a few people have said they missed her in the past few weeks she hasn't attended.

This FRIDAY, 2/25/14 @ 10 PM EST the Closed Tournament for the Grindstone will have its first trial run. The roster is open to individuals who:

-Have participated in one Grindstone event on Saturdays
-Have been invited by an Overseer or has challenged/been challenged by an Overseer to a trial duel.

The trial duel will be an inspection of how realistically you use your more advanced character techniques to assure that there will be no conflict in the official tournament. You will be evaluated by your Overseer and you -must- be open to constructive criticism and improvement. If you are denied, you are free to reschedule and attempt entry again.

There are a few changes:


1. In order to participate in the Closed Tournament you MUST fulfill both of the above requirements.


2. The Closed Tournament will track the wins/losses of all its fighters for in character purposes.


3. Enhancement magic and abilities -ARE- allowed (i.e. chakra, fortification, speed increase, dragon soul, beast within, bardic songs, etc. etc.)


4. Healing is still -NOT- allowed.


5. Offensive magic is tentative.


6. Firearms, non-lethal poisons, and other accessory weapons or substances with temporary effects (blinding powder, etc.) are allowed.


7. Assistance from any individual or summon (faeries, carbuncle, egi, etc.) is strictly prohibited.


8. Fighters MUST be capable of restraining themselves. If necessary, wards will be applied to the fights to prevent potentially devastating moves to have lethal effects, but in essence the fighters must be disciplined.

---

The outlines above are subject to change as necessary.

Ah. I wasn't aware of a thread for this! Now I know. *Weep*

I'm that one guy that often turns up with Sophia. And hasn't won once yet. *Weep moar*

At the midnight hour, she cried more, more, more.

Maybe the three of you can get together! That'd be pretty adorable.

So, I know how fighters sign up. What are the requirements for healers though?

You just show up and ask for an Overseer! They'll almost always happily sign you on. We've got a shortage of healers.

Its why Denn stopped showing up. Too many broken people left in her path and not enough healers to kiss their boo boo's better.

I may be at the next Friday - but I will certainly be at the next Saturday.

Coming in hot!  Get me some people for Asha to punch in the face!

~I was shown the past and the fall of an Era - but my real concern is what I will do when this drink is finished

I'm torn on bringing my Hyur to the next one. But I had fun on Menelwen last time.

Hng. Choices, choices.
