The Spellstone Tournament


Recommended Posts

Last sennight we found ourselves hosting another record-breaker, a whopping 36 participants! We'd like to thank our attendees for their patience that eve - the sudden attendance jump admittedly caught us unprepared! Regardless of such, attendees were more than happy to compete for fame, for gil, and for Fuzzy - a lesser panda that followed one of our staff home from Hingashi!

This eve we were treated to a real delight - match after match of elegant, dexterous dance moves, interwoven with bursts of magic! I'Shanna Bhen of the Bridge Bracket deftly maneuvered her way to the finals, against Tracy Powell! Tracy - a two time champion - utilized experimental carbuncles and aetheric constructs to great effect in their previous matches! However, despite their limitless creativity and talent, there is little to be done to defeat an opponent you can barely land a blow on, even as they blast you with magic - and thus I'Shanna won the eve!

Please congratulate our most recent champion, I'Shanna Bhen, who happily gave Fuzzy a good home, and took it all in Episode XLIX: Dancer's Dominance!

Last sennight 20 mages made their way out to Fesca's Wash to compete for glory, for knowledge, for pride - and for gil and flowers!

The final match of the eve culminated in a clash between two titans - Chia Everbright and Tracy Powell tested the extent of their magical mastery against each other - and for a time, neither of them could gain the upper hand! Spell met spell, their prowess equally matched as Chia's overwhelming might competed with Tracy's creative magics, leaving the two in a contest of endurance! But as with all such contests, one eventually had to give, and it seemed that both did! They went blow for blow, for a time, Tracy's otter construct proving as effective as it was creative - before finally, Tracy came out on top! It was a show to be marveled at and we hope to see both of them back in future installments!

Please congratulate Tracy Powell on their third Championship, netting themselves an array of flowers donated by a Gridanian florist, as well as the title of Episode L: Brain vs Brawn!

Last sennight we welcomed a total of 21 mages to Fesca's Wash to compete for gil, for glory, for pride, and for a unique coat modeled after Allagan fashion!

The final match of the eve culminated in a most unlikely matchup - teacher met student head on when Kattyne Aeris found herself paired against her teacher, Anhe Dulain, prompting an unexpected exam! Anhe had shown the extent of her magical gift the entirety of the eve, laying opponent after opponent low by the hand of her Elementalism! Yet Kattyne's own resourcefulness and versatility would not be denied - aetheric blades launched to and fro, in between bouts of wind magic! Though both fought with the enthusiasm that's to be expected of mages whom know eachother, it'd seem Kattyne earned a passing grade!

Please congratulate our newest Champion, Kattyne Aeris, who overcame her very own headmistress and claimed the eve in Episode LI; Graduation Ceremony!

Please congratulate our newest champion - Drith Buduga, who took the eve in Episode LII; Earth vs Sky!

Last eve we welcomed 12 mages (It almost seemed as if the vast majority of our usual participants were elsewhere, for some inexplicable reason - as if there were some pressing, star-rending matter that needed attended to.) to Fesca's Wash to compete for gil, glory, and a one-of-a-kind rapier!

The eve culminated in a match between Tracy Powell and Silya Cordwyk, both masters in their respective arts!

After a long and grueling match, Silya Cordwyk overcame Tracy, netting the evening in Episode LIII; Distant Participants!

Last sennight we welcomed 19 mages out to Fesca's Wash to compete for a luxurious cash prize - one million gil!

The competition was fierce, and the eve culminated in a clash betwixt wielders of two aged arts - Aedremor Cronqvist, a master of Old-style Conjury, and Izea Dzemael, a wielder of Allagan Summoning! Despite their similarly regal appearances, only one could come out on top, and after a long, drawn out clash of wits, dramatic prose, and spells, Izea came out on top!


Please congratulate our newest champion, Izea Dzemael, who claimed the eve in Episode LIV; Clash of the Counts!

Last sennight we welcomed a cozy 15 mages out to Fesca's Wash to compete for gil, glory, and unusual orchestrion roll that simply screams 'LA-HEE'.

The eve's competition was fierce, culminating in a match between two Viera - Ylja Leskreta and Miriam Gale, wearing clashing attire of scarlet and deep azure! As always though, there could only be one winner, despite the two's boundless determination and tenacity!

Please congratulate our newest champion, Miriam Gale, who claimed victory, the gil, and the weird orchestrion roll in Episode LV: Red Vs Blue!

Last Sennight we welcomed 16 Mages to Fesca's Wash to compete for Gil, Glory, and a cute dog that followed one of our staff home in Kugane! Despite their best efforts, Buster's owner couldn't be found - likely a stray, and as such, we saw fit to find him a better home! And what better home for him than that of a talented mage?

As always, the competition was fierce, but two mages stood head and shoulder above their peers - Tracy Powell and Rilae Shadeflare found themselves in the finale for the eve, clashing heads to claim Buster for their own! Tracy would not be denied however, and overcame Rilae with finesse!

Please congratulate this week's champion, Tracy Powell, who is now tied with Olivae Svenay for the most Spellstone Tournament wins at a staggering four wins each! Congratulations on your victory in Episode LVI: Rising Star, Tracy!!

Last sennight we played host to a pleasant 19 mages out at Fesca's Wash, to compete for Gil, Glory, and a primal-themed weapon, painstakingly crafted by one of our on-staff artisans in the image of Ravana!

The competition was fierce as always, but we found ourselves watching a dark horse entry - Krie Arda, a new face! Wielding magics of Limsan Arcanists, they showed that mastering the fundamentals can take one a long, long way!

Please congratulate our newest Champion, Krie Arda, who overcame wielders of much more complex magic to claim their spot as the champion in Episode LVII: Back to Basics!

Last sennight we welcomed a happy 23 mages out to Fesca's Wash to compete for Gil, glory, and our last non-holiday Sur-prize!

The evening's matches culminated in a clash between miss Suisei Asashio, a newcomer to our humble event, and Najila El'Azah! Suisei employed a unique type of carbuncle to great effect, clashing with Najila's spells like she were a seasoned mage of many, many summers! But all winning streaks must come to an end, and Suisei found herself on the receiving end of a humbling!

Please congratulate our newest Champion, Najila El'Azah, who took the eve and an unusual orchestion roll in Episode LVIII: Reticent Reproach!

Last sennight we welcomed but 12 mages out to Fesca's Wash to compete for knowledge, for glory, and for gil! T'would seem a rather popular show was being held, as we later learned!

The eve was a quiet one as a result, but no less fierce - with less competition, every single participant present gave it their all to maximize their chances of claiming victory! Standing head and shoulders above the rest however was a dear friend of two staff - Fox Veron! Deftly mixing the arts of Far Eastern Ninjutsu and Red Magic, Fox toppled foe after foe, before facing off against a regular attendee - Ylja Leskreta! Her mastery of Sharlayan Astrology is second to none, and as the two clashed, Fox found himself pushed to his limits, putting his all into what appeared to be a heavily-accelerated VerHoly! With such a stunning display, Fox claimed the eve!

Please congratulate our newest champion, Fox Veron, who netted the title and proved how far his magical studies have come in Episode LIX; Rise of a Hero!

((I'd like to begin this entry with an apology for the two week delay. A number of real life events left me unable to offer a timely update - I'll be making two posts today to catch up.))

Two sennights ago, we welcomed 15 mages out to Fesca's Wash to compete for practice, for skill, and for gil! As always, only one could go home a winner!

The competition that eve was... Strikingly different than our usual ferocity, with experienced participants indulging a budding mage - Chatata Chata, in practice matches to further her skill! T'was a heartwarming sight to behold, Chatata's blossoming bubblemancy showing great promise for development, and t'was not long before she found herself in the finale! Had she been let win? Of course not - for victory does not always go to those with the most might, but often to those with the most potential for growth!

Her opponent, (Whose name we'll be omitting so that this isn't a public smear) however, did not seem willing to indulge her, bringing out all the stops to secure victory... Stops that resulted in a disqualification in the finale, much to the chagrin of our staff. We'd like to take this moment to remind our participants and spectators alike that this is a tournament of MAGIC, and that if you want to use physical or alchemical means to give yourself an advantage, you will be disqualified, as per the rules we announce at the beginning of the tourney each week. On that note - please refrain from throwing literal fireworks to try and distract your opponents - it isn't difficult.

Our gripes with the finale aside, we'd like to congratulate our newest champion Chatata Chata, who we well and truly feel earned their victory, bringing their all to bear and showing their potential for growth in Episode LX; Bubble and Pink!

Last sennight we welcomed a humble 15 mages out to Fesca's Wash to compete for gil, for skill, and for... Something that also rhymes with gil! Regardless of our writer's lack of catchy words, only one could go home a winner!

The eve's finale found itself to a pair of rising stars - Elatus Shadeflare and Krie Arda faced off for the title! Elatus found herself utilizing illusory magic to set multiple copies of herself clashing against Krie's Arcanima and Carbuncle! Runic barriers blocked fiery blasts, and flurries of spells kept the arcanimist on their toes, if not on their back foot! Despite things seeming bleak for Krie, it'd seem that a strong enough grasp on the basics can set one worlds apart from natural savants!

Please congratulate Krie Arda on their second Spellstone championship, displaying that as with all things, the key to magical might is Episode LXI; Mastery of the Fundamentals!

((It has been some time since we last updated this thread, so the following posts will be the absolute bare minimum while we catch up. I'd like to apologize for the month-long delay, life has kept me busy enough that I quite literally could not spare the time to sit down and write these up. To anyone who keeps track of these, I sincerely apologize.))

This week we welcomed a cozy 17 mages out to Fesca's Wash to compete for gil, for glory, for clout and for the crown!

Throughout the evening we were treated to a number of wondrous clashes, from bouts between lovers to clashes between ice and levin alike - but the eve's finale may have taken the cake! A clash between Haruhi Asashio, who bested her own wife - in a rather saucy exchange, I may add - to claim her spot in the finals, and Kupori Popori ((Carbuncle Plushy oocly)) whose devotion to their carbuncle companions and wondrous teamwork once again brought them to the finale! The two clashed for some time, with Haruhi utilizing her mastery of Darkness to the fullest, and Kupori unleashing their numerous carbuncles in various ways in an attempt to overwhelm Haruhi! Despite Haruhi attempting to take control of the carbuncles, Kupori's endless surge of carbuncles would not be stopped, and after a long, intense clash, the match was set!

Please congratulate Kupori Popori ((Carbuncle Plushy)) for their third Spellstone victory, showing that there is merit to quantity as well as quality in Episode LXV; Carbuncle Army!
