OOC: Okay, I'm going to take some liberties b/c I'm a leader-type and can do that, as there seems to be a general lack of activity all of a sudden. I'm making the feast appear out of nowhere, so let's all just assume we broke out the provisions. If anyone has a real desire to cook something, feel free, but for the rest of us, we can go ahead and get started!

BIC: **Crosses his arms, gazing at the troops around him, pride gleaming in his eyes. He turns to Favre with a look that clearly says he is going to have his way no matter what, and speaks so that all can hear his deep, rumbling voice** I am hearby issuing the order that the casks are to be opened and the best of everything brought out. Drinks, cheeses (we got those from a raid several months ago, and they are fabulous, let me tell you!), breads, fish if anybeast can catch them quickly, anything you think you might want! **Motions to the larger store-tent where there is a sudden flurry of activity as beasts hurry to bring out everything and lay it all out on a tent that has been laid on the ground to serve as a dort of picnic blanket. Kinnan takes one of his over-sized goblets, fills it with his own string wine, and raises it above his head** Here's to Quanshaire, the best bloody Merc patrol there is! **Drains his goblet and wipes the wine off his lips with the back of his paw**

**An arctic vixen stands off to the side, watching everyone from under the hood of her burnoose, arms crossed under it [the burnoose]. A staff is strapped to a cross-belt, leather, buckled across her back. Has wrist-blades on, but they cannot be seen. Is quite small with the fur white to match the coming winter. Face is hidden under the hood of the burnoose, but her posture is straight and she seems to be sure of herself. She just watching quietly, her eyes wondering over each and ever beast and seeing what they are doing.**

**It is a vixen, a young one of about twenty-three years. She is quite attractive, with fur the color of fiery gold, and wearing a tunic and breeches that wouldn't exactly be described as modest. However, they hang loosely on a thin frame, as if she weren't quite so skinny when they were made. But her jade-green eyes glint with a proud, even arrogant, fire, and she is armed to the teeth with a compact bow and a quiver strapped to her back, a rapier belted to her side, and daggers everywhere. She tosses her hair casually over her shoulder, eyeing the camp narrowly.**

So. I assume this is the Quanshaire Mercenary Patrol.

The wolf drops nimbly from his perch and lands in the middle of the ring. His rough, white paws tighten the rope once more. Finally he looks up and speaks in hi usual deep rumble** All swordsbeasts over here! If you need to borrow a blade and have not yet, please let me know. I can arrange for anybeast to use one of mine. **His sharp teeth flash in a smile** And I will also be onhand to make any repairs that are necessary.

With a satisfied nod, he pulls out a length of binding tape and a knife from one of his pockets, and proceeds to cut it into strips. Once he is finished, he addresses the camp** A'ight, who's going to be first to box, hmm..? Come 'n' get your paws binded. You don't punch below the waist, and the fight ends on a knock-out or a surrender. Everybeast happy? **He leans on a nearby tree, running the binding tape absently through his paws, surveying the other preperations.**

OOC: We actually had 3 people all suggest the same thing, and since we liked it so much, we're going to go ahead with...

BIC: I am pleased to announce the Quanshaire Memorial Tournament of Champions! We are holding a series of competitions for all who wish to enter in honor of our late commander, Quanshaire. **Bows his massive head for a moment, then looks up again, a glint of excitement in his dark brown eyes** I will first announce the competitions, and then the rules. You may compete in:

1. Archery
2. Climbing
3. Swimming
4. Swordplay and dueling
5. Lying (i.e. who can tell the biggest fib)
6. Ground Jousting with Staves
7. Wrestling
8. Boxing
9. Cammoflauge
10. Disguising

The rules are as follows:

1. You may participate in any event, under the appropriate section. Some events (climbing, swimming) have different sections for beasts who swim or climb naturally, and for those who have acquired the skill elsewhere.

2. You may participate in as many events as you like (OOC: as long as you are not swimming across the river and shooting an arrow at the target at the same time. If you are in two competitons taking place at the same time, finish one first and then take your turn at the other)

3. (BIC) No sabatauging others attempts. We are mercenaries, not heathens, and we have some dignity and class, so play fair.

4. (OOC) As usual, no auto-ing during things like sword fights and duels, as well as all the other usual rules of ROC RPing.

(BIC) The events will be judged by the leaders, and each event will be led by one of the leaders according to what they specialize in. The first events will be Climbing, led by Astirana; Archery, led by Favre; Boxing, led by Tatanshan; and Dueling, led by yours truly. Let the Tournament begin!

**She is quite a sight to see, the very epideme(sp) of villianous verminage. The first thing you notice about her is the thing she has for the color black. Her fur is the deepest shade of the color, and her clothes come pretty darn close. She's got an assortment of small bags (black) hanging from her belt (also black). She gazes around the battle field in shrewd observation, and a paw reaches to a hilt at her side. Out of the black sheath she draws an equally black dirk, the blade as dark as obsidian, but as hard as steel. Glancing around, she grins evilly to herself, knowing that now was the time to prove her worth to the QMP. Without a word or sound to draw the attacker's attention to herself, she draws away from the firelight, and into the shadows. ((It is night, right? If not, then she draws into the shadows of the trees.)) She crouches down, muscles tense as she waits for an attacker, a foe, to come within sight of her shrewd, mismatched eyes.

**Caught off guard by the wildcat's sudden attack, Kinnan catches the sword-blow to his chest full-force. The blade does not pierce his jerkin thanks to a chain-mail coat he wears beneath it, but he is badly bruised and breathing is painful. He lowers his broadsword and leans heavily on it. His dark eyes rove over the battles being played out around him, and his gaze rests on Favre standing over Grisiga. He looks at Tarriana with a sudden pity and speaks, though with slight difficulty** My fight with you is through, Tarriana. Your father calls you. He has need of you. If it be your fate to become the leader of this rag-tag group you have had the cheek to attack us with, I would urge you to think very hard about what path you will all take. **Sighs and coughs** A good leader knows when it is time to withdraw. Half of your beasts have fallen, and the others soon will. Do you want to be the only one left alive? **Glances towards Astri, hoping she will dispatch the weasel soon so she can attend to his wound**

**There is a slight rustle in the undergrowth. A pair of eyes... or is it two... gleam through some leaves at the edge of the clearing. Suddenly and silently a pair of sable heads can been seen rising from the underbrush. The long, dark faces, the jet-black eyes that glitter with a hint of gold, the velvety fur... Pine martins. The pair rise like serpents from their hiding place, tails inter-twined, swaying as one as they observe the scene. They have identical dark fur, black knee-length pants, purple shirts with full sleeves that gather at the wrists, and red sashes at their waists. Their markings match perfectly, except for the snowy patch that each has around a different eye. It is their only distinguishing feature, the only way to tell them apart. As they step from the brush, the one on the left speaks first. They fill in each others' sentences with matching silky voices**
"I am Scylla..."
"And I am Charybdis..."
"And we are here..."
"To take any challenge you wish to offer."
**They each carry a long, thin sword, and there are several silver hilts peeping out of their red sashes, evidence of the daggers they both carry. The each finger an amulet around their neck; each has a piece of a severed circle, another mark of their unity**

As he comes to a stop he halts on one foot for a moment then races forwards at a tree. Running up the coarse bark he goes as far as he can and flips over backwards. When he rests back where he started he eyes off the battle critically.** Phew, nothin' like a warm up ter git yer muscles toned. **He winks roguishly in Aislynn's direction**
