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!

Huh..i'll join duelin' an' lyin'...*is still all puffed up and special feeling*Cateye14:05:59 10/12/01 Fri
*grins broadly, pausing momentarily to consider what events to join* Archery, climbin'... swordplay, t'be sure! Ground Jousting, Boxing, and Disguising! *chuckles slightly* There ain't a limit to the number o' events we can do, is there?Fray Blackwood16:41:19 10/13/01 Sat
**A rustling in the branches of an elm tree is quickly followed by Tatanshan dropping lightly out of the foliage. He dusts a few pieces of bark off his clothes, and cocks an eyebrow** So who's up for boxing? (NT)Tatanshan23:40:30 10/13/01 Sat
**Grins good-naturedly at Tatanshan** So, you've decided to join us, Tanny? **Winks and cuffs the fox on the shoulder before addressing the rest of the mercs** All swordbeasts gather up over here! **Grins at Fray** No, there's no limit, just make sure you're not trying to shoot an arrow and climb up a tree at the same time. Might make you lose at both that way! **Laughs and drains his mug** (NT)Kinnan Ulfe11:52:49 10/15/01 Mon
**Stands near Kinnan, half expecting to be told she's 'too young' to participate.** 'ey..I dun' 'ave ter carry a normal sword, do I? **Lowers her brows**Cateye06:17:28 10/16/01 Tue
**Laughs** Of course you don't have to carry a "normal" sword! What do you normally duel with? If you need to borrow a blade, I've got plenty to spare! (NT)Kinnan Ulfe09:07:56 10/16/01 Tue
**Nods at Cateye** Good, good. I would have to say that a scimitar would be a bit more appropriate than a sickle for this sort of contest. Would you care to borrow one? I'm sure I can find one very close to the size and weight of your own. **Winks** Just t'make it a bit more fair to those who carry light swords and such! **His eyes rest upon Rio and Aislynn** I don't see why we can't have an arguing contest. The two of you seem to be quite good at arguing between yourselves without the need of somebeast else, but if you can find an opponant, have at it! **Glances at Favre, Astri, and Tatan** And you're a lot less without a squad than you think, Rio. Stick with Aislynn. (NT)Kinnan Ulfe07:49:25 10/18/01 Thu
**Grins at Kinnan** An arguing contest does sound interesting. **Coughs** Hmm.. P'raps we should start getting ready. **Fishes into one of the many pockets on his flak-jacket, and pulls out a long piece of rope. He begins to mark out a boxing ring, banging wooden pegs in with his massive obsidian-spiked mace.** (NT)Tatanshan21:21:22 10/18/01 Thu
