First annual Requiem Killympics. We're all getting a little soft, time to stretch those legs, sharpen those knives and crack them knuckles.
Concept:
The High Lord Executioner is hosting the first annual Requiem Killympics in conjunction with the Bloodwraiths to encourage a trained and skilled town capable of surviving any threats.
Goal:
Encourage people to practice and show off their skills.
How It Works:
At check in there will be colored flags available for players to attach to their belts. These flags represent a type of challenge available to acquire them.
At the end of the event, those with the most flags in each category will receive prizes as well as those with the most total flags.
Important Rules:
Flags must be visible at all times.
Keep if fun and fair. (Don't insist on lopsided terms, accept victory and defeat with grace)
Only one flag may be taken at a time.
Flags may ONLY be taken as the result of an appropriate challenge.
Flag challenges are not considered CVC and do not cause CVC timer locks unless you break the rules.
Types of flags -
Red Flags: May only be taken through combat and duels. A standard duel is a "first to 10 strikes" fight. Players may agree to upgrade the duel "to bleedout" or "to death" if both desired, however no one may reject a standard duel without good reason (need an OOG breather, actual injury, serious time sensitive issue etc). This is to keep the challenges fair and encourage people to actually participate. Do not leave your opponent bleeding to death or in imminent danger.
Black Flags: Black flags may only be taken by thievery and sleight of hand. The Larceny skill of sleight of hand must be used to remove the flag from another player. Larceny may specifically target this item instead of being random.
White Flags: White flags are challenges of skill and may only be obtained from such things. However they may be taken by other means later if both parties agree to a challenge (IE a duel, a game of cards, a challenge of reflexes or wit etc). White flags are obtained by solving puzzle boxes and practice locks hidden around the town and refreshed periodically.
