Urguan’s Festival of Talent!

 

 

It has been too long since the People of Urguan were called to display their skill as an act of glory and worship to the gods of the Brathmordakin. Such a circumstance is lamentable, so it is for that reason that Da Kirkja Dverga, sends out the call for all talented craftsmen, mages, and warriors living within the lands of Urguan to come forth and display their skills at this grand festival; a display of knowledge, talent, and passion great enough to draw the attention of the Brathmordakin.

 

This festival shall occur in three parts, spread over three stone days, with each day being dedicated to one of the Brathmordakin patrons of great talent. Each day shall contain a short sermon on the related god, a contest in the domain of the god, accompanied by a prize to be gifted to the winner, along with a feast and gifts for all who attend the events.

 

((OOC: The event will be held on August 6-8th, starting at 6 p.m. E.S.T. each day. All events begin in the Temple area of the Urguan capital city Kal’Darakaan))

 

Day One: Yemekar and Craftsmanship

Of all the prayers and rituals a dwarf can do, nothing pleases Yemekar more than when his children take up their tools and create something new. For this reason, the contest of Yemekar shall be one of craftsmanship!

 

The Contest: Craftsmen of Urguan shall present to the clergy the greatest work their hands have created to be displayed openly in front of all. Attendees of the festival will observe these great works and vote on which they believe is the most well-made and beautiful in form. The work that receives the most votes will be declared the winner of the contest. 

 

The Rules:

1. The item must be made by the person submitting it. 

2. The item may be enchanted but such will not be taken into account for the scoring for the Yemekar Contest.

3. The item must be submitted the stone evening before the first day of the festival begins.

4. Any citizen of Urguan or her vassals may enter the contest. 

 

Clergy Aid: Clergy members will be available to mark each crafted item with a carved blessing of Yemekar, blessing it with the gods favor.

 

The Prize: The winner will be awarded 50 Karzul (250 mina) and a unique anvil crafted and blessed by the craftsdwed of the clergy. 

 

The Gift: As a gift to those who attend the festival, Da Kirkja Dverga will give each attendee who turns in their vote a commemorative golden coin.

 

Day Two: Ogradhad and Magic

Of all the feats that knowledge informs, few are as difficult as magecraft. Ogradhad, as the patron of all who seek knowledge, also serves as the overseer of mages. For this reason, the contest of Ogradhad shall be one of magic!

 

The Contest: Mages of Urguan will present before the attendees of the festival their greatest display of beautiful and intricate magic. As in the previous contest, the attendees will then vote on which display of magecraft was the most impressive.

 

The Rules: 

1. Any spell cast cannot be harmful to the people attending the festival (OOC: All spells must be non-combative)

2. If a mage is a practicing enchanter, they may instead submit an item enchanted with magic, the effect of which can be displayed in lieu of a spell.

3. Any citizen of Urguan or her vassals may enter the contest.

 

Clergy Aid: Clergy members will help the spellcasters prepare by practicing their spells with them, providing prayers, and offering assistance in the methods of Dwarven incantation.

 

The Prize: The winner will be awarded 50 Karzul (250 mina) and a unique magical artifact. 

 

The Gift:  As a gift to those who attend the festival, Da Kirkja Dverga will give each attendee who turns in their vote an enchanted item to aid in celebration.

 

Day Three: Dungrimm and Combat

There is no greater way for someone to display their valor and fortitude than in a contest of single combat. For this reason, the contest of Dungrimm shall be a fighting tournament!

 

The Contest: Warriors of Urguan will participate in a single-elimination fighting tournament. The winner of the tournament and the prize will be the warrior that stands victorious at the end of the bouts. 

 

The Rules:

1. All battles will be fought with fisticuffs and without the aid of weapons, armor, magic, or any other method that may provide unfair advantage. (OOC: Battles are PvP with fists only).

2. The tournament bracket shall be made through random choice. 

3. Any citizen of Urguan or her vassals may enter the contest.

 

Clergy Aid: Clergy members will be available to offer blessings of Dungrimm and prayers to each warrior participating.

 

The Prize: The winner will be awarded 50 Karzul (250 mina) and a uniquely crafted weapon forged by the finest craftsdwed of the clergy. 

 

The Gift: As a gift to those who attend the festival, Dak Kirkja Dverga will give each attendee an Iron Mask of Dungrimm.
