The newly renewed Ixmaten Proving Grounds, home to the one and only FIGHT NIGHT, has necessitated a few changes to its structure.
The old leaderboard will be replaced with LEAGUES: the Master, Apprentice, and Sutican leagues. Master League is for full, officiated duels. Apprentice League is for sparring & training matches. And Sutican League is mainly for aspirants, using the old Sutican dueling system. To progress ranks through the leagues, one must challenge combatants of a higher rank. To dismiss a challenge from one below you, unless they are very far below, is a dishonor.
Every decade, ten Saint's weeks, is a SEASON of Ixmat. This day marks the beginning of SEASON 1. At the end of each season, all ranks will be reset, and the top three of each league will go down in history as the champions of that season.
A new RULE has necessarily been instated: For all officiated matches, as well as all FIGHT NIGHT matches, the arena gates MUST REMAIN CLOSED. Escape from the arena will not be tolerated and will result in forfeit. (Gates may be opened and closed from the inside - nobody will be trapped.)
Officiated matches will be officiated by JUDGES, who will enforce all arena rules and agreed upon stipulations. They cannot participate in the fight, they must be spectating. All MAGISTERS and VIZIERS are automatically qualified as judges. Anyone wishing to become a qualified judge may contact the ARENA MASTER.
A new training regiment created by Hohkmat's Lord-Magister is officially recognized by the Ixmaten Proving Grounds, and recommended to all: MAGE'S VOLLEY.
