The Divisions:
Polearm | One handed | Two handed (not polearm)
Sword and Shield | Dual Wielding Swords | Daggers
Each division has a hard cap of 8 people. You can only join one division. If the division you want to join is full, please consider joining another division. If a division does not have a full 8 people, one of the participants will move up to the next round, chosen at random.
The Tournament:
Sign-ups close Saturday morning. When Arley wakes up, she’ll make the brackets for the event and post them on the quest board. The brackets will be posted by noon at the latest.
Participants and referees will meet Arley by the Alisandria State House at 4. The jousting arena will be divided into numbered fields. Each division will have a number that corresponds with a field. The first two rounds of combat will happen in these fields. All divisions will fight the first two rounds at the same time. Please check which fields your friends will be fighting in so you can cheer them on!
The two finalists from each division will find Arley so that she can set up the round.
The finals will happen one by one in the main jousting arena.
The sign-ups will be available at the quest board in the inn. You can also send Arley a message to sign up. Please let her know if you have any questions.
Looking for referees who can heal, please sign up if you would like to help!
If I'm available during this time, which I currently am, I can help as a healer, can also referee if needed.
