A Spirited Contest of Wills
Last night, there came to pass the great TRIBUTE TO FAZAAR! It is a fierce and brutal contest, where contestants are only allowed to use their own bodies, for Fazaar must test the worthiness of their hearts and not their skill with the arms of war.
The tribute took place upon the SEVENTH CIRCLE, a grand arena set upon the heights of an ACTIVE VOLCANO!
After a dedication by Bloodshaman Nishka of the DreadTalon tribe, the tribute began in earnest! It was a CATACLYSMIC affair, which offered many upsets. Both Shelkhan Dunestalker and Barnabas Dreadfrost, victors of previous tributes, were eliminated early in the contest.
Many other draken, despite their devotion to Fazaar, PROVED UNWORTHY in the eyes of the lord of the burning sun. By the semi-finals, only a single draken contender, Rozovy Skaldsong, proved worthy to enter the Semi-finals, along with Seeker Molluh, Samuel Cotter, and Douglas Bricius.
It was a terrific battle, but the two cassians proved themselves more worthy than their non-human counterparts, advancing to the finals.
Upon the glassy arena, above the roiling lava of the volcano, Fazaar finally BESTOWED HIS JUDGEMENT! Though both Samuel and Douglas fought fiercely in the heat and fire, though both gave all of their spirit, Fazaar would only choose one to carry his favor, for there CAN ONLY BE ONE VICTOR.
By the will of the SUNLORD, DOUGLAS BRICIUS has been named the CHAMPION OF FAZAAR, for his SPIRIT and FIRE has proved to CARRY THE FAVOR of the OLD GOD HIMSELF.
