[QUOTE="Velmont, post: 2879834, member: 13739"] Among the largest and oldest building of the city stands the arena in the northen district. This arena can accept easily two thousand persons confortably. In high events, there is seldom some wooden tribune added that allow the capacity to be raised over three thousand persons. The arena have been build long time ago for the pleasure of the people. With time, a number of events died, following wars. In the last decade, the city have decided to restore the arena and some events starts to take place again. The council also have stated that they could use it to make important public annoncement to the population, but they never use that right. The inside field of the arena cover an area of 40 feet by 80 feet. All the permanent tribune are made of stone and surround on three sides the field. The forth side is the entrance of the field with two large oak door, and over, the rich loge. Next to the arena is a building that connect directly to the arena and the two large oak doors. This building is used by the entertainers or competitors to prepare themselves before the show. It is in this building that you go for the tournement. The streets near the arena are full of people, which is unusual for this part of the city. You've never seen so more people gathering in these small streets that aren't made to handle such a troup. A few merchant have installed stall here and there and try to sells food, drinks and trinkets. Many guards are place around the Arena and some are patrolling in the streets. You enter the large building and climb into the stands. You see the wooden tribune have been added. The opening ceremony is about to start and you see the arena is not all full, but the extra tribune are more than welcome for your conforts. You remarks there are all kinds of people in here adn they are all chatting with the people around. [SBLOCK=OOC]The people around you seems to be the other PC here, what a coincidence ;) [/SBLOCK] [SBLOCK=Note about this "adventure"]This adventure is not an adventure as we are used to see it in LEW. It isn't: we find a group, we go there, we do that, we take our reward and we come back. This adventure happen in Orussus, so anyone in the Red Dragon Inn can join up almost at any time. If you are in a contest, you will have the chance to do it. Between contest, there might happen things. You are watching the contest, there might happen things. You are in the streets of Orussus, taking advantage of the larger amount of merchant that have come to sell things suring the tournement, there might happen things. I have three objective with this adventure: [List] [*]Do a tournement. [*]Make Orussus more than a name, but a living city, where everyday (and not so every day) events happen. [*]Create thinsg around the character, and not an adventure plot. Which mean, if you haev a background, I'll try to use it. Most of them, will end to be roleplay only, but some will end with an open chance for a futur adventure. I like to see that the background is more than just a story to tell around a fire. [/List] Even if I'll try to feed all players with something, it might happen that some times, I slow down so the timeline stay the same for everyone (I never know when I'll make people cross there path). If at one time, you have a IC chance to go back to the RDI and you want to (your character find the archery contest boring and want to take a drink, do to the RDI, why not. It's a fine place to take a drink, it,s free! ;) ) and by the same moment, you can do some publicity for the tournement. Finally, if you want to join a contest, you can subscribe to it as long as it hasn't started for the category you want to join.[/SBLOCK] [/QUOTE]
