The man enters the fabled ring. A man wearing chainmail underneath a black silk shirt over black leather pants and boots, twin scimitars dangling from his belt in thier scabbards. Drawing a deep sharp breath in the realization that he is finally here. He remembers from his childhood the warriors of his clan traveling here to the honored "Duel of Swords" to represent his clan. Now Blackavar has that honor. Blackavar, Ranger of the northern tundra of Icewind Dale, Warrior of the Snow Fox Clan. Blackavar thinks of the reaction of his people when he someday brings home one of the rings. The songs they will sing in his honor. He looks forward to the day. Blackavar looks over the schedule, noting the time for the next duel of swords in this fine ring, then turns and walks off. "I will bring honor to my clan."
