What boredom hath wrought

Here are some facts:

-- A good many of you don't like me.

-- Some of you don't want me to be a Baron.

-- I'm bored and growing restless.

-- This place could always use a little more action.


Therefore, for a limited time, I am setting myself up for an unofficial que. Here are the rules:

I will bring 10,000 gold crowns to the event. This will start off the pot. All I ask is that the challengers bring 1000 gold crowns of their own. If I lose, I will vacate the Second Ring and place it in the Warlord's Tournament. In addition, I will give the person who beats me the pot. If the challenger loses, they will put their 1000 gold crowns in the pot. If I end the night still the Baron of the Second, I will attempt to give the pot over to
Nych, to use the money for the good of the Arena in some manner. If he refuses, I will give the pot to some other charity.

All ranks are welcome.

Baron Cassius Maximus,
You have unofficially been challenged. Though I do not need the money, I am out of practice, and wish to get back into a dueling groove. This has nothing to do with your first comment about not liking you. I look forward to meeting with you in the ring.

::glancing across the board, he noticed the notice by Cass::

"This should be interesting.. if not fun as well..."

::taking one of the old notes from the board, he flipped it and hastly wrote on it::

He is just doing this to avoid my challenge.

Drey,

I wasn't aware you had issued a challenge to the Roman. Did I miss a memo?

::she slithered up to the boards, eyeing the notice before putting up one of her own::

I look forward to seeing you in the ring, Baron Maximus.

We have 4 challengers. Due to time constraints, the que begins tonight at 8 RST. If I do not get you in, we will resume Friday.

The order is as follows, and is determined by order of entry:


-- Sprite Argo

--Dawn Shadowsbane

--John Tasslehofl Momus

--Saryna


I hope to see you all there.

Well, I was defeated by Saryna, in the first match. So be the will of the gods. For the record, my goal was never to prove great skill. My goal was to actually do something with my ring, other than sit on it. And so it has been done.

The Second is vacant and has been given up as a prize in the Warlord's Tournament, which I will enter. The gold was offered to Saryna, who has requested that I instead donate it to the Arena. I plan to do this.
