Tournament Matches Announced
Posted by Cassandra on 10/14/19
As I stated two weeks ago, open enlistment for the Rite of Gloria tournament closed last night. In the time since I have gone over those who have signed up and sought to find the best way to set up the tournament bracket to make it fair and impartial. A thank you to Grandmaster Preston of the Templars for assisting me in making sure the match-making process was fair and impartial.
Because the number of participants is thirteen, which I find personally quite suiting, the bracket for the tournament will not be perfectly set up, leaving three people with first-round byes, who will fight in the second round.
The first round matches will be as follows:
Match 1: Princess Reese Grayson versus Officer Sparte Grayfellow
Match 2: Dame Felicia Harrow versus Lady Adalyn Clement
Match 3: Princess Sorrel Thrax versus Sir Bhandn Yvar
Match 4: Lady Brianna Halfshav versus Baron Norwood Clement
Match 5Lord Pharamond Ashford versus Lord Alban Farshaw
Master Aleksei Morgan, Baroness Violet Farwatch, and Lord Rysen Crovane will have first-round byes. Master Aleksei Morgan will fight the winner of Match 1, Baroness Farwatch will face the winner of Match 4, and Lord Crovane will take on the winner of Match 5.
While I look forward to the honorable and chivalrous combat, I equally look forward to the boasting between participants leading up to the matches, now that all involved know who they'll be fighting. The tournament will take place in one month's time(OOC Note: likely November 9th, time, event to be posted soon).
As for the grand melee which will take place a week later(OOC Note: November 16th most likely), I will be looking for two commanders for two teams. They will pick their teams the day of melee depending on who wishes to partake in the battle. I should note, that archers will be allowed in the grand melee, armed with blunted wooden arrow tips.
I look for to the display in both the tournment and the melee.
