[edit] Background
To prove that there is more to the idea of bringing Oblivion to the Nexus than stabbing you in the face and sending Polaroids of people abusing your corpse to your mother, Oblivion Squadron has started The Obliviondome.
The O-Dome will be opening shortly and provide an arena for everyone across the Nexus to step up to the plate and show that their wild boasts have some substance. We can once and for all settle the bar room debates over whether a Lightspeaker's pets are better than an Elementalist's, whether an Infernal Behemoth can defeat a Seraph in single combat and just how many mortals would it take to kick a Void Walker to death.
[edit] Location
The Jonestown Stadium (previously Jonestown Station) in Chuckwagon (28,42) has been co-opted and renamed The Obliviondome.
[edit] Rules
The quote at the start says it all. A fight to the death, within the Obliviondome. However, there are always exceptions to this (see below).
Other rules can be agreed between the combatants to give the matches different flavours and so everyone is perfectly clear what will happen (to help we have provided some examples).
The only other "rule" is that non-combatants do not get involved in the fight. Dire consequences will result.
[edit] Match types
To help a number of match types have been devised
- Chuckwagon Death Match: Anything goes. Potions, pets, anything,
- Nekkid Wrasslin: Innate skills only. No other armour or weapons. No spells, no potions. Getting oiled up is optional.
- Best in Show (down): Pets face off and tear each other apart. I'd be interested in seeing Lightspeaker vs Elementalist.
- Mystery Weapon: One weapon is issued to the combatants in the class they pick (melee, long arms, short arms) and they have to fight with that. Sledgehammers, scalpels or frying pans?
- Wizard Wars: Spell based combat
- Monkey Knife Fight: We make T1s fight for our amusement.
- Attack of the Ants: The main exception to the “two men enter” mantra. A bunch of T1s go in with so wildly overpowered T3.
- Professional Obliviondome: The main exception to "one man leaves." This is a RP freestyle contest in which the two people in the Obliviondome emote their increasingly outrageous combat, including unlikely finishing moves. It would be sporting of the loser to concede defeat but in the event of a draw the logs of the contest will be posted and we'll decide on who put in the best performance.
- Rampant Regal Rumble: 28 of the best from each faction meet in the Obliviondome. Last one standing wins.
- Throwing the Mortals to the Pets: A group of mortals vs pets in a mirror of the Romans throwing Christians to the lions for their sport.
[edit] Prizes
The main prize will be bragging rights, as well as a wider acknowledgement of your greatness. However, as an incentive prizes will also be offered although they will be subject to various factors.
Some factions will be contributing prizes to tempt people into fighting.
Equally we suggest the combatants wager some precious item(s) to make the victory all that bit sweeter and such things can be hammered out while they establish the groundrules.
[edit] Other Obliviondomes
Like Disney, the Obliviondome franchise has options for other Obliviondomes. One suggestion has been Obliviondome:Stygia so the Dark Oppressors can show what they are capable of on their home turf.
[edit] Partners
As this will be a major undertaking a number of factions have expressed an interest in helping with aspects of the tournaments including providing logistical support and prizes. These include:
