Way of the Warrior
Welcome to the return of the popular Way of the Warrior tournament, a guild exclusive Arena Tournament, that has introduced several prominent characters, from OOC and IC, to the Guild Arena.
The tournament is a single elimination event that features a varied range of arenas and characters, as well as a futuristic Lobby that allows for non-competing characters to develop stories based off the events and outcomes of matches. Often, these are characters who hold some considerable influence over their own (hyper) universes, defined as a massive universe that houses others.
The Lobby is headed up by a mysterious figure named Liaison, who fancies himself a middleman, and has connections to a fair few top players among the hyper universes. The Lobby is of his own creation, having called in chips with leaders of magical and technological worlds to facilitate it's manufacture. It contains healing chambers, rest areas, viewing areas, and a teleportation room to get players to and from the battlegrounds.
There have been several iterations of this tournament both on and off-screen, leading to branching stories that have had wide effects on the Arena. Some classic participants include Lyzan, Alphonse, and Sigurd. This version is being held at the behest of Feyerli Obhug, President-Elect of the fourth largest known Hyper universe, the KyTrey Universe. The universe is constantly a war, and so have extended their efforts to find a universe outside of their system to aid in their eternal efforts. Feyerli accepted all sides proposal to venture outside their own hyper universes to find more soldiers.

- Non combatants are to enter and remain in the upper viewing area to watch and wager on bouts there.

- Extra Rules as needed
Inspiration
Way of the Warrior was inspired by Roleplaygateway tournament Grassroots hosted by TwilightShade, a tournament I placed fourth in. Winner of WOTW is allowed one favor from Liaison, assuming it doesn't cost him his life, he's all about self preservation until he achieves his goal.
There is no stated character sheet, so feel free to use your own.
