Queen of Hearts XIII
Boffer Tournaments

 

Champions' Tourney

It's the single toughest tourney in the Realms today. It lasts two days long and if you win, you'll be in very good company.

One Man Tourney

The best male fighters from each team compete against each other to determine who is the best.

One Woman Tourney

The best female fighters from each team compete against each other to determine who is the best.

Couples' Tourney

You have to be willing to kiss each other. In public. Possibly a great many times. You also fight other couples from other teams, of course.

Knights' and Squires' Tournament

A Knight and his/her Squire may enter in these tournaments. They may compete both as a team and individually.

Spirit & Steel Tournament

A spellcaster and a fighter team up in this traditional two-person team competition.

Pages' Tournament

This tournament is for children ages 7-12. This is the one tournament that teams may enter as many entrants as they want. In the spirit of having fun, it will not be run in a competitive fashion - there will be no "losers" in this tourney. Teams earn 1 point per page entered in the Pages Tourney.

Mages' Tournament

Your team's Mage must enter this tournament. Be prepared for anything and everything.

RATs' Tourney

"RATs" are Rogues, Assassins and Thieves (Rogues in the traditional sense.) Anything can happen, any of your skills might be tested, only a true jack of all trades has a chance.

Rangers' Tourney

You get to do rangery stuff. You should expect to spend a good chunk of time doing this tournament if you are your team's entrant.

Boffer Archery Tourney

Involves one on one combat, and perhaps more!

Daggers, Single Short, Florentine, Sword and Shield and Hand and a Half

Simple weapon-style tournaments.

Duncan's Challenge

You must win 3 out of five fights against your opponent. You have a choice of five weapons (dagger, single short, florentine, sword & shield and hand and a half) for each fight, but once you use a weapon combo, it may not be used again. In the first fight, both fighters pick their weapons simultaneously. After the first fight, the person that won the previous fight must pick first, and their oppoent can choose which weapons they want to counter with.

5-Person Tournament

It's your best four plus your Champion.

Newbies' Tourney

Your newbie must have started eventing since the previous year's Queen of Hearts. This is a change from previous years. They will be asked not only to demonstrate their prowess in combat, but also their knowledge of the rules, etiquette (unwritten rules) and Realms history & current events (both in and out of character.) How well do you prepare the people you bring into the Realms?
