I'll toss this out there for the Council members to look over, and see what they think.

With the recent incursion of Ronin and Ninja from the Northern woods, efforts need to be taken to push back their advancement for the protection of PaxOku. I have received direct threats from their High Lord on my person, and my home in the Northern Tearose District. He wishes to meet on the battle field in Honorable combat, to once and for all settle this matter of Territory.

The Rules of Engagement are simple:

-Melee/Hand to Hand combat only...(No pets, no magic, no summoned beings). He himself has requested this, for to die in battle by the blade is an Honorable death.

-No mounts. All combat is to take place on foot, and common ground.

-GM weapons only. All weapons are to be of Oriental design...(There will be an exception on some Macing weapons and other various types for lack of variety). Weapons will be crafted before hand, and available the night of the event.

-Archery is allowed, and the only type of ranged attack suitable.

-You may fight alone, or with one other person...(for cross healing and the like).

-Other complimentary Arts will be allowed along with Melee skill...(Chivalry, Ninjitsu, Bushido...etc.).

The Goal:

To destroy as many Ronin and Ninja as possible throughout the Northern woods, and at their stronghold. You will be required to collect their gold, and books of Bushido and Ninjitsu...(required amount of books to be collected to win will be decided by the Council), when you can carry no more, you will return them by foot to a Secure Chest located at my home. The person or persons to collect the required amount of books, will receive the Chest of gold from the event...(plus any other goodies the Council would like to suggest).

If this is an event the Council would like to host, we can discuss it in further detail to ensure fairness.

Sincerely,
Lord Xavier Reed
