After the departure from Celliwig last month, the people of Celliwig have been working hard to make the area around their town safe again from the angered specters. For now, there are makeshift barriers that are preventing anything from crossing the river, dead or alive, except over the Pure of Heart bridge. It will, at the very least, prevent more from coming over and overwhelming the land surrounding Celliwig again. The city is open and, while the Elphame traders have stuck around to help train people in the proper use and treatment of mounts, the safest way to speak to Elphame is through Celliwig's hall of mirrors. King Arthur, Merlin, and a couple of other members of the royal court entered to speak to Queen Elphame directly in order to find out what information she knew about the Calamity and to begin discussion of what it would take to reclaim Excalibur. With the magics of Avalon having recovered significantly enough to not be at risk of falling apart if some of the otherworlders leave while still maintaining the barrier to keep Avalon safe, they need to begin discussing action. At the same time, in celebration of King Arthur's arrival and a royal wedding within Celliwig, a tournament is underway! Celliwig's tournaments work a little differently, however, and focus on a little more than just combat skills-- a modern tournament for the modern person. (Though there is fighting as well, of course.) Celliwig's Top Talents Tourney hasn't been held in a good many years since it's been closed off, so everyone is invited to participate. Invitations have been sent to all of Camelot's residents. The tournament categories are as follows:
Anyone who shows up to either participate in or watch the tournament will receive 50% off a hotel room and a single (Potion) Counter-curse. How the tournament will be run is a little different from an OOC standpoint. Any characters can participate, but in order to determine a winner, we will need anyone who thinks their characters skill is great enough to win to comment to the name of the tournament they are entering HERE! If your character would have canon advantages in a category, write +1 advantage in your comment. (So if you are from an idol series, you'll have a leg up on singing, or if your character is a skilled assassin in their canon, they could gain a +1. It won't guarantee they win, but it will give them a leg up so we're not ignoring their skill!) If you do not think your character has any chance at winning, please do not comment. (Someone who's never cooked a day in their life isn't going to magically win the cooking competition, you know?) If you think/want your character to lose even if they may have skills, we do not need your information. This is only an RNG for potential winners. We will RNG the winners from those who comment for each competition as linked. ICly, anyone who wants to thread any part of it out, go for it! You can thread out watching, you can thread out participating, interfering, anything you want! Thread out having an intimate moment with a healer after a battle, a tearful failure and hurt/comfort consolation, buying a round of vodka flashes for your fellow losers. Whatever you want! Just have fun. ![]()
The day after the end of the tournament days, all seems well and peaceful as usual within the city of Celliwig. The mirror hall that King Arthur's party had gone into is still closed shut. The Hall is guarded by a 7 foot tall man with a long, scraggly beard and huge rippling muscles named Glewlwyd IV. (You may have seen him around at past events.) None may enter until negotiations are completed, and it is his sacred duty passed down by his ancestors to ensure that none shall pass his guard. Most in Celliwig won't even try, knowing the futility of such an action, which is why it is particularly peculiar that Gwion can be found yelling outside of the halls that they need to be let in. After an argument and a call to action, some other worlders chose to find Gwion and ask questions.

...Part of her was curious about what the man himself was like, having only really spoken to his familiar before now. Hm. Bad tempered, but serious, was what she could gather so far.]
Now which one of you is real I wonder...
[She had no real way of telling, despite her muttering. Sure she could cripple them with pain, but she didn't want to make her own shaky standing in Avalon even worse. So for now, she weaved her arms in a wide arc, the dark fog around them thickening as she infused it with blinding curses. Any Arthurs who did cross the threshold would at least be weakened.]
no subject
[He's got one arm raised up, hand contorted into a claw as he's waging a tug-o-war with a glowing spectre that seems to be getting drawn out of the mirror frame bit by bit. When it's finally ripped from its crystal with a piercing shriek Hijikata smirks. This is amazing! Finally he can do something about these bodyless bastards!]
no subject
But no, he had it in hand, so she could focus on her work.
Just in time, too, as an Arthur-clone staggered his way blindly into the fog, confused and disorientated by the sudden weight of the curses weighing down upon him. Caster flicked her wrist, calling tendrils of darkness out to tug him away from them- back toward the battle proper.]
no subject
He quickly turns back to the mirror, starting his invocation back up to reactivate the exorcism spell for the next ghost. He's never felt more determined to delve deeper into all this gritty death magic business. He wants to be strong enough to cleanse the whole mirror with one crushing, blinding spell!]
no subject
...They could talk about their grudge after this was all done.
For now, she focused on skilfully wielding the darkness around her, as if every shadow, every patch of darkness was an extension of her- a power she could weave into an inky blackness to carry out her will.
It looked like Hijikata wasn't wearing down...good. How many of those spirits were there? Would his stamina hold out, and what would she do if it didn't?
The cloak around them thickened, sending out a pulse into the room proper- an oppressive wave that repulsed the nearby fighters.]
no subject
In the end it's thanks to the sheer number of participating death mages - there's a dozen of them - that the flow of replicas ebbs in good time, and as the battle noise gradually subsides the last ghost is forced from the crystal frame with an unearthly scream. Hijikata is grateful to see the commotion slow down; he's drained and has black spots dancing in front of his vision when he blinks. ]
I think we did it.
[He wants to sit down before he faints, but he doesn't want to appear feeble in front of Caster. Hell no. Where's King Arthur, anyway? He can't see anything through the shroud of darkness surrounding them. Ugh, damn it, he really isn't feeling good... he may appear pale and kind of out of it, but he's doing his best to keep himself together.]
no subject
[The sounds of battle were winding down, too- but there was something else. She could hear worried voices calling for anyone with healing magic to come now, and people starting to rush around with urgency...what happened, out there?
With a deep breath and a wide sweep of her staff, the darkness began to dissolve into wisps- slowly clearing the air around them until the sight of healers shooing people away from the collapsed, wounded King finally came into view.
So someone had targeted him, after all...]
no subject
[He pushes himself forward, even knowing that he can't heal the king - he just wants to ensure that nobody uses the opportunity to do him worse harm. He staggers, however, and ends up steadying himself against Caster's shoulder... not as planned.]
Shit-- sorry--
no subject
Hmph...you've used a lot of your Mana. Sit down and let the healers do their job.
...For the record, I am not testing if the methods I knew from home to restore Mana will work the same way here. So don't ask.
[Not that Hijikata had actually said anything of the sort.]
no subject
[He's so close to fainting, his response is surprisingly obedient, shakily sitting down on the ground and lighthing himself a comforting cigarette. His unfazed reaction proves that he has no idea what the mana restoration of Caster's world entails, and he's fighting so hard to remain conscious, he's not about to ask for more information either. If he happens to learn more about it at some later point he'll probably understand.]
Hey... look after the king, okay? If any of the ghosts come back, cloak him from view.
[He didn't say "please", but his weak tone makes it apparent that it's a request rather than an attempt at ordering her around.]
no subject
[But... Caster did tend to reflect how others treated her. And so, rather than continuing to needle at him, she got to her feet once he was settled and kept her eyes out for any other dangers.
She could, at least, do that until Hijikata had recovered his strength.]
no subject
When Arthur is being transported out of the hall he uneasily gets back to his feet, ready to tail-guard the procession. Instead of any more words he simply gives Caster a small salute. He may still have plenty of misgivings about her, but she did her part in this battle, for both him and the king, and he's not going to downplay that.]
