Notes from the Isle

June 11th - June 17th

-Week 1 of 9-

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Tonight is the Summer All Ranks Tournament and it’s sure to be a hot one! Casting gets started at 8 PM EST and sign-ups are still open here! What will be the most contested prize tonight? Are you trying for the whistle to call upon the fiery steed, Aithon? Or maybe the adorable treasure hunting Ember Mouse? The treehouse in Halflight Hollow is beautiful, and a year’s worth of free rent is a sweet perk. So much to choose from, good luck to all of our casters this evening!

Kick off summer and the new cycle on the right foot by picking up action in the rings on Twilight Isle, reserve a place to stay in the Gloaming at the Canopy, or just by coming out and enjoying the magical vibes of Rhydin’s favorite Pocket Realm Island! We’ve love to have you here!

AROUND THE CITY

Pride Week was full of activities these past several days, from donations centers opening, to the Everybody Prom celebration this past Friday Night! Everyone was dressed in their fashionable best and danced the night away in the Crystal Caverns. Wednesday Night the Golden Perch hosted Triva Night where Mallory announced two winners of the evening, Governor Dris and Vesper! Congratulations to you both! Thursday Night the Books and Brews and Anya hosted live readings of queer fairy tale retellings. The recommendation table acting as a free library helped get books into curious hands and even if you were unable be there this week, here’s a list of recommended readings! Please enjoy and remember everyone: Love is Love! The events of the week closed out with a beachside bonfire hosted by everyone’s favorite beholder with beautiful blue eyes, Tenball! At the Tiki bar drinks were flowing, patrons were singing, and it was all a great way to finish out the week!

NEWS FROM OTHER VENUES: In the Arena, their All Ranks Tournament has been announced and it’ll be this coming weekend, so be sure to sign up now! Saturday June 24 at 8 PM EST is when the action will get started and the prizes up for grabs look fantastic! There’s a Weekend Surf Excursion picked out by the Overlord Reign as well as the discovered Sword of Summer! And not to be forgotten, the always sought after collection of grants and silver noble prizes! Good luck to all the participants!

And this past week was a Seaside celebration to honor Droet, who’s been the Baron of that area for over 500 days now! We haven’t seen a reign like this in Seaside since the times of Vael! Very impressive Droet! Keep up the great work in the rings!

In the Outback, it’ll still be another month before the Diamond Quest where you can make a rule that you have the best abs in the Outback, so be sure to get out there and compete with the avocado crunch master herself, Dakota! There’s plenty of time to make emerald, but you must get in the rings first!

DEBUTS: No debuts this week.

ADVANCEMENTS: No rank increases this week.

THE RING OF KLYTUS: The holder for this cycle is Mairead Harker! The ring grants an additional focus over the normally allotted amount, but is still limited to the maximum of 3 foci.

Cycle Ranks Through Week 1

Cycle rankings show how duelists perform over the course of the cycle, with the top performer earning the Ring of Klytus (provided they began the cycle below the rank of Mage). To balance percentage performance duelists are broken into 3 brackets based on number of duels fought, with top accolades achievable by only those in the upper tier. Duelists are ordered first by bracket, then by winning percentage, followed by the number of wins and lastly by low rank to high.
