Notes from the Isle

December 22nd - December 28th

-Week 9 of 9-

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Winner of the December 2024 Archmage Tournament, Warden Dris, will be meeting up with current reining Archmage Doran Ilnaren this coming Friday, January the 3rd at 10:00 PM for a musically magical challenge match! Will the fifth time trying be the bard’s time to shine, or will the famous darling dreamer notch his first defense? We’ll find out in less than one week!

Note: Dominique Draegon won the Winter’s Fury on 12/15/24 in the Winter All Ranks tournament. This awards the usage of Elemental Fury in regulation matches until the next All Ranks tournament.

AROUND THE CITY: 2024 is almost at its end. Looking for a place to ring in the new year? Certainly there are plenty of party places to share a kiss at midnight, if that’s your thing. If you’re struggling to think of somewhere to go, though, pop on over to Twilight Isle and join the Double Dukes Drhys at their infamous #11 mansion, where the parties never stop!

NEWS FROM OTHER VENUES: The ever elusive Lord Anubis Karos has utilized the grant he won from the 2024 End of Fall All Ranks Tournament to issue a Ha-Ha-Happy Holiday Challenge to current reigning Overlord Eregor Túr Gairdín! This challenge has been validated and accepted. Now we eagerly await details of when it will go down! Stay tuned!

No new challenges to report in the Outback, but the IFL season picks back up after holiday break this week. New matchups drop tonight at midnight! Real RhyDin continues to steamroll the competition and remains undefeated as we go into week seven of ten in this team tournament. Will anyone be able to put the brakes on their forward momentum? Tune in this week to find out more!

DEBUTS: Welcome Kaelith Raventhorn!

ADVANCEMENTS: No rank increases this week.

THE RING OF KLYTUS: The holder for this cycle is Rachael Blackthorne! 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 9

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.

(click column headers to sort the table.)
