Lilith Anderson, leading the Falessan Division to victory, takes home the Mad Test Free Overlord Challenge Grant, 10 added wins to her record, and a non test-free grant to give out to any active member of the Duel of Swords community!

As second place Ebon ends his Madness Tournament run with an added 5 wins to his record and a Test Free Challenge Grant that can be used against any eligible Baron of his choice!

Congratulations to Lilith, well tried Ebon, and a big thank you to all who participated in the Madness Tournament this year!

(( OOC Note: As the Myria vs Jewell challenge for Overlord is still ongoing the Mad Test Free Overlord Challenge Grant's 14 day period is paused until Sunday, May 3rd at 6 PM ET (Pending any unforseen changes to scheduling changes). Should this grant not be used within those 14 days it will convert into a normal test-free Overlord Challenge grant that may be used during this cycle (As long as it does not fall within the 14 day grace period before the End of Cycle tournament).

Ebon's Test-Free Barony Challenge Grant and Lilith's Giftable Grant are both usable/giftable now, though the official 14 day period of their usage will begin tomorrow, Friday April 24th at 12 AM. ))

Here's a story. Once upon a time when the Lilith was still a just a fresh little baby hellspawn figuring out her place in Rhydin, she had one of the most baffling encounters of her life. With who might you ask? That's an interesting question. It was a sentient trunk of all things. Who spat out at her none other than a pair of ducky rainboots. To this day, I still have those boots and now the universe has come full circle for me to gift that trunk something of value.

I hereby bequeath my giveaway Baron Challenge Grant to the Babest Babe of the Iron Fists League, Olaf von Trunk. Good luck, Olaf. Make me proud.
