Dreamscape All-Game Tournament

Hello and welcome! This is the first attempt at an all-game competition, courteously judged by the staff here at Dreamscape. The tournament's got a few different categories available for competition, and a few sections beneath them. It is organized into two main sets of competitions, however. The first is for players, and has events such as 'creative writing,' 'character creation,' etc. The second is for characters, and has a few requirements (discussed later) but, basically, you compete with a specific character.

"Full Stats" refers to a set of information about a character. It includes physical descriptions, name, age, gender, etc., as well as history and personality descriptions. 

I have entered all the forms I have received on this page. All players are listed beneath the event they are entered in, and all characters are listed both under their events and at the bottom. Please review and make sure all is correct.

Player Competitions:

Creative Writing: Contestants receive a prompt, and are required to write a story or piece that meets the requirements of the prompt.

Rules:

  • story must be no longer than 5000 words
  • must meet all requirements of prompt

Entries:

 Character Creation: Contestants create a character, and compete for who has created the best character. 'Best' is decided by a panel of judges grading on a rubric.

Rules:

  • Character is graded on creativity, strengths, weaknesses, abilities, history, personality, and others.

Entries:
Poetry: similar to Creative Writing, though contestants must turn out poetry rather than stories. 

Rules:

  • poetry must be no longer than 40 lines
  • must meet all requirements of prompt

Entries:

 Playing Characters: Contestants are given a character with minimal guidelines, and must play that character.

Rules:

  • Must complete all activities given. 
  • Character must stay within guidelines set, though improv within those guidelines is encouraged.

Character Competitions:

Divided into On-Site and Off-Site. 

  • On-Site Characters must be joined and an active part of one of the Dreamscape games, and have been a part of that game for at least a month prior to the tournament. (Scythe players: find the location of your first post with that character as proof of presence in that game)
  • Off-Site Characters may be from other, non-Dreamscape games, or may be recently created by their players. 
  • Most Competitions designed for medieval humans or humanoids. Sci-fi and Vampyre competitions where noted.
  • Powerplaying will result in immediate disqualification, and godplaying will result in your character being marked down.
  • All Characters must follow Dreamscape rules for behavior, meaning no profanity, no pornography, etc., etc.
On-Site Competitions: Off-Site Competitions:
Medieval Fighters: Much like a traditional, round-robin tournament. Each fighter will fight every other fighter once. Whether they win or lose depends on their roleplay, not just on their character and fighting skills. Whoever has the most 'wins' at the end of the tournament will win this competition. 

Rules:

  • May be of any gender, persuasion, etc., but must use conventional, medieval weapons. No magic. 
  • Any skills your character has must be backed up either by history, or common sense. A battle-hardened thirty-something warrior will have plenty of skill but less agility, for instance.
  • Characters must submit a full stats prior to competition.

Entries:

  • Crestay Threffall
  • Chloe
 (On- and Off-Site both)

Medieval Scenarios: Contestants are grouped together into one set, and a situation is given as a lot. The different characters are given different roles that they must act out. Characters are judged on how well they play their role, and how well they play their character within the role.

Rules:

  • Characters must submit full stats prior to competition.
  • A selection of three scenarios, based on character type, are available for entry. Roles will be assigned within each scenario, based to some extent on the history submitted (for instance, if yours is a warrior, they will likely get a warrior's role.)
  • Each character within a scenario will be ranked, compared with their fellow competitors. 

Entries:

  • Crestay Threffall
Sci-Fi and Vamp Scenarios: Same as the Medieval Scenarios; there will be a category for Sci-fi and Vamp characters, and different choices within those for different character types. 

Rules:

  • Characters must submit full stats prior to competition.
  • A selection of three scenarios, based on character type, are available for entry. Roles will be assigned within each scenario, based to some extent on the history submitted (for instance, if yours is a warrior, they will likely get a warrior's role.)
  • Each character within a scenario will be ranked, compared with their fellow competitors. 
Medieval Special Weapons Fighters: Similar to the Medieval Fighters competition, though each character may have a special weapon, such as a trident, a net, or something otherwise unusual.

Rules:

  • May not use magic.
  • Must submit a full descritpion of the special weapon prior to competition. Weapon may have one special ability of reasonable proportions. Meaning, you cannot have the world's most deadly poison on your weapon, nor can you have one that fells your opponent at a touch. Be reasonable.
  • Must submit full stats prior to competition.
Hand-to-Hand Fighters: May be of any genre, similar to the other Fighters competitions. No weapons of any persuasion. Whatsoever.

Rules:

  • No magic, no weapons.
  • Must submit full stats prior to competition.

Entries:

  • Chloe
