Lornius Corporate Challenge

The Lornius Corporate Challenge (LCC) is a two-on-two tournament that puts teams of players against other teams in combat against each other. The LLC is a crowd favorite that has turned many of the characters in Althanas into legends.

I. Registration

Registration for the LCC is simple; merely have ONE member of the team post a reply to the registration thread that includes the names of both participants and a team name. The registration is limited to 24 teams or 48 total players. If you do not have a team but still wish to participate, merely post your interest and you will randomly placed with another individual to complete a team. Multiple characters by a single player are acceptable in this tournament; however, they are not recommended.

II. Rules
  • Only registered teams and players will be allowed to participate in this tournament. If your character has not been approved you will not be allowed to join the tournament at all.
  • The battles will run exactly like a Citadel battles where each fighter will be completed healed between battles. Between each Round there will be a 5 day period of rest for updates to be posted around Althanas.
  • The first person to post will set the setting for the battle. Remember that Lornius is a closed off island far north of Corone. It is very remote, desolate and intolerable. All battles must use a portion of the island as their setting. A map has been posted here to detail the area.
  • The standard rules of battle of Althanas also apply for the duration of this tournament. That means no power gaming will be tolerated. OOC should be kept to a minimum, if it is anything more than a clarification it should be kept in a PM.
  • There are NO disqualifications due to absence. If it is certain that a fellow team member will not return for a short time or falls during the battle, the other player can remain to battle. There are no EXP penalties for non-participation, however wildcard points will be deducted for non-approved extended absenses.
  • Each Round will last exactly two weeks, and must be over 10 posts of actual RP to receive EXP for the battle. At 12:00 AM after the round is over, the threads will be closed and the fights will be judged over a short resting period.
III. Judgments

Like the Citadel, each player will be given an individual score for their own records where EXP will be derived from. The team score will be an average of the two individual scores. The team with the higher score will advance to the next round. All judgments are FINAL.

IV. Rewards

The winning team will receive 5000 EXP that will be divided in half between the two members as well as a custom title in place of their EXP bars. The winning team will also become the honorary writers for Lornius. Lornius will be located in a special sub-forum of the Other Regions forum. The writers will have free digression over the course of RP that the area will take. They will not, however, be given any moderating powers. The second place team will receive 2500 EXP that will be split between the two members. The third place team will receive 1250 EXP that will be split between the two members.
