WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT: This will be a contest Hosted by the Acadamie Arcanus in which the Wizards of Temuair will demonstrate our considerable Arcane Might by venturing into the depths of Mileth Crypt, Dubhaim Castle, and House Macabre, destroying everything in our path...MWAHAHAHAH. There will be prizes and a noble title bestowed upon the winners in each category by the Acadamie Arcanus to be enshrined upon our ledgers.

DETAILS: We will meet in the wastelands, all participating members will then group according to the insight grouping detailed below. We will then venture downward into the gloomy depths of the appropriate dungeon. The goal is to be the individual from your ranking to venture furthest into the appropriate dungeon. Each contestant is allowed to begin with 6 Hydele Deums, 6 Personica Deum, 6 Red Potions and as many fiors as they can carry. There will be rescue parties posted to aid anyone who dies to retrieve their death pile. We will need the aid of non-wizards to serve in rescue parties, a small compensation will be given to reimburse you for your time and efforts. Aislings interested in serving in rescue parties should contact the rescue party dispatcher.
