All Spring Fling Proceeds will be donated to the families of Valkur's Roar Mine and Quarry Workers
frc.proboards.com/thread/37147/valkurs-roar-spring-fling
Rules in Full:
The City of Valkur’s Roar will provide the set-up for the joust, including lists, bleachers, and lances. ((Lances provided by VR will have the “Knockdown” property, so a PC can participate in the joust, even if the PC does not have the “Knockdown” feat.))
Jousters must provide their own horses.
Entry fee is 100 gold. (All proceeds go to Valkur's Roar Miners and Quarrymen)
The winning jouster will (1) be acclaimed throughout the Western Reaches as the champion of the joust at the Spring Fling & Faire in Honour of Lady Gorgotha, (2) have the right to name the Queen of Love and Beauty for the Spring Fling & Faire in Honour of Lady Gorgotha, and (3) receive a “Lady Gorgotha” plush toy.
Jousters will compete on horses. In every round, the first jouster to un-horse ((knock down)) their opponent *twice* wins.
If a jouster is not un-horsed in a ride, jousters will circle back to the start of the lists and ride again. ((Only the first KD attempt in each ride counts. The game mechanics might give a jouster a second KD attempt before the jousters can break off, but that’s OOC, and the second attack won’t count.))
This is a joust. It’s a test of rider, horse, and mounted combat skills. It’s not a test of magic-using ability, equipment, singing, etc. ((This means no casting of any offensive, defensive, attribute-enhancing, or other spell, and no using any potion, scroll, wand, or other item that confers a spell, either before or during any joust. It also means no use of any ability that needs to be activated, including bard song. It also means no magic rings, amulets, cloaks, gloves, belts, boots, shields, armour, or helms. Mundane rings, amulets, cloaks, gloves, belts, boots, shield, armour, or helms are permitted. Helms that provide +1 concentration are permitted. Mundane equipment, including shields and armour, will be available for purchase at the joust.))
This is a joust. Unchivalrous behaviour is not allowed. ((No curse song. No taunt.))
“Mystery knights” are not permitted. Jousters must compete as themselves.
Healing after each round is permitted.
Seeding and progression will be based in part on the number of entrants.
Decisions by the joust committee about rules, seedings, and all other matters (including a decision to disqualify any jouster who violates the rules) are final and unappealable.
