Challenge Stick
The Challenge Stick is an ancient artifact conferring near unlimited power on its rightful owner. Once each year the owner of the challenge stick must issue a challenge to an equally arrogant individual over which they will duel for ownership of the Challenge Stick.
No one knows the true origin of the Challenge Stick. Every culture has at least one legend about the Challenge Stick, some are more fantastic than others.
Rules of the Challenge Stick
To start a challenge, the ‘rightful owner’ will simply call someone out, say when they will return to duel, and throw the Challenge Stick at the feet of ‘the challenged’.
‘The challenged’ now possess the Challenge Stick, but they are not yet its proper owner. The challenged must accept challenges from any and all comers, anyone that wants the challenge stick may start a duel, the winner of which will take possession of the Challenge Stick and become ‘the challenged’.
When the time has passed the ‘rightful owner’ will return and duel ‘the challenged,’ the winner of this duel will become the new ‘rightful owner’ of the Challenge Stick until they issue a challenge to someone else.
Note:
- Challenges must be issued, and then accepted. No sneak attack duels.
- Duels may happen anywhere at any time.
