A'right, so here's the basic idea for the arena event which I am planning in the next month. I discussed it with Kozgugore and decided to let it be hosted IC by the OotRB since it will be hosted in the Ring of Trials in Nagrand, orc land (and I am an officer of the Ashen Enclave.)
It is of course been written from an orcs perspective.
PS. Can I count on the OotRB to supply the guards? ;)
-----------------
Trials of Blood
Champion invitational
Lok'tar Ogar!
The Orcs of the Red Blade invites <guild> to participate in the Trials of Blood, once an ancient rite of the orc tribes to decide which could deem itself the fiercest of all tribes. The Trials of Blood will be held in the Ring of Trials in Nagrand, in one moon-cycle. This great arena was once the battle-stage of the most renowned and infamous warriors known on Draenor. Now history will repeat itself.
The three champions of each invited guild may participate in the Trials of Blood. These teams will battle eachother for the pride and glory, and a grand prize of one hundred gold pieces. Surely, <guild> will defend its honour in the arena?
May steel clash and blood be spilled!
-----------------
Basically the Trials of Blood is another arena-style PvP event on invitational held in the Nagrand arena area. <guild> was one of the few that were selected to join us in this event. It's a 3v3 knock-out arena event. The three best, the champions of each guild are expected to join and defend their guild's honour!
Each team will be appointed a location around the arena to prepare for matches. The supporters of each team are asked to sit on the tribune high in the arena, when the matches start. For those without a flying mount: Fear not, we are supplied with warlocks, so you can be summoned up on the tribune, or to Nagrand for that matter.
Points of notice
Can/Can't
Can:
|Use consumables created by own spells. (Healthstone, Mana Emerald etc.)
|Buff teammembers.
|Use any kind of trinkets.
Can't:
|Leave the arena floor.
|Use engineering items, bandages, potions, and other trivial items which are not trinkets.
|Attack the audience.
|Attack the referee.
In case the fight is interrupted by outside players the fight will immediately be considered invalid and repeated.
------------------
Besides the main event there will be several contests in which may be participated. Including, but not limited by, a market, a beer-tag race, a bare-knuckle tournament, and a 'last man standing' tournament.
The guilds that are invited to this event are:
1. Orcs of the Red Blade
2. Ashen Enclave
3. Second Gurubashi Empire
4. Taur Nu Fuin
5. The Horde Watch
6. Assassins
7. Mistrunner Tribe
8. Sixty Thieves
------------------
Sounds like a grand idea, Vaernas! Really looking forward to it. As you said, perhaps we can host some side-events as well while we're at it. It looks like a good location for some drunken backwards racing. ;)
I'll contact you about any remaining matters ingame, as it's getting late to sum it all up now. But I will say once again that you can surely count on us orcs to spice things up a bit and we'll be looking forward to see some proper bloodshed! ;>
Bring it on ya whimps. ::)
((Great idea I'm sure the blades will be there)).
OY YA LAZY PEONS GET TRAINING FOR THIS NOW!
If ya not win this I will beat ya with a dead Elf arm and it will be the wet end.
Sounds fun! maybe one should set up a kind of seer event :)
Sounds awsome.. If I am back by then *mutters something about terrible finacial status IRL* then I'd voulanteer for a guard. Just give the word. :D
Added to the event planner.

Hakon is better than me i think.
Well done Orcs!
CHEER
Ya showed the rest of the horde we are the power to be reckoned with.
Great job by our 3 noble Orcs in the final Trials of Blood battle.
Ya did the tribe proud.
In addition ya stuck it up them Trolls again.
((All round good event even with the ally gankers well done to the people who put it together, (Vaernas for keeping it running)).
((Side note loved the little skirmish out side the Battle grounds I got jumped by a stealth druid and his pinky freinds what a surprise they got when 4 rouges popped out on him nice)). :o :o :D :D
i was sick =(
(( Aww :( perhaps we have enough screens to show you how it was ))
(( my comp was dead, got it running now though. sad I missed it ))
