Alright, as the title says I have a tournament in eberron, in Sharn, that my party will be participating in, if you remember me from the low op party thread, same party.
Human Wizard 5/Rogue 1.
Kalashtar Sorcerer 6.
Warforged Fighter 6 *2 (Cohorts)
The Tournament has a total of 250 Teams, each made of 4 people. Of these teams, generally all teams are going to have this set up.
2 Spellcasters of some sort.
2 Low level warriors.
Only 1 team breaks this mold, it's a team of four Hobgoblin Duskblades. (Straight from MM3, I believe, Maybe MM5.)
Next, there are 3 types of events.
Team Environmental events, where the team has to beat the environment, all 4 can try at this.
Pair against monster events, the pair of spellcasters has to beat a monster or monsters with any tricks allowed. No warriors allowed in this event.
Individual spellcasters duke it out, no melee or range attacks not made with a spell are allowed in this battle. Sword attacks with a spell channeled through them are fine. Anything that falls under this rule is also fine, the main one that is not allowed is no dragonfire inspiration.
Now, the scores go as follow. The team event will allow you to score 20 points, the Pair event 10 points, and the individual event 5 points each.
Also are 4 judges, who will be judging each event, in 4 S Categories. Style, Skill, Speed, Supremacy. 5 points can be awarded in each category, factoring in as bonus points. Meaning after 20 bonus points for each event, 4 events total, the maximum score you could get is 120 points.
Style: How flashy you are, explosions, etc. Anything that gets ooh's and ahh's from a crowd work good here.
Skill: Did you exploit the opponent's weakness, did you exploit the environment weakness, if you did, top marks here.
Speed: Did you complete the event swiftly, if you did, top marks here.
Supremacy: Did you complete the event with little to no expenditure in resources (Mainly HP, did you not take a scratch.) If you did, top marks here.
Now we get on to the opponents. For simplicity sake, there are 1000 opponents, almost 500 of them even are warriors, so not eligible for most of the contest. Therefore, I'll just sort out the spell casters, alphabetically, and then the number of them to the right, followed by their level range.
Adept 100 2-5
Artificer 15 2-7
Bard 20 2-7
Beguiler 15 2-7
Cleric 25 2-7
Dread Necromancer 15 2-7
Druid 25 2-7
Dusk Blade 4 MM3/5
Favored Soul 15 2-7
Mage Wright 10 2-5
Sorcerer 100 2-7
Ultimate Magus 1 (Level 9)
Warlock 25 2-7
Warmage 15 2-7
Wizard 100 2-7
Wujen 15 2-7
Everyone that doesn't have a set level, or is a pure NPC class, is determined by 1d6+1. NPC are 1d4+1, and the set ones are already set.
The monsters they could face are below.
Grey Render
4 Worgs
Achaierai
3 Ankhegs
Bullet
2 Cockatrice
Digester
Megaraptor
Dire Boar
Dire Wolverine
2 Medium Elementals of each main type
Ettin
4 Hippogrif
Howler
Five Headed Cyro Hydra
2 Monstrous Scorpion
2 Giant Wasp
Any monster that has a number is the amount that the pair will face.
The environmental events have not really been nailed down, need cheap suggestions for the tournament area, thinking so far, swamp, lava field, ice field, maze with traps, main goal in all is to get through.
Finally, I need suggestions on which 15-16 teams make it through, based on this. Any teams can be combined, except these 3 which will be in the top 16 if I can help it.
Ultimate Magus + Level 2 Mage Wright
Level 7 Bard + Level 7 Cleric
Duskblades (Not a necessary one to get in, if you can argue a better team to go in.)
Also need a required amount of points for the party to make, based on the scoring criteria above. I had set it at 60, but I don't know if this is too low or high.
To the flavor, this is a semi annual event, in which mages compete against each other to show their spellcasting abilities, to possibly win the prize. A Mage who has not been seen in a few events has come back with hired help (Ultimate Magus), and the winners of the last controversial competition (The Bard and Cleric) are back as well.
Any help you can offer would be appreciated, thank you.
Hopefully you can give me some ideas on how to explain every team making it in that does so, because I'll be giving a play by play of some events if my party goes to watch them.
Pair the teams however you want to, I made a d1000% if it's necessary, of all the teams. Just note that a few teams have already been decided. The Ultimate Magus is pretty arrogant, and he doesn't work well with others.
Individual facings are paired up like this.
For the party, if they roll on the d1000% Table-
1-2%- Ult Magus
3-10%- Dusk Blade
11-30%- Mage Wright
31-70%- Bard
71-100%- Warmage
101-300%- Adept
301-350%- Cleric
351-400%- Warlock
401-600%- Sorcerer
601-630%- Artificer
631-660%- Dread Necromancer
661-690%- Wujen
691-720%- Beguiler
721-750%- Favored Soul
751-800%- Druid
801-1000%- Wizard.
Again, thank you for your help and commentary.
