Drachenfest Australia 24: The Champions Tourney

At Drachenfest, the kind of fighting that takes place is a little different from other live-action roleplay events. There's a bigger focus on theatrics and the creation of an exciting scene versus just focusing on hit points and winning. That's what this specific tournament is trying to display, so while someone might get "beaten" if their performance was better, they actually come out the winner. The guild hosting the tourney actually teaches people how to fight this way at the event, so if you go, it's well worth stopping by for a class!
