In
a bit of salute to a game run previous by a certain Dave, and the
fact that one of the players has already voiced their own interest
in incorporating it into this game, and frankly I thought it was
a great idea when I’d first heard about it, dueling will be
present in our story. Duelling will be a facet of Kindred society
as there is the arena of the Elysium, not all can claim social interaction
as their strong suit. Instead they step into the circle and claim
back dignity, reward, or whatever it may be that they get from the
circle.
Having always been an Invictus city, which has resulted in support
of a strong tradition of oath taking within its ranks, duelling
has been very popular. Humiliation within the ranks can always be
offset by the humiliation of your rival publicly. For others honor
is found in the circle, disputes settled permanently. Death is rare,
but it has happened. All of the covenants present in the politics
of the city have at one point or another had a member enter the
circle.
