Kyo has posted a public challenge on Bedlam in this topic to anyone who is willing to spar with her between the hours of noon and midnight on a particular Sunday. Several people have already had their characters express an interest in participating, and this is still open to others. However, in order to make this situation work, we'll be doing this in a bit of a specific way. Rules regarding Kyo's sparring challenge are as follows:
- Each fight between Kyo and a challenger will be run as a separate thread in "liquid time." Participants should specify a vague time frame (noon, afternoon, evening, or night) during which their character approaches Kyo at the training center, but beyond this, the timing of each sparring match will be kept vague. By doing this, sparring sessions can be run simultaneously with each other, so that no player has to wait for other fights to finish before their thread can happen. This also means that events which are to take place after this event do not necessarily have to wait for all fights to finish.
- Spectators can join in on threads that take place with a specific chosen time frame (listed above) but a special rule will be enforced with regard to these players. Thread segments that take place before and after fights will be run as normal social threads with a standard turn order, but during the sparring matches, only myself and the player in control of the challenger will actively post. If that player is also in control of a spectator, they should be vague about what is going on among characters not participating in the fight, as it will be impossible to roleplay interactions with other spectators until the match has ended.
- Kyo has a "prize" that she intends to give to a character who manages to impress her in a specific way, but this is not tied specifically winning that character's fight with her; roleplay during your interactions with Kyo will be more of a deciding factor. The recipient will not be chosen until all fights have concluded, and will be passed on to that character after a future plot event. Winning earlier or completing a thread earlier than other players will not improve your character's chances.
- Players may challenge Kyo with as many characters as they wish, but may only participate in one active sparring thread at a time.
- Players who have not posted in the associated Bedlam thread or else notified me of their intention to participate via direct message on Discord will no longer be allowed to participate after September 1st. The associated Bedlam thread will be locked at that time.
