The Royal Games

General
The Royal Games is a large event where 12 people fight in a certain area to the death. Although it may seem brutal, due to the dull nature of the weapons, many participants don't actually die. The games are hosted by player astapf, the mayor of the Phoenian town of Rapture. The games will soon be held in many different nations other than Phoenia and will eventually become a worldwide event.

Origin of the name
The games were named after the (constitutional) King of Phoenia, Skippy the gnome.

Origin of the Idea
The idea has been passed around in many unsuccessful games. None had the success and support of major empires or organizations. Player Astapf saw this idea and twisted it in his own way, creating the Royal Games.

Getting Support
Astapf, the player with the idea of the games needed to put that idea into motion. He contacted the leader of a phoenian city named Klatch and, along with a friend of his named firedragone1, Started to plan out the games and arena. Astapf then contacted the United Nations Of Eldham to get support. The UNE accepted and became a supporter of the games aswell as otto olea.

First Arena Construction
The first arena was constructed over the period of 2 days. The theme of the arena was "tiny arena" and was set to be the first arena of the royal games. After it was completed it only needed to be maintained and be ready for the games.
