As we play through the Olympiad I will post notes on how I have presented it to my players. I hope that if anyone else adopts the Olympics for their own campaign that these notes prove helpful. Prior to the games Andru cut deals with Tomojak, Valkan Riogan and Celestia Silverfist to have the Bralian GIff, Valkan's Legion, and The War Drakes assist with peacekeeping during the event. In our game the Unhuman War II is going on and both the Scro and the Elves are sending contestants. A clear path is made from teh edge of the gravity plane to the docks, with Bralian Navy and allied ships lined up on either side to form and honor guard fo the runner. On the edge of the gravity plane a small asteroid has been brought in. It is here that 11 priests from the Olympian Church hold their ritual to light the torch. (just like on ancient earth).The Priest of Zeus, of course, leading the rite. The Priest of Hermes then begins the relay, using boots of star striding to run across the gravity plane to the Rock. Once at the Rock the relay continues, with Gen Mors Dairbad (Gen of Bralian Military)doing the last leg of the relay, ending with the lghting of a huge torch in the Arena of Frun. (NOTE: the fire used on the torches is a variant of continual flame. It will burn brightly enough to illuminate the sky around the arena, but will generate no heat. It will extinguish itself at the end of the Grand Ball at Castle Skyview where the winners are received by Andru and his court. It cannot start fires, Andru would have disallowed it if that were a possibility) More Soon... (At a minimum once a week as they play through the Olympics story arc...)
