accelerated regeneration rates! Please make note of the following scheduled
events taking place on the weekend:

The Barbarian Hero Challenge Opening Ceremony
June 5th - 3pm EST, 12pm Server Time
Another challenge has been laid down by the gods of the realm. Find the most
impressive wild-fighter! They will display their fury for all to see. The
contest begins in the Teronian Arena and will spill forth after food, merriment,
and the spelling out of the challenges before the competing warriors.

Last Fighter Standing
June 5th - 4pm EST, 1pm Server Time
Fighters will be ushered into the Coliseum pits simultaneously! See who has the strength, endurance, and skills to survive this competition. What tactics will the combatants bring forth in this gruesome kill fest!

Everclear Cliffs Climbing
June 5th - 7pm EST, 4pm Server Time
The contest is climbing! Endurance will be tested. A survival match to the end.
With nothing but a few flags, the barbarians must stake each cliff along Lake
Everclear. Gather at the north face for the beginning, see the winner take the
final cliff at the south end.

Bare-Knuckle Brawl
June 5th - 10pm EST, 7pm Server Time
Barbarians battle using nothing but what the gods and goddesses of Pyrathia gave
them! Double elimination fights will be broadcast for spectator's safety. This competition will be held in the Empire's Coliseum.

Ferocious Warcry
June 6th - 3pm EST, 12pm Server Time
Spectators have the option to judge the barbarians in demonstrations of their most awe inspiring skill - the barbarian's berserk battle rage. Watch them get all riled up! This competition will be held in Narloch's Pass, under the watchful eye of the aged master himself.

Besting the Best
June 6th - 9pm EST, 6pm Server Time
Competitors will face off in a race to hunt down and kill Tagg, the former Hero of Barbarians. This culminating event will mark the end of one Champion's reign, and the beginning of another. Bear witness as fighters pit youthful fitness against aged wisdom. The location of this competition will be announced before the start.

The Barbarian Hero Challenge Closing Ceremony
->To Follow Immediately After the end of Besting the Best
Two months of endurance, fury, and fighting have tested the mettle of
the barbarians who seek the title. See which has the necessary strength to
endure all of Pyrathia's many challenges for them. Inside the Teronian Arena,
gather again to see who was the true Hero of Barbarians!

Every event shall include free food and drink as well as the chance to earn a
commendation from one of the existing Heroes for participating as a judge,
volunteer, or any generally Heroic behavior!
