Brawlers' League
The brutal bloodsports of the Brawlers' League began, unsurprisingly, during the vicious rule of the Abastel dynasty. In that cruel era, many of Olcari's affluent and indolent social elite used their wealth to engage in entertainment of the more "visceral" variety. The kingdom'a poor were already fighting each other for scraps, so why not pay them to literally fight to the death for their amusement?
Some strong, charismatic ruffians used this opportunity to gain social power for themselves, and chief among them was a rough-and -tumble entrepreneur from Vinadre named Bruel Sunderchin. Reaching out to his network of lowlifes and cutthroats, Sunderchin became the ringleader of an annual gladiator tournament that caters expressly to Olcari's wealthiest elite.
Those who have become invested members of the leagues events are anonymously delivered a golden coin stamped with their symbol in the weeks leading up to the event. These coins are required for entry to the events, and each of those who wish to join, whether as a patron or sponsor, requires a coin of their own.
