Brawler's league

The brutal bloodsports of the Brawlers’ League is supported by the allfuent and indolent social elite who use their wealth to engage in entertainment of a more "visceral" variety. The kingdom’s 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 Hillfar named Bruel Sunderchin. Reaching out to his network of lowlifes and cutthroats, Sunderchin became ringleader of an annual gladiator tournament that caters expressly to lightfoot’s wealthiest elite.
Those who have become invested members of the League’s events are anonymously delivered a golden coin stamped with their symbol in the weeks leading up to an event. These coins are required for entry into the events, and each of those who wish to join, whether as a patron or sponsor, requires a coin of their own.

Goals

The Brawlers’ League is always in search of hidden and well-guarded locations around the Lightfoot Land (and sometimes other realms) to establish their annual event. A combatant or team is required to have a known and cleared sponsor or manager to enter the event. There are two tiers of bouts; one tier has teams of six battling via single elimination until a victor is declared. The other features single combatants fighting one-on-one, single elimination, until a victor is declared. Killing your opponents isn’t encouraged, but isn’t explicitly discouraged, either. Bets are placed in person at the event, or remotely (via arcane messages and sending stones) from all around lighfoot land.

Relationships

The Brawlers’ League is extremely illegal in all major cities across the Lightfoot Kingdom. Should lawkeepers discover the location of the annual event, the venue would find itself swiftly strangled by the long arm of the law. As such, magical protections and sentinels are placed throughout the event to prevent any unapproved entry, or to wipe the memory of those who do infiltrate.
A common rumor states that numerous political figures who publicly decry the event secretly partake in the gambling, and the location of the event is concealed not only by Magic, but also impenetrable layers of bureaucracy. Kraghammer has hosted the event several times, with most local guard and political clan houses turning a blind eye.
