Solemn Jester
Smiling God of Fools
Long ago there were four kingdoms ruled by four kings. Each king sought more power power enough to be equals to even that of the gods. One day a messenger dressed in a black cloak came to each king delivering to them a message. "Listen oh great kings for I have a decree from the gods. Starting next year there shall be a tournament held by the gods and each kingdom is to attend. Along with any warriors they dem capable. The winner of this competition will gain the powers of the gods and the losers will be forced to repeat the contest throughout the years to come. Whether they be living or dead." So the kings did as the stranger said and went to the location he had given unknown to any mortal man and only able to be found if you had the summoners invite.A seal of one of the four clans proving your loyalty and right to compete. The four kingdoms battle one on one for many days and many night until only two stood. The two kings who where bloody and exhausted charged at each other and then both fell.With no winner the four kingdoms where furious. They had lost both the kings and agreat majority of there kingdom. So as there kingdoms where weakened and they where in the process of naming the next airs to thethrone the sky grew dark and storm clouds roled in. It was Abaddon the fallen god he had tricked the kingdoms into slaughtering each other in order to take over the land of the mortals. But the gods would not have this they used there power to protect the four kingdoms and seal Abaddon away. Now every year the clans meet to battle In order to keep the gods magic strong and Abaddon sealed away. The promise of becoming a god still going to the winner of the tournament but only if they can defeat all who challenge them and keep there position as champion for the next three years. The warriors of the four clans now blessed by the gods andknown as summoners able to bring forth the souls of gods demons and even there ancestors all battle in order to become the summoned king so that they may vanquish Abaddon upon his return.
Years later now in the yethemselveshe four clans descendants of the four great kings still stand. They continue this tradition as always meeting on the correct date to do battle. But now the gods have thrown in wild cards adding normal people who know very little in the clans into the summoned king tournament. They have began banding together in order to win the tournament themselves. They are lead by a mysterious leader who seems to be a former member of one of the four clans. There Group is filled with people who have never heard of the summoned king tournament and old members who have been kicked out of there clans or just decide to leave. Now with new foes the four clans realize there may be a greater battle then they expected coming.
