Sabra La Tau

Who: Everyone
Where: The arena.
When: Day 223, 
What: game 142
[The call to the arena is that of a lone note, spreading throughout the cavern.

Inside the arena, instead of the usual sand and buildings, you find yourself on a peninsula with the throne upon it. Eight boats, nothing more then canoes with canons upon the bows, rest on the sand, as well as eight roped off changing areas. The Dude sits upon the throne, conch in his lap and surfboard in hand.

The air is hot and humid: there is fog, covering the water. You can't see more then ten feet in front of you, once you get away from shore.]

Where: The arena.
When: Day 123, afternoon
What: Pimp My Raft.

The strains of Sloop John B ring out in the ears of the select few as you are called to the arena. Now, when you enter it, the Arena has been transformed into a beach again. In the middle, by the Judge's throne, there is a table with various piles of tools and other interesting items.

In the water, there stands six rafts, each with a sail corresponding to the team's color.

Who: Anyone
Where: The Arena
When: Day 117, evening
What: The going-away party of Gaius Octavian

[Today in the arena, a very particular Call was given out, heard by any outside, and those inside who might have been listening.. It is a strange octave, almost regal, with the deep sound of brass horns and cadence of drums. As one gets closer, they might hear something a bit like winds, but of a strange harmony that doesn't match any instrument a Blank may have remembered. Strings on a slightly different chord and pitch, the range dancing at a joyous counterpoint to the solemn, majestic trumpets.

Those who have heard, one in particular, and all those following the unique sound, will find the Arena unusually appointed. Banners of all teams colors stretch overhead, red taking the pinnacle spot.

Without the trappings of a game, what seems to be laid out is a long table, a multitude of chairs and covered plates sitting upon table cloth of Pyxis red and Cygnus pink. The music seems to come from all around, and the general area before the tables seems to be open, inviting for those inclined to dance. There is a less austere table, far to the back, which seems to have simple snacks, one single platter of fruit, and some juices and wines.

In the throne, presiding over it all is the statue of the King, expression thoughtful as it overlooks the festivities.]

Where: The Arena
When: Day 89, midnight.
What:Game 62

There's a guitar solo playing tonight in the East Block.

If you follow it to the arena, the Dude sits upon it with not only his surfboard leaning against the throne, but with a guitar in hand.

"Little dudes, what is up?"

Who: Vupecula, Pavo, Monoceros, Pyxis, Canis.
Where: The Arena.
When:Afternoon, day 72.
What: Game.

If you're on one of those teams, you can hear some happy music drawing you to the Arena. The arena is somehow, now, an tropical island. An island with a tiny volcano on it, serving as a firepit. There are also palm trees everywhere, and building, thatched with palm leaves, the door of which is locked for now.

On the throne is a judge none of you have ever seen before...you think? His mask does make it rather hard to tell. He's holding a surfboard in one hand, and his other is raised in a shaka.

"What is up, my little blank dudes! Are you totally stoked for the game?"
