For many turns whispers have filled the ears of Hingashi citizens; rumors of violence, darkness, depravity— a secret culmination of shadowy powers that work their hands in all manners of business throughout the whole of the One Sea. Even with the Garlean Occupancy, these families found ways to reconvene and keep their ever intangible power in place. These families, the ‘yakuza’ families of the East, found means by which not only to keep a revolving door of power in place: but also a means to orchestrate organized chaos for their very own entertainment.

And it rises, rearing its bestial head.

[BALMUNG SERVER]

From the shadows does the Mujihigi return to the world once more; a single crest that strikes a myriad of emotions into those who gaze upon it. For some, determination and excitement. For others? Fear.

(A special thank you to @wayward-whelpling for helping me finish the emblem! Go check out his work!)

WHAT IS THE MUJIHIGI?

The Mujihigi is a b-monthly underground fighting event, open to all underworld/syndicate and yakuza RPers on Balmung, including those with links to gambling and trafficking. But it is more than that. The Mujihigi is a storytelling event, a story in which is open to all who want to participate!

In this fighting den, powerful criminal organizations/families and/or those with underworld ties from around the world will pit their fighters against one another for the glory of the champion’s title (Yokozuna), the riches acquired through bets (IC gil,) and for the honor of showcasing martial prowess and strength in the name of your family.

Each Mujihigi consists of 9 fighters: Shin-Yokozuna (Current Champion) included and is preceded by ‘Hype Night.’

WHAT IS HYPE NIGHT?

Hype Night is an event preceding every Mujihigi that is more of a social gathering of aforementioned malignants where they mingle, place bets, make backroom deals and grow their influence within the organization for chances at betting on fighters for even more riches. It is a night of celebration, with performances and plenty of connections to be made.

Bets will begin on Hype Night and end as fighting starts on Fight Night!!

ARE THERE ANY PRIZES?

The person who can successfully guess the bracket results correctly (match by match, including the winner,) will receive a $25 mogstation prize of their choice. (Can be multiple items totaling to $25 as well.) || US & Canadian Residents only, excluding Quebec. No physical prizes, digital delivery, no purchase necessary.

The winner of the Mujihigi will receive a cleaned and colored sketch of their character in kesho-mawashi and haori reflecting the emblem (kamon) of their sponsor by @jeaart, to be delivered on the artist’s schedule.

Information for how to sign up and place your bets will begin on Hype Night!! Can you correctly guess how Fate will weave her story?
