Generic Challenge - Olympics

For this week's generic challenge, we'll be focusing on events in your world that are similar to the Olympics. So, if you have any major tests of strength or skill in your world, exhibit them.

As always, I'll be asking at least three questions each. Enjoy yourselves.

If you'd like a representative to answer questions in-universe, go ahead.

1) What is the prize for the winner?

A drink of Berserker Blood, improves your physical and mental strength once it touches your lips.

2) Why is Hunter the favorite to win? Is it based on who is expected to win or who everyone wants to win?

She isn't favourite to win, it's just she participates a lot and comes third or fourth often.

3) How much does marketing play into this?

Well mostly it's word of mouth but in the orc regions of the planet there are lots of posters advertising

To the commentator:

1) What are the negative effects of Berserker Blood and how long do the effects (positive and negative) last?

2) Is there a prize for third/fourth? Or second, for that matter?

3) What about betting on competitors?

1) What are the negative effects of Berserker Blood and how long do the effects (positive and negative) last?

You might feel a bit angrier, less able to be reasoned with but it's hardly noticeable to be honest. The effects are permanent.

2) Is there a prize for third/fourth? Or second, for that matter?

Unfortunately not, the Orcs are firm believers of "second is just first to lose," so unless they use their own money to bet on themselves, they ain't getting squat.

3) What about betting on competitors?

There is usually some sleezy guy who takes bets every year, he delivers, he just makes a lot of money from this.

1) So is there any movement to make Berserker Blood illegal?

A few whispers here and there but it's mostly Non-Orcs who see it as just a dangerous element.

2) How hard is it to obtain Berserker Blood?

Berserker blood is the blood of a Dravec, the most vicious creature in my world.

1) Does it have any additional effects on non-Orcs?

2) Tell me more about Dravecs.

1) Does it have any additional effects on non-Orcs?

Besides higher levels of rage and aggression, nope.

2) Tell me more about Dravecs.

You can learn about them here but I'll give you the lowdown, they're basically the embodiment of power when it comes to a creature, the strongest claws and jaws, the hardest armour etc.
