. For example: You have a fantasy RP? Try having the King of whatever nation write a letter to another, detailing the main conflict at hand for the party, add some exciting words, words that are vague enough to conjure any image but powerful enough to convey the validity of the problem at hand. Think words like: Cataclysm, apocalypse, endless, brink, destruction, terror, etc[/quote]

I actually used this for the Way of the Warrior tournaments. 

I'd have previous victors write letters to the upcoming combatants, mostly telling them not to do it, but telling them about the lobby and what to expect.
