Is it possible for a quick glimpse at a few NPC contenders (past or present)? Just so I have an idea what I'm going for or would that be included in the dynasty info (eg past battles). I'm not actually building my guy to win this, he's probably going to wind up in a box for daring to annoy someone twice his size haha. 

Edit: Oh yes, I was also wondering wether magic would be present in this system?
