Introduction of AI Duels

The first rounds of the BlackSand Tournament II (The Second Tournament) will be decided through AI generated lore.

For each duel, the Council will feed ChatGPT with a descriptive introduction of each figter, to then request the narration of their duel. Whichever fighter emerges victorious in the AI-generate lore wins the round.

Guidelines for Duel Input

To inform the AI narration, the holders of each fighter will be required to submit a short description of their figther according to the below guidelines:

  • provide a description of your fighter to describe their fighting style, abilities, weapons of choice in no more than 50-70 words
  • do not include any wording that directly makes the fighter invincible, victorious or that directly counter an opponent (e.g. fighter A always wins agains fighter B)

The Council reserves the right to refuse any submission at their own discretion.
