The Feats of Strength

On the surface The Feats of Strength is a place to build your physical fitness and skills in a Gymnasium setting. There are several obstacle courses set up for building agility and athleticism, as well as weights for strength training, and various methods of testing one's endurance. Yet the focus is on strength, and those who excel in this field are held to a higher regard than the rest. The equipment is state of the art and suited to any degree of skill level.

There is also space for those who wish to learn to fight, either wrestling, stick-fighting. They are also open to anyone who wishes to teach or learn to fence, although they don't have a dedicated attendant yet for blade fencing.

There are also areas set up for relaxation after a workout, and spaces for personal coaching and physical therapy.

Affectionately referred to by the more academically inclined clientele as the 'Sock Drawer', Rakvald has offered the University a discount for students who seek physical fitness training from it. It is located in Scalvoristown, a convenient distance from the University.

Rakvald quietly uses this location to scout people who are ripe for enhancement, whether through hone or grafting. Or for people, he may wish to make a totem of.

Max Lunk

Name: Max Lunk
Race: Lotharro
Age: Saun 4th 669
Title: Title - Manager
Skills: Business Management: 30, Strength: 30, Intimidation: 30, Endurance: 10
Other Information: The head honcho when Rakvald isn't available. While his main duty is to make sure the business is run smoothly, he often takes it upon himself to walk the floor, and see how trainees are getting along with their fitness goals. He takes a tough love approach for most training purposes.

He's powerfully built, with a burly physique and graying black hair with a thick beard. He often walks around shirtless, in order to impress the newbies. He stands at around 6' tall.

Mede Lunk

Name: Mede Lunk
Race: Lotharro
Age: 17th of Zi'Da 695
Title: Title - Senior Attendant - Weapons Specialist
Skills: Teaching: 30, Combat: Axes & Bludgeons: 30, Combat: Unarmed: 30, Strength: 10.
Other Information: Standing at around 5'11", he's the firstborn son of Max Lunk, and was brought in as an attendant on the establishment of the Gymnasium. The more aggressive and belligerent of the Lunk sons, Mede gets his aggression out by engaging in spirited contests of arms and wrestling. While he's nothing shy of respectful to those who wish to learn and try their hand at wrestling and fighting in general, he tends to stare down his nose at those who are only in the Gymnasium for its athletic program. Max Lunk occasionally has occasion to slap him a few times upside the head, in order to get him to behave among the people who only want to exercise and practice their strength and athletics.

Lowe Lunk

Name: Lowe Lunk
Race: Lotharro
Age: 67th of Zi'Da 698
Title: Title - Senior Attendant
Skills: Teaching: 30, Athletics: 30, Strength: 30, Caregiving: 10.
Other Information: Standing at around 5'10", he's the secondborn son of Max Lunk and was brought in as an attendant on the establishment of the Gymnasium. He has a more conciliatory attitude toward the trainees and often has been seen to roll his eyes at his father's antics when he tries to show off his prowess at various athletic demonstrations for the newbies. Lowe is a patient and decent trainer, with just a slight competitive edge when it comes to hands-on demonstrations of athletics.

A Bounty on Emperor Bats

On the 60th of Vhalar, a letter arrives to the Feats of Strength, which Max Lunk reads. As he's reading, his eyes wideen, and he frantically goes to jotting down the details recorded in it. He ropes Mede Lunk and Lowe Lunk into the inscription, and then sends them out to post notices across Scalvoristown.

The mage, Rakvald, located in Rharne, is looking to acquire a live example of an Emperor Bat. He will pay a fortune to acquire as many of the creatures as possible, safely transported to Rharne. Dead samples, so long as they're well-preserved and not in a late state of decay, are also acceptable at a lower rate.

These notices go across the Island, eventually making their way to most townships and villages in Scalvoris.

He won't accept more than one live sample of the Emperor bat from any one individual. He will accept several dead samples, however, so long as they meet the standards of preservation he requires.

Rakvald can be contacted in Rharne by letter, once the contract has been accepted and the Emperor bat acquired. Rakvald can be contacted here

OOC

Rakvald will pay 30 wp for a live Emperor bat. Any dead bats, will get no more than 5 wp each. Rakvald can be contacted here
