Preshow Facility "Guests of Honor and Dignitaries"

[Karl Jak]

Dante's Abyss is intended to be an event that draws a crowd. Seeing as how it's been going on regularly for several years, you'd have to suspect that it draws bigwigs and 'celebrities' alike and even a few rivals.

List of "Dignitaries" are below, along with any roles they may have throughout the event.  You are free to use these characters, who will be present in the Preshow facility throughout the contest.  Many have NPC profiles.  For those that don't, you should do a some research beforehand. 

• Ron Burgundy (Omniverse News Network anchor and lover of scotch and rich mahogany) -- Ron and Karl have a personal friendship that dates back to before the first Dante's Abyss event was held.
  
• Baron Victor von Magnus (Camelot big wig, Colosseum patron, and lover of giant swords) -- Despite a traditionally tragic heroic backstory, Victor is still the most out-going of the Camelot inner circle, with the exception of the King.
  
• Karl Jak (Syntech CEO and Chariman) and/or "Karl Jak" -- Karl Jak can be found schmoozing about with all the people who help make him 'Omniverse' rich(er).
  
• Vi (Enforcer, Costa del Sol) -- Vi loves to watch fights almost as much as she loves to be in fights
  
• Nathaniel Holden (Triumvir, Darkshire) -- Holden is a representative of the city of Darkshire and a member of its six-person ruling council.
  
• Kamek (Royal Advisor, Koopa Kingdom) -- Kamek is King Bowser's right-hand koopa.
  
• Pepsiman (Spokesperson, PepsiCo, event alumni) -- Pepsiman is here to sell Pepsi products and advertising deals.  Do you require hydration?
  
• Whompt (Mercenary) -- Whompt is an orc mercenary. Whompt may or may not be using this high profile event to sell his services.
  
• Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson (Wrestler, movie star, event alumni) -- The Rock is a somewhat vain but well-meaning body-builder/wrestler/star movie person.  He'll always be willing to sign autographs and do selfies.  He will also be part of the event commentary.
  
• A representative of Smithy, rambling about stars.
  
• A group of Pokemon from Cinnibar Island, trying to fund-raise for 'Vasty Deep Relief'
  
• Official representatives of most other NPC factions are present as well (orcs, dwarves, trolls, etc)
  

This list will likely receive additional updates over the course of the preshow and main event.

Got someone you'd like to see present here in the preshow facility? (a faction representative or an NPC or something?)  Just drop Karl Jak a PM.
