Drafted one year later after Arkaya to SS2 - Southwind, Caina saw immediate success as well due to the leadership of Arkaya and quickly became a force in the league and a very good friend outside the game.

Position : Striker
Genisys Aldrann, the future star and prodigy of the Rage Tournaments.

While her team fell short in the playoffs, it set her up for huge aspirations, all which haven't come to pass yet, as Arkaya emerged and has been in her way ever since.
Hera Jewel
Age : 20
Team : ES3 - Northwind
Position : Striker
Hera Jewel. A now feared name in the league. She chose knives over guns and is still managing to push for averaging the highest kill count each match.

Forging rivalries with literally everyone, Hera is driven by the pure thrill and bloodlust of the sport.
What is the Rage Tournament?
The Rage Tournament is a game or match between two teams similar in style to capture the flag. The only difference is there are other ways to get points. Capturing a flag can boost your score by 10 for each capture, but getting enemy kills also can net you 1 point a piece. Players participate by creating simulacra of themselves and entering into a closed off arena where they are to face off against each other in teams of 12. 7 players of each team are allowed on the field while 5 stay back as reserves. If you are killed in the field of play, you are sent outside the arena for 2 minutes as a penalty. A reserve member can then tag in to replace you for those 2 minutes. If no reserves are available, your team with be at a numbers disadvantage until someone can recover and tag in. The match is played in two 20 minute halves. The team with the most points at the end of the time limit will win. If the game is tied, it immediately goes into sudden death. Sudden death states, once you are killed you are out and no one can tag in. Once one team is fully eliminated, the match is over.
How many teams participate?
Currently there are 4 divisions and 2 conferences. The North and South are one conference and the East and West are another. Each division is split into 5 teams or sectors. This gives the league 20 teams total. Division winners and runner-ups will qualify for the playoffs at the end of a 50 game season.
What are the positions?
Striker is a frontlines player, typically going after the flag and kills in the field. An aggressive position where the player must be good at knowing the arena, locational strategy, and accuracy with their choice of weapon.
Flanker is a midlines player, typically able to assist other Strikers or fall back to asset Defenders. Flanker is a position that needs to have a good grasp of the other two positions and be able to respond and offer support when needed.
Defender is a backlines player, typically in charge of flag defense and keeping the enemy team from advancing. Defenders primary role is to stall, confuse and hold enemy teams while the rest of their team can retreat to assist.
