Panoply

The Panobly is the regalia offered to the winner of a Tournament upon ascending to his new office. It is constituted from the offerings of the contestants. Arms, armor and works of art are the norm, with the value proportionate to the office to be won and the participant's confidence in winning.

It is both a way to honor the winner with fine gear, riches and artefacts and a way to limit the number participants, acting as a sort of entry fee.
