5	[[http://vitalsparkoct.deviantart.com/ Vital Spark]] is a OriginalCharacterTournament. It is hosted by [[http://unknown-variable.deviantart.com Uno]] along with two other judges - [[http://ed-the-fourth.deviantart.com Ed]] and [[http://eva-wings.deviantart.com Eva]]. The story begins with Lord Drakonius Agememnon Fortunidia Dionsian Servantilius The Third, Lord of Darkness, Master of Blood, and Emperor of Charred Souls, noticing a most unsettling event: Worlds are dying. In a most peculiar and unnatural way - leaving only a tiny spark of life. If it was only a single planet, it would be of much less dire importance. In his usual nonchalant way, Drakonius chooses a tournament as the most viable option to return the missing energy to the individual worlds - and save time and energy on his part. As seen in the [[http://fav.me/d4a39u2 Prologue]], Drakonius and his colleagues Raymond, Ciro and Fiona, then take off to find contestants from worlds all across TheMultiverse.
6
7	The plot then follows that if a character (or set of two characters) decide to enter the tournament, they will be granted their [[MakeAWish deepest desire]] - whether it be simply having extreme luck or money, to ruling a world or possibly bringing the dead back to life. Each contestant was given a Spark Gem in which to insert their powers and then promptly [[TrappedInAnotherWorld wisked away]] to the [[MagicalLand Rest House]] where they must remain until the end of the tournament. The only way out is through [[CoolGate Paintings]] around the buildings.
