Straight from Idyllwild, California, Maximus Mighty-Dog Mueller II (also known simply as Mayor Max) is on his way to the tournament! Holding the position of mayor for 7 years, he's no stranger to dealing with heated politics during his campaign. With his cute and fluffy appearance, he's sure to win over dog-lovers from around the world! Also, tagging along him is U.S. California Representative Gil Cisneros to assist him with communications, although he won't directly interfere with the tournament.

Lyrics:

[Verse]
Hey
I was born where the hard days shape your skin
In a place where you must fight before you win
With the ones you called the lost
You called the lost
With the ones you called the lost
You called the lost

[Pre-Chorus]
Hey
But that fire in my chest
Kept me standing through the rest
’Cause you said
We could rise as kings

[Chorus]
And now I see beasts
I see beasts
I see beasts
But they’re just like me

[Verse 2]
Hey
I grew up where the broken learn to stand
Where you find your strength by holding someone’s hand
With the ones you turned away
You turned away
With the ones you turned away
I learned to stay

[Pre-Chorus]
Hey
And that fire in my chest
Made me stronger than the rest
’Cause you said
We could rise as kings

[Chorus]
And now I see beasts
I see beasts
I see beasts
But they’re just like me

[Bridge ]
I was born where the storms can shake your name
But I learned that every heart can beat the same
All the ones you called the beasts
Called the beasts
All the ones you called the beasts
They stand with me

Beasts

WARNING: This tournament will contain unsettling elements, depictions of inner turmoil, and unreasonably large sourcelists. If you aren't comfortable with that, please do not follow the tournament. However, there will be no outright horror, and no one will die. 

A moderately high stakes, lore-heavy, four character round robin tournament based around liminal spaces and memories. Heavily inspired by Squaremash.
