Grand Melee No. 1: Four Monsters, One Arena

⚔️ Grand Melee No. 1 is here — the Wizard Cinema's monthly free-for-all spectacle. Four monsters enter the Arena of Starlight together: the Dragon, Yester, the Unelder, Veskar, the Hourglass Leviathan, and the Kraken. The four combatants — and the winner — were drawn at random from the approved roster before a single spell was cast.

One arena. One continuous melee of storm-petals, tides, living glass and time itself. No rounds, no ladder — just wonder, and one winner by the luck of the draw.

2026-11-06 — Monster Design Purge remake: the original Grand Melee's cast was withdrawn in the design purge — their designs resembled another studio's characters too closely — and the film was rebuilt with the approved cast. Same arena, same narrator — a brand-new melee.

🎬 Now showing in the theater: this film lives in the ⚔️ Grand Melee section of the Wizard Cinema — step into the lobby.

Who would YOUR four be, if the hat were yours to draw from?
