Hi all. I never got or read through the Sword and Crown, and haven't ever been able to find out much about that festival. A Wiki search only seems to bring up the adventure list and brief reviews.

Can someone share what the Sword and Crown really entails?
When/how often is it?
How is it called and organized?
What kinds of contests and how are they handled?
What social requirements/stigmas are there?
How does it fit into domain actions?

And if it potentially has some impact on selection of a new Emperor, howso? (there's something about a conclave of lords and possible votes...?)
