If all members would turn their attention to this topic, http://shatteredplanes.com/forum/index.php?topic=5949.new#new
The tournament has been delayed for the time being on account of many people being AFK, on hiatus, or just plain busy including our tournament leader K2323. Without him there is no tournament and without the others there's no contestants. So for the time being, him and I decided to implement an event that took place back in the original Opposing Kingdoms at ironically the first Excel Tournament...
Originally call Planetary Alignment or The Alignment (because we were terribly uncreative back then.) It was an event that was described as a natural occurring Anti-Magic Field that lasted a total of 3 days. (Later we described it as something Existence did as a filtering or something..) It happened in the middle of the first tournament and our characters had to stop battle and flee until the event was over. For certain purposes to stay within lore and fix things that didn't make sense back then...
The event will last longer than three days, and instead of just planetary alignment it will just be known by [someone suggest a creative name here] and encompass ALL OF EXISTENCE. This means the Dimensional Plane and all around it, the entire 'cube' of existence. So yes, Magic users are screwed in-character. HOWEVER unlike last time internal magic will not be affected, only external magic. So if your characters rely on magic to live (Elementals, Incarnations, etc) they will continue living. However things such as Teleportation, spells, etc that require outbursts of magic internally AND externally, you are unable to perform for the duration of this event.
ANOTHER THING. Unless you were specifically around the Opposing Kingdoms time IN-CHARACTER you will know nothing about what is happening or why your magic has suddenly disappeared. YES this means you Orph no "My Magisters know this!" or "Jack was part of the Void he knows this!" Only if you were part of the original OK and had knowledge of wtf was happening IN-CHARACTER will you know WTF is happening now. Your characters can know something happened back then, sure. But detailed information on how long it lasts, what it's called, how it occurs, and etc? No, you do not have knowledge.
Edit: ALSO AAM Fields and other such technological and item means to block out AM fields will be useless against this and any other methods you have. Even my technique is useless. Why? It is a natural occurring AM field and it takes ALL MAGIC in existence. You can't convert any existence to Magic and all other conversions fall apart. Internal magic only stays because it's a part of the persons body.
With that said, continue your tournament from that topic. So yes CHARACTERS WOULD NOTICE. And no teleportation, so I hope the magic users have alternatives or friends in high places ;)'
Edit2: Embodiments are not affected as they are a force not magic. However any regular magic they have is gone.
P.S. ...No magic for a long time, damn I'm dead. :(

Too be nice I will have Destiny's Hope pick up anyone who can't leave. Also this is my best chance to defeat Hikaru! lol joking Hikaru.
We could call this event the "Dead Days" For during this time Magic has not existence.

We could call the phenomena, the Dimensional Filter Effect
