Attention rapier fighters, come fight in the Nine Lives and "How Many Thugs Can You Handle?" tournaments (Details below). Guild of Defense Prizes will be fought this day. There will be great rapier classes for all skill levels. For those that favor cheering on the fighters from the sidelines there will be much merriment for you as well. All fighters must come to the event prepared to introduce themselves to the gallery. This introduction can be done by the fighter, a herald/bard of their choosing, or they could "rent" a herald/bard at the event for the day. In addition, during the lunch break we will have a bardic contest, where each entrant can either perform: An alternative introduction for a fighter OR A brief retelling of a dramatic moment in the tournament OR An entertaining description of a most terrific death by a fighter that day.
