in the tourney.  Please bring new items others may enjoy such as
candles, tunics, or mugs; however, there is no need to drain your pouch

the tournament, the winner will have first choice of the entry items,
second place will choose next, etc.  Other prizes will be awarded for
honor and chivalry on the field.
Fencing:  Calling all fencers to our second annual baronial birthday
dice tournament!  Fencers will be paired for a bout, roll one die to
determine the weapon style, and one die to determine the victory
condition.  Competitors will start on opposite sides of a list fence
with the option of maneuvering around it, or fencing over it, as they
desire.  Skilled fencers who do well in this tournament will be rewarded
as well as those who promote the honor and spirit our Society.
Archery:  Atlantia has fast developed a reputation for superb archers
amongst the known world!  Bring your bows and practice your skills in a
series of novelty shoots.  The competition will be run as the blanket
heavy tournament described above.  Arrows will be pulled, points will be
tallied, and the winner takes first choice of the spoils. Honorable and
courteous archers may also receive extra gifts.
Champions: The highest ranking barony member each tournament will
determine Dun Carraig’s new baronial champions.
