Know all men by these presents that I, Lord Thorgard inn Sterki, Am Bládier of Clan Wulfgard, Chieftain of the House of Thorgard, and a heavy weapons fighter of the Kingdom of Æthelmearc, seek to test my endurance, skill and courage against the very best that the Known World has to offer. I have therefore resolved to challenge Knights from every Kingdom to meet me in brotherly combat in a feat of arms.

I, Lord Thorgard wish to face 100 Knights consecutively with a fresh opponent every 60 seconds, resting only when I defeateth an opponent and only then for the remainder of that 60 second slot. Should any opponent defeat me, I will continue to fight my most worthy opponent until the 60 seconds are up, or until I defeateth said Knight which ever comes first. Should I win the day of this quest, let all fame and glory be given to God, and the Kingdom of Æthelmearc whose nurturing and tutelage have made me who I am.

Yours In Service,
Lord Thorgard inn Sterki

Lord Thorgard inn Sterki's words thus presented by his Herald, Siobhan Callánach of House Thorgard, and sworn to be true.

This challenge will take place on Monday, August 15, A.S. XL (in the common year of 2005) upon the battlefield at Pennsic between 9:00 a.m. and 10:50 a.m. (just prior to the Bridge Battle) for more information and to reserve a specific time slot go to www.HouseOfThorgard.org, or contact the House of Thorgard Herald at nabaclish@gmail.com

Wow, it's like violent wind sprints. Cool.

Defeateth?

[Siobhan]

Regrettably, due to financial strain, it is a questionable matter whether my Chieftain, Lord Thorgard, will be able to even go to Pennsic. Because of this, he has cancelled the 100 Knights Challenge, but Lord Thorgard does hope to reissue this challenge next year at Pennsic 35.

Sorry for any inconvenience, and best wishes and luck to all on the battle field this year!

Yours in Service,
Siobhan Callánach
Herald of the House of Thorgard.
