Wanting to brag on my guys
Posted: Thu Aug 13, 2009 1:31 pm
Guys,
We had a female fighter named Morrigan here in Nebelwald not too long ago. I have been talking about her pretty much non stop since April.
What she had done before Pennsic was pretty impressive. She went from her first night in armor to her card in seventeen days. It makes sense to say that none of her training buddies had the slightest bit of input in the decision to authorize her, except as training buddies.
Well, she is a Calontiri now. She is in Omaha right now, and I am told that she is taking sewing lessons with her Grandmother while she waits out the last two weeks before college.
But, this is about what she did at Pennsic.
She joined all my other campmates that were eligible and entered the Knowne Worlde Novice Tourney, and she was awarded the prize for most chivalrous.
Another one of mine, Ryoko, from New York, won most inspiring appearance. I can brag on him, as he is one of mine, but I can't take credit, as he trained himself in the New York area, training with the likes of Sir Tanaka and Sir Albrict (called "Brick").
He fought in a heavily customized helmet that was sent to him by Sir Bryce, who might have been king of Atlantia when he sent it.
The watch phrase for the tourney among my guys was "the only thing you can prove here is that you are a dick." I don't believe that any of my fighters showed the slightest bit of calibration issues, though I feel like Morrigan may have felt some things were good, when I would have said otherwise had I been hit with the same blows.
Also, Morrigan entered the Chalkman Pub's "Key of D" competition, playing her fiddle with several Omegans backing on guitar, bass and drums, and won the special MC's award. This was her first music competition ever, and she has a grand total of six and a half months of study on the fiddle, plus two semesters in High School.
The phrase for the chalkman competition was "Too drunk to play is unacceptable."
Anyway, I feel very proud of my folks, and I wanted to brag.
