Kenwrec Wulfe · Post by **Kenwrec Wulfe** » Fri Jan 12, 2007 6:32 pm

To all those who bear interest in Deeds of Arms and Combat

The Shire of Ravenslake proudly presents:

Fete of the Sabaton

The Shire of Ravenslake brings call to all noble warriors from all Kingdoms of the Known World. Here in our humble Shire, there shall be held a Great Tournament. Bring forth your finest armaments and armours. Bring forth your greatly honed skills and bearing. Bring forth your finest threads and steel. Bring forth your manners, honor and chivalry.

This Pas dâ€™Arms shall not limit itself to a particular time nor a particular place, though shall be held in the style of a late 14th century Pas. As much a contest of skill, this is a contest of honor and chivalry. As much a contest of prowess, this is a contest of humility and franchise.

Bouts shall be fought to 3 or 5 attempted or taken blows. The exact terms for each shall be determined by the combatants of each bout. To those who wish entry, you shall present yourself to this Shire as you will appear upon the field for approval of entry.

To that purpose, the following requirements are to be met:

You shall bear your colors and device upon the field in no less than the form of a banner. Heraldic shield and attire as it is appropriate for your persona.
You shall bear the armour of your time and of your place.
You shall bear the armament of your time and of your place.
You shall be attended by a consort and at least one attendant.
You shall be prepared with ransoms in the number of four.
You shall be prepared with gifts for the Panel of the Rose.
In this mighty endeavor, there shall be awarded two prizes. The Award of Prowess shall be awarded to the one whom carries from this Pas, the greatest number of ransoms, and the Golden Sabaton shall be awarded to the one whom is determined to be the most representative of the trait of honor, courtesy and chivalry.

Come forth great and honorable warriors, and represent!

For more information, please visit http://www.ravenslake.com then go to Events, then MKAOD and seek out "Fete of the Sabaton."

Nice.

Just a suggestion: I realize you said that gifts and ransoms could be anything, but it may help to suggest a dollar amount just to get people in the mind set of what you are looking for.

That depends entirely on how much you're worth, nearly-blingless-one.

Man you guys are being harsh on poor lil Josh... wow....

Henry of Bexley · Post by **Henry of Bexley** » Wed Jan 17, 2007 11:12 pm

They do this in person too. I need to pick a name NOW or I am going to be stuck with Josh the Blingless Jewish Merchant.

Sorry for the thread derailment I inadvertantly caused.

raito · Post by **raito** » Thu Jan 18, 2007 10:10 am

Real content:

My point was that those who are higher would naturally provide a more costly ransom than those who aren't, especially in these circumstances. For example, I, a Count, should provide a more costly ransom than Josh, who isn't.

Derailed content:

It could be worse. We could translate that into French. :twisted:

Murdock · Post by **Murdock** » Thu Jan 18, 2007 1:17 pm

Nothing specific as of now, but there will at least be pickup fighting. Right now my efforts are on making sure that I am happy with the Pas and its appearance.

I will certainly add details as they come available - I am the Ravenslake web admin as well....

Joshua le nÃ©gociant juif pauvre

That is the closest could get. No french word for BLING.

Murdock · Post by **Murdock** » Mon Jan 22, 2007 10:17 pm

I know how things went last year but some beginner classes would be nice.

I am not the class'o'crat or the heavy combat coordinator - I am just working on the Pas on the Saturday of the event. I will speak with the class coordinator for the event and see what they have planned or if I can GET them to make some plans.

Is there enough interest for something like this or am I wasting my time?

I think I'd change it a touch.

'Joshua le nÃ©gociant juif sans bijou' sounds a bit better to me. 'Sans bijou' is 'without jewels' as opposed to 'pauvre' which just means 'poor'.

Murdock · Post by **Murdock** » Thu Feb 15, 2007 12:22 pm

'Joshua le nÃ©gociant juif sans bijou'

OK

now we just need a Herald to submit it!!!!

Henry of Bexley · Post by **Henry of Bexley** » Thu Feb 15, 2007 11:21 pm

Stop derailing the thread, guys... come on... please?

(I am in deep, deep trouble here...)
