Maureen and I (or at least Maureen) will be fighting tonight at the Storvik practice. I might be "child-herding".
With respect,

Aaron looked AWESOME.

I was inside in Sir Strykar's class (which was excellent!) so I missed the fighting outside (I did a few fight passes indoors in the beginning before the class)

Aaron's kit is what this is about. (notice the green tinge of envy)

If you are in the area and you can make it, this is a great practice not to be missed.

Being able to fight is important as well, and I'm working on that. Currently I serve as a "fishing lure" to track fighters and combat archers towards our position so people don't have to hunt them down. It works, but I'm still working on the fighting bit.

Thanks!

The arms were done by Sir Shannon Ironwood, out of El Paso, Texas. I can hook anyone up who would like to talk to him. He made the arms (with vambraces and rebraces and elbows) from scratch, in stainless in 4 hours. I was very impressed! I watched!
