Marinus Baronial Birthday
(2011-06-04 - Site opens at & Closes at )
Marinus

Come One, Come All to Marinus’ Baronial Birthday! We celebrate and revere the martial prowess of our Baron and the beauty of his Baroness!  Come and compete on the field or in the hall! Heavy Fighting! Rapier! Archery! Thrown Weapons! There will be an Arts and Sciences display and competition as well as a Bardic competition. Artisans are welcome (and encouraged) to come show their talent!

Martial Activities:  Competitions will be held in order to help our Baron and Baroness choose who will represent them as Baronial Champions in Heavy Fighting, Rapier, Archery, and Thrown Weapons. Combat Archery and Siege Weapon authorizations will be also be held.

Arts and Sciences: The theme for this year’s Baronial Birthday Arts and Sciences Competition will be Three, in honor of the Marinus Trident. Your documentation must state how you have incorporated three into your entry. You might enter three versions of one item, three different types of the one thing, or three things your persona would have owned. You might also enter a single item that required three skills or three distinct processes to make. Use your imagination!

We will also have a "Year in the Life" open display area where you may display any projects you have worked on since our last birthday. In addition to this, I would like to encourage any and all artisans to bring a project with them for an outdoor artisans’ row area near the list field (weather permitting). This will be a great way for you to share your craft with the populace in a more interactive setting and with some of our newer members who may be looking for something to do.
