Other Heavy List Activities
Knight School
This war season, Prince Griffyth Fitzwilliam is running Knight School at several events. There will be several small bear pits, run side by side, with a member of Chivalry, a Knight or Master at Arms, being a permanent member in each list. The unbelted fighters will line up in groups in front of the bear pits. One unbelt will enter each bear pit and fight with the Chivalry for 3 minutes. After the fighting, the Chivalry member and the unbelt will discuss the fights, with the Chivalry member giving pointers to the unbelt on how to improve or congratulating him on good fights. Both the fighting and the discussion will be timed and kept to 3 minutes. The unbelt will move down the line to the next bear pit and the Chivalry member will fight the next unbelt in line. Unbelts are encouraged to bring a pad of paper or booklet to write down suggestions.
Knight School will start at 11:00 am on Saturday and run for 1 hour, before the major melee battles start for the day.
Countess Svava's Whim Tourney
Countess Svava will once again be holding a Whim Tourney at Great Northeastern War. Details coming soon.
