As the long winter nights give way to the first rays of spring sunshine,
Antoinette Clarissa du Bete, Eighth Baroness of One Thousand Eyes, has
declared that joyous merrymaking and grand tournament are in order as she
selects a new champion to go forth and defend her honor from all challenges,
martial or otherwise.
In keeping with the tradition of this event, to be eligible to wear the
favor of Baroness’ Champion the candidate must be a member of the Barony of
One Thousand Eyes, compete in armored combat tournament, display an Arts &
Sciences creation, and complete the Baroness’ quest.
Her Excelency of One Thousand Eyes further decrees that while you must be a
member of Her populace to win the title of champion, that all good gentle
folk are invited to come and compete in the tournament and display their
many and diverse works of art for the enjoyment of all. Indeed, she
challenges the artisans and warriors of Artemisia to come and test the
mettle of those who would lay claim to the post of Her Champion, for she
believes that it is through challenge that prowess of arm and mind are
attained.
The armored combat tournament will be fought with 5 weapons styles: Weapon &
shield, single weapon, Florentine weapons, great sword, and spear at
barricade. The format of the tourney will be decided on the field, based on
the number of combatants and Her Excelency’s whim.
The Arts & Sciences display will not require documentation. Her Excelency
has requested that candidates for Baroness’ Champion include a brief
explanation (1-2 paragraphs) of their work.
The Baroness’ quest will be announced at Her Excelency’s whim..
There will be a feast in the evening, limited to 60 guests. Feast fee is $7,
and pre-registration for feast can be mailed to the event steward or to the
One Thousand Eyes Reeve. Please be sure to include a name, contact
