    The Barony of Wintermist invites the populace of Caid to join us for the celebration of our Baronial Anniversary! On Saturday, May 16th, A.S. 61, we gather to celebrate the spirit of Siegfried — dragon slayer, treasure winner, and hero of the Rhine — in a day filled with courage, camaraderie, and shining renown. Step into legend and join us for a day of bold deeds, bright banners, and high revelry inspired by the great Germanic epic, the Nibelungenlied.
    We will have armored combat, rapier, and an RBG tournament, as well as A&S and Bardic
    competitions, to find our new Wintermist champions.


    SCHEDULE:
    8:00am: Set-up
    9:00am: Site opens
    10:00am: Opening court (at TRM's pleasure)
    11:00am: Tournaments begin
    12:30pm: Lunch Break
    4:00pm: Closing court
    5:00pm: Site closes


    ACTIVITIES:
    TOURNAMENTS: Lists will close 15 minutes after court. Tournaments will begin shortly
    after the closing of lists.
    Armored tournament format to be announced soon!
    Rapier: Tournament will be round robin pools. To represent Siegfrieds Invisibility Cloak,
    all fighters must use a cloak during their first bout each round. There will also be a special twist for extra points to represent the killing blow to Siegfried’s weak spot Each round, fighters will select a vulnerability (arm, leg, head, forearm, etc) from Brunhild’s Goblet. If struck in that vulnerability or if you strike your opponents vulnerability, an extra point will be awarded. Vulnerabilities will not be revealed until the end of fight to the marshals and Lysts.

    It sounds rad!!

    RBG: For the first time ever, Wintermist will have a rubber band gun champion. As we all
    know, His Excellency has a fondness for RBGs, and we will have a dueling tournament to
    determine Wintermist's first ever RBG champion!
    A&S: The final leg of the Wintermist Arts and Science Championship competition will
    take place at Wintermist Anniversary. In the spirit of the theme, the Arts and Sciences
    categories are inspired by the Saga Of Siegfried and are as follows:
    1. Open: Dragons - craft anything with a Draconic theme. Since one of Siegfried's tasks
    was dragon-slaying, make a model, wood burn a design, paint a scroll, or even write a
    poem. Whatever you do, make sure to include a dragon.
    2. Decorative: Red or White - decorate something anyway you like, but use either red or
    white in your design. (Note: don't just paint a box white or red, try to add artistic/medieval flare.)
    3. Functional: Jewelry - craft some jewelry worthy of Siegfried's lady love, Princess
    Kriemhild. 
    4. Edible: Northern European medieval foods. The saga covers, the Germanic,
    Scandinavian, and Burgundian lands, so make foods (sweets, finger foods, or other
    inspired dish) from the medieval times in these regions.
    Extra points will be given for inclusion of Documentation. Additional extra points will
    be given for use of BOTH Red and White in ANY of the categories.
    Bardic: Come forth and share with us tales of valor and courage, of great heroes who stood against impossible odds, broken oaths, hidden daggers, and the bitter cost of betrayal. Let your voices ring with triumph, tragedy, love, vengeance, and the long memory of honor lost or kept. Whether your tale be drawn from legend, history, or the fires of your own imagination, bring it forth so that all gathered here may remember that glory is fleeting, loyalty is precious, and every hero’s tale carries the shadow of fate.

    EVENT REGISTRATION: Adult Event Registration: $20.00. Adult Member Discount
    Event Registration: $10.00. Youth aged 15 and under are guests of the Barony; 16 and over are adult price. Cash or checks will be accepted at gate. Checks can be made payable to SCA, Inc./Barony of Wintermist.
