The Noble Barony
of Stromgard invites one and all to join us in celebration of our
founding. The day will be filled with fun, family activities, an
auction, and feasting as well as the fierce and unique StormMaker
Tournament to choose Stromgard’s next Arts and Sciences
Champion.

StormMaker
Tournament

Ivon and
Hlutwige, Lord and Lady Stromgard herewith invite all to vie for
the honour of being named their StormMaker, Champion of the Arts
and Sciences of the Barony of Stromgard at Founding Revel, February
24 (2018) in the Barony of Stromgard. Those wishing to compete for
this title must inform Their Excellencies via electronic communique
no later than February 10 (2018) and be prepared to present a
Letter of Intent at morning court at the event.

Each competitor is required to research and
document two (2) complete and distinct entries plus an entry to be
created on site the day of the tournament
(see  “Mystery
Box” below).
Competitors are required to make a fire using flint and steel as
well as use the fire in some way in their third entry. Each
competitor is allowed a small outdoor space for a
“Camp” within which they may present the first two
entries and prepare the third. Competitors will need a fire pit in
which to build fire. Various tinders, some wood and charcoal will
be provided.

Now, to the the matter of the third entry;
Competitors are allowed to have one person who will serve as
adviser/assistant/helper. Please advise us as to who will be
serving as such in your Letter of Intent. Each competitor will be
given a “Mystery
Box”  filled with
various items (all Mystery Boxes will have like contents). The
competitor and their adviser will have 10 minutes to work out a
plan for the entry based on the contents of the Mystery Box. There
will be several areas of the arts and sciences to choose from. Once
competitors have made a decision, they and their advisers will
visit the sideboard for five minutes. Competitors and their
adviser may trade item for item from the Mystery Box to the
sideboard for needed/wanted items. Competitors may also choose to
trade item for item with each other. An attempt at more than one
finished item is encouraged. It is worth noting that the competitor
should be the main source of ideas and execution of the
entry(s).

Time is up!
Competitors and their advisers will have three hours to create the
third entry using the items in the Mystery Box and the fire the
competitor must build.

Stromgard Champion, to
be the StormMaker, wear the cloak, display your work, prove your
skill; then send your intent to:
