Name:
Location: Shire of Trisel, Trimaris

I am in my late forties, a proud husband, father, and a bard. I am a book pedlar by trade and a bookman by vocation. I am a romantic, a realist, and a Believer. I like a good joke, and a bad one even better. I admire all ladies for the innate beauty that is in each one, but my heart is sworn to the fair and gentle Lady Lorelei, who has consented to share my life and my name.

The Red Tower Challenges

Red Tower Baroness' Rapier Champion Tourney 2006

Lord Cillian Mac Caudwell stands today
With sword and dagger, ready for to play
Against all comers who will take a chance
To stand against him in the Rapier Dance.
Mirror his weapons, he will gladly fight
Five lethal touches with his weapons bright.
Of all the MOBsters here, he would rejoice,
To fight whoever is the Crown's best choice.
But if he had a choice for whom he'd ask
'Twould be the son of a (thump) who creased his mask!

Sweet Sironna stands before your throne,
As fair a lass as any here have known.
Yet cross her on the field and you will feel
The glorious resources of her steel.
Send whom you wish with single sword in hand.
Best two of thre, we'll see who last shall stand.
She'll fight to lethal touch in every round,
Confident she'll put your MOBster down.

For your pleasure, here is Christopher,
Ready to fight whomever you prefer.
With rapier and dagger, he's prepared
To fight the same, and witness: He's not scared
To fight the best two matches out of three,
With lethal touches, so our lords can see
The honor that's inherent in the man
Who dares to fight with true steel in his hand.

From the Shire of Owl's Nest now, Paul Egbert comes
Before fair ladies and yon gentille hommes.
A picture of courage, he comes with single blade
To fight your choice within this martial glade.
Let his opponent carry a brace of swords,
He's confident his deeds will match my words.
Bring your best, let mortal thrusts be made,
Best of five rounds. Let Glory be portrayed.

And the fights that never were.

Lord Cillian calls out Leon to the field.
Bring case of rapier, he will make you yield.
Three lethal touches in this martial glen
Will determine who receives the win.

The fair Sironna calls out Jean-Michel
For this special challenge wherein now I tell.
Ere she can touch him to do grievious harm,
Jean-Michel must the lady first disarm,
Taking the weapon from the lady's hand,
Which she'll defend until her final stand.
Single rapiers only, flashing bright.
Bring your best. the glory's in the fight.

Christopher wants to try out Leon's steel.
Bring single rapier prepared to deal
Out lethal blows, until the best of three
Reveals to all the joy of Chivalry.
