Sir Kylson's Challenge as the Baronessa's Champion

May - Oct 96, Barony of Eskalya

 

Inspired by:

Sorcha Caremon, Baronessa Eskalya

Organized by:

Sir Kylson Skyfyre

Description:

This was an open champion's challenge running six months, where the combat could be either by arms or by game, as described in the event copy hereafter.

How it Went:

This challenge received an excellent response, with nearly every fighter in the Barony accepting either combat by Arms or by Game.

 

Unto the Populous of Eskalya, Oertha and the Known World
Kylson Skyfyre doth send you greetings and Challenge

As Her Champion, I seek through competition to bring Honor to the Baroness of Eskalya, Mistress Sorcha Careman, and by this deed unto My own Lady, Mistress Anne of Bradford
As Challenger, I grant you choice of (1)Armored or Unarmored Confrontation and (2) Weapon Styles or Game & Rules, etc.

As Challenged, I choose Time and Place.

The stakes I offer is the Beauty of Dance. If I win, the challenger (or their Consort) must dance a Dance with the Baroness, of the Baroness’s choosing. If I lose, I or Sorcha will honor the same debt (depending on the sex of my Opponent). If my opponent has no consort to contend for, we can discuss the stakes before the Contest.

I ask that the Challenge be made to, and answered by, Her Excellency, in as flowery and chivalrous a manner as possible. Thus bringing pageantry to Our Game and honor to our Consorts.

Sir Kylson Skyfyre
