Fall Crown Tournament

Hear ye, citizens of Artemisia! Join us at the Crossroads of Artemisia, beneath the watchful gaze of the mountains where the Gryphons of Artemisia soar, for a contest most glorious to claim the right to be heir to the Gryphon Thrones. A challenge has been decreed, and by strength of arms and stratagem shall the worthiest rise. The Noble and Gracious Majesties Atilivs and Æsa have decreed that the format will be announced at the event and that entry paperwork is due before October 4.

The combat will be held outdoors on the grassy and shady quad of Idaho State University, unless the weather is absolutely unworkable. Tents, shades, banner pole holders, and any other items which require staking are not allowed, but if your shade structure does not require stakes, it is welcome. Bring your own water, snacks, and chairs. The site is dry, so no alcohol please.
