Who we are
We bring the swords. You bring the heroes.
We show up at ren-faires and events with our own booth: pay per person to learn LARP-safe foam-sword fighting, then fight all day if you want. Fighting is what we're there for, and we build a full encampment around it — cooking, garb, full immersion. We do some reenactment alongside that, and less often, HEMA and Buhurt in blunted steel for members who want the full-contact armored side.
We aim for period-correct where we can, and we make a lot of what we wear and carry. Tools are shared and seasoned members teach others; getting a seam wrong twice and right the third time teaches you why the original looked the way it did. We are a safety-conscious group, and make sure we are always prioritizing safety first.
We have commanders to train new recruits of all ages 12+! We are a family-friendly group, and can attend large ren-faires as well as private events. We have our own garb, gear, and Nobles ready to help fill out the immersion of any kingdom.
There is no audition. People merely need to check in, sign a waiver, and they shall be outfitted and taught from there!
What we do
What We Do
Fighting
Our booth at ren-faires and events: pay per person to learn LARP-safe foam-sword fighting, then fight all day. Group battles, duels between one or two fighters, and larger set-piece engagements. We teach adults and a few kiddos how to fight safely, in garb, with a royal staff ready to slot in to any event large or small.
Craft & encampment
Armor, leatherwork, and weapon maintenance, plus whatever a member has taken up this month. Alongside the booth we run a full encampment — cooking, garb, full immersion — with our own traders, merchants, vendors, and other talented performers like bards!
Armored combat
A smaller part of what we do: HEMA and Buhurt, full contact under trained marshals, for members who want the steel side. Weapons are blunted — rounded at the tip, dulled along the edge — and checked on arrival, every time.
