Champions

We chose these fine gentlemen for our Champions of Sword: Don Avenel Kellough for Unarmored Combat, Don Nathaniel Longbow for Rapier, Sir Valgard (Agrippa's Knight) for Armored Combat. Valgard had to fly back to the East Kingdom and will only be able to join us at Pennsic. He recommended his opponent in the Finals, Sir Sven ("Malefi-Svent"), step in for him throughout the rest of our reign. And in Youth Combat: Rhys for under 6, Nicholai of House Valentine for 7-9, and Preston of House Valentine for 10-13.

We were thrilled by the comportment, bearing, chivalry, and fighting prowess of all of the fighters of the day, and are especially thrilled that these five will join our other Champions!

Poems

Star in the Crown of CAID
Written by William Walworth de Durham

She’s a friend to the children
A mentor to youth
A weaver of knowne world renown
But we know her best for the smile in her heart
And she shines like a star in the skies of Caid
With the bright silver moons of Caid

She came from fair Corvus
to be our sweet queen
She nurtures and makes us the best we can be
And she shines like a star in the skies of Caid

She’s the star in the crown of Caid
The star in the crown of Caid
Fair Bridget shall always be
She shines her light on us, has faith in the dream
She’s the star in the crown of Caid … because
When you wish up-on a star,
Makes no difference who you are,
Anything your heart desires
Will come to you.

Boy King of CAID (To the tune of Ghostriders In The Sky)
Written by William Walworth de Durham

Like Romulus and Remus, he’s a famous Roman son
He marched off with the legions so very far from home
Brave captain of the infantry, on combat he did thrive
But he could not be a charioteer --- not old enough to drive

Hazzah Hazzah, Hazzah Hizzuh
The Boy King of Caid

He led the mighty Caid Army to the Pennsic War
With Corvus in the vanguard, he marched them to the fore
But as he stepped out on the field, a marshal said “hey, son”
“You can’t attend this war without --- parent or guardian.”

Hazzah Hazzah, Hazzah Hizzuh
The Boy King of Caid

Was not one man could best him, not even two or three
He vanquished them upon the field and brought them to their knees
But then was put flat on his back by one small tick or flea
Beyond the call of duty --- he got a period disease.

Hazzah Hazzah, Hazzah Hizzuh
The Boy King of Caid
