Warfare and Political Survival Skills
Life is hard and dangerous. You may demonstrate your ability to defend yourself, your family or community through any of the following:
- Heavy Combat - you must compete in Four tournaments and win at least two fights.
- Archery A - you must compete in Four IKAC and score above 70 twice.
- Archery B - you must participate in at least Four wars and achieve something notable twice.
- Rapier Combat - you must compete in four tournaments and win at least two fights.
- Poisoning - to succeed you must document knowledge of period poisons and antidotes if any, alternatively you may write a robust article on the various protections against poisoning and famous practitioners of this dubious art. If you attend a feast specially run to cater to such tastes the successful rendering of 2 attendees into victims will gain you 3 bonus points if you survive the event yourself. (Okay I almost left this out but some may find it more fun than I and worthy of inclusion).
This category will be judged by your documentation of your knowledge, as published in your local newsletter or on your group's website.
