Castlemere History

Castlemere's Quarterly Braggin Right Tourney

    It is always spelled "Braggin' " and it has never been exactly quarterly but it was something started to give everyone in Castlemere experience in all facets of the lyst.
    I came up with the idea because I couldn’t fight anymore but wanted to be connected to the fun and honor that abounds inside and out of the Lyst Field.
    Castlemere's 'Quarterly Braggin' Rights Tourney' were designed to give fighters practice fighting in a lyst. Learning to keep up the energy during the long periods of activity and to honor their inspirations.
    It's a time for Consorts to learn as well.  How to be the best Consort they can be; to take lessons they have learned and make it their own.
    It was also a chance for Castlemere to train Lyst Keepers and Field Heralds. How to run a Bear Pit, whether a lyst tree or table formula works best for you in elimination tourneys.
    Perhaps the best aspect of our 'Quarterly Braggin' Rights Tourney' is letting the Gallery get comfortable with their rights and responsibilities during a tourney.  How much fun it can be to gamble on the winner, to call out for a specific weapon, or to ask questions.
    While never Quarterly, our Braggin Rights Tourneys are something to be proud of no matter where you sit or stand on the field.
