Best Death. I won best death at a rapier tourney and still have the copper replica 
of the death rectangle buried with the dead that I was given.

You did not ask why but I want to tell it so bear with me. I feel proudest of it 
because it was the most fun I have ever had at an event. My SCA dad and I made an 
agreement that if I died he would carry me to the throne and beg for mercy for 
Killing his own daughter. If he died I would carry him (he is Giovanni, small and 
light weight) and beg for mercy from the crown for killing my father. It happens 
that I died and made a show of dying crumpling to the ground with an audible thud. 
Dad picked me up and I stayed completely limp. He had fun cause I know I outweighed 
him by 20 pounds. Being gifted with a flair for poetic monologues he beg for mercy 
in a tearful way. It was the most fun I had ever had, I treasure that award!
