Site tokens

[Ghislaine Fontanneau/Elayne Hoover]

I've always enjoyed site tokens.  I once went to an event that didn't 
have a site token--I pouted for days.  At Octavian a few years ago, they 
gave out necklaces of seven pieces of clay with the Roman animals 
stamped into them.  It was very heavy, but very cool.  The following 
Octavian's site token was a molded "gold" lion's head.  Also really 
nice--I conned some of my friends out of theres so I could have more. I 
was very impressed by the site token for Mikael and Mikaela's second 
coronation: a coin with his arms stamped into one side and hers on the 
reverse.  Knowne World Academy of the Rapier gave out large silver 
filigree oak leaves (4 inches long!); that was very impressive, very 
sparkly, and lots of fun to dangle from one's hat!

Anyone who knows me can testify that I am at least *part* kender.  To 
me, a site token is like an omen of how the event will turn out.  I just 
love site tokens!
