What Else is Happening At Warlord?
 
The Steppes Warlord Tournament on Saturday, and the Steppes Rapier Championship on Sunday are not the only things on tap at Warlord XLI!
 
Archery ~ Saturday and Sunday
 
Please remember to bring gloves and wear long sleeves. The bow string can leave a nasty kiss, and it best for you to protect your fingers.
 
The competition will start with the ever so fun novice competition, with a Royal Round. Then after lunch we will determine the next Steppes Archer, followed by a William Tell competition.
 
Sunday will be our Youth competition, followed by an afternoon of free shooting. Please take note that children must be accompanied by an adult/parent/guardian at all times while on the field. This does mean someone over the age of 18.
Our Schedule will be as follows:
Sat-
09:30-10:00 Equipment Inspection 
10:00-12:00 – Archery Begins. Novice Competition and Royal Rounds 
Loaner Gear will be provided for this competition.
1:00pm- 3:00pm– Steppes Archer Begins
No Loaner Gear Available. Must have own gear.
3:00-4:00- William Tell Competition.
Open to all
Sun-
07:00 -08:00 Baroness’s Folly
No loaner gear available.
10:00- 12:00 Youth Archery Competition
Loaner gear will be made available.
Artisan’s Enclave ~ Saturday from 11 am to 6 pm
 
A place to chat and create, learn and teach, keep or get cool, and perhaps have a cool drink and a light snack. It’s a potluck sideboard, so bring your chair, something to work on, and your cup. Mistress Xene will have her spinning wheel, and there will be spindles and other good things to play with with. We also have four great learning opportunities:
 
Sir Domingo’s camp kitchen and cooking ~ Outside
            Come learn Medieval camp cookery from a genuine Master!
           
How to Photograph Your A&S Items ~ Madelena de Orozco (Jennifer Ytarte)
You've spent hours of TLC on your project; let’s look at how to take photos that will show your piece in the best possible light. Learn how to take professional photos of your projects, on the cheap. AKA how can I get my point and shoot to do that?! Check out this hour-long class where we will tackle taking professional looking photos on a drawstring budget.
We will go through terminology first, but then go through tips to make the best use of light, camera settings and ambiance. This class is for those who own a cell phone or point and shoot camera and want to make it work in their favor.  (Don't knock it, ‘til you try it! Most cell phone cameras nowadays have more than enough pixels to print a full page photo!)
After the class I will have my DSLR and lights set up to take high res professional photos, for a $5 per image charge.
Viking Box Class ~ HL Haraldr Bassi
Students can make and take a Viking style trapezoidal "six board" box in pine or cedar for $30 or $45 respectively for materials. Students should expect to spend circa 8 hours or more working on a box using only the tools we know the Vikings had available. We will start Saturday morning and I plan to be on the road sometime Sunday afternoon.
Knife Making Classes ~ Red Dog Forge ~ Outside
Bardic Championship
 
There will be 3 rounds. The first will be held Saturday from 1:30 - 3:30 and will simply require the competitor to perform one piece for myself and another judge (plus whoever wants to join us).
 
From this, a certain number (6-10, depending on number of entrants) will be chosen to perform in the second round. The second round's format will be more traditional for the Steppes. After Saturday's evening Court, we will hold a bardic circle, hosted by Her Excellency.
 
The chosen competitors will perform another piece for the judges and Her Excellency. Her Excellency will choose 3 competitors to advance to the finals, which be held immediately after.
 
The final round's format will be the same as the second. Her Excellency will then choose her first Bard from the 3 finalists. Once the competition has concluded, the circle will be open and all are invited to perform.
 
All performers should prepare three pieces. Her Excellency is not a fan of Her own tears unless they are from laughter or joy. All competitors should take this into consideration when choosing their pieces. Pieces with documentation will be looked upon favorably.
 
Competitors should have at least two different performance styles (story, song, poem). Finally, and most importantly, Her Excellency enjoys pieces with a moral. Think fairy tales. Again, documentable pieces fitting this theme will be looked upon favorably.
