Academia Draconis: The Siege on Griffon’s Peak. The earth trembles and skies burn black. A new threat bears down upon us as we turn our blades towards the sky. Many tales have been told of a ferocious animal with razor sharp teeth, claws that could tear a man in two, and powerful wings that give it the gift of flight. Such a beast would easily tear a group of fighters apart. We believe that these unholy abominations have infested our lands and are growing in number. As we speak, a campaign to find and eradicate these foul creatures is underway. Once again, Dreiburgen sends out the call to muster at the base of the mountains this Spring. Fighters, come sharpen your skills at this Collegium of War. No matter what Barony, Shire, or Canton you hail from, we are Caid. It is now time to rally together and fight for one cause. It is time to defend the Kingdom again!
Academia Draconis is a multi-day camping event designed to provide practical training on the battlefield and personal development for chivalry and defense. With classes and discussions about Marshalling, Armored Combat, Rapier Combat, Youth Combat, and Art/Science skills that intersect with fighting, it’s not just a tournament but an all-encompassing weekend of martial skills!
