My Accolades
CONGRATULATIONS! You've managed to find my Top Secret page!
If you're reading this, then you've somehow figured out how to access my secret list of Accolades. I never intended for anyone to really find this page. I made it because one of my peers insisted that I do it to keep track of things, and to make me feel better whenever I feel like I'm not enough.
Brain weasels are never good.
This has a combination of both my arts and my fighting.
To the left is a handful of my medallions I received with each award.
My "Real" Order of Precedence
Here's a list of all the awards I've ever won from across the globe. Yes, I made a spreadsheet.
This is what happens when you bounce all over the world like a volleyball.
The Quest: Win a Martial and an A&S Competition in Every Kingdom
Once upon a time in the early 2000s, I decided that I was going to try and win a competition of each type in every kingdom.
Yes, it's a lofty quest.
This isn't something I'm expecting to accomplish in this lifetime, but it's sure fun to try!
The following is not an exhaustive list of all my wins, but rather a collection of the ones that I remember. I've also won other things.
An Tir - COMPLETE
Located on the upper left hand corner of North America. This is where I was born and grew up.
A&S : January 2022
Knowne World Scribal Competition: Advanced Category: 2nd Place
Event: Known World Backlog Scribal Competition

Event: Unknown
Event: Unknown
I can't remember what it was, but it was my first tournament win. It was also the first tournament ever, and I had won outside of my home Barony. I believe this was at Cold Keep. I won a cup!
Atlantia - COMPLETE
I've livted up in Sacred Stone then Windmaster's Hill.
A&S : October 2023
Scrivener Royal Competition

Avacal - COMPLETE
An Tir and Avacal broke apart, so I'm counting my wins in this area versus the ones I did in An Tir.
A&S : Shire Champion 2009
Event: ?
Event: ?
I served as the A&S champion of Bitter End using a combination of scrolls and documentation for fencing. The scroll above was not my competition piece, but rather the scroll I received after my time ended. This shows that I both won a competition there, and I served successfully as a Champion.
This was also the VERY FIRST A&S competition I ever entered in my life.
Rapier: November 12, 2022
Coronation Bearpit Tournament
Event: Coronation
Event: Coronation
This is me with Duchess Nasheeta right after I won the tournament. She presented me with my first place prize. Unfortunately, it was a rather sharp and pointy dagger. The TSA doesn't like stuff like that being brought on planes. It went to the kingdom Seneshal instead as a present.
AEthelmearc - In Progress
But of course...
A&S: December 2, 2023
Peace Tourney: First Place
Event: Delftwood Yule
Peace Tourney: First Place
Event: Delftwood Yule
This is a copy of my first place prize scroll. It's absolutely beautiful. I won using a scroll I brought with me, then two smaller works-in-progress made out of the entries of two other competitors: both of them made period ink.
I demonstrated the use of their period inks in both calligraphy and illumination, plus how they behave when they're being used to dye perg.
Rapier: TBD
I'm working on it! I need to find a tournament to win, somewhere.
East - In Progress
I also lived in this place!
A&S: TBD
I'm working on it!
Rapier: September 2, 2022

Event: John Barleycorn- Crown Province of Ostgardr Investiture and Fight For a Cause Tournament
'For the Cause' Tournament: First Place
Event: John Barleycorn- Crown Province of Ostgardr Investiture and Fight For a Cause Tournament
This was an amazing tournament where I fought along side a partner on the heavy field. That partner and I fought our way through the top. It was a super hard competition, but somehow we made it. The above photo is me and the King after Court. He gave me his personal token made out of silver for winning the tournament. That's me holding it in my hand.
