Details about the Rapier

Bring the person of your
choice to stand as your inspiration. They will be given
roses, one is theirs as a keepsake and in exchange they shall
giveyou a favor to keep.When a bout is lost the inspiration
gives one of their roses to the winner. Eventually there
shall be only one who will be holding a complete bouquet. The
others will have one rose to keep. You do not have to enter
for the Championship to particpat in the Tourney. If you
don’t have someone to ask to stand as inspiration we can help
