An Tir Awards Series! Learn about ALL THE AWARDS!!
Award : Honor of the Lion's Rapier
A mark of favour given by the Crown to those who have completed a term as the Champion of Rapier Combat.
The fourth in a series of awards given to those that have finished a term as a Champion. This one is for our swishy and stabby Champion, The Queen's Rapier Champion.
Before the Tournament the competitors are charged thusly:
Today you enter the list to vie for the honor of Rapier Champion of An Tir. The person who carries this title is sworn in fealty to the Crown of An Tir, that whenever Their Majesties marshals Their forces, there shall Their Champion be to battle at Their side, and to defend Their Crown and Their Kingdom against all who would take up arms against An Tir.
This is a grave responsibility, not to be undertaken lightly, for even as they take their place in Court and at Their Majesty's side, the Champion must know that by their deeds they show forth the honor and chivalry of that court and this Kingdom to all the world. So, understanding the position for which you battle, harken now to the words of the Crown.
First Given : Artemus de Montessori (Madrone) Jan 8, 1995 (AS XXIX)
Last Given : Gareth Hyre (Madrone) Mar 7, 2020 (AS LIV)
Number of Award recipients : 21
