Roz gets armored

Ya see, there was this really way cool dude named Duke Gyrth Oldcastle. Many folks probably know Gyrth, or have heard of his style of fighting. I became acquainted with him through my friend Mistress Caitlin (one way cool chikadee, by the way). She is a member of a sept of Clan Oldcastle. Since I needed a place to stay at Pennsic a couple years ago, she said I should camp with Oldcastle. What a GREAT group of folks. I always wanted a household like that....

Anyway, Duke Gyrth, rest his soul, was the patriarch of Oldcastle. Last year at Pennsic, he agreed to train me if I got my kit together. Unfortunately, I did not get my kit together in time, because last winter, His Grace passed from this place to a better one. I feel motivated to dedicate my first entry into the Ironrose list at Pennsic to his memory. I hope that Her Grace, Melisande, allows me to carry a token on the field, so that all may see the great respect I hold for her, and for His Grace.

Shhhh. Don't tell her, I haven't had the chance to ask her yet.
