Do you consider jousting to be a pansy sport for the nobles where nobody gets hurt? Where thick platemail shields your body from harm?? A sport where only the privileged ones can take part?!
If so, you’re
WRONG!
In Cove jousting is
exciting,
lethal, full of
gore and best of all it is available to even the most common man!
Here in the Barony the brave souls willing to take part will only wear minimal armor for protection
while using pitchforks, clubs and various other farming tools instead of lances while using well-crafted lances provided by the Adarastos family. Also, the glorious baron Octiovus has agreed to lend mounts from his personal stables for a meager fee. This is an opportunity you just cannot miss! Sign up today.
The winner shall receive a monetary prize as well as the prestige of being the
Champion of the Jousting Masters!
