“Tourneys may make men kings, but melees make men gods…”
- Corwin of ArgentLupe
While we have a few members who enjoy the one-on-one prowess
of a tourney bout, ArgentLupe’s specialty is melee combat.
ArgentLupe’s weapons styles are varied, and
while most are authorized in several styles, each member definitely has a
favored form.

But there couldn’t be a battle without our waterbearing unit:
ArgentLupe’s Pit Crew is
kingdom-renowned! When they’re not out
kicking butt for House and for Kingdom, we’re
there, stripping armor, giving refreshment, or offering a cool water
spray.
So, what is waterbearing?
Beyond the physical exertion of a battle, the fighters are encased in
armor, and are toting heavy weapons and shields.
They can get dehydrated and overheated if they don’t get
help. During battles, there is the
occasional call of “waterbearers in!”
The fighting stops, and that’s when the waterbearers get out there and
give fresh water or Gatorade to the troops.
Sometimes fighters need to come off the field, and a waterbearer needs
to know how (and when) to help. The
ArgentLupe waterbearers know our fighters’ armor, and can get it on or off in a
hurry. (Duct tape is our friend.)
We do our very best to serve our Kingdom
well, and keep those fighters healthy and ready for battle.
A few ladies on the ArgentLupe Pit Crew:
We’re happy to train new waterbearers.
