Here's mine:
For the first time in all of MOC's history, the magical.... ness that is L.A.R.P. will be brought to it's students.
For those of you who do not know what L.A.R.P. is or would like to know more about it, I suggest that you visit the following website: www.larp.com
As you've probably already guessed, S.W.O.R.D. is in fact an acronym. If you have not already guessed what it is, I would be honored to spell it out for you.

That's right, pretty sweet huh? I'll take the time now to thank Toby for coming up with this beautiful acronym. Carrying on.
The Idea:
Our hopes are to gather up a fair amount of students from our high school (no matter the grade level) and give them a chance to duke it out with foam swords and shields. Not only will this give people a chance to gather together, but it gives everyone a chance to meet people from other grades and get some exercise while they're at it.
The Countries:
As of now, we are planning on having 4 countries and all participaters will be placed in one of these countries. When battle time comes, the nations will fight against each other and the last standing country wins the round. Simple enough right?
The Hows and Whens:
At some point during this school year, sign up papers will be hung around the school. If you wish to partake in a S.W.O.R.D. fight, that is your chance to make it known. When everyone that wants to is signed up, the Council of Nine will split up everyone into the four countries and these line ups will be posted as soon as possible.
Though this is currently how we plan everything to go, they are subject to change.
Equipment:
Any kind of weapon that you can think of is allowed as long as it is 1) A non projectile based weapon (bows, javelins) and 2) made of some kind of foamy material so no real damage is done to your poor victim.
If you want to know how to make a cheap, easy sword, there are plenty of good videos on youtube that can show you how.
Shields and armor are allowed but the armor itself will give no special protection. They shield may be used to block blows though.
Your weapons may be of any length or size, just realize that the bigger it is, the faster you will tire and the slower your attacks.
More information dealing with rules and times and other specifics will be posted as soon as possible. If you have any questions, make a thread and I'll try to answer it. And invite your friends! The more people we have the more kick ass S.W.O.R.D. will be.
