Revision as of 19:27, 1 September 2012
Blüdfrost (purposely mispronounced blood frost) is a Freehold of Amtgard - a live action boffer combat game with medieval reenactment undertones - operating out of the city of Paducah in western Kentucky. The club is ran by members of the analog/tabletop club the Quilt City Ogres. The freehold is currently petitioning for membership in the Kingdom of the Valley of the Rising Winds.
Contents
Heraldry
The group's Heraldry is azure, a rose sable barbed and seeded Vert representing death, and it's words are simply "By Force." However, a joking submotto is "Don't forget the umlaut".
History
The chapter was formed by members of the Quilt City Ogres, a chapter of the international analog gaming club - the Organization of Gamers & Roleplaying Enthusiasts - operating in Paducah, Kentucky as an outlet for live action gaming. The park was officially recognized in October of 2011, and began fully gaming weekly by January of 2012.
Chapter Name
The purposeful mispronouncing of the letter Ü is a joke, referencing a fictional location in DC Comics that a writer once misused the letter in - not understanding the sound it is supposed to make.
Officers
For a full listing of officers, including current and former since the park's beginning, please see here.
Unique Battlegames
Park War
Blüdfrostians partake in a land control game from one session to the next, where players are able to challenge via dueling other players for fictional hexes of land. The Blüdfrost map, which coordinates directly with the shape and size of the park the chapter plays in, is divided by hexs that can be controlled by players, whether individually or by House/Company. The map is "reset" annually, with each Land Control campaign lasting roughly six months. The winner is the player who controls the most or all land by the end of that game's season. The inaugural season began in January of 2012.
A blank version of the original hex map, based off a former park, can be seen here.
Park Weaponmaster
The Blüdfrost weaponmaster tournament is known as the Blüdfrost Occasional Fight Festival or as B.O.F.F. and it is held twice annually. Sign-ins are taken in advance online and at-park via the Blüdfrost Occasional Fight Festival Event Registration (B.O.F.F.E.R.). For a history of outcomes, please click here.
Park Relics
Blüdfrost currently has two local relics in use: a pair of Gauntlets of Ogre Power and a Compass of True Sight.
Roster
Here is a roster of Blüdfrost players who have registered heraldic devices with the park's Guildmaster of Heraldry, in a roll of arms form. For a basic listing of players with articles on Amtwiki, please see the chapter's user category.
