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.
Most members of the group are also members of the House of Ogswald, though there is a contingent of House Naaraya'loki sympathizers.
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."
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.
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 hex map can be seen here.
Roster
Here is a full roster of Blüdfrost players, in a roll of arms form. For a basic listing of players with articles on Amtwiki, please see the chapter's user category.
