Lochlan was once a group sponsored by Goldenvale. After many episodes of lost paperwork and non-communication, the group began to seek sponsorship elsewhere. During a year of some inner-turmoil and upheaval, a pivotal point was reached in May 2005 when a core group of devoted individuals and newer players opted to take charge and move the group forward.
With this, Lochlan was disbanded and reformed with the blessing of the Amtgard, Inc. BoD and became Hawks' Point. The group immediately petitioned The Principality of Winter's Edge under Neverwinter and was accepted into the group at WE Coronation held July 2005 at Camp Carlson outside Elizabethtown, Kentucky.
