==History==
 +
Crimson Wood was founded in 2002 by a consortium of Amtgard devotees, including, among others, [[Keluric Tryst]], [[Gwendair Tryst]], [[Torbjorn]], [[Cedric Humm]], and [[Grix]]. The land grew to a [[Barony]] under the supervision of the kingdom of the [[Burning Lands]], but has since joined [[Westmarch]] in September of 2007.  At that time, the land also left BL for [[Dragonspine]], in accordance of the protocols set forth by said kingdom for the principality's creation, and was also promoted to [[Duchy]].
 +
 
 +
Since then that principality has grown to become the [[Kingdom]] of [[Westmarch]].
  
 +
In June 2023, [[Westmarch]] approved of their demotion to [[Barony]].

The [[Barony]] of Crimson Wood is fortunate to have the use of a fairly well-tended municipal park for its field days. (It does, however, get rather muddy in some parts in even faintly damp weather--dress accordingly.) Activities generally begin with ditching and then move to a wide variety of battlegames, ranging from jugging to treeball to capture-the-flag, and of course generally including at least one full-class battle. For the more energetic (and thus generally younger) citizens, the day often ends with chaos-res/kill-your-killer games or even occasionally Calvinball.

Crimson Wood features a wide age range of remarkably enthusiastic citizens and a healthy band of helpful, invaluable Color-class participants. It also is home to one of the largest attendee populations in the area.

The [[Duchy]] of Crimson Wood is fortunate to have the use of a fairly well-tended municipal park for its field days. (It does, however, get rather muddy in some parts in even faintly damp weather--dress accordingly.) Activities generally begin with a few rounds of ditching and then move to a wide variety of battlegames, ranging from jugging to treeball to capture-the-flag, and of course generally including at least one standard-class shatter battle. For the more energetic (and thus generally younger) citizens, the day often ends with chaos-res/kill-your-killer games or even occasionally Calvinball.<br>

Crimson Wood features a wide age range of remarkably enthusiastic citizens and a healthy band of helpful, invaluable Color-class participants. It also is home to one of the largest attendee populations in the area, which prompted its recent promotion to [[Duchy]] level, and which comprises a sizable portion of the citizens of the newly-formed Principality of [[Westmarch]].<br>

Since then, Crimson Wood has seen a fairly considerable infestation of [[Goblin|Goblins]]--so much so that two groups have taken up a martial grudge against one another. To wit, these are the [[Goblin House]] and [[Clan Gruk]]. In a perhaps confusingly-similar light, the native [[Order of the Elements]] group (of humans) has found a rival in [[Brotherhood of Azor]]. With all this conflict, it's no wonder we have battlegames!

A Barony in the Kingdom of Westmarch, located in Rohnert Park, CA.

History

Crimson Wood was founded in 2002 by a consortium of Amtgard devotees, including, among others, Keluric Tryst, Gwendair Tryst, Torbjorn, Cedric Humm, and Grix. The land grew to a Barony under the supervision of the kingdom of the Burning Lands, but has since joined Westmarch in September of 2007. At that time, the land also left BL for Dragonspine, in accordance of the protocols set forth by said kingdom for the principality's creation, and was also promoted to Duchy.

Since then that principality has grown to become the Kingdom of Westmarch.

In June 2023, Westmarch approved of their demotion to Barony.

General Information

The Barony of Crimson Wood is fortunate to have the use of a fairly well-tended municipal park for its field days. (It does, however, get rather muddy in some parts in even faintly damp weather--dress accordingly.) Activities generally begin with ditching and then move to a wide variety of battlegames, ranging from jugging to treeball to capture-the-flag, and of course generally including at least one full-class battle. For the more energetic (and thus generally younger) citizens, the day often ends with chaos-res/kill-your-killer games or even occasionally Calvinball.

Crimson Wood features a wide age range of remarkably enthusiastic citizens and a healthy band of helpful, invaluable Color-class participants. It also is home to one of the largest attendee populations in the area.

Crimson Wood also hosted the first three Feast of Mars events, but that event has been relocated to more southerly climes in recent years.
