Heraldry
History
First Meeting:12/15/2002 Last meeting:6/12/2005 Broken Shield was a Sunday park in the heart of Dallas, at White Rock Lake Park. It was formed by Yoni and Elder. Yoni wanted a Sunday park in Dallas as he could not attend Saturday parks, and Elder wanted a closer Sunday park so that he and his friends could play Amtgard on both Saturday and Sunday. The majority of the populace were former Midnight Sun members, and for a long time the only battle company present was Gryphon's Claw. There was a time period in 2003 that Midnight Sun considered merging with Broken Shield as the attendance at Midnight Sun averaged 3, whereas the attendance at Broken Shield was in the high teens. Fortunately the attendance at Midnight Sun recovered and the two parks coexisted with quite a lot of cross attendance until the decline of Broken shield in 2005. In early 2005 the population reached a low point, averaging 3 a week, and plans were made to merge with Iron Cloud and the people trying to restart Tear Glen to form Campus Supernus. Ironically Campus Supernus did not last a year, and the members who had left Midnight Sun so many years ago voted to return their residency there in 2006.
