Finn
Finn, aka Finn McGill, participated in Amtgard as a member of the Kingdom of the Emerald Hills, and is listed in the 7th edition rulebooks as a rulebook contributor.
Because of a series of incidents involving credible, recorded threats of bodily harm and violence against him issued by Brendon Meiners (Glorious) and from others, which were made known to all responsible and relevant current Officers of the Emerald Hills, and the subsequent failure to properly handle the original incident on the part of the Officers and perhaps also other Elected Functionaries of the Kingdom of the Emerald Hills, Finn no longer participates in Amtgard:
Due to violations of the Emerald Hills corpora undertaken by some Officers of the Kingdom of the Emerald Hills, specifically violation of the following:
EH corpora V.D.3.
The Althing may consist of the following:
* Discussion and enactment of rule changes
* Revision and updating of the Corpora
- Discussion and voting on major expenditures of the club treasury
- Discussion of the future of the Kingdom and its priorities
with respect to the Emerald Hills Zero Tolerance Policy (published at http://www.amtgard-eh.com/library/EH_Zero_Tolerance_12.9.06.htm ), a policy which would prevent Brendon Meiners from carrying through with his original threat of bodily harm or making further threats of bodily harm, a policy which was voted upon by the Althing of the Emerald Hills on 9, December, 2006, and is therefore either a rule change or a revision to the corpora or a major expenditure or a future priority of the kingdom, which is clearly not a rule change nor a major expenditure, and which has never been incorporated into the official published Corpora and when published and distributed contained a disclaimer stating that it was not a part of the Corpora. This contradicts the clear pre-existing language of the Corpora.
Finn will likely not be attending again until such time as the Kingdom of the Emerald Hills makes the safety of its' participants a current (and not future) priority, and there are people in office who will take appropriate action when reasonably necessary.
