Suggest Criteria

Order of the Smith

template by Alona Twotrees

Qualification for Masterhood: 10 Orders of the Smith

Given by: Monarch and Regent (to 9th), Grand Duke/Duchess (to 9th), Duke (to 7th), Baron(ess) (to 4th)

Given for: Sponsoring major Amtgard events, workshops or other comparable service to the club.

Limitations: None, however a minimum of 10 of this order are needed to qualify for Masterhood.

Belt Favor: Red belt favors with a Black border and diagonal mark across the bottom. Masterhood will be denoted by a gold braid or

ribbon down the middle.

SUGGESTED criteria: All criteria listed here are just that, suggested. They are BY NO MEANS requirements. This Monarch's Handbook is NOT intended to be a barrier between DESERVING individuals and their just rewards; rather, it is intended as a guideline for groups to use for rewarding their populace. If it can be generally agreed that a person deserves a certain award, even if they may not quite pass muster by the letter of This Monarch's Handbook, then they should probably get the award anyway.

Number of awards, Criteria, (not to be confused with who can give them, refer to "given by" for that information)

1st for running classes or quests in their Shire. All these must be done successfully.

2nd for running classes, quests, local qualifications or feasts in their Duchy, Barony or Shire and fulfilling the criteria for the 1st Smith. All these must be done successfully.

3rd for running classes, quests, local qualifications in their Duchy, Barony or Shire and fulfilling the criteria for the 2nd Smith. All these must be done successfully.

4th for running demos, sponsoring competitions, classes, quests, local qualifications, and feasts in their Grand Duchy in their Duchy, Barony or Shire and fulfilling the criteria for the 3rd Smith. All these must be done successfully.

5th any combination of three or more of the following: running demos, sponsoring competitions, classes, quests, local qualifications or feasts in their resident Kingdom, Grand Duchy, Duchy, Barony or Shire and fulfilling the criteria for the 4th Smith. All these must be done successfully.

6th any combination of three or more of the following: running demos, sponsoring competitions, classes, quests, local qualifications or feasts, in their resident Kingdom or Grand Duchy and fulfilling the criteria for the 5th Smith. All these must be done successfully.

7th any combination of four or more of the following: running demos, sponsoring competitions, classes, quests, local qualifications or feasts, in their resident Kingdom or Grand Duchy and fulfilling the criteria for the 6th Smith. All these must be done successfully.

8th any combination of five or more of the following: running demos, sponsoring competitions, classes, quests, resident Kingdom qualifications or feasts, in their resident Kingdom and fulfilling the criteria for the 7th Smith. All these must be done successfully.

9th for performing all or more of the following: running demos, sponsoring competitions, classes, quests, local qualifications, feasts, in their resident Kingdom or Inter-Kingdom event sponsored by their resident Kingdom and fulfilling the criteria for the 8th Smith. All these must be done successfully.

10th for performing all or more of the following: running demos, sponsoring competitions, classes, quests, local qualifications, feasts, running Inter-Kingdom events sponsored by their resident Kingdom and fulfilling the criteria for the 9th Smith. All these must be done successfully.

Masterhood is granted once all the criteria has been fulfilled and the Monarch feels that nothing else is required. In the instance where awards have been garnered from another Chapter it will be up to the discretion of the Monarch with input from the Master Smiths to decide if additional criteria is required.

Note: The higher the level, the harder it is to achieve more orders of the Smith. No one has ever achieved Master Smith (10+ Smith credits) status without sponsoring an Inter-Kingdom event successfully.
