Flashback to DragonCon last year. Unfortunately I won't be announcing at the Dragon's Cup Tournament this year. It's been a tough summer and I've had to pull back a bit while I get my life back together.

I'll put out a proper update about where I've been and what I'm getting into soon. Until then, I hope you all are well. Much love!

Beyond excited to once again be a part of this marvelous event in Clinton, TN! Come test your mettle in various feats so yours truly can then announce that you are the champion! Grand adventures and glorious competition await at the Trials of Ragnarök!

See the shared post for tickets and more details!

The myth, the legend... NAY I say!

THE WISE Mordecai Galand, aka Mort the Mage will again be your emcee this year at Trials of Ragnarök!

If you see him in the lanes of Trials be sure to get his sage advice!

🏹 Trials of Ragnarök is not your average Renaissance Faire or fantasy festival. Trials of Ragnarök is where strength is tested, allegiances are forged, and legends are made! Set at Carden Farm Dog Park in Clinton, Tennessee just 20 minutes outside of Knoxville. This family friendly Viking-inspired gathering calls warriors and wanderers to step into a world where myth becomes reality! And you choose your adventure as you walk through the gates.

I hope to see something like this at every festival eventually. Staying cool and hydrated is one of the most important things one can do at these shows, and I can't sing the praises of the Colorado Renaissance Festival enough for this station!

It was an epic day of Roguish Rambling at the Colorado Renaissance Festival

It's not every day I get to just run around and play at faire. If you haven't had the opportunity to visit this show, it has a stellar reputation for a reason!

Fly? What do you mean fly? Clarence doesn't fit well on a plane... So we'll have to change things up.

Off on a little vacation right now, and to add onto the adventure I'll be at the Colorado Renaissance Festival this Sunday having some fun as a patron.

I won't be in my usual Wizardly attire, any guesses as to what class I'm rolling this weekend?

Now that I've had a few days to rest, I just wanted to say that the last month spent at the West Virginia Renaissance Festival was absolutely brilliant! Such a fantastic show set in an absolutely gorgeous valley. I got to meet so many new people and made several new friends, while also seeing some familiar faces I hold dear. Marvelous experience from start to finish. If you didn't get to attend, I highly recommend adding this one to the bucket list!

I have some time off before my next show. I'll be tending to things around the wizard tower and will try to enjoy a little summer vacation. We'll be back before you know it. Cheers, my friends!

It was a wet start, but we took the proper measures to chase off the rain ...
