Aftermath:

A small contingent of Hellions were on hand at Sherwood Forest to commemorate its 20th anniversary with the "Quest for the Grail" Viper scenario.. The Hellions were on the side of "Dennis and his anachro-syndicalist commune where they take it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week; but all decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting by a simple majority (blah, blah, blah)" wearing Blue arm bands. The Hellions were primarily there to have fun and enjoy the night game, with a few new gadgets to field test prior to their biggest game of the year--Living Legends III.

Hellions in attendance were: Buckshot, Grendel, Glenn, Honu, and Sky.

A selection of photos from the event are available in the Gallery.

Story Line:

Dennis, a member of a local anarcho-syndicalist commune, has organized the local peasantry in a revolt against King Arthur, claiming that "Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony." King Arthur, in the meantime, is leading his "Knights of the Round Table" on a quest for the most holy of relics: The Holy Grail.

Come tangle with the women of Castle Anthrax, take on the killer rabbit, match wits with the bridge keeper at "The Bridge of Death" and cross "The Gorge of Eternal Peril", be taunted by the Frenchmen at "Castle AAARRGGGHHH" as they pelt you with the "cow-a-pult," face the (moderately) dangerous "Black Knight", the Three-Headed Giant, the "Knights Who Say Ni", or the many other (mis)adventures waiting for you during your "Quest for the Grail."
