Academia Draconis: The Tides of Vengeance

Hiding in the fog and mist, something lurks just beneath the waters. The land is changing yet again, as if a dread filled hush has fallen upon Dreiburgen. Fighters, come sharpen your skills at this Collegium of War, for it is time to defend the Barony again! Academia Draconis is a multi-day camping event designed to provide practical training on the battlefield, and personal development for chivalry and defense. With classes and discussions about Marshalling, Armored Combat, Rapier Combat, Youth Combat, and Art/Science skills that intersect with fighting, it’s not just a tournament but an all-encompassing weekend of martial skills! There will also be food and revelry as the Blue Mountain Inn returns on Saturday night!

Academia Draconis will be held March 15-17th, 2024, at Rancho Jurupa Regional Park.
