Beltaine has a a fiercely loyal fanbase and is one of the most antipiated events of the year. Each Beltain has a different theme. The theme for Beltaine XII will be: Race Against time.

Quote: Izareth "Beltaine 12: Race Against Time

There will be a plot driven series of battles that will not disrupt the field.

There will be a feast on Friday night followed by a feast on Saturday night.

There will be V.I.P. treatment of all Belegarth people who came from West of the Mighty Mississippi.

There will be prizes and battles and reviewing stands for judges and big team battles and 'artifact weapons' to win and take home and fun and field obstacles to fight on and fighting and braggin' rights galore!!!

There is a Malevolent force coming to DurDemarion, we beseech you to come compete in our contest to find the 12 champions of Beltaine."
