About
How is the current Marshall and Club Commander of Valhalla. He is a dedicated fighter and one of the few people in the world to fight with his glasses on.
He was introduced to Belegarth-style combat from a chance encounter at the PSU club rush event, Party in the Park with the PSU Medieval Combat Club booth and then-current-leader, Hans Albing. At that time, he was an on-again-off-again fighter, learning basic tactics and combat skills from officers Roy Higgins and Chris Cottrell. After some time, due to scheduling and neglect, he disappeared from the fighting world for about a year. Coming back in 2008, he came to find many of the older members gone and retired. Meeting new fighters, his spirit returned, and he resumed training and learning new combat styles. After Hans' departure as club leader in the spring of 2008, and subsequent leader Troy Zweber's short reign, he was surprised to discover his ascension to the club leader position in the winter of 2009.
At that point, he developed a renewed dedication to the club, and worked toward making it better than it had ever been before. He pushed for more practices and events, and over time, he succeeded. His long time friend and fellow officer Barl is responsible for developing relations with Cronus, [Tir na nOg]], and making the club an official Belegarth Realm.
He is now working with Demastes to create events between Valhalla and Tir na nOg, hoping to spread Belegarth to other schools and helping it become an intercollegiate sport.
Centurion
Centurion underwent construction in the summer of 2009. It was developed along its larger brother (which is still unnamed), and has undergone a few revisions. Over time, it lost its stabbing tip and gained layers of tape on its cross guard as well as its handle. The name Centurion is based on the fact that there are 100 pennies lining the handle.
