Our primary activity is Renaissance Rapier combat, and we field about 10
fighters on the various SCA war fields we attend. We also have crewmembers
involved with Medieval Armoured combat, Archery, and various Arts & Sciences
such as brewing, leatherworking, costuming.
We do research nautical
history, and are working on getting acquainted with actual seamanship. But
mostly we blend what we know of nautical history and traditions with some
mythical elements, and a good deal of 'sounds like fun.'
Calafia's bay is known as a haven for several pyrate
crews, and several freebooters have attached themselves to Horizon's End
over the years. However, the crew has agreed that while we there's some YARRR!
in our Yardarms, we're not Pyrates, but mostly law-abiding seafolk...
Thus, Horizon's
End is presently a merchant-marine, awaiting full commissioning in the Royal Crescent
Navy. Until then we serve as an armed escort for other ships through the pyrate-infested waters of Calafia's Bay
as the Freelance Calafian Maritime Defense Force (Franchises
available).
