The Barony has become a bit more martial (heavy list) under Johanna and
Aquel, that is something that will have to be continually nurtured and I
would have to make an effort on my part to maintain.  Carolingia has
shown a marked tendancy to slide towards an arts and service heavy
concentration with martial getting less attention.

To encourage the various martial arts, I would like to see a little more
flash for the Baronial champions and guards as well as for the Baronial
fighters.  The recent fighting tabards and blue and gold shirts worn by
the fighters are serving tabards and LARP garb that I made around the
time of my entry to the Barony.  They sat in storage, for a while but
still they are almost a decade old and were never designed for that
activity.
<p>
I would like to bring back some of the flash of the CRC, but spread
across all of the martial activites.

I would like to make the Baronial court and processions a bit more
colorful with more banners, better costumes and a bit more dramatic
air.  Well, I am a costume Laurel, what did you expect.  :)   While I
want things to be more impressive, I would like to keep the approachable
air that Johanna and Aquel maintained.
