Welcome to Greyglade!

Well met, weary traveler! Come, sit down, relax, and enjoy our company for a time.

Now, tell me, friend...

Have you ever wanted to swordfight?

Do you dream of medieval battles?

Would you like to meet elves, orcs, faeries, dwarves, drow, goblins, angels, demons, Romans, knights, Vikings, barbarians, and the like?

Here's a concept. You can.

How, you may ask?

The answer is simple: Dagorhir.

Dagorhir is a live action full contact battle game using padded weapons. It's a chance to shed your everyday 21st century cares and spend some time just hitting people. It's your ticket to parties, revels, competitions, tournaments, duels, slave auctions, dressing up in funny clothes, talking with a weird accent, and, of course, fighting until your heart's content. It lets you use a sword, axe, glaive, spear, flail, javelin, bow and arrows, and an endless variety of other medieval weapons.

It's your chance to live a fantasy. And it's cheap, easy, and available.

You know you want it.


The links on the right will allow you to browse around the Greyglade website (such as it is) and the existence of Dagorhir on the internet in general. And feel free to leave comments on anything you see that you like. If you'd like more information on practice times or location, or about Dagorhir as a whole, send me an email at greyglade (at) dagorhir (dot) com, or join our group on Facebook, as both are faster ways to reach us than the comments here.

Take a look. I'm betting you'll like what you see.

Upcoming Practices

[Updated 2/16/11]

If you just follow this site, you may be under the impression that Greyglade has been taking a rather lengthy, poorly-explained break. I regret to say that such suspicions are not entirely unfounded. However, in the wake of some big things coming to an end and life settling down once more, as well as the advent of Ides of March V next month, Greyglade practices for 2011 are starting up again. Practices are, as always, on Sundays at Hamilton Park at 2:30 (barring complications, of course; email before coming out to practice, because Things Come Up). The last practice before Ides will be February 27th, and then we will organize the remainder of our spring at that time.


Also, please be aware that Dagorhir's amazing season-opening weekend event, The Ides of March, is coming up very soon, March 10-13, 2011. Ides is an absolute blast, and is the biggest and best national event Dagorhir event that is easily accessible to Southerners such as ourselves. In addition, Greyglade has taken on the mantle of designing and running the day battles at Ides V, and we're very excited about premiering some of our ideas on a national stage. Come out and support us. We promise you'll have a good time.

Otherwise, as always, contact us by email or Facebook (feel free to join the group if you're interested in staying abreast of Dagorhir developments in North Alabama) before you plan a trip out to see what we're up to, as we rarely check this site. Hope to see you there!

This website is meant for general information and is not updated as regularly as we would like. If any of this grabs your interest, e-mail us at greyglade [at] dagorhir [dot] com with questions and for future practice times!
