| Welcome to the Grendel Fighting Company Homepage. We are a fighting company based on the Viking Era in the Amtgard LARP society, and we are dedicated to living the dream! Above all, our objective is to have fun with both our company and those outside of the company in every aspect of Amtgard. The Company is an "open" company in that anyone is welcome to join. There are three levels of membership in the company. Those who seek to join us by petition are called "Thralls". This is the most basic level of membership. Thralls are welcome to camp with us, share in our fun and add to the esprit de corps that is so much a part of our group. Thralls do not wear company colors (black and gold) and are restricted from use of company equipment (tents, weapons, armor,etc.) but are very much a part of our family. The second level of Grendel is the Bondi. Bondi are players who have advanced past the level of Thrall by right of their own prowess in combat. A challange within the Holmgang must be won for this privledge to be bestowed. Bondi's are the "initiate" level of the group. They are allowed to wear our colors but not our symbol (the Raven). They camp, fight, and play with us. They are the drive of Grendel. The last level is the Jarl. Jarl's are full members of the "fighting" aspect of the fighting company. Jarl's are Bondi's who have won the acceptance of all other Jarl level members. Usually a vote is give to a Bondi on contingencey of the player completeing some Geas or Quest. The idea is to provide fun and friendship above all. There is no "pecking" order within the company, all Grendel are Grendel, regardless of level. Come viking with us!
