The Quests of Hugh Izzit
br>Follow along on the adventures of Hugh Izzit! The Quest of Hugh Izzit is a set of quests compiled by the Barony of Shattered Crystal, not just for new members, but for members who have been in the SCA for a while, too. Each set gives a list of items to try, perform, and accomplish to help one learn about the SCA, and the history and lifestyle of the Middle Ages/Renaissance. Any suggestions for new and different quests should be sent to the chatelain of the Barony of Shattered Crystal. All storylines, drawings, and compilations have been made by Cinaed Ulric, Amhranai tan Briongloid, mka Jonathan Thorn, and may be freely copied and used throughout the SCA, so long as proper credit is given. Please be sure to print out a copy of the instructions before beginning or distributing one of Hugh's quests.
br>NOTE: Beads and tokens for the Quests of Hugh Izzit are to be supplied by the local group. The Kingdom Chatelaine only has beads and tokens on hand for those participating in the Midrealm Newcomer's Quest, and only for groups who are unable to provide their own.
The Quests of Hugh Izzit are more in depth than the Midrealm Newcomer's Quest listed above and assume the person completing Hugh's quests has a bit more familiarity with the SCA than one just starting out. If you have someone brand new to the SCA, please start with the Midrealm Newcomer's Quest. If you have someone who's been to a few events, meetings, and is relatively active within the SCA, the Hugh Izzit series of quests may be a better resource.
