When the olde race of Ginnic Scots passed, destroyed by the British, under Edward the Longshanks, the few bitter survivors of that last terrible battle atop Reilltoch, under Argyle III Salochstagh, fled to the woods and mountains of the Scottish Highlands. Argyle swore his men would renew the O'Reilly kingdom of old through vengeance. They seek to smite the ancestors of their enemies and spill blood in Ginneigh's name. They offer their mercenary services to those who dare ask for it, and bring the might of their great swords to battle.



The Fact


Argyle III, before ever hearing of such a thing as Dagorhir, began attending some local boffer fights that were being organized by some high school seniors in the Summer of 2005. The game was called wompem, and two teams usually faced eachother in vicious unsafe and orderless melee, wielding shabbily padded pvc pipes and broomsticks.

    Before long, Arygle took up the title Lord of the Womp, and brought order to the game. Opposing clans were organized, and new members were being ushered in from everywhere to the new Palatine Wompem League. The sport became so popular that the neighboring town of Barrington challenged the Palatine warriors to an all out war. The senior year for Argyle of 05-06 saw the bloodiest war the small suburban town of Palatine had ever seen, and Wompem was a success. 
   By the time the next summer came along attendance was dwindling, and Argyle and a handful of Wompem veterans began searching for alternatives to wompem to quench their thirst for medeival combat. He soon found Dagorhir, and with that everything changed.
     Argyle, and a company of 5 fighters went to Ragnarok XXI and sought to become a permanent unit within the DBGA or Belegarth Medeival Combat Society.
