The
Thrown Weapon Interkingdom Challenge, or TWIC, was born out of a series of ideas
discussed on an SCA-wide thrown weapons list. As the discussion died down, two
gentles: THL Evian Blackthorne and Lord Caedmon Wilson worked to create a set
of rules for the TWIC and released them on to the SCA at-large. Its purpose
was to mirror that of the Archery competition known as the IKAC. A contest for
throwers across the SCA to complete and compare scores with friends and strangers
in other kingdoms or right next door.
Evian did not live to see the completion of the first year of the TWIC (2003),
dying of a sudden heart attack in late 2003. It is to him that the TWIC is
forever dedicated. You are missed, friend.
In service to the Dream,
Lord Caedmon Wilson
