The Red Belt Test

By Seamas Mac Daibhid & THL Moira Nic Bryn

Last Additions April XLII (2008)

In recent years my lady Moira and I have noticed that some people aren't sure just what makes an SCA fighter a Red Belt. After all, you don't wear the darn belt all the time. Even when you do wear it, well, the most common form of color-blindness is Red-Green, especially among men. For all you know, you could really be Apprentice to a Laurel instead of Squire to a Knight.

Lady Moira and I think we can help. After some discussion, we've worked out a bunch of the principal characteristics of a Red Belt. If you aren't sure about yourself, take this simple quiz and the matter should clear right up. Just click repeatedly on the belt button below to take the test. Good luck!
