“The Pit” is a project by The Order of the List which strives to fine tune the fighting talents of the adventures of the realms both old and new.
“The Pit” debut under Jaha Rohde and Syruss at the Tourneys of the Blue Rose back in April of 2013. There the trio took time giving one on one personal instruction to different competitors.

Since its conception in 2013 the Pit has been at Green and Gold, Queen of Hearts, Order of the List Invitational, Tournaments of the Void, Feast of Folkestone, Feast of Blackwood, and Uncle Cecil’s Yule.
The Mission of the pit is to provide tutelage from people with over a decade of experience in the combat arts. We seek to teach the young and the old, the new and the seasoned veteran. Basically anyone and everyone who is willing to learn, who feels they have some area to improve and for people with personal fighting goals.
