Drentha, along with the rest of Dagorhir, is on TV! Look for reruns of the January 20 episode of Discovery Channel's Wreckreation Nation to see Drentha and her brothers in arms in action.
Drentha is a unit of Dagorhir, and meets weekly to recreate full-contact medieval, Lord of the Rings-style combat in a safe, competitive setting. Dagorhir fighting is unchoreographed, physically intense, and uses foam-padded weapons to keep everyone alive.
On the battlefield, Drentha is a company of mercenaries, gathered from the corners and dust heaps of the dark ages. We fight with the armies of Angaron. We don't care what we're asked to do, so long as we can put our swords to use, collect our wages, and rest round the fire at the end of the day.
In the real world, Drentha is a motley collection of people from different walks of life who get together every weekend to develop our fighting skills and enjoy our real-life comaradarie. We often travel to local Dagorhir battles, feasts, and campouts, and host several yearly events ourselves.
New fighters are welcome, even if you've never swung a sword before! We always have extra equipment and will gladly show a new person the ropes. Shoot us an email and stop by one of our practices, and we'll do our best to make you feel at home.
Drentha was founded in the summer of 2006.
