How to Join

Once you have decided to strike out on great adventure, you may purchase your days of play at the RenQuest™ encampment.

• Receive your Travelers Handbook, so you can record all your points

• Receive and sign your Code Of Conduct and Player Contact Information (Or print them off and bring them with you!)

• Receive your numbered faction affiliation badge
  • Badges identify RenQuest™ players to folks at the Faire and need to be worn whenever you are on a quest. Replacements for lost badges are $5.00

• Receive your first quest and let the Adventure Begin!

More Information

If you want more information about the quests and about playing before choosing to play, go to the RenQuest™ Camp. This is the home of the Band of the Twisted Claw. It’s marked on the Faire map with the RenQuest™ logo and is across from the Friends of Faire Garden.

Any of the gypsies of the Band can explain more about playing and the fees. You may even have audience with Master Thoren Grymm, himself.

Playing

As you complete your quests, return to the RenQuest™ Camp to register your points earned and to receive further orders.

Be sure to check in at the end of your day of Adventuring so that the Band of the Twisted Claw may obtain a final point tally and keep your quest sheet safe.

At the end of the weekend, Travelers’ points are all tallied and the individual and faction leaders are posted on the Bristol Renaissance Faire website. Click to see the Champions page.

Returning to Play Another Day

Check in at the RenQuest™ Camp to receive your current player sheet and next quest. It’s just that simple!

Additional days of play may be purchased at any time.

Master Thoren Grymm and all of the Band of the Twisted Claw are happy to provide information. They may be found at the RenQuest™ Camp or at renquest.brf@gmail.com

Join Thoren Grymm and friends as they take you around the streets of Bristol to experience the local Public Houses and Taverns the Twisted Claw way! On your journey, you will visit 5 pubs for a time of drink, song, laugh, drink and some other stuff found only in certain magazines! This will sell out early so stop by the Twisted Claw Encampment (across from Friends of Faire) to sign up. Participation gets you one drink at each of the 5 pubs. Players of RenQuest™ receive a discount when paying. Must be 21 to participate (IDs will be checked for everyone). Please drink responsibly, Thoren likes return customers!

The dastardly Snifflewort has stolen the magical treasure, poisoned our pet troll, Stirling, AND eaten all the cookies! Join Will and Wanda Spellworthy (along with many featured characters from Kids Kingdom) to heal the troll, recover the treasure and make cookies safe again for everyone. Specifically for our players aged 4-10, these 30 minute quests begin at the RenQuest™ Camp twice daily and cost $5 per child to play. The first quest is completely different than the second quest so you may do either or both! Size is limited so sign up early! Parents must accompany children while on the quest.
