Difference between revisions of "Grim Fang war-dance"

As each Elgan in the line stomps in time to the rhythm, one person runs down the middle of the lines, fending off the blows of the other dancers who hop from one foot to the other as they strike the runner and shout. The runner rejoins the dancers at the close end of the line, prompting the dancer at the far end to break off and become the runner for the next round. The runner is encouraged to avoid as many strikes as possible with their agility and whatever protection their own weapon may provide, and a steady procession down the 'jaws' being considered ideal.
