I am a DM/GM for a role playing game, and I want to plan a large festival for the game. I want to have it as authentic as possible, but don't know where to start. From the various fiction sources I've read I have thought of the following:
- Jousting
- Archery
- that strength thing at carnivals today where you hit the lever and it sends the thing up to hit the bell
- ?
Any others that would have been at a "typical" festival ranging between about 1000AD-1600AD?
