This is something that can be either taken seriously, or simply a part of the [[game]] that [[SCA]] is. For some, their consort could be their boyfriend/girlfriend, husband/wife, for others it's simply a friend. It is generally a [[fighter]] and his lady/her man, although if they are '''both''' fighters they can be consort to each other. Either way, to formalise the friendship, [[favour]]s are exchanged, and should be worn whenever the fighter participates in [[combat]] for the consort.

If the person you are to be consort to is in a relationship, does the other person know? (some people can become awkward about such things).
