Captains and Hearts of Winter's Gate
There are two Captaincies per year (3 times before 1985).
The winner of the Heavy Tournament becomes Captain,
and whom he/she fights fights for becomes Heart.
Either the Fighter or his/her inspiration (or both)
must be from the Barony to enter the tournament.
After AS LI, Captaincy is held annually in Spring, Commander is held Annually in Autumn.
After AS LVI, the Captaincy and Commander tournies are held Annually in Autumn.
Upon Stepping down as Captain and Heart, the Captain is added to the Order of the Polar Bear, and the Heart to the Companion's of the Snowdrop.
