According to the Atlantian Minister of Arts and Sciences' website:
All Champions are created and selected by the Crown for the duration of their reign.
The Atlantia A&S Champions were updated at Atlantia Curia in March 2024 by TRMs Ragnarr and Mary Isobell. See the article in The Oak for details on that change: https://oak.atlantia.sca.org/changes-in-atlantia-law-affecting-the-as-community/
- The Kingdom Arts and Sciences Champion is chosen PER REIGN.
- Winter Reign A&S Champion can be expected to support the Gulf Wars A&S Competition. If the Champion does not compete at Gulf Wars, they can be expected to help find a different person to compete as proxy at Gulf Wars for Atlantia.
- Summer Reign A&S Champion can be expected to support the Pennsic A&S Competition. If the Champion does not compete at Pennsic, they can be expected to help find a different person to compete as proxy at Pennsic for Atlantia.
Each Crown selects their own A&S Champion using the method of their choosing. Royal Champions are different from Royal Notables. Please see the Notables page for further details: https://moas.atlantia.sca.org/royal-notables/
