Welcome to the test version of the new Authorization Portal for An Tir. During the development process, you can send feedback to Feradach at [email protected]. Please use "Authorization Portal" in the subject line.
If you have encountered a bug, you can use the form below to report it. If you have a screenshot of the bug, please include it in the form.
The database for this test is filled with random users and authorizations so that you can test the portal. During the test, you will be able to create your own account using the button below. After creating an account you will be able to add authorizations and set yourself as a marshal officer on your account page. These features will not exist in the final version of the portal.

Welcome to the new digital home for An Tir's martial authorizations! This guide is designed to help you navigate the system, whether you're a fighter, a marshal, or an officer.
Click a question below to jump to the answer:
The primary difference in this new system is that it allows you to manage your own account directly. If you are a marshal, you can now manage authorizations for fighters in real-time rather than submitting paperwork to the Kingdom Authorization Officer. Future features will be added over time.
When your account is first created, you will receive an email with a username and a temporary password. The first time you log in, you will be prompted to choose a new, permanent password.
If you don't know your password or username, use the "Forgot your password or need to recover your account?" link on the login page.
If you no longer have access to the email address on file, please contact the Kingdom Authorization Officer for assistance.
There are two primary ways to find people:
The system provides two ways to display search results:
You can switch between views using the "Switch to..." button at the top of any search results page.
After finding a person using search, click on their name to go to their fighter page. This page displays their name, branch, any marshal officer roles they hold, and all current authorizations. If you are viewing your own page, a link will be available to manage your user account.
Navigate to any fighter's profile page. At the bottom, you will find "Download Fighter Card" buttons. The system generates separate PDF cards for different categories of authorizations:
SCA rules require all combatants to have a waiver on file. A current, paid membership card fulfills this requirement. If you are not a current member, you must sign a digital waiver to be authorized.
To do this, log in, navigate to your account page, and click the "Sign Waiver" button. Once signed, your waiver is valid for one year. When you receive a new authorization, the system checks if the new expiration date is further out than your current waiver, and if so, extends the waiver to match.
Until you have signed the waiver, none of your authorizations will be active.
Once logged in, go to your account page from the main menu. On this page, you can:
A legal guardian (for minors) or the Kingdom Authorization Officer can also edit this information.
As a marshal, the home page becomes your dashboard. You will see links to common actions like adding new fighters or viewing branch marshals.
If you have "Senior Marshal" status in any discipline, a button labeled "Add a New Fighter to the Database" will appear on the home page. This takes you to a form where you must enter the new person's information. The system will automatically create their user account and send an email with a username and temporary password.
First, navigate to the fighter's profile page. At the bottom, you will find the "Add New Authorization" form.
The system will validate the request against the rules for that discipline (age, prerequisites, etc.) and will prevent invalid authorizations. If you are the Authorization Officer, you will also see a field to select which Senior Marshal is granting the authorization.
Authorizing a marshal requires a multi-step approval process to ensure oversight:
The Kingdom Authorization Officer can bypass all steps and approve any marshal authorization directly. Any fighter with a pending marshal authorization will have it displayed on their fighter page, where eligible marshals can approve it.
When a marshal logs in, they will see a list of pending authorizations for their area. Baronial marshals see pending items for their branch, while Regional and Kingdom marshals see pending items for all branches within their domain that require their level of approval.
This action is restricted to the Kingdom Authorization Officer. To appoint a marshal:
This action is restricted to the Kingdom Authorization Officer. Navigate to the "View Branch Marshals" page from the main menu. On the results page, you will see "Extend" and "End Now" buttons for each appointment:
The Kingdom Authorization Officer or Earl Marshal can issue sanctions.
From the home page, click "Manage Sanctions" to search for all `Revoked` authorizations. From the search results, the Kingdom Authorization Officer or Earl Marshal can lift the sanction, which changes its status back to `Active`.
On every fighter's profile page, the Kingdom Authorization Officer will see a text box under "Officer Comments." You can add, edit, or remove text and click "Update Comments" to save. This section is only visible to the Authorization Officer.
