Summary

Anejiro no Tamiko, also known as Miko for short, has participated in the SCA since about 2001.

Though her name has changed a couple of times she has always played a Japanese persona. In 2007 Anejiro no Tamiko along with Taðkr ormstunga, Senen, & Toomachi no Shichiro formed a new house known as House Jormungandr.
