Greetings from Michelino!

I am Michelino di Gino Martini. I live in Aquaterra, in the Western Region of An Tir. I am a proud member of the Household / War Unit Clan Carn.

The Acadmey of Saint Gabrial said in their report - "The name <Michelino di Gino Martini> would have been pronounced roughly \mee-keh-LEE-noh dee DJEE-noh mar-TEE-nee\, with secondary stress on the first syllable of <Michelino>."

In the SCA, I enjoy fighting heavy in wars, wearing the beautiful garb my lovely wife, the Honorable Lady Lorenza, makes for me, and medieval games. One "peri-oid" game I especially enjoy is Kubb, despite it being very unlikely to be medieval. I've done a little archery, a bit of heraldry, occasional water-bearing, a few turns at constabulary, and the assorted gate. I've been playing since about A.S. XXXIV, not couting a one time trip to an event in A.S. XV.

Somehow I was convinced to become a protégé of Hrollaug "Ralg" Nilsen. Should you see me being naughty (a not infrequent occurrence) or especially lazy (frequent occurrence), be sure to report me to him. I'm always interested in tips on how to do interesting service.

Chi fa falla, e chi non fa sfarfalla. Those who act make mistakes; and those who do nothing really blunder.

Personna:

Well, let me tell-a you a story about a man named Michelino; He was a-sitting at at-a home just a-drinking of some vino. He went-a out one day, a-hunting up some pheasant; When he accidentally shot himself a peasant.

Dead, that is - manservant of the magistrate.

Well-a, the first-a thing you know, he's-a getting on a boat; His kinfolk said "Take-a anything that floats!" That's how he and Lorenza came to this present compan-eee; And suddenly left their beloved Napoli!

Ya all res soon now, ya hear?



I was bestowed with an Award of Arms in AS XLI.
