'''Emelyn Fulredy''' is the newly-minted deputy to Ji'lid [[Hazel Leaf]].
'''Emelyn Fulredy''' is a heraldry zealot and [[courtier]]. She has previously filled the offices of [[Hazel Leaf Pursuivant]] (2013-2016, 2018-2019) and [[College of Heralds|Boar Pursuivant]] (2017-2019). She was the first and fourth [[The Bardic Champion of Terra Pomaria|Bardic Champion]] of [[Terra Pomaria]].


She lives in [[Terra Pomaria]] with her awesome husband, Gregory de Munemuth, and two young sons. After spotting an Ithra gathering, Emelyn dove headfirst into heraldry and was pretty much never heard from again. Gregory has been an exceptionally good sport about it all. They came to their first ceilidh in October 2012.
Armorial research, design, and consulting are Emelyn's primary passions. She also loves onomastics and the "voice" side of heraldry. Her [[eureka syndrome|other interests]] include period music (for voice, recorder, or pipe-and-tabor), scribal arts (mainly drawing), persona development, and backgammon. She is mentored in heraldry by Lærifaðir [[Oddr Þiálfason]].


Emelyn has a severe case of [[eureka syndrome]]. Her primary <strike>interest</strike> obsession is heraldry, especially armorial design and research. This is followed closely by singing period songs (especially ballads) and drawing period images (especially drolleries). Her tertiary interests are...well, 95% of the other arts and sciences. She also plays a lot of backgammon.
Emelyn's charming and friendly husband, Gregory de Munemuth, supports her by chasing their three young sons around. If you see him at an event, please challenge him to a game of chess! Their family and friends comprise Human House.


Gregory (who is active, but less involved than Emelyn, and whose page is therefore redirecting here for now) plays and studies chess and is interested in getting better at archery. Daniel, the elder son, likes brandishing toy swords at people. Noah, the younger one, likes trying to put them in his mouth.

Persona

In persona, Emelyn and Gregory are Lincolnshire folk of exactly 700 years ago, which makes this 1323 for them. Their aesthetic and historical touchstone is the Luttrell Psalter.

Emelyn was born in Cambridge to a lay astronomer and his wife. Gregory is the second son of a Knight Hospitaller who disappeared shortly after settling his family in recently-conquered Wales. After working all his life to become a priest, Gregory dropped out of his schooling just weeks shy of receiving tonsure in order to marry Emelyn instead. Fleeing north from the ensuing scandal, they ended up in Lincoln. There they earned the favor and patronage of an eccentric vicar who now employs Gregory as a clerk, courier, and tutor at the magnificent new Lincoln Cathedral.
