SCA History
Ming Lum Pee began his career in the SCA in Montengarde, 1989. A friend from Medieval Studies at UoC invited him to attend an actual medieval feast, and since then it's been hard to keep him out.
Ming then moved to the Barony of Seagirt and became involved in the heavy community there (see Infamy bellow on Ming's first suit of armour). Later on in 2006 he helped form the Tree Huggers, a fighting company that roamed the length and breadth of An Tir, stirring up good times and drum beats under their unmistakable Bedouin tent, 'Big Blue'.
Ming was Squired to Sir Kheron Azov in AS## and once served as Captain of the Guard when Sir Kheron reigned as Prince of Tir Righ.
Ming enjoys all aspects of fighting. He regularly participates in pas de arms, Coronet and Crown level tournaments as well as becoming Warboss of the Treehugers, Seagirtian Warlord and Tir Righ Commander in one of An Tir's numerous wars against the West. He's served as Heavy Fighting champion for the Shires of Craigmere, False Isles and the Barony of Seagirt.
In AS43, Ming and his lady Elina became the fourth Baron and Baroness of Seagirt.
Ming has brought all his passion for teaching and mentorship to the SCA, and lends his hands and support to the Barony around him. He freely gives of his expertise to any budding fighter, leatherworker, or warmonger. As Baron, he introduced the Marksman Tournament to the Daffodil, thus allowing the most skilled archer of the day to stand beside the Daffodil Defender and the Captain of Seagirt's Grenadiers. New faces and old are made to feel welcome around Ming as he sits by the fire, laughing at stories and songs or regailing others with the saga of "Sir Abu and the Gophers".
Ming and Elina are married and have a son, Tristan, who is unsure some days if he will grow up to be Mongolian or Welsh.
