Komatsu no Ayame is a lone travelling artisan. Her skills often render her quite personality, as well as her quick wit go along with her brush skills. Her history is dark, and confusing even sometimes to her. She often writes poetry to let her emotions flow through her.

'''Komatsu no Ayame-sama''' is a lone traveling artisan. Her skills often render her quite personality, as well as her quick wit go along with her brush skills.


She was born in "Kanoe Saru - Year of the Monkey, Elder brother of Metal" (1320 C.E.) As the seasons changed on the island of oki, she always in the spring went on a long journey back to her homeland of kamakura, to visit that place where all of her childhood still remained. On that faithful spring day crossing the ocean to get to the mainland, her ship sailed off course. A Typhoon raged. She was cast into the waters...Only some time later when she woke, she realized she wasn't in Japan anymore. This strange new place was full of interesting new people and places to see. And, with that, she found her belongings (some were a little wet...) and walked for many many miles, finally settling in [[Lionsdale]].

Currently, Ayame lives besides the house of oranges, and often visits the barony of Lions Gate to *badger* visit the current Baron and Baroness. She does heraldry research for the gentles of the shire and paints devices as well. Very recently she has started to lend her skills to charter and scroll illumination, which she enjoys very much. Ayame wishes to one day have her own house, own her own land, and carry on life in An Tir, as if she were living in Japan still.

Lady Ayame, beaming with pride and honour after recieving her AoA, AS 41


Komatsu no Ayame-sama is a lone traveling artisan. Her skills often render her quite personality, as well as her quick wit go along with her brush skills.

She was born in "Kanoe Saru - Year of the Monkey, Elder brother of Metal" (1320 C.E.) As the seasons changed on the island of oki, she always in the spring went on a long journey back to her homeland of Kamakura, to visit that place where all of her childhood still remained. On that faithful spring day crossing the ocean to get to the mainland, her ship sailed off course. A Typhoon raged. Only some time later when she woke, she realized she wasn't in Japan anymore. This strange new place was full of interesting new people and places to see. And, with that, she found her belongings (some were a little wet...) and walked for many many miles, finally settling in Lionsdale.
