Álvar Guerrero
New to the SCA, Álvar Guerrero, mundanely known as Tony Hernandez officially joined along with his wife Liadan the Sincere and 15 month old daughter Arya several hours after his first fighters practice within the College of Lyonsmarche on January 17th, 2010.
Persona
I am a Spanish Conquistador in the 16th century. A follower of Antonio de Espejo on his expedition into New Mexico and Arizona during 1582-1583. Born in Córdoba, Spain on April 29th, 1550, I grew up among the poor nobility and merchant classes of the city. Seeing the New World as an opportunity to make a name for myself, I purchased passage by selling off my share of the horses of my father and never looked back. I arrived in Santa Barbara, Chihuahua in early April which was good fortune for me as the return of the Chamuscado-Rodriguez expedition. It was while hearing the stories of their exploits that I met Antonio de Espejo and joined his cause to ascertaining the fate of two priests who had remained behind with the Pueblos when Chamuscado led his soldiers back to Mexico. With several horses, the last of my share from Spain, we set out on November 10th, 1582. Antonio de Espejo lead us, a group of fourteen soldiers, a priest, about 30 Indian servants and assistants, and 115 horses.
Tracking my own mundane heritage to Spain has had a great influence on my choice.
