Mathieu Thibaud Chaudeau de Montblanc

Don Mathieu Thibaud Chaudeau de Montblanc

SCA History

• My first event was the first Machievelli Memorial Feast held on the Island in 1988 or 1989... but I had come out and met many Seagirtian's at every UVic clubs day from 1984 until 1988.

• I remember going to May Crown AS 24 with Lady Isabelle de la Roche (then Rowan ni Sionnach) and being dumped to find my own fun because she was on Meagan's retinue.

• I remember Iain Ruadh nan Madadh (now Don Iain Archibald Guthrie), setting himself on fire at a Seagirt Secret Tourney and claiming the title "Hottest Man in Seagirt".

• Three, yes that's three goes at being Seneschal of Seagirt.
