SCA History

Started playing in 1982 in Madrone. Got serious about participation Fall 2004. House Madubi from around 1997 to 2005. Joined House Redstone Oct2006. Became Sergeantry Candidate (Yeoman) of Aquaterra in January 2008. I expect that I will be ready to pass Sergeantry Trials in Sep2009.

It is now the 6th year of Turf-Einar Rognvaldsson's rule in Orkney and 24th year of Konungr Harald's rule.

My estate ranches cattle and sheep, farms, and fishes. Good places to trade are in Dublin longphort, Jorvik, Oslo, and Manx.
