- Offered entry into the Order of the Pelican at Lions Gate Baroness' Winter Tourney XL/2005.
Yolande is a lady-in-waiting in the household of the Duke and Duchess of Burgundy in Dijon, France in the year 1453. She is a lady-in-waiting to the duchess, assists with the duties of the chamberlain and often travels with the ducal court. Some time ago, her lord husband Lucullus (an Englishman) was thrown from his horse and hit his head on a rock, and now he thinks that he is part of the Romano-British army circa 500 AD. Yolande alters her clothing and re-creates this time period to humour him. The Duke is especially fond of this type of re-enactment.
Yolande enjoys being a lady-in-waiting to royalty, autocratting, running the Lists, waterbearing, shopping on merchants row, dancing, watching court, watching combat, Ithra classes, and helping others. Her interests also lie in research, persona development, costuming, period fabrics, spinning, embroidery, calligraphy, and period methods of waterbearing.
