Ashida 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.
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 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, stopping at Lionsdale.
Now in An Tir, she never has anytime to do all of the things she would like to do! Some of her most recent include: Reading the laws/history/culture of An Tir, Painting Charters for Kingdom awards, Marshalling Heavy combat, Running Lists, Dancing, Heraldry, Arts and Sciences, Creating period garments, researching culture of Japan.
Some great milestones that she will always remember:
- Asked to be Lady Elspeth Selwode of Wilton's Lady in Waiting
- Invited to become Her Ladyship Genevieve d'Claurviux's first student
- Her first clinton war (her best event so far)
- Being tested as a Courtier of Lions Gate, even though she had only been in An Tir for a little over a Year
- Having gained the companionship of new friends from close and afar.
Currently, Ayame lives besides the house of oranges, and often visits the barony of Lions Gate to badger the current Baron and Baroness. She does heraldry research for the gentles of the shire in her spare time, and paints devices as well. 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 Cipango/Nihongo/Japan still.
One day, she will travel back to her homeland.
The current year is "Hinoe Inu - Year of the Dog, Elder Brother of Wood" / 2006 C.E. / AS 41
