Persona
Archibald the Red was born in mid 16th century Scotland of ambiguous heritage. Travelling about the lands, Archibald learns new things and meets new people while sharing knowledge and trading items.
SCA History
I first learned of the SCA in 2015 at the Saskatoon Comic Expo when they had a booth and heavy demo. When I moved out to BC in 2022 I went looking for a community to join, and sought out the SCA by getting in touch with the Chatelaine of Danescombe. Starting off in the rapier practices out in the park in Westbank, I soon found myself at a demo in the park in June and the Scottish Festival demo in July of 2022, after which I attended my first SCA event; Tir Righ A&S and Bardic Championship 2023 in Danescombe. At this event I found my interest piqued by the displays put on by several folk, especially the nettle processing display by Sadhbh Bheag. I became a part of Clan Sinclair after that event and then had my first camping experience at Freeze Off (aptly named as I found out the wrong way). It was also at this event that I was fully nerd-sniped into the land of A&S by a class on nalbinding. From there I found my way into spinning and processing wool, alongside natural dyeing.
Other random bits I have learned: cold forging, leather working, pewter casting, painting, wire bending, and the list will continue to grow...
In 2024 I have slowly started into fighting heavy.
