Anejiro no Tamiko
Summary
Anejiro no Tamiko, also known as Tami or Miko for short, has participated in the SCA since about 2001 C.E. Though her time in the SCA has been sporadic, most of her early years were spent camping alongside the House of Hormones in the Barony of Three Mountains. While her name has changed a couple of times over the past few years, she has always played a Japanese persona.
In 2004 C.E., Tamiko began her 5 year pilgrimage to the Barony of Adiantum in search of new light. Three years later, Anejiro no Tamiko along with Taðkr ormstunga, Senen meśou-nešed, & Toomachi no Shichiro formed a new house known as House Jormungandr. 2008 C.E. marks her brief return to the Barony of Three Mountains, moving still further north in summer of 2009 C.E. to the Barony of Madrone.
