MISTRESS SANCHA LESTRANGE

  • Pronunciation guide: sawn'-chuh less-trawnj'
  • Alternate/former names: Saerlaith l'Estrangere
  • Use names: 'Hell's Snails!', or 'Is there a way around this dress, or do I need an oxcart and a winch?' or 'Hey, free food!' (I always answer to that one...)

Persona:

  • 15th century Frenchwoman living lavishly beyond my means until my husband's inheritance runs out.
  • <;D (That's an emoticon of me in a steeple hennin - world's smallest selfie!)
  • I sew clothing and do embroidery, calligraphy and illumination, ceramics, metalsmithing and casting, and dumpster diving when I think nobody is watching. I play the recorder (poorly), dance (occasionally), and I am not to be trusted in the kitchen!

Rat out a Friend

From Melanie de la Tour: I sent a wooden chest home with Sancha so that she could fix a broken hinge, and it came back with my arms painted on the front and both ends. Sancha has mad skills!
