History in the SCA:
Timeline:
- When started in SCA: I first learned about the SCA's existence at the April 2022 Great Plains Renaissance Festival. Most people are frightened of me in my plague doctor garb and want to stay away, but the fine Vatavian people did not; they wanted to talk to me! I thought this would be a wonderful new social group and hobby to have post-plague, after hiding away from disease for so long.
- Significant events since then (competitions, championships, tourneys, first event, etc.)
- First Baronial Event: Champions, August 14, 2022
- First Kingdom Event: Midwinter Knights Dream, December 17, 2022. Award of Arms presented by Duncan Bruce of Logan & Ylva Jonsdottir.
