== Persona ==

I have two personae; both of which are based in the Burgundy region of continental Europe.  <br/>
During the 100 Years War, my persona lived in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duchy_of_Burgundy Duchy of Bugundy]<br>
<br />
My primary persona is 14th century (1340's).  Having survived the Great Plague, I became a soldier to the Crown to earn a living. <br /><br />
My other persona is of an early 12th century (1105) Crusader who became disillusioned by the politics of the Church.  After returning to western Europe, I became a member of the army for Cynnabar. <br /><br />
I often carry the heraldry of my wife onto the field.  Her heraldry is: Per pale vert and argent all semy-de-lys counterchanged.<br />

Squired to Sir [[Alaric le Fevre]]<br /><br />
Member of Queen's Guard for Queen [[Arabella Silvermane|Arabella]] III (2015)<br />


== Squiring ==

NOTE***  This is a work in progress.... <br>
<br>
Sir [[Alaric le Fevre|Alaric]] and I agreed to a knight/squire relationship in 2009.  The actual belting and swearing of fealty happened at Pennsic War 38, 2009.<br>

We began our discussion at a Tournament of Chivalry held in the Barony of Flaming Gryphon, I believe in 2007.  The following January 2008, we finalized the last details at Regular Event in the Cleftlands wherein I became his man-at-arms. This was to last a year and a day.<br>
<br>
It is funny how things go sometimes.  When the next year came around, my wife and I were in attendance at Regular Event 2009 (a year and a day, really!) where Sir Alaric and I were going to discuss the next step.  It was feast time, and we were all getting ready to sit at our table, when His Majesty [[Ullr Amaranthson]] placed His hand on my shoulder and asked my lady and I to join Them at the head table. (You never say "No" to Their Majesties at a request like this.)  Well,  Sir Alaric and I did not get a chance to have that necessary conversation.  So more time passed before we could make any plans.<br><br>
Now comes Pennsic War 38 (2009).  Sir Alaric asked me to meet him at Midrealm Royal encampment.  There he would set me on the quest to gain my squire's belt.<br>
