== Introduction ==

My name is Marcus Octavius Argentarius Leo; call me Marcus. My Alternate Persona is [[Thory Vedardottir]].

I joined the Society for Creative Anachronisms in ''anno societatis'' 47, and became a Herald at Pennsic 42. I'm also a novice Heavy List Fighter. (I'm a slow learner when I'm not dealing with books.)

I have been assigned female, but I am genderqueer. The pronouns I prefer are they, them, and theirs. (Please refer to me with these pronouns instead of she, her, and hers.) The Society is working on creating titles for people who do not feel that they are male or female. I have been Awarded Arms, so I ask to be addressed as Nobilis Marcus instead of Lord Marcus.

I have recently relocated to the Midrealm from the East Kingdom Barony of Carolingia.

If someone is making me a scroll, I would love to have something with cat footprints. And cats in general.

== Name and Heraldry ==

The Roman Republic is my second-favorite time period (after the Viking Age). I wanted a name that reflected my Silver Ounce heraldry. Marcus is one of my favorite male names, and 'Argentarius Leo' means Silver Lion. (I studied Latin in High School.)(Thank you, Gargoyles!) Octavius is a hat-tip to Emperor Augustus' birth name, and also a nod to [http://www.jim-butcher.com/books/alera Jim Butcher's] Codex Alera novels.
