SCA Index
of Ivegard Sask

Once upon a time at a demo in a far away Kingdom, a Viking Lady introduced her very young niece to the pageantry and fun that is the SCA. That little girl grew up to be me.

Currently, I play in the Kingdom of Artemesia, in the illustrious Barrony of Arn Hold. I have held office and participated in competitions and organized events. One thing the SCA has instilled in me like no other life experience has, is that if you want to try something, you should just go for it. Recently, I began the great journey of apprenticeship with Countess Brynhildr Kormaksdottir, who is an amazingly knowledgeable lady, and a kind and patient Mistress.
