Kalara with Veil

Kalara of Lochmere

Introduction

I joined the SCA around 2008 in the Kingdom of Atlantia as one of the rare-as-unicorns female heavy fighters. I could not brew, or sew, or cook but I could not turn down an invitation to come out and try to learn anything, either. My persona is that of a Slavic merchant in northern Italy in the 15th century or so. I became a bard, and a teacher, and though my heart is still with the heavy fighters my knees protest. Today I am a thorn in the side of evildoers.

Heraldry

Vert, a chalice Or and in chief a fish haurient embowed argent. (A fish out of water.)

A&S Philosophy

Others may do as they please, but I would prefer to make something that is a treasure rather than something commonplace.

Service Philosophy

Many hands make for light work.

    Miscellaneous Doings

    Began bardic circle in Highland Foorde circa 2010. First meetings were in a museum called Schifferstadt. Bardic included a very fine wassail for Yule. This bardic was later hosted by an underground secret nerd club and got quite large. It may have split by 2020.

    Sponsored several bardic challenges.

    Played an inter-baronial prank at Highland Foorde's Feast and Foolishness that involved stealing the ancient Log of Ponte Alto and dressing it in landsknecht garb to honor Ponte Alto's Baron and Baroness at the time. You had to be there.

    Makes plaster-decorated boxes.

    Forestry Guild

    Briefly Youth Officer in Lochmere.

    Washer of Dishes with Milord Raven and other noble souls at Revenge of the Stitch and Harvest Wars.

    Attended Coronation in Dun Carraig.
