Introduction
Lady Cynthia resides in the Barony of Stierbach, and has also been an active resident of the Kingdoms of the West (Shire of Montagne du Roi/Barony of Darkwood, and Principality of the Mists) and of Artemisia (Barony of Arn Hold). She is a musician who plays lute and all voices of recorder, as well as guitar, percussion, and also sings. She also loves calligraphy and illumination, costuming, and book-making.
Although children and other life-happenings have interfered with her full participation for various stretches of time, she loves being in community with like-minded lovers of history, music, art, and fellowship in the SCA.
Persona
Cynthia is an English lady of the early sixteenth century, but when weather demands it, she can also be seen in Roman clothing, or even 14th-Century garb.
