HEY! Snaebjorn! Were you at Frost Dragon this year????????

Could you possibly mean Ice Dragon in the Barony of the Rhydderich Hael in the kingdom of Aethelmearc?

If you do mean Ice Dragon then yes I was there this past year. I won the Novice Category for woodworking with a red and yellow round shield. I'll be there this year as well.  

[BladeDeSoul]

Nope thats something I thought about after I posted it. I was at the Barony of Naevehjem Frost Dragon Tournament here in Caid. Soooo did you guys have a dragon? lol  

[Snaebjorn]

What do you mean by have a dragon? *laughs* Not a term we use I don't think.  

[BladeDeSoul]

No we had a dragon./.....Built out of a huge wagon, and it had huge co2 tanks so it actually blew out frost. And at the end of the day you can try to kill it, using boffer weapons...>.< I have a pic if you want it.

Aww thanks ... I actually couldn't afford it either! rofl one letter was a christmas gift from my friend, and the others sweatdrop well ... lets not go into how much money I owe a certain family member! rofl They know they'll get it back though! rofl heart heart

And when you get your persona all together and clothed - take a picture for me!! biggrin I love japanese culture! although that addiction came about through anime sweatdrop Heh .. heh ... anyways... stare

Hehe, mine started with anime, I'm such an Otaku ^_^ but I love that I can bring that over to the SCA...well not the anime thing so much but the Japanese culture stuff LOL rofl sweatdrop

And I totaly will, mines not going to be kimonos so much as priestessy type outfits(like kikyou's from inuyasha except different colors) but I will probably have one kimono for awards ceremonies where theres pointies present ^_^

You do realize that Inuyasha is set during the Kamakura period and the only colors allowed for such an outfit was the red hakama with white kosode correct?

no I didn't know that but I have other SCAdian friends who are samurai that wear dark blue hakama and one of them wears a green leafishy print kosode. But whatev, all I really know about my persona right now is her name I don't know what time period I'm going to be from or anything really lol.

With Samurai there's a lot of time to choose from. There were proto-samurai recognizable from the sixth century, and the educated, cultured warriors of the Bushido code from the 11th century to the late 19th.

I so know that one... my first event I was still homeless but someone gave me feast gear as a newbie present... So in my duffle bag my garb, tent, and feast gear took up more space than my mundane life stuff....

Most likely I'll end up making 1 set of garb in my houses colors (black/green/white) and one set in lighter colors/fabrics so I don't die in the mid summer heat for the July event. And probably a red/white one just cuz(that way I could go to cosplays at cons easy too!)

hehehe well, I figure I'm lucky to have found such an awesome House, not to mention that the person who introduced me to the Drakkenguard was the leader himself *evil laugh*

And no, everyone, I didn't intentionally seek out Elexi it was completely an accident. In fact Elexi almost had to die to finally FREAKIN' meet me.  

[Chibbi_Satan]

It is true...I almost died the night before I meet Dema. You see, I have a mint allergy, and had drank girlscout cookies at my friend Loki's encampment....to which I fell over and went into siezures and began to have cardiac arrest.
It sucks....
The next morning I was in her encampment, speaking with her current captain at the time, and she began to hug me and give me back messages. It was a nice meeting.
To say the least, we where talking all night.

Not to mention that later we found out I'd been friends with your sister for 3 years and had been at at least 2-3 of the same events as you LOL!!

True true...all very true. mrgreen

You know you're the SCA when...

~You can't take your friends...because there's no more room in the car.
~You babble excitedly about the upcoming event and all your friends either nod or just tune you out.
~ You absently refer to pop up shade as a pavilion, or rainshade (An Tir only)  

[Regular Polyhedra]

You know you're in the SCA when...
...You always yell "Hold!" instead of "Stop!"
...You see a sign for 'fencing' and wonder how much their épées cost.
...You're disappointed when you find out the History channel show "Fields of Armor" is about tanks.
...None of your mundane friends will watch period movies with you anymore because you're constantly critiquing the garb.
...You refer to porta-potties as 'biffies.'
...When trying to get the attention of a large group of people you yell, "My Lords and Ladies, pray attend!"
...You're the only person in your English class who can properly speak Shakespearian English, other than the teacher. (and in some cases, including the teacher!)
...You can fix anything with duct tape.
...You can put up any tent ever made in the dark, in the pouring rain, and with no directions!
...All of your mundane friends ask for your help with their sewing projects.
...You've seen a drunk man in a kilt searching around while baaing like a sheep.
...You don't find that sight unusual.
...You prefix stories with, "No s**t, there I was..."


I bet some of these have been done, but oh well.
