====== Lassarfhina Kynsayll ====== ===== Persona ===== Lassarfhina's (they/she) roots began roughly "post-Norman invasion of Ireland." Or, if you prefer the common era context: in the earliest of 'aughts, at Ealdormere War Practice. In the 25 years (or so) that have followed they have traversed many regions and timelines of interest, marked by a refusal to chose a "One True Century." They were made a peer in Ealdormere in the year of our Society AS LIX for Diverse Arts, as a Laurel in the [[history:lineages:line_of_corwyn_and_domhnail|lineage of Corwyn and Domhnaill]]. When using a title, they use Ollamh (pronounced Olive.) ===== Whereabouts ===== Lassarfhina currently resides in the Shire of [[branches:shire:trinovantia_nova|Trinovatia Nova]] (London) with their family Baron Rhisiart ap Meredudd, Panda Usagi, and Kyla (who visits the Known World periodically). Prior to the great plague, they hailed from the Barony of [[branches:barony:septentria|Septentria]] (in Toronto). ===== Heraldry ===== Though it has not yet passed the requisite leaps, they informally use: Per chevron wavy argent and azure, three ermine spots one-and-two sable and a salmon embowed fesswise contourney argent. ===== Offices and Appointments ===== ==== Current Office(s) ==== * {{activities:service:offices:chatelaine-symbol.png?30|}} [[activities:service:offices:Chatelaine|Chatelaine]] – Shire of [[branches:shire:trinovantia_nova|Trinovatia Nova]] ==== Past Offices ==== * {{activities:service:offices:seneschal-symbol.png?30|}} [[activities:service:offices:seneschal|Seneschal]] - Shire of [[branches:shire:trinovantia_nova|Trinovatia Nova]] * {{activities:service:offices:seneschal-symbol.png?30|}} [[activities:service:offices:seneschal|Seneschal]] - Canton of [[branches:canton:skeldergate|Skeldergate]] * {{activities:service:offices:maos-symbol.png?30|}} [[activities:service:offices:minister_of_arts_sciences|Minister of Arts and Science]] - Shire of [[branches:shire:trinovantia_nova|Trinovatia Nova]] * [[groups:guilds_and_orders:the_college_of_heralds|Privy Seal]] - Kingdom of [[branches:kingdom:ealdormere| Ealdormere]] * [[activities:service:offices:signet|Baronial Signet]] - Barony of [[branches:barony:septentria|Septentria]] ===== SCA History ===== Due to a marked fondness for brining people together in hospitality, frivolity and reverence, plus a certain skill in ops and logistics, they rather enjoy running events. From a Septentrian Baronial investiture, to multiple 12th Night events, a Kingdom A&S and participating on teams doing everything from bartending to sausage making, labouring as kitchen lackey or liaison, gilding honey cakes or Trilliums, they generally tend to the smooth operations of a good time for all (With a side of prioritizing a Quiet Room!!). They are currently working with Baroness [[people:brigit_larkin | Brigit Larkin]] to update the Event Steward's handbook with a priority to integrate accessibility guidelines. ===== Interests ===== Lassarfhina is an artisan, with diverse interests. Most especially in pigments, bone, clay and glass. They are fascinated by raw materials and medieval craftsmanship. Once upon a time, they also were rumoured to engage in the throwing of knives and axes. ===== Awards ===== ===Peerages and Court Barony === * [[awards:order_of_the_laurel|Order of the Laurel]] for Divers Arts, April 19th, 2025 * [[awards:court_barony|Court Barony]], September 28th, 2024 ===Grant Level=== * [[awards:order_of_the_wain|Order of the Wain]], December 6th, 2025 * [[awards:order_of_the_crucible|Order of the Crucible]], July 27th, 2007 ===Award of Arms Level=== * [[awards:award_of_the_maiden_s_heart|Award of the Maiden's Heart]], May 27th, 2006 * [[awards:award_of_orion|Award of Orion]], July 2th, 2005 * [[awards:award_of_arms|Award of Arms]], January 25th, 2004 ===Non-Precedence=== * [[awards:scroll_of_honour|Scroll of Honour]] for Contributions to awards during the reign, August 1th, 2013 * [[awards:scroll_of_honour|Scroll of Honour]] for Scribe and illuminator responsible for the Scroll, July 1th, 2007 * [[awards:scroll_of_honour|Scroll of Honour]] for Scribal duties above and beyond (while in labour), September 18th, 2004 ===== Other Activities and Affiliations ===== They belong to [[groups:households:Barrington House]], and were apprenticed to [[history:lineages:line_of_corwyn_and_domhnail|Corwyn and Domhnaill]]. They grew from a group of three, carving bone and horn weekly, in the early 2000's, to a large dynamic group (of 20+ people) with an extraordinary range of skills, still gathering weekly over potluck feasts. They rejoin as often as they are able... though, missing the creative connection time dearly, they also started their own craft night in London. They now host a camping group called Imbirwood Hearth -- which you may occasionally see adjacent to Harpy Hall under the moniker "Hearth and Hall." They also have the honour of tending to 3 incredible students (Lord Edric Crowe, Lord [[people:leo_lenoncourt|Leo de Lenoncourt]], and Exallixis Hekatiou.) ===== Contact Information ===== Lassarfhina can be reached via [[Lassarfhina.SCA@gmail.com|email]]. ===== External Links ===== //Add a link to your blog or other external website.// [{{media:heraldry:branch_heraldry:ealdormere_wolfium_badge.png?200|You can use the populace badge if you do not have heraldry.}}] /* PLEASE DO NOT EDIT BELOW THIS POINT - TAGS FOR AUTO-GENERATED LISTS */ {{tag>people:people_by_location:trinovantia_nova people:order_of_the_laurel people:people_by_office:chatelaine}}
