SCA History

Lorette had been associating with people in the SCA since her early twenties, but was never formally introduced into the SCA until September 12, 2016 at a cooking guild potluck in Montengarde. Her first event was Samhain on November 5, 2016.

She has been passionate about trying all the things, with arts and sciences and volunteering her time being her favourite activities. She has done all manner of combat, including combat archery, armored combat, and rapier. Rapier and archery are her martial activities of choice, though her passion for research tends to take most of her time. Her great love is all things coffee and fibre arts.

Lorette is protege to Vicountess AElflaeda FitzAlain of House Blackcloak. Lorette is apprenticed to Caterina di Alessandro di Guglielmo Franceschi of House Fine Lames.

Moving has taken her through several kingdoms, finding her way from Avacal to Northshield, and presently in Ealdormere.
