And then the Isolation happened.

I'm trying to remember what I've done service-wise since the new year.


  • I know I finished calligraphy on another backlog scroll.
  • I helped herald in court at Twelfth Night.
  • I've finished a thing for a friend's elevation, but as that hasn't happened yet, I'm not disclosing details on that.
  • I've held my "Absolute beginner's guide to submitting heraldry" twice online. Once on facebook live, which isn't good for seeing if anybody has questions but more people were watching, and once on Google Meets which worked a lot better but had fewer people. The facebook live I had committed to doing before the webministry started pushing for people to use the Meets. So, experimentation in streaming ways happened. Facebook live is good for broadcasting with minimal interaction with viewers since there's such a delay between what you say and what viewers see. Zoom is good for having multiple people talk at the same time or roundtable discussions. Google Meets is good for a lecture class.
  • I recorded a short video of my dancing in armor to the Electric Slide to amuse my fellow SCAdians. And I most recently recorded videos to contribute to group video projects of "Eye of the Tyger" and "Glow Up".
  • Plus I've been continuing my monthly duties as Mosaic Herald, and helping out with proofreading things for Blue Tyger.


I think that's all for now! Because I suddenly remembered I have this blog to keep record of the things I do.

Barony, Kingdom, Household

I've been working on stuff!

For the Barony:
I am still working on getting the herald title changed from Seastar to drake. Tiny nibbles getting closer to being done.

For the Kingdom:
Touching base with Mathghamhain on a regular basis so the two of us can prod Ozurr into getting a name and device registered. Ozurr said he'd think about his options and let me know by this weekend. I'll poke him again tomorrow, I think he's at an event today.

For my household:
I bought 4 tablecloths and plan on cutting them up and reassembling them into our household badge. It should work well as long as I can get the skulls bonded on correctly. I have been having trouble with the fusible webbing on the past 2 projects, but I got it to work on one. So, fingers crossed! But it should look nice, like a table runner. If I do it right I should be able to get 3 tablecloths out of the batch.

Oh! I almost forgot. Also for the barony:
I finally managed to coordinate getting leaf springs from Titus to Torfi, so now he can start working on making a ballista. Once that's done in the spring, I would imagine, I can kidnap bribe discuss with a siege weapon marshal to come out to Long Island to authorize whoever wants.

Silver Wheel for Demetrio

I was notified that my protege was going to be receiving a Silver Wheel. When I was arranging which event he'd get it at, I sent a quick...
