Title Name. SCA Biography. Selected Awards (the Wiki is not the place to do a full awards list).
My name is Noble Alana O'Keeve, and I am currently a member of the populace of the Shire of Blak Rose. In the more than 20 years I've been in the SCA, I've found that I am most content when washing dishes, shifting tables for feast, or otherwise helping out.  
 
My most recent pathway to service has been in the martial arena, where I have been an Archery Marshal for 6+ years, and am also a Thrown Weapons Marshal. Beginning in the summer of 2015 I became the Western Region thrown weapons deputy.
 
In addition to running local practices and being the Marshal-in-Charge for events, I have also assisted in the training of archery and thrown Marshals. I have also taken an interest in heraldry and, along with Joscelin le esqurel, have helped out local people with their heraldic submissions. If you have any questions about thrown weapons, archery, or heraldry please feel free to contact me, and if I can't help you, I can find someone who can!
