Baroness Alanna is protege to Mistress [[Eleanor fitzPatrick]] and is a member of [[Equus Celox]]Her interests include equestrian, making garb, embroidery, thrown weapons, archery, helping where needed and learning new things.  She is currently the keeper of Carolingian Gold Key, the loaner garb that people can borrow from the barony, and hosts newcomer night.  She is also current Deputy Kingdom Equestrian Officer, and on the Consort's Guard for the reign of Tindal and Alberic.
Preferred title: None, but Dame if you really want to use oneDefinitely not Mistress.


She is also a marshal for thrown weapons or equestrian.
Alanna got started in the SCA in the [[Hartshorn-dale|Shire of Hartshorn-dale]], creating an unofficial college branch called College of the Sleeping Bear that she was Seneschal of for the 4 years of being there. She recruited others for the group who are consistently participating to this day, including Mistress [[Elysabeth Underhill]], THL [[Jacqueline Cross]], Lady Adriana Michaels (Atlantia), and Lord Matthew of Dun Carraig (Atlantia).


[[Category:Barony_of_Carolingia]]
After Hartshorn-dale she has lived in [[Caer Adamant]], [[Quintavia]], [[Carolingia]], and now is back in [[Quintavia]].  She has no specific time period or persona, and much like her location in the current middle ages, bounces around between cultures, time periods, and genders for garb.  She is happy to use female titles regardless of the gender of garb being worn.
[[Category:Thrown_Weapons]]
 
[[Category:Equestrian]]
Alanna's interests include equestrian, making garb, embroidery, thrown weapons, archery, helping where needed and learning new things.  She is a completionist so has a competency ranking for all categories of the Athena's thimble embroidery guild.  She is current Deputy Kingdom Exchequer - Warrants and Signatories.  She  lives in Quintavia, but also claims allegiance to [[Carolingia]] and [[Barony Beyond the Mountain]], regularly attending practices with both groups.
 
Alanna lives in stealth mode.  She keeps finding people who had no idea what she did at Pennsic, so besides archery and thrown weapons champs teams, a list: set up the archery range, helped at family point, ran a thrown weapons tournament, learned a new weaving technique, marshaled, helped baronial break down, did about 1000 fetch quests for people, fenced (first time at war!), took care of exchequer business... so basically a pretty quiet war actually!
 
Other random things Alanna is super proud of:
*Currently ranked 5th on the East Kingdom thrown weapons royal round scores (combined total of axe, knife, spear)
*Ran the equestrian course at EK 50 year event, including engineering the swinging lollipop targets of doom
*Brought TWIC, the [http://scores-sca.org/twic Thrown Weapons Interkingdom Challenge], to the East in 2019.  Like the [http://scores-sca.org/ikac Interkingdom Archery Challenge] (IKAC), it is a way for every kingdom to compare scores in a set format determined by the challenge designer.  It's a bit different than our [[Thrown Weapons Royal Round|Royal Rounds]], with an additional middle distance for each weapon type, and resets every calendar year.  While the new Standard Royal Round started in 2022, spearheaded by [[Matteo Genovese]], allows comparison between kingdoms if you go look at their scores, TWIC automatically sorts scores from all participating kingdoms, making a nice table of bragging rights!
*Known associate of a known associate ([[Bastien]]) of the [[Handsome Boys]]

Introduction

Pronouns: She/they

Preferred title: None, but Dame if you really want to use one. Definitely not Mistress.

Alanna got started in the SCA in the Shire of Hartshorn-dale, creating an unofficial college branch called College of the Sleeping Bear that she was Seneschal of for the 4 years of being there. She recruited others for the group who are consistently participating to this day, including Mistress Elysabeth Underhill, THL Jacqueline Cross, Lady Adriana Michaels (Atlantia), and Lord Matthew of Dun Carraig (Atlantia).

After Hartshorn-dale she has lived in Caer Adamant, Quintavia, Carolingia, and now is back in Quintavia. She has no specific time period or persona, and much like her location in the current middle ages, bounces around between cultures, time periods, and genders for garb. She is happy to use female titles regardless of the gender of garb being worn.

Alanna's interests include equestrian, making garb, embroidery, thrown weapons, archery, helping where needed and learning new things. She is a completionist so has a competency ranking for all categories of the Athena's thimble embroidery guild. She is current Deputy Kingdom Exchequer - Warrants and Signatories. She lives in Quintavia, but also claims allegiance to Carolingia and Barony Beyond the Mountain, regularly attending practices with both groups.

Alanna lives in stealth mode. She keeps finding people who had no idea what she did at Pennsic, so besides archery and thrown weapons champs teams, a list: set up the archery range, helped at family point, ran a thrown weapons tournament, learned a new weaving technique, marshaled, helped baronial break down, did about 1000 fetch quests for people, fenced (first time at war!), took care of exchequer business... so basically a pretty quiet war actually!

Other random things Alanna is super proud of:

  • Currently ranked 5th on the East Kingdom thrown weapons royal round scores (combined total of axe, knife, spear)
  • Ran the equestrian course at EK 50 year event, including engineering the swinging lollipop targets of doom
  • Brought TWIC, the Thrown Weapons Interkingdom Challenge, to the East in 2019.
