Introduction

Pronouns: She/they

Baroness 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.

Alanna is protege to Mistress Eleanor fitzPatrick. Her 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 Central Region Deputy Exchequer, and on the Royal Guard for the reign of Indrakshi. 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 thrown weapons range, taught classes at family point and thrown weapons, worked multiple shifts at troll, finished archery marshal authorization, multiple shifts marshaling thrown weapons, set up east kingdom royal, was on royal guard... and camped with Enchanted Ground!
