Introduction

I am Lord Alexander Clarke, Esquire, and I reside in the Shire of Hadchester. I have been involved in the SCA since 2002 where I first started attending heavy list practices in Malagentia. After graduating college I moved back to my home town and was instrumental in the formation of what is now the Shire of Hadchester, serving as its first Senechal from 2008 to 2010.


Persona

The year is 1417, I have been afforded, by the Grace of Henry Fifth of that name, King of England, the stewardship of a small parcel of land abutting that of his other loyal servant, and my employer, Thomas Chaucer, here near the hamlet of Ewelme, South Oxfordshire. The land is hunted, harvested, and farmed enough to bring in a comfortable income for my family of four, and there is even extra to be spent from working as a Clerk for Chaucer. "Cogginswood" (as we call it) even boasts a small vineyard two which delights our neighbors.
