Introduction

Aoife Honeybourne went to her first event at the age of six. Her father was heavily involved in the Society, hosting archery and heavy combat practice in the Shire of Heronter, Aethelmearc. She fell out of touch with the SCA, but rediscovered it in her early teens, immersing herself bardic circles and thrown weapons. As an adult, she switched her focus to the arts and sciences. She enjoys researching and cooking period food, historical brewing, icon painting, and some fiber arts, but her primary focus is beekeeping, and all things related. She hopes to contribute her research on the topic to the knowledge base of the society.

Persona

Usually Norse, sometimes Saxon, and woefully confused the rest of the time. She expects to firm up a better persona and wardrobe in the coming months...

Erstwhile member of the enthusiastic yet short-lived House Three Sheets.
