Introduction

Fighter, brewer, inter-kingdom master of hospitality, artist, forager. The Honorable Lord (an onórach tiarna) Ciarán d’alltherian Tostig Ua Baoighill, great defender of the East Kingdom went to his first war during Pennsic XXXIII at the age of XIX. Ciarán fell in love with the clash of fighting, the drums that rang in the night air, the stories and songs told and sang by magical bards around burning bright flames, the the variety of merchants, the magical Celts and Vikings that he has now known as his chosen family, among other camps and tribes, the clothing, accessories, the many brewers, and so much more. Ciarán has fought at every war since Pennsic XXXIII as a mercenary from the Aerie of Tir Thalor, which he became a member of in the field of battle during a thunderstorm that could have been brought down by the likes of Lugh, Taranis, Thor or Raijin. Ciarán’s encampment has been hired by Clanne Preachain since the year of MCMXCVII. Ciarán’s brother-in-law Elam (Captain of Tir Thalor) introduced him to sword fighting when he was XII years of age. Elam would talk of Pennsic War, glory and different stories and Ciarán would day dream about creating his own story on the battlefield. Ciarán is no longer a mercenary and has sworn fealty to his knight Jarl Ivan and now fights with the East Kingdom. Ciarán still camps and holds rank with the Aire of Tir Thalor.

Persona

Early Middle Ages 9th-10th century Norse-Gael. Ciarán’s homeland lies in the northwest of Tír Chonaill (County Donegal). Ciarán’s takes his surname from his mothers side of his mundane family, the O’Boyle Clanne of Donegal. For the most part though, Ciarán embraces all true “Celticness”, the amazing migratory transfer of culture throughout pre-historic/ancient Europe. Ciarán loves to combine early period Hallstatt and La Tene culture from everywhere the culture carried to into his persona. Because being a mixed bag, is just more fun.

Projects & Publications

Ciarán likes to research and cook historical early period Roman and Viking meals on a fire. He is an artist that would love to start drawing historical images with painting as his medium. He enjoys making Byzantine chain mail with bronze and steel…, one day maybe he will graduate to gold and silver. Many individuals throughout the known world have worn Ciarán’s necklaces. Ciarán has also been inspired to start putting hammer and chisel to rock. Ciarán is a forager who specializes in mushroom identification, as well as a mead and beer brewer who brews along side his Tir Thalor brother Djaygo Kochou. Most brews are non-historic concoctions. Ciarán also makes Atholl Bróse, a historical drink made from Scotch, honey and oats. Ciarán’s clothing is influenced from early period Gaul, 8th-10th century North Western Ireland (Northern Uí Niéll) and 6th-9th century Viking age (Specifically Norse-Gael). Ciarán collects amber and loves to bead amber necklaces, he also collects coins.. if you want to give him any of the two, he will kindly accept. Ciarán loves Skaldic and Eddic poetry and is hoping that one day he can recite some without looking at his notes. He is a percussionist and plays the Middle Eastern Dumbek, Celtic Bodhrán, a Viking Frame Drum and of course, Goat Toes, among whatever else he might get his hands on. Ciarán also loves to play historical games like Hunker Hausen, Bocce ball and any other games in his reach. Ciarán would love to play you for your coins, amber, furs or anything else.. even for fun.
