Introduction

I had known of the SCA for many, many years - since about high school. My first attempt to join was not successful as there seemed to be a lack of organization in my local group at the time. I kept on the fringes, attending random events through the years. Finally, at long last, I have found a place to play and have enjoyed becoming more involved, learning, teaching, and growing.

Persona

Roman naming conventions, being the opposite of our modern naming systemn makes Celera the personal name, used by family and friends. Gnaea is the family name.
