Introduction

Justin du Coeur (OL, OP, OKD, FF, OGS, ORS, FB, SSS, and other conversation starters) joined the SCA in 1983, and has been highly active ever since, mainly in and around the Barony of Carolingia.

He is a bit of a jack of all trades -- that is to say, an easily-distracted dilettante who likes to play with lots of toys. His long-stated (and likely impossible) goal is to become Adequate (or at least Mediocre) at all SCA activities. Along the way, he has actually gotten fairly good at a few, particularly Dance, Games and Cooking. While he has dabbled in most of the realm's martial activities, archery is the one he's halfway decent at. Somewhere along the line, he accidentally got into court heraldry.

He often prefers to play "stealth peer", suiting both his middle-class persona and preference for hanging around with the newer members of the Society.

Persona

Justin du Coeur lives in Poulet Gauche time -- that is, "400 years ago today". (Yes, this means I've technically drifted out of SCA period.) Having been raised around the nobility of Italy, he makes his living as an itinerant dancemaster for whatever nobility are paying for it at the moment. In his spare time, he hangs out in Le Poulet Gauche tavern in Calais, making pocket change off of soldiers who are drinking too much to gamble well.
