Introduction

Maitresse Marcele de Montsegur was inducted into the Order of the Laurel in January 2004. She is also a companion of the Order of the Maunche and has a number of Seamstress-to-the-Crown acknowledgments. Her passion for the arts centers around 14thc material culture, in particular the clothing, accessories, and martial soft kit worn by Western Europeans of that time. She occasionally gets enthused for 15thc stuff too. Marcele's first two apprentices have been elevated to the Order of the Laurel: Angharad Rhos ferch Rhain and Angus Kerr. She currently has a teacher/student relationship with Lady Efa Pengrych of the Barony of Bhakail.

Persona

Marcele descends from noble French carpetbaggers who moved into Occitania from France after its native culture and heretical spirituality were squashed by the 2nd and 3rd sons of the nervous French nobility. Though many generations removed from that dark history of the early-to-mid 13th century, she remains aware of its perfidy. She knows better than to speak of it to her father, uncles, or brothers, however.
