== Personas ==
*''Pronouns: she/her/hers''
*Barones Mari Clock van Hoorne lives in the Amsterdam area of Netherlands, around the year 1575 during the Dutch Revolt.
*Baronessa [[Marietta da Firenze]] is from Florence, Italy but living in Amsterdam around 1375.

*Baron Godric Gameday ''(pending registration)'' owns and runs the Gameday Taverne, in Dover, on the coast of England, about the year 1325.

== At Events ==
Sometimes at events you may find Mari working at Troll. She likes being a Troll. She also enjoys list running if there is a tournament happening, and loves serving feasts. 
Having a strong love of games, be it card games, board games, or lawn games, Mari has created the "Household" [[Gameday Taverne]]. The general purpose of Gameday Taverne is to (hopefully) schedule and arrange Servers for feasts at local events... and of course, play games!

These days you can sometimes find Mari helping out in the kitchen because her son [[Rudolf Siege|Siege]] seems to enjoy them, and it is important to support the children in their endeavors. While in the kitchen, personal preference is for washing dishes over doing anything with the food. 

Mari camps with Folkvang at Pennsic, found in block N21 near the North Gate.
