Introduction
Lady Phaedra de Vere started playing in the SCA in the Shire of Ravenslake in the Middle Kingdom in 2006, then moved to Atlantia in 2011 and on to the East Kingdom in 2017.
She adores teaching historical fencing (specifically Fabris) and can often be found near the rapier list with the Carolingian Calivers and Handsome Boys. She also makes portrait-inspired jewelry for her Etsy shop, The Gilded Thistle, which occasionally makes appearances at events as a merchant. She has a difficult time sitting still without working on something, so she's often found with embroidery, sewing, or some other craft in her hands.

Persona
Phaedra de Vere's persona varies, mostly depending on whether she is fencing that day.
When not fighting, she is known for her elaborate portrayal of a Tang Dynasty (600-900 AD) Chinese lower-ranking court lady.
If it's a fighting or working day, she's most likely to be either 16th Century English (fencing garb), 15th Century English (cotehardies or a fancy Burgundian gown known as "Big and Purple"), or Imperial Roman (if it's especially hot).
