Sabine de Kerbriant (formerly Sabine Kerbriant de Lanvaux) first found the SCA in 1993, accidentally drawn in by the siren call of a friend saying "Hey, someone's dragging me to this weird dance practice thing and I want you to come too!" Her primary interests are music, poetry and literature, manuscripts and early printed books, commedia dell'arte, dance, and archery, but she can easily be distracted by any interesting medieval or Renaissance art form, especially the tasty ones; she is particularly fond of all things French. Sabine has served as a baronial officer of one sort or another since 1995 (including a five-year tenure as Baroness of [[Bhakail]]), has been director of the Bhakaili Branslers since 2007, and enjoys calling herself patroness of the commedia troupe I Zanni Illuminati. In the past she dabbled in a variety of classic SCAdian activities including heavy weapons fighting, fencing, and embroidery, and learned not to mess with anything involving sharp points and/or long strings; current favored musical instruments include rauschpfeife, crumhorn, recorder, and transverse flute. Sabine was inducted into the Order of the Laurel by King Edward III and Queen Thyra II at 12th Night in Carillion on January 17, 2015.
Pronouns: She/her
 
Preferred title: Baroness (or Baronne if you're feeling French!)

Persona-wise, Sabine comes from minor Breton nobility somewhere vaguely circa 1300. She was fostered in a Parisian branch of the family, eventually becoming a lady-in-waiting to Dorren of Ashwell, an English baroness on pilgrimage. She spent some time receiving musical tutelage from first Maitresse Linette de Gallardon and then Magistra Rufina Cambrensis; more recent escapades are entirely her own fault and should not be blamed on any reputable musicians.

Introduction

Pronouns: She/her

Preferred title: Baroness (or Baronne if you're feeling French!)

Sabine de Kerbriant (formerly Sabine Kerbriant de Lanvaux) first found the SCA in 1993, accidentally drawn in by the siren call of a friend saying "Hey, someone's dragging me to this weird dance practice thing and I want you to come too!" At the start of her SCAdian career she dabbled in a number of the classic activities, including heavy weapons fighting, fencing, and embroidery, and quickly learned not to mess with anything involving sharp points and/or long strings. Her primary interests are music (current favored instruments include gemshorn, rauschpfeife, crumhorn, recorder, and transverse flute), poetry and literature, manuscripts and early printed books, commedia dell'arte, dance, and archery, but she can easily be distracted by any interesting medieval or Renaissance art form -- especially the tasty ones. She is particularly fond of all things French. Sabine has held a variety of baronial offices (including a five-year tenure as Baroness of Bhakail), has been director of the Bhakaili Branslers since 2007, and enjoys calling herself patroness of the commedia troupe I Zanni Illuminati. King Edward III and Queen Thyra II inducted her into the Order of the Laurel at 12th Night in Carillion on January 17, 2015, and Queen Anna III and Princess Honig named her Queen's Bard at the East Kingdom Bardic Championship in Concordia of the Snows on February 11, 2017.

Persona-wise, Sabine comes from minor Breton nobility somewhere vaguely circa 1300.

She spent some time receiving musical tutelage from first Maitresse Linette de Gallardon and then Magistra Rufina Cambrensis; more recent escapades are entirely her own fault and should not be blamed on any reputable musicians.

Sabine is married to Baron Nissim Aven Darmon, called Darmon; their daughter Isabel, known as "El," held the title Marquesa of Black Icorndall from 2008-2013. Together with Margreþa La Fauvelle, once her first apprentice and now a sister Laurel, she performs as part of "Rondelay Music". Lady Solveig Bjarnardottir is her apprentice, Juliana Bird (a.k.a. Bird the Bard) a student, and Baroness Suba al-Hadid a former student.
