Introduction

Syrine discovered the SCA in 2014 through friends, at the Duché de Bicolline where would be held, few months later, the new version of the Beltaines, in Tir Mara. In her mundane life, she has a Bachelor in Business Administration at Université Laval. She has also studied fiber arts in college, for three years. Finally, she's a professional oriental dancer (often referenced to bellydancer).

She has found, in the SCA, a way to manage events, share knowledge, teach techniques, perform and, most of all, learn.

She is also a heavy fighter since 2016

Persona

Furûsiyya! Asabiyya!

These are the words you hear when Al-Karakal's soldiers are on their way to war.

Syrine, as every other fighter of Al-Karakal, is a mamluk, a slave soldier. Forever in the service of the king, their conquests brought them great power and wealth.
