Introduction

Greetings. I am Temair ingen Muiredaich, Maistreas. My first brush with historical reenactment was with Markland in the early 1980s while in college. While I attended the Sterling Forest Ren Fair for many years, I did not find the SCA until 1990. I am located in the Barony of Dragonship Haven (mundanely southwestern CT) and enjoy various period arts & crafts. At various times I have participated in the Worshipful Company of Stationers, the Metalsmith's Guild and the Keepers of Athena's Thimble. I achieved the rank of Journeyman after paneling for the Keepers of Athena's Thimble at Pennsic 49 (2022).

Persona

I was born in Hallein by the Salzwelten Hallstatt approximately 200BC. My clan runs this salt mine as well as Salzwelten Salzberg, and the Salwelten Altaussee (which produces rock salt). We currently trade with the Romans for cloth, pottery and wine but it is an uneasy truce at best.

In Case of Court

I really do not like surprises. If you want me to enjoy the moment, give me a hint that I will be called into court. I don't have to know the reason, just that I will be called so that I can be calm and enjoy the moment. If I ever receive another peerage, I'd prefer to "just do it" right then and there or have a writ.

Please make sure to contact Aurora of Dragonship Haven.
