Introduction
Title Name. SCA Biography. Selected Awards (the Wiki is not the place to do a full awards list).
Persona
Yeh-Liu Targai, a brilliant statesman from Kara Khitai during the Liao Dynasty, has become the Grand Vizir to Ghengis Khan in a desperate effort to preserve his own people's lives and culture under the rule of the Mongol Khanate. He has employed his skills as a a most adroit and skilled swordsman, an archer, a martial artist and a diplomat, and for these reasons has gained the respect and trust of the Khan. As such, Kara Khitai (Black Cathay), where his generally peaceful people have settled after their defeat by both the Jurchens and the Mongols, has prospered as the westernmost trade center on the Silk Road.
Note: the Asian tradition is that the surname is written first. So Targai is his given name and Yeh-Liu is his surname.
Offices & Positions
Lord Targai served as Fencing Champion of Ostgardr too many times to list. He also served as Marshal of Fence upon occasion and when he could be talked into "having a job". His gifts to the fencing world of the East earned him the Order of the Silver Rapier (Posthumous), East Kingdom, 12/13/2020 A member of the Society almost since it's inception who delighted in taking on holders of the Golden Rapier on the field and walking away with them scratching their heads and saying "who WAS that guy?!?", it can safely be said that for the entirety of his association with the SCA, he was without peer. ;)
However he did hold the rank of Knight in both the MSR/Acre and the live steel group, Historic Arms. He is seen here at the Cloisters / Fort Tryon Park Renaissance Faire in a live steel bout with his Chinese "terra cotta soldier" armor.
