Introduction

Christiana Crane, found the SCA in college when Endewearde was still a shire. After an extended pilgrimage into the "real" world, she returned in 2012. She now resides in Malagentia.

Persona

Christiana Crane was born July 28, 1315 in York. The daughter of a successful and well respected merchant, her family was mercifully spared from desperate hardship during the Great Famine. Many years later, her family undertook a pilgrimage to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela to give thanks for their many fortunes. Sadly, her family succumbed to the various hazards of the road, leaving her to seek sanctuary with Lord and Lady Fulton. As a member of their household, Christiana has had the pleasure of meeting many new people from all points of the globe, and experiencing their exotic ways.

More Information

• In the event that Christiana cannot make a Royal summons, she would be delighted to have Their Excellencies Endewearde deliver any messages from Their Majesties. Since it can be hard to surprise her (or keep her in one place for very long), it is perfectly acceptable to issue a summons before court to make sure she is there.
