Introduction
Magister Mat Wyck, a Fencer and Forester, at home in woods, on the water or in seedy taverns. Formerly known as Alexander Ramsay, a proud son of Endewearde, circa 1990-94. Returned to the always-interesting embrace of the SCA in late 2016 and immediately fell in with the problem children of Malagentia. Drink of choice - G&T. House of choice - Fulton, of course.
Persona
Mat Wyck was the middle son of a late 1500s minor noble in coastal England who benefited from instruction in the art of the rapier and travelled extensively as a supercargo on his father's merchant ships. He returned home to help his family keep their lands safe from increasingly bold brigands and poachers. Along the way he joined up with the fine folks of House Fulton, and is a proud member of that household.

In Case of Court
I prefer surprises. Ethereal Court is A-OK by me. Broadly speaking, whatever works; I'll roll with it. House Fulton and Col. Christian Woolfe should be alerted. Should any scrolls contain some reference to my dearly departed and faithful hound, Plankton, and/or to the Attack Kittens Sforza and Winston I'd be grateful. And should the text of any scroll contain obscure references to Warren Zevon lyrics, I'd be tickled.
In case of other 'court' - please provide bail $$$ -- I'm good for it, I swear.
