Introduction

First Introduced to the game at the Fort Trion Medieval festival

Albrecht Anker started in the SCA in 2019 after witnessing a friend participate in the Østgarðr Championships at Fort Tryon Medieval Festival the previous year. Albrecht attended the East Kingdom Novice Day, Ducal Challenge, and Østgarðr Championships in his first year. Albrecht then went full ethereal when the modern plague swept through our lands and utilized his mundane skills to keep things ethereal until things were safe. You will typically see Albrecht at the Østgarðr fighter practice and EK Southern Army Practice and just about every melee or fighting event when his mundane life doesn't get in the way.

Persona

Dutch Privateer, sailing the eastern seas a representative of the budding VOC and liaison to various Wakou organizations and groups. Albrecht began his naval career as sea beggar or Geuzen which where a confederacy of Calvinist Dutch nobles, who from 1566 opposed Spanish rule in the Netherlands. Thus through William of Orange 18 Sea Beggar ships where commissioned and Albrecht served on many.

The Netherlands declared its independence in 1581 from Spain. The Netherlands was no longer able to rely on Spanish ships for trade and so actively engaged in maritime pursuits to establish commercial viability. The VOC was established in 1602 through the merger of several trading companies. Albrecht at the time being the captain/CEO of one of those smaller companies that merged into the VOC. The company established headquarters at Batavia (now Jakarta) on the island of Java where the Governor-General of East India resided. Through the VOC and the Governor-General of East India, Albrecht became the privateer liaison for various Wakou organizations tied to Japanese Clans in 1600s. Albrecht used his time as a Geuzen in the 80 Years War to teach European sea tactics to Wakou crews such as port blockading, port razing, shoal shading, and night maneuvers.
