Some Stuff About Me

Brian de Moray
Protegé Minion

Brian de Moray is my protegé; he's proved himself again and again in such diverse fields as rapier and web design.  He's also pretty patient with his extremely computer-impaired Pelican/Laurel overlord.

Brian is a Freescholar in the Academie D'Espee (Atlantia), and is a member of the order of the Sea Dragon (Fighting).  He is a member of the order of the Crab claw (Baronial Fighting) and the Blasted Oak (Baronial Service) in the Barony of Lochmere, and has been Baronial Rapier Champion for Lochmere.

He has studied period fencing masters, and won a prize for "most accurate representation of a period master" at Dante di Pietro's "Art of Defense" tourney at Sapphire Joust in 2007.

He also manages a number of web sites for, and related to, the Kingdom of Atlantia:

http://www.cutandthrust.org/
http://rapier.atlantia.sca.org/ (Brian's site design for Atlantia's rapier page won Best Overall Website From the William Blackfox Web Awards in 2008.  Congratulations!)

Brian has also recently branched out into new artistic endeavours - this is the Attack Laurel standard he and Lisette laRoux painted for me this year (2008).  It was a complete surprise - we arrived at Pennsic, admired the camp standards flying in the breeze, and askedto whom the black and white one belonged, as I didn't recognize the colours.

"You", they said.

Brian also assisted with painting the other standards.

The motto (chosen by Brian) is "I feed on Evil", which can be taken any number of ways.  Awesome.
