I am Sir Didymous LaRoth founder and President of the Most Noble Order of the Rouse Clan. This forum is part of an ongoing labor of love. It was put together by me, but it couldn't have happened without the support of my wife, or the input of the members of the Order. Since it's just not a community unless we get to know one another I ask that you introduce yourself. You need not give your real name, but just tell us a bit about yourself. I'll go first. In the mundane world I'm a minister, cook, and meat cutter. It's a bit of an odd combination, I know, but I'm a bit odd too. I guess that means that it just fits. I love hanging with my wife (Latitia), reading and writing. I'm also fond of most types of music (not rap, and I don't care much for the newer country), classical being my favorite. Poetry rocks, I read and write it frequently, and I love classic films and B-movies. So welcome aboard, take a look around and please post often. A forum is only as active as it's users.

Hello, My name is Christella Wellsworth. I am a stay at home mom of three wonderful children who keep me busy 99.9% of my life. Ihave been married to my wonderful husband for 16 years. My hobbies are my children, and volunteering. Iam a sunday school teacher as well as the leader to The Sunbeams for the Salvation Army. I also in my spair time co-lead for the Girl Scouts troop 10003. The rest of my time is spent volunteering at my youngest daughter's school. I love to volunteer. My involvement in the Noble order, is a way for me to exscape from the real world and to live a life that will not offend anyone,and I can show my strong belief in fighting for the word of God in this twisted world of today. So that is my life as I see it. Thanks

Greetings to all members of this noble order of chivalry.
My name is Clive, and I am from England. I joined this forum at the invitation of Sir Didymous, whom I met through Living History Worldwide. In the present day I am a writer, historian and a sculptor. In 2009 I was made a Knight of the Order of St. Lazarus of Jerusalem.
My periods of interest are the Norman Conquest, the Crusades, the wars of Edward I and the Hundred Years' War up to the Treaty of Bretigny. I am also intrigued by Owain Glyndwr, and I have just finished reading John Cowper Powys' novel about him. I combine these eras with a love of folklore and mythology; and I often get consulted about these topics. And, I am only too happy to pass on any research that may be helpful to other members of this forum.
I have been involved in re-enacment for a number of years - mainly as a historical advisor. I have been actively involved with the Knights Hospitaller of Warwickshire for the past couple of years, and I have just formed my own group, the Company of the Black Bird. My characters are a Norman baron; a Templar, Frere Reynald, Knight-Preceptor of Montaigle; Sir John Conyers the dragon slayer (the subject of my latest book); Sir William Longsword (killed at El-Mansourah in 1250); Sir Berenguer de Roncenay (siege of Acre 1291); and Sir Heinrich von Morungen the German Minnesang; and Sir Jean de Rouxelot, one of the champions from the Combat of the Thirty in 1351.
My re-eanctment philosophy is that while authenticty is important, one should not sacrifice enjoyment on its altar.
Anyway, I'm pleased to be here; and I look forward to being a part of this forum.

I am known as Captain Zorikh, in the SCA as Lord Ervald the optimistic. I do armored combat, submission grappling, write, draw, make videos, act, and do musical entertainments. My latest project is "Return to Pennsic," a video documentary that will be a follow-up to "The Pennsic War: A video Documentary," which I helped produce 20 years ago and re-released 10 years ago. Glad to be here.

Welcome aboard! Our group does live steel, and I hope we can have discussions. We've worked with the Marche of Marshes and Cateden, two of the local SCA groups in the Barony of Red spears on a charity function some years back. Good people.

I, Sir Rhydderch ap Eirwyn Bathory, Viceroy of the Isle of Crete, Companion to the Imperial Order of the Nebula, Lord of the Imperial Court of Adria, Knight Minister, First and Last Knight of the Ancient Lands of Valencia, Holder of the Golden Spoon of Adria, Recipient of the Golden Turkey Leg of the Northeast, and Keeper of the Sapphire Ladle of Somerset (I like to cook - LOL) send forth Greetings unto the most Noble Order of the Rouse Clan. The Isle of Crete is part of the Adrian Empire and is comprised of the counties in the southeastern portion of the lands know as Ohio. I have been involved with the Empire for over 10 years and have served as an Imperial Minister for several of those years and also a member of the Board of Directors for 2 years. I come to you this day as part of a quest. A quest to find like minded souls who believe that our Knightly Code should not just be part of a game in which we play on the weekends, but a standard for the way in which we live our daily lives. I hope that among your Clan I will find the camaraderie that I seek. Attachments:

Welcome aboard! That's quite a title you hold. I trust you will not take offence if I call you simply Sir Rhydderch. We look forward to sharing our quest for chivalrous lives with you. Pray though, might I inquire what group you hold such an impressive title through?

Pray though, might I inquire what group you hold such an impressive title through? Rhydderch will do just fine, as I assume we are among friends here and actually, my title is rather short compared to those of many of my friends... However in answer to your query, the organization would be the Adrian Empire.
