My Heraldry





My Picture

 

SCA NAME: Aloyisius
MUNDANE NAME: W. R. James Barber
NICKNAME: "Delicious"
EMAIL: barbarian818@hotmail.com
HOBBIES: Persuaded our most harsh ship's mistress to lay down the whip and wrestling with an apparently amourous kilt. (See crew photos for pic o' me wrestling with the damn thing as it hugs my head...)
LONG TERM GOALS: Avoiding being whipped (no good strategies for that as yet) and persuading the miserly cap'n to double the grog rations, from letting us watch her drink the grog once a fortnight to allowing us to watch her twice a fortnight. If she were to see fit to allow us close enough to the quarter-deck and her sublime presence to actually SMELL the grog, life would be complete ere now. (Me thinks I mayhap be suckin' up too hard, the puir lass's cheeks are lookin' a wee caved in about now..)
WHY I LIKE THE SCA: Alcohol and sharp steel ain't just for breakfast anymore....

WHY I HATE THE SCA?: I wear nought but a shocking yellow and black kilt and a smile (a walking schoolbus, that's me!) and I BLEND IN!!!! sheesh, what's a puir bairn t'do to be considered a freak in this motley crew?
FAVOURITE SAYING: "Yes, that IS a dagger in my pocket, AND I'm glad to see you..."
ABOUT MY PERSONA:

Aloyisius Gilhooley Mckearacher, known t'me intimates as The Great Delicious.

A Highland Scot with Itchy Feet syndrome, Aloyisius set out to walk around the circumference of Scotland, finding one place pretty much as drizzley and depressing as the next and discovering his nasty allergy to sheep the hard way, our braw Aloysius found himself at loose ends in a southern port of Scotland when the bonny ship Othel Wynn came in to resupply, having expended her supply of cannon fodder trying to duplicate Chinese fireworks for her dread cap'ns Birthday Party. The Lady Maurin having caught his eye, (despite her constant stroking and murmuring sweet nothings to her whip) the lad decided to further his quest for new horizons with the drunken and vaguely debauched crew... For the nonce, he seeks to learns to duck BEFORE m'lady Cap'n takes notice, and is practising trying to learn to wrap a kilt in a storm.
