Brigit the slave child ) Commissar Russ Brigit the slave child Commissar Russ -If you have your heraldry tattooed on you. (Sir Roland Grunwald, on his chest) Does house device count? I wouldn't tatoo my own, but the house device is cool...Explain it, please Surely! I hope you'll excuse my delayed response--I was at war ( heart ) Our device is a cracked white skull surrounded by eight red hammers on a black field. It isn't heraldicly correct, but it's also not registered with the SCA. However, it is copywrited and if someone tries to run off with it they'll be in a world of hurt. For a picture, check www.hammerstorm.com or www.hammerstormsouth.com My personal device is per bend sinister argent and sable, two ravens couped, ajoined and counterchanged. Few can make sense of that, and I'm just happy I found heralds who could blazon it for me. That's pretty badass...I love norse and saxons and the like I personally am a "transitional" one living in northern germany

- if you've ever had your neighbor give you the, "now, if there's a boy in your life that's doing these things to you, you don't have to take it..." talk after coming home from a tourney
- when your professor asks you to wear your armor to class one day
- when you're no longer scared to walk around campus as long as there's a stick handy
- when you actually enjoy sewing and crafts and stuff (I used to HATE sewing and crafts)

You're in the SCA if...
... You have worn your garb to school to win an argument with your History teacher on what Vikings really wore.
OR
...You have ever signed your History report with your SCA name. "The History of Viking Warfair by Geirhildr Olarsdottir" stressed

-when directing a mundane fencing bout, you slip and call "hold" instead of "halt" (confuses the hell out of my coach)

You might be in the SCA if...
~If you're playing dodgeball in gym class, and you shout 'light' when you get hit
~If you've ever used duct tape to hold up a bikini top

-you give driving directions in heraldic terms.
And the person you're talking to doesn't get lost.

*If your boyfriend gives you a knife as a gift, and you squeal saying "aw! you shouldn't have!"
*If you realize that someone left their sword behind at an event, you don't worry as to their sanity, only whether or not they'll get it back.

you might be in the SCA if...
you've ever taken a friend to the hospital for a grievous arrow wound
your I.Q. is above 70, you don't ride a motorcycle, and you wear a helmet
you've ever passed up tacos for mutton
you've ever told stories about the scar that "would have been"
your 4 year old children respond to "HOLD!" better than thier names
you have a pair of wooden dentures to supplement your mundane ones.
