Silenus of Mycenae is the Cabin Boy, Emissary, and Bard of the Pact of [[Inept Engineers]], and a resident of the Barony of Calafia. He is affectionately known by many in the Kingdom and the Barony as “Hector” as he spent over a decade attending SCA events going only by his mundane name.

Silenus is a bard, socialite, and carouser who loves poetry, storytelling, and making new friends.
 
== Persona == 
Silenus of Mycenae is a Greek Christian directly descended from Byzantine aristocracy, born in 1455 shortly after the fall of Constantinople. As a result yet he was raised as a second-class citizen under the rule of the Ottoman Empire. As a boy he was taken from his family for blood price, but rather than becoming a Janissary and converting to Islam, he was taken to the dancing halls to become a Köçek. A male belly dancer and courtesan.

He was liberated shortly before he aged out of dancing (typically when one begins to grow facial hair) by his crew-mates of the Inept Engineers. He now serves as the ship's cabin boy and Emissary, as of AS 54 he bears the tile of Bard of the Inept Engineers. His garb is from many different cultures because the ship travels everywhere, and as a courtesan he prefers to wear clothing of his Patrons native culture.
