Baroness Éowyn Amberdrake, OP, OL, has been recognized with an Augmentation of Arms and Personal Heraldic Title. She is married to Baron Jamal Damien Marcus, OL, KSCA.

Her motto is borrowed from Michaelangelo, who inscribed it next to an image of Father Time: "Ancora Imparo", translated by Ralph Waldo Emerson in "Poetry and Imagination" (1847) as "I am still learning."

Persona Biography

Born in Northumbria near the Holy Island of Lindisfarne in the year 650, Éowyn learned to read, write, and cipher from the fathers of the island. She ran away with a bard, but after she was left a widow, she eventually became a scribe at Lindisfarne. She has a carved amber dragon that others mention when distinguishing her from the other Éowyn who lives not far away. She left/will leave this amber drake to her granddaughter, also named Éowyn . She, in turn, leaves it to her daughter, and so on. The last Éowyn was heard from shortly after 1600, in the New World, about to embark on a trek through the deserts of New Mexico.

SCA Biography

Éowyn first found the SCA at LACon, the World Science Fiction Convention in Los Angeles, in 1972. She returned to her home area of al-Barran, Outlands, Atenveldt, where she participated mostly through the UNM fencing club and the Albuquerque Science Fiction Society. Moved to Freehold of the Great River, Outlands, Atenveldt, where she started training as an SCA fighter. Moved to Barony of Angels, Caid, in 1975, and became a founding member of the canton of Lyonesse (soon to be Lyondemere) in July 1975. Has remained resident in Lyondemere ever since. She received her Laurel in 1979 for Scribal arts (primary) and leaded glass (secondary) at Balin and Amsha's Coronation, and her Pelican for her work with the office of Scribe Armarius, at Adrian and Ealasaid's Coronation in November 1982.

As Scribe Armarius, she computerized the records of the office (before the era of home computers) and that of Caidan awards in general, held semi-regular scriptoria at people's houses, hosted the scriptorium on the second day of Collegium that is now an institution, wrote several teaching broadsides, and generally encouraged scribes.

Éowyn joined the Board of Directors in 1984. At her first meeting, there were the first phone calls and letters in what promised to be a storm of upset subscribers to the Compleat Anachronist over issue #13. She volunteered to pull together a bonus issue on short notice, and by leveraging the skills of many talented Caidans, got issue #14 ready for publication in record time. She also participated in the Corporate review of the offices (which resulted in the consolidation of the separate offices of Arts and Sciences at the Corporate level). She was Chairman for her last year on the Board, and stepped down in 1988.

Later in 1984, Baldwin of Erebor, was tapped for Laurel and he asked Éowyn to be Clarion Queen of Arms. As Clarion, Éowyn and Bruce Draconarius of Mistholme worked with the College of Arms to revise the Rules for Submissions, and introduced several useful pieces of documentation (since superceded). They were also regulars at the monthly Laurel work parties.

In 1989, Caid's College of Heralds decided to host the Known World Heraldic and Scribal Symposium, and Éowyn agreed to be both overall autocrat and producer of the Proceedings volumes (Hrorek Halfdane of Faulconwood was editor). She did the layout, pulled together the Florilegium article from past CoA correspondence, and contributed some articles. She discovered that also teaching at that symposium was one task too many, and finds those classes to be a blur in her memory.

In 1991, Éowyn agreed to serve the remaining year of a Board director that needed to retire. So she was back on the BoD for a year.

In 1992, Bruce Draconarius of Mistholme became Laurel, and Éowyn agreed to be Drop Dead Deputy, mostly working at the monthly work parties. She did supervise the transfer of the office to his successor, and issued one month's LoAR documenting Laurel's decisions. She decided that was not her forte.

Then there was a period of rest and relaxation, in which she held no offices, and took up embroidery. She wrote some articles, but generally kicked back. She did design the site token for the first Great Western War 1997.

In 2000, she and her lord husband were named as successors to the Baron and Baroness of Lyondemere. There followed five years of intense local activity in a great Barony, until stepping down in 2006. At Winter Weekend in 2006, she was talking with some other heralds, and somehow agreed to autocrat the next Known World Heraldic and Scribal Symposium in Caid, in 2007. With the help of a great group of people doing most of the work, we pulled it off, even hosting a 1-day scribal workshop on the art of Jean Bourdichon, with Sylvana Barrett (a local teacher who often teaches at the Getty) the day before.

In 2007, a Westerner approached Éowyn and Richenda Elizabeth Coffin with an idea about holding an interkingdom needlework symposium (IKINS). The first was in Caid in 2008, the second in the West in 2009, then rest for a bit. The third IKINS was part of the Collegium Caidis event in 2012, with Éowyn and Richenda as local co-autocrats.

Éowyn is currently holding no offices, and concentrating on writing and publishing books about embroidery based on historical styles, and teaching embroidery as well, in the modern world.

Many thanks to the generous scribes who have made award scrolls for me: Louise of Woodsholme (Pelican), Zenobia Naphtali (Court Baroness), Teleri of Gwynedd (AA), Atanielle Unesse (Dolphin), Thomas Brownwell (Leaf of Merit), Bruce Draconarius of Mistholme (Augmentation of Arms). I treasure each one.
