He was a fixture in the canton of Gallavalley (Hemet and San Jacinto) and was probably one of the key driving forces in making it an active group along with his friend, the late Steffan the Scrivener. I believe that he was also very active in the Barbarian Freehold as "Ravnos" even though he was one of the more outlying members. He'd been inactive sometime after I became inactive in person (although still active via the Caidlist).
