Master Theonis de Zeeuwe, OL (A.K.A. Theo van der Zee) joined the SCA in 1988, and "grew up" in the Barony of Gyldenholt. Upon moving to the Barony of Calafia for school, he was a founding member of the Incipient College of St. Ursula. He remained active in the Barony of Calafia, until the mundane world brought him back to Gyldenholt. Theo moved in 2005 to the Shire of Caer Adamant, in the East Kingdom, and played both there and in the Barony of Marinus in the Kingdom of Atlantia before returning yet again to Gyldenholt in 2008.

Persona

Theonis de Zeeuwe is a merchant mariner specializing in small goods. In his spare time Theo enjoys casting pewter.
