Tiarna Ciothruadh Dubh, also known as Kythera of Anevern, Cithrúadh dubán, Ciothruadh of Lyondemere, and Creature Gargoyl.

Ciothruadh first encountered the SCA in the early 1990s, and resided for a time in the Barony and Kingdom of Atenveldt, but remained elusive and shy. In 2005, she relocated to the Barony of Lyondemere in the Kingdom of Caid, where she has been happy and active (and not a little bit silly) since 2008, having finally found Her People.

At Lyondemere Anniversary and Investiture 2009, Ciothruadh was inducted into the Order of the Sanderling by Their Excellencies Thomas and Angelina, and granted an Award of Arms by Their Royal Majesties Edward II and Mora II.

Purveyor of whimsy.

Persona

Ciothruadh Dubh is a Celt of some variety, who currently has a something of a Viking identity crisis.

A Note on Nomenclature

Ciothruadh, though reportedly pronounhced "Kiruah" ("Like Japanese Kahlua!" - Beathog nic Dhonnchaidh), was selected from yon list of Irish names because it looks like an Irish spelling of "Kythera" (which is pronounced more like "hyphen" than "kitten"). Ergo, she will answer to both, though probably more readily to "Kythera" than "Japanese Kahlua". Ciothruadh Dubh and Ciothruadh the Black are equally acceptable either spoken or written.

There is also a rumor about someone matching Ciothruadh's description who is called Creature Gargoyl...

Largesse

Ciothruadh was requested by Her Royal Majesty Cassandra to create largesse in the theme of period playing cards. These are a series of 2.5" x 3.5" cards based on a 16th century French deck, each depicting the recipients in baronial/kingdom colors, with the baronial/kingdom populace badge in place of the suit pips. The background of each card uses the field division and colors of the recipient's personal arms. A set of cards featuring Their Majesties was created as well. Sets are listed in the order in which they were presented.

Other Info

Ciothruadh Dubh is also known as Kythera of Anevern (it should be noted that "Kythera of Anevern" is a purely modern invented name, and as far as she knows, "Anevern" is not a real place).
