THL Katherine of Hornechurch was admitted to the Legion of Courtesy on 11/01/2014 by HRM A'isha.
Persona
- Her Ladyship Katherine joined the SCA in 1992 as a fifteenth century Norman lady, wife to Daniel Aethelwulf, and mother to Alexander Aethelwulf, originator and leader of the Horsemen of Judgment Keep (HOJK). Originally located in Shire of Champclair (Solano County, CA) in the Kingdom of the West, she then moved to the Shire of Teufelberg (Orinda, CA) in 1996. Due to her move to the Shire of Wintermist in 2005, she adopted an early Greek persona to accommodate the warmer weather. She has continued to work diligently since joining the SCA, both for Caid and the Shire of Wintermist.
