Contessa Lorissa du Griffin, OP was born into the SCA in April 1967. A member of the Barony of Angels and Griffin Freehold, she has the distinction of being the youngest monarch in the SCA when she reigned as Princess of Caid at age 10. In 1985, Lorissa moved to Atenveldt for 3 years where she resided in the Barony of Atenveldt. She moved back to Caid in 1988, then went to school in the West Kingdom in 1990. In 1998 Lorissa was happy to return home to Caid. She was active in the Barony of Altavia and reactivated Griffin Freehold, now more than 25 members strong. She and her husband Lord Jason ap Griffin, an accomplished chef, are active in the Kingdom as well as Altavia and Angels. They also serve as wait staff to their two dogs.
