House Romani was founded in 1998 in Calafia by eight young adventurers caught by the gleaming bauble of the gypsy lifestyle and a life in the SCA that hearkened back to the days when you couldn't pass by a camp without being hailed in to have a drink.
The eight founders took hold of this idea of fun, friendship, and heavy drinking and ran with it. Since its inception, this oasis of fun has grown into a good healthy house now supporting many fighters and marshals. The exact number of Romani is still a mystery as they are unable to count. In keeping with the Romani traditions their ethnic background is diverse. House Romani is a gypsy Kumpania, (a traveling family) comprised of many small groups that trace their lineage from all over the world, you will find everything from Scots to Russian to pirate personas in our house. What makes Them a family is their attitude and the philosophy of fun. All are welcome to stop by have a drink share in the entertainment.
The house colors are Azure and Or, and the crest is a gold wagon wheel on a blue background.
The structure of the Romani places the Rom as the Leader of the house--not that anyone actually listens to him or does what he says. Equal to the Rom are the Members with Gold Sashes. They are the Leaders of the house and deal with the Mundane issues. Next in line are the members with Blue Sashes to indicate those members who have shown an interest in contributing to the overall fun.
On 11/13/2004, The Romani were honored as a fighting unit with the Crossed Swords of Caid.
