About Me

I've been in training for several years to become one of the Knights Templar. I've been fitted for the chain mail hauberk, greaves, etc., already have a rather fine sword (a scimitar, to be exact - taken in battle from a most valiant Saracen), have several vassals who pay tribute to me, and am just about to close escrow on a rather fine Mott and Bailey style castle in the Holy Land, complete with moat and functioning portcullis.

As Prince Rilian, you are brave, noble and intelligent, but easily misguided! Just make sure you don't go after any green women. Which Chronicles of Narnia character are you?

Your Inner European is Italian!
Passionate and colorful.
You show the world what culture really is. Who's Your Inner European?

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Anyone...be they maiden or squire, vassal or lord, femme ou homme....regardless, please feel free to leave me a message. J'aime tout le monde!!!
People who like the Bayeux Tapestry are cool:

Pancake adventures

When I awoke this morning I was craving some delicious breakfast...but the usual milk and cereal variety just did not seem to appeal...it is a Saturday morning, after all, and a pseudo holiday to boot...

Long overdue pictures of my France trip
