Biography
Pre-Amtgard
The story of Lady Aramis more than likely has her origins inspired by lovely and graceful Nichelle Nichols. Seeing her play the character of Uhura and associate with that sci-fi character would be a door opening to that fandom. With an open mind to sci-fi at that point, Lady Aramis would then be drawn to an assortment of cute guys throughout science fiction, fantasy, martial arts, and monster movies. And somewhere mixed in all this was found a love for the midieval and renaissance times.
Like many she dabbled in the ultimate gateway into all realms fantasy, and that of Dungeons and Dragons. Later while attending college in Missiouri she would try out for a time the live action element of the Middle Ages and Renaissance in the S.C.A.. This proved to be an enjoyable experience in the six months she was involved with the club. Between the S.C.A. and her local Star Trek club would be her first creations of cosplay and costuming.
After college Lady Aramis made the bold move to Texas. While taking some college classes Lady Aramis was talking to a friend of hers on campus when Magnus and Clu Da'Bard, who had just got out of class, walked up. Magnus and her friend started talking, so Clu started talking to Lady Armais. Making conversation, and interested in recruiting more women for Amtgard, Clu mentioned he was part of a live action fantasy role play group. Lady Aramis remembered her time with the S.C.A. and liked Scarborough Faire so found the idea interesting. With that, Lady Aramis was introduced to the world of Amtgard.
Amtgard
Ever adaptive and curious, Lady Aramis would join Amtgard shortly before reign 20 (1998) in the Kingdom of the Emerald Hills. While working in her mundane job, she would meet Cyn De'Isis who was a part of the Amtgard Household Crimson Falcon/Redhawk which had been disassociated from the local kingdom for several years. Due to the peace that was brokered by her friendship, the astranged household would rejoin the Kingdom of the Emerald Hills, aiding not only to the success of that reign, but also to the grown of the western half of the Emerald Hills through contributing to the start and continuation of the Barony of Mourningwood Glen and to the kingdom as a whole as the years would go by.
In the following year (1999) Lady Aramis would be a part of an effort to collect donations after a massive tornado devastated Oklahoma City. This tragedy effected some of the Oklahoma Amtgard members and their communities at that time. It was also during this year she and other women of House Redhawk looked into various art projects of sewing, candle making, cooking, and leatherwork.
In 2000-2001 Lady Aramis took classes at the Isis Studios. While there she discovered that Reyna Arafael, one of the long lost founders of the Emerald Hills, was working at the studios during that time. Reyna made friends with Lady Aramis and other members of House Redhawk following that encounter. When invited by Clu Da'Bard to be the one to drop the sword on him during his knighting on December 2002, Reyna Arafael would graciously accept. Reyna's return after her fourteen year absence was a joyous occasion, and the Emerald Hills has been graced from time to time by her presence since that event.
