Biography
Nesta started larp-ing in January 2005 on the campus of Baylor University. Nesta first started playing Amtgard at Spring War 2006 (? the memory is fuzzy), goaded on by warnings to avoid the game like the plague. Of course, she went to that Spring War, and eventually joined Amtgard when her HFS park became inactive.
Nesta currently plays in the Barony of Slaughter Creek, Celestial Kingdom.
Nesta is known for her flamboyant garb - both the garb she wears, and the garb she creates for other people. She is notorious for fighting in a bikini top and wearing cropped bodices for feast and court, even in the "harsh" Texas winters. She is "the one that makes those badass pants."

• Can, and will, pull alpha on you with malice aforethought.
• Was told that she is "not an artist." Heh. You keep thinking that one.
• Can make stripy pants without a pattern, and occasionally even without measurements. However, hates sewing t-tunics for herself (even with a pattern) because...they just don't look right!
• Is, in fact, an English professor.
• Loves the color turquoise. Loves the color blue in general.
• is 1/3 of Sylvaenesta.
