He was active between 1998 and 2004; after 2004, he lapsed into inactivity, though he does maintain some online presence.

Spearweasel is one of the better known Japanese personae in Amtgard (he plays a sohei), but is infamous for various online Amt-parodies and hoaxes such as Toby Wayne Morrison, the Shire of Lysenko, and Morbid Glenn. Spearweasel served as Shogun (Monarch) of the Celestial Kingdom from October 2002 to April 2003. Events during his reign were marked by frequent beheadings at court, Chinese acrobats from University of Texas, and a fireworks display at the knighting of Sir Vigus the Very, Very, Very Large, during Spring War. Spearweasel served as the sheriff of Drakenroc and the CK Webgoon, among other minor offices.
