Biography

Jerago first came to life in the mind of a 15 year old D&D player who craved something more physical than dice roles. He studied castles, arms, and armor until her moved north from the mundane location of Eugene, Oregon, to Cornellius, Oregon. Luck provided that a neighbor of his (remembered only as Bishop) both loved D&D, and knew of a group that was more forgiving of needed funds for equipment and fighting age than the S.C.A.

He sparred relentlessly with his cousins and Bishop in await of meeting his new rivals and friends at "Rogers Park, in what was known only as "Mystic Seas" durring his time there (1996-97).

He arrived his first day in the finest of peasant garb--a light brown tunic and a loose-woven sheet of green cloth sewn (which is still used on every favored weapon, 13 years later) onto a pair of shorts as a form of kilt, though enthusiasm and lack of skill almost proved fatal.

Durring his first ditch battle with nearly thirty competitors (a number only dreamed of at that age), he charged full onto Bishop and knocked him backwards onto a stump--ever battle afterwards has reminded him to use his finesse, and not his strength.

Jerago remained a member of the Rogers Park Chapter of Mystic Seas for 9 months, then moved back to Eugene.

As the internet was still young, and he was clueless as to what a Eugene group might be called, it took Jerago nearly a year to find the park that members practiced at--Alton Baker Park, home of The Duchy of Iron Keep.

He found a park that typically gathered 50 players on Saturday, and a mire 20 members on Sunday, if not more. His younger years were spent meeting the locals and enjoying what was perhaps the grandest of parks ever to see weekly Amtgard events. While parking was shoddy, it was common to see upwards of 80 people durring some events when people form Mystic Seas came down, and rumor has it that there could be as many as 100 local people on a Saturday only a few year prior.

Jerago harnassed his scouting abilites while at this park, and earned his Master Scout for his prowess on the feild with an acompanyment of a sheild, rapier, maine guache, and a long-bow loaded with 7 arrows, of which he was once quite proficiant with.

He fondly remembers the many quests, events, and friends he made there.

Durring this time, he became a squire to Grand Duke Sir Blade, beating out over 20 hopefuls for the privalage of learning from one of V.S.R.'s finest members.

Durring the middle part of this three years at Iron Keep, an endangered bird forced their meeting location to move, and he lost the bow he so loved due to legal issues with the city officials.

He served as a member of every Duchy office (though only Regent for 15 minutes) durring his time there, which was from 1998 to 2001.

Jerago left due to an auto accident where he was rear-ended at 60+ miles per hour, and several other life -changing issues durring that time.

Durring the years after recovery, he searched several times for the Iron Keep, but had no luck until the begining part of 2008.

He returns older, more rusty, and more skilled in the arts and Sciences.

Jerago loves the A&S more than any other aspect of Amtgard--as it is part of Amtgard he can do at home--with the exception of scoring a good hit with an arrow from range.

He has crafted two styles of chaine maille, several peices of leather armor, briganide, and mixed leather/chain. He is also a decent talior and learned the art of bladesmithing from Grand Duke Sir Hawk.
