Baronet Squire Lalailom Risteska, of Inland Ocean, Northern Lights
"Staccatto, get on your knees. I want to see how this works!"
Biography
A young woman who started her Amtgard career in Cage Valley in May of 2003. She founded the Crimson Sanctum in 2004 with Anberon and resided there until 2008. Thereafter she moved to Inland Ocean and continues to be an active player. She has spent many years dedicating herself to the arts of Amtgard, specifically garb. An excellent seamstress, she claims that she can sew anything as long as the client can draw a picture of it and it does not violate the laws of physics.
Since pronouncing her name seems to be a common problem, Lalailom has picked up a number of nicknames along the way, including "Lolly," "Lalalalalailom," "Lollipop," and "Lollicup,". It is correctly pronounced la-LIE-lum. The name comes from Tolkien's Sindarin elven. "Lalai" is the word for laughter. "Lum," here changed to "lom" for aesthetic reasons, means echo. Her surname, Risteska, is a variant of the words for "broken home."
