Biography

Lucas started Amtgard in Eagleshire, as one of a group of newbs introduced to the game by Sir Squeak!, Sir Archangel, and several others. Among the more famous members of that group are Sir Forest Evergreen and Sir Corbin. He introduced his younger brother, Talen, to the game a couple weeks after he started.

In Eagleshire, he called himself "Lucas of Eagleshire". That's not such a hot idea any more. He chose "the Lost" to reflect how he misses more 'mainstream' Amtgard. If and when southern California sports its own kingdom, he'll clearly have to change it again.

Once a he-whore, he has long since settled down and got married. He and his wife are currently expecting their first child, a daughter due in January 08.

Unable to play after moving to Michigan in the mid 90s, he has more recently helped to found the Shire of what is now Siar Geata in San Diego.

Once upon a time, Lucas acknowledged no master and few equals with a single sword. These days, he knows better. In defense of his long-passed delusions, he did manage to take first place in a kingdom level tourney in the single sword event. He didn't place in any other category.

Lucas has a habit of naming things, particularly newcomers who (in his oh-so-humble opinion) haven't come up with a name of their own fast enough. Two months should be enough for anyone. Rangor received the last name "Tree Crusher" after back-pedaling over/through a small tree and a sign post, Fanny compared his madu to a fan one too many times, The Ugly Stick is a particularly hideous example of First Weapon Syndrome, and so on.

Affiliated Groups

Lucas is a member of the Green Dragons, though he was moved for a time to the 'Crusty Old Members of the Green Dragons' list after leaving Texas for Michigan.
