Nesta holds dual citizenship in [[Amtgard]] and [[HFS]]. She 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 is known for her flambuoyant 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 created the patchwork striped pants of Awesomeness currently worn by the Abi, having earned 2nd place honors at SW Best of the Best 2011. Nesta also made [[Augustus]]'s pair of golden stripy pants.
