Greetings from one new guy to another!

[Sir James A]

James,
Yes it is a wyvern on my elbows but what I am wearing are called bauzebans (sp) and the way they work is vambraces and elbows in a single pattern...I will take a better pic of them and post it...I love my rigs and I love fighting....hopefully I can get to Pennsic someday and see everyone..

Ah, I see, I thought it was low profile elbows. Bazubands is how I see it spelled, sometimes called "bazus" for shorthand. They're eastern/persian in origin.

Welcome! And what do you mean moved away from DnD? I still have a blast with that game! 
And our usual meets are VARF, MDRF, and the annual DOK events. I think only Sir Ed does Pennsic (besides the SCAdians among the order, that is).

So what year is your Mongol impression, and what region? I haven't seen much of those before. And if you wanted to multi-kit, a Gallowglass kit wouldn't be as expensive as a full knightly kit, if you want to take the Irish road.

Sir Nathan,
Moved away from DnD cause family stuff and not enough time, between family, work and SCA.

My Mongol persona is around 1272 thats when Chagatai second son to temujin (genghis kahn) was born. So from 1272 until his death which if my memory stands from the secret history was in his later years...I forget the actual date. There were knights in Mongol history they were just not called Knights per se but they belonged to the Golden Horde and were Genghis' guards and closest advisors so I try to play that role and be a good squire to my knight.

Not interested in going back to my Irish persona soon but maybe. My beliefs and fighting style are more like the Asian mentality. I really like that culture as well as my heritage but thinking I am going to stick with Asian for now. I shall look into that rig though!!

oooh, LrdMurchadh...

first from a fellow newcomer, welcome! 

second, my SCA persona is Japanese, age 30 in 1275... when the Mongols invaded!!  here's hoping we both can make the "crusade" to Pennsic as it's called around here.  I'd love to work with you just to have a Samurai vs a Mongol battle royale!
