Kolfinna Egilsdóttir

Koia is my real-life daughter, and it has been such a joy to watch her learning new skills, and outright blossoming as she walks the path of Service in the SCA. It has been a genuine pleasure to defer to her knowledge of Rus garb as I embarked on my first attempts.

Kyna Terricsdottir

Koia once ran an entire chivalric tournament blindfolded.
