OP Listing: Elsa von Schammach

Persona History

  • Born in 15c Germany
  • Learned divers textile arts from friends in my early days in Mooneschadowe (2005)
  • Apprenticed to a Dane/Saxon Silversmith of the Kudzu (October 2009)
  • Married a 15c Milanese Centurion (July 2010)
  • Learned Glass from Bea (April 2011)


As written out for the Sable Swap Round 2 (09-27-2012):

Elsa was born in Germany to a family of lesser nobility who discarded their honors in sympathy with the Hussite Rebellion (c. 1410 CE). Suddenly dispossessed, Elsa (somehow) met and fell in love with a Milanese (c. 1450 CE) soldier, and married him when he became a Centurion and therefore able to support her studies as an Apprentice.
