Baron Magnus de Lyons
Persona:
Magnus is a 14th century Englishman. I am not
hardcore about my persona but strive to remain as historical as possible and
improve where and when I can. When the temperature goes up I often joke about
going to a Greek persona, but I doubt that will ever happen.
Interests:
In the SCA I participate
in heavy fighting, fencing, and target archery. When time allows I also enjoy
thrown weapons. I am an avid leather worker focusing mostly on miscellaneous
SCA items like armor accessories and award medallions. I maintain a blog to document my work. It is
located here:

Whims:
I am pretty easy to please. No allergies, no major dislikes,
and no huge pet peeves. If we are passing a mug around the fire I tend to stick
to the light weight stuff. A good hard cider or glass of mead goes a long way with
me.
Outside the SCA I enjoy war gaming and
miniature painting, and when I can find time, like to hike and explore
historical sites. I served with the United States Air Force for a short time
and then worked as a civilian contractor for about ten years before moving to
Buffalo. Now I work for a bank as a physical security supervisor.
