Note: This is not an official Creative Anachromisn Society or and Adrian Empire web blog site, and is intended for those that may choose to do Golden Swan or other persona challenges that wish to undertake  an Elizabethan persona.

At the time this web blog was constructed, M'Lady Christiana, she was a member of the Society of Creative Anachronism up to Jan 31, 2012. In March of 2011 she looked into joining the Adrian Empire, and has made the decision along with her household to join April 2011. As a life time member, and in during M'lady Christiana, will not be concerned about membership fee increases and will be able to attend more events within the Okanagan Valley. The decision was not taken lightly, and was a decision made by the household of Phasiani lacus Manerium to join as a group into the Arch Duchy of Connacht.

Thank you for visiting the website I Christiana hope that you have enjoyed the reading and the research that is applied to create a persona. For those that have the opportunity to do a persona challenge, it is a rewarding experience, into our past, and to be able to bring the past to life, without the hardships.
