The Navy of Lochac
From their Excellencies of Ildhafn
Greetings Good Gentles of the Barony of Ildhafn
The Baronage of Ildhafn has two ports of note within its shores. During Canterbury Faire it came to Our attention that the Lord High Admiral of Lochac, Don Martuccio Lorenzo Nico Cavalcanti de Medici, had but a small fleet and one oar. To ensure that Our messages continue to reach Crown, We approached the Admiral with the offer of ships for the Royal Navy.

We welcome everyone
We're an open, welcoming and inclusive club - we don't care what your skin colour is or where you're from, what god(s) you believe in (or don't), what gender you are, or like, or wish to dress as. Our interest is in learning about and having fun with the good bits of the Middle Ages and Renaissance (and the "good bits" definitely do not include the intolerance and bigotry that was all too common through history).
There's been a recent news article about a group at Auckland University who promote European culture through activities such as medieval reenactments. They're not associated with us or the SCA, and while we see they share our enjoyment of reenactment, we also hope that they share our openness to people of all races and beliefs (and all the other differences that make Auckland a wonderfully cosmopolitan city) joining them.
