King Randall de Gloucester as of late, identifies more with The Great Heathen Army, which established the Danelaw and conquered York in 866. While most of his portrayals are Norse focused, generally speaking, if it is pretty he will wear it. His favorite colors are Purple and Blue. His heraldic colors are Purple, Yellow, and Black. His heraldic emblazon is “Per saltire purpure and sable, a polypus within a bordure embattled Or.” He loves training ambitious fighters, stabbing people with a spear, and good cocktails with friends.
He eats just about anything. However, a few years ago he had gastric sleeve surgery, so his limitations are based more on quantity than quality. The only thing absolutely forbidden is ibuprofen or other NSAID pain relievers.
He prefers Weiss style beers or Saisons or a basic cider. He avoids stouts and other heavy dark beers. Non-alcoholic he prefers non-carbonated beverages like Water, Body-Armor, or Gatorade, with or without sugar is fine. Coffee in the morning with cream and sugar preferred, but not necessary.
King Randall has a wonderful husband, Matthew, who is not active in the Society. King Randall would prefer any garb-based gifts to be more focused on Atlantian Blue, Yellow, and White. Measurements on request.
Queen Iul’iana Krasnaia is a Rus Kievan from somewhere between 9th and 13th centuries. She is right at home with anything Norse inspired. In her spare time, she is also a seamstress who primarily makes appliqued Norse-style tunics. Her favorite color is purple, and her heraldic colors are purple and white. Her heraldic emblazon is “Per bend sinister purpure and argent, two fox’s masks within a bordure counterchanged” She likes meeting new people, catching up with friends, and being of service whenever possible. She is a retired armored combatant, who received the coveted Shark’s Tooth at Gulf Wars in 2011.
Her Highness is allergic to sauerkraut, and avoids olives. Other than these two preferences, she is not picky about meals. Her preferred foods are Vegetables (raw or roasted), breads, Figs, chocolate, savory toasted cheese. She likes Yuengling and Meads, but is a light drinker. For non-alcoholic she prefers Sweet Tea w/o Lemon, Diet Dr. Pepper, Coffee with sweet cream or French vanilla creamer, Water, and sweet drinks. She does not enjoy the smell of lavender.
Queen Iul’iana has a wonderful husband, Don, who is not active in the Society. She will sometimes be accompanied by her daughter Maxine who turns 8 in June.
