Persona

Dorinda is from England and lives in the later part of the 14th Century.

Offices & Positions

Dorinda has held a variety of offices at the Shire, Principality, Regional and Kingdom level. In no particular order, she has served as:

- Seneschal for the Shire of Heronter

- Exchequer for the Shire of Heronter

- Chronicler for the Shire of Heronter

- Chatelaine for the Shire of Heronter

- Fencing Marshal for the Shire of Heronter

- Chronicler for the Principality of Æthelmearc

- Deputy Seneschal for the Principality of Æthelmearc

- Region 4 Deputy Marshal of Fencing for the Kingdom of Æthelmearc

- Kingdom Marshal of Fencing for the Kingdom of Æthelmearc

- Region 4 Deputy Seneschal and Emergency Deputy for the Kingdom of Æthelmearc

- Kingdom Seneschal for the Kingdom of Æthelmearc*

- Fourth and Seventh Queen of Æthelmearc

*Dorinda held the position of Kingdom Seneschal for just over two weeks when Cygnus the Blissful was victorious in Crown Tourney. Upon stepping up as Princess, the role of Seneschal was turned over to Caitlin the Patient. Much like Samwise Gamgee was a ring bearer, Dorinda was Kingdom Seneschal. While many in larger kingdoms do not believe Kingdom Officers should participate in Crown Tournaments, it is more common in small Kingdoms where a ban would cause several officers to step down instead of a risk of losing one. Dorinda is happy to discuss this over adult beverages with any who are interested.
