This is a place for *newcomers* to the SCA to ask questions and learn about names, heraldry, heavy weapons fighting, garb and the many other topics unique to the SCA culture and about SCA activities in general. Please feel free to ask any questions you have, as many of the members of this club are longtime SCA participants who are here specifically to answer your questions. Remember there are no stupid questions here.

++There is a search function in the Messages section if you would like to check previous answers and see if they help with your question but repeat questions are always welcome too.++

Notes: As an anti-spam measure, new members' first few posts are moderated. The moderation is removed once the list administrators verify that you are a real person and not a spambot. Suggested links will be reviewed by list administrators before inclusion.
