For those who might wish to play a peasant, either temporally or as a main

Thanks for all the cool links!  I'll definitely follow up on them.   Also, I'm

a writer/bard in medieval epic poetry.  Is that a profession in the SCA?

Heck yeah it is.  You can be a Bard!

You might look for a group local to your kingdom as well.  For example, my

kingdom of Meridies has a bardic community within the Minstrels guild.
