Trillium Signet seeks successor!

Patrika Asa Gormsdottir has served the Scribal College faithfully and well as Trillium Signet. However, time is relentless in its forward march, and her tenure is rapidly reaching the end of its second year. To that end, we are putting out a call for a successor to this august position.

Speaking as someone who has held this post in the past, this position is a wonderful opportunity to get a front-row seat to the glorious process of bringing the amazing talents of the College to worthy gentles the Kingdom over. 

The Signet’s duties are broadly as follows:

  • Confidentially coordinate with Their Majesties on award assignments;
  • Advertise assignment opportunities through Facebook and email to the Ealdormere Scribal College;
  • Ensure completed scrolls are delivered to TRMs in a timely manner for signature and seal;
  • Maintain the Signet spreadsheet and Gmail account;
  • Maintain the Ealdormere Scribal Handbook;
  • Liaise with the Trillium Herald on special projects; and
  • Liaise with the Scribal College Deputies – Clerk Register, Education & Outreach, and Heraldry Liaison – to ensure they are able to perform their duties.
If this sounds like something of interest to you, please send your application by email to [email protected] AND to [email protected] by March 18th, 2026. Applicants must have up-to-date memberships. The official change over date will be at Spring Coronation.

Current Reign and Preferences

Wassail to their Lupine Majesties, King Tristham and Queen Anneke!

Their Majesties have declared the following preferences for scrolls and other forms of awards during their reign:
  • Preferred Titles of King and Queen.
  • Use of stamps or seals (not hanging seals)
  • No specific theme for their reign, as they will likely be exploring multiple time periods.

Upcoming Reign of Prince Crispin and Princess Laura

Their Highnesses have declared the following preferences for scrolls and other forms of awards during their reign:
  • They will use the wax seals and sometimes the stamp.
  • Please avoid hanging (pendant) seals.
  • You may place Rex and Regina below Their signature lines
  • No Royal Whims at this time regarding preferred period or style on scrolls.

New for scribes - Pronunciation field in Award Recommendation Form

Unto the scribes, illuminators, calligraphers, and wordsmiths of Ealdormere, greetings and salutations!

As of today (Oct 31st), the Award Recommendation Form on the Kingdom of Ealdormere website has an additional field for the Pronunciation of recipients SCA name.

Whilst the mangling of Irish Gaelic is a time-honoured tradition, this field is designed to help heralds reading scrolls pronounce the recipient's name correctly. This is especially desirable as we move away from Eurocentrism in our game and more people are doing personas outside of Europe.

We would strongly encourage scribes to include this pronunciation on your scroll's wording sheet to assist the heralds.
