Shamay:



Coming from a background in Japanese and Chinese martial arts, I joined Western Circle to hone my skills once again and take on a new form. I have a wide variety of hobbies such as wood crafting, dancing, music composition, acting, and so forth!

Swordsmanship and martial arts mean more to me than mere skills in combat. As a Norse pagan, I find martial arts one of many gateways to the spirit and a special way to honor my ancestors and what they stood for. For the future in WCoS, I aim to become a fighter in tournaments, but also to enhance my skills in order to protect myself and the ones I love.

Secretly (or not so much), I enjoy sparring and fighting, and I learn many lessons from many people. I find the thrill exhilarating.
