===== SCA History =====
Dalin began his life in the SCA in the fall of 2004. He joined the [[branches:Shire:Trinovantia Nova]] group through a mutual friend and began attending fencing practices regularly.

Dalin joined the crew of the Crimson Star in 2006 and has since served as the first mate, under Captain Mateo de Merida.

In 2008 due to a relocating Archery Marshal, Dalin took it upon himself to quickly get his Marshal papers in order to continue shooting Archery in Trinovantia Nova. He performed this duty for two years, until school and other mundane life took him out of regular SCA life for a bit.
