House Spartikus

Oooooooh this page needs redone. I need new pictures, a full member list, and other such hoo-ha. I've finally made a new standard that I actually like (all grovel before the winged otter rampant!). Excuse the dust for now. I'll have it fixed up soon.

Let me tell you a bit about Spartikus (named after a cartoon on Nikelodeon I adored as a child). The governing body is dual, the two parties being, Myself (Mistress/Lord of Desire) and my Lyra (Priestess of Inebriation). Things happen, you see when two close friends are hungover after a long weekend of eventing. Why try to find a house to suit us, when we're just to much for any other house to handle? Or would that be too much for any house to want to deal with?

As a whole, we're not involved with the real politics of the S.C.A. (read: "not at all involved as I'm terrible egocentric and very bad with details"). We respect it, we just don't participate. A little, by proxy, but not enough to count. We're a highstrung bunch, you see. I must appoint someone to keep tabs on court events. There has been too little of this so far.

Our house, and it's members, hail from the Kingdom of An Tir. Like most other households, we drink and have stupid party games and traditions, the Cloven Shuttlecocks of Doom (dun dun duuuun!), for example. Occasionally we also have a King's X set up for the amusement of all. Seadog Nights '03, for example, had one Hell of a show. I was distracted by serious mundane drama and didn't think to take pictures (more the fool me). All in all, our reputation is rather darker than is deserved. "Sex House" indeed! There has only been one live sex show in all the years we've been together (and few copies of the video to prove it). Still, our general entertainment is not for the faint of heart. Or minors.

Veiw my SCA related projects and crafts!

Read the minute notes on events Spartikus has graced.

Take a glance at our House Rules. They may be subject to some change, but this is the basic flavor.

Ah yes, our House Anthem is Patrick Swayze Christmas by Crow T. Robot. Don't ask why, it is because I say it is.

Spartikus Toast
"Do it young, do it often, and do it well."
(As to what "it" is, who knows? It's meant to be subjective.)

Spartikus House Moto
"It will be significant."

Translated into Latin by Alchemey's Deacon Luther Iberius!
"Et Nurem Facio Significanter."

Spartikus House Drink
"Quick Fuck"
(a deviation of the "sloe comfortable screw")

And for those curious about those who might befriend such an irreverent house, here a is link to The House of Fools and the The House of Alchemy. The former is rather sillier than we could ever hope to be and a the latter has the best drinks you'll ever have the chance to consume (or use to light your fire as the case might be). Both these houses, and my own, are bound into a larger association known as the Counsel of Households. I have lost count of how many are now involved, but together we are outragously large (made the Treasure Hunt at Seadog Nights '02 miserably easy).
