household within the Kingdom of Ostgard, a part of the Empire of Chivalry and
Steel. The Empire of Chivalry and Steel (ECS) is a non profit historical studies
organization that attempts to research and simulate the culture and activities of the
European Middle Ages and Renaissance (approx. 800 A. D. to 1650 A. D.). As we
are brand new, this site at the moment is rather bare. We hope to
remedy that in the near future, so please check back often for updates.
would anyone name a household after it?", here's the explanation. You see, popinjay
is the period term for parrot, and we (Duncan, the prospective Lord of our house,
and I) have a Quaker and a Sun Conure that both laugh (listening to them do this is
guaranteed to make anyone's day just a little brighter), hence the name. Hopefully,
our household will be able to have the same effect on people as the parrots do.
