<br />
The '''Barony of Stormhold''' is a [[SCA]] [[groups|branch]] in the [[Kingdom of Lochac]]. It covers central, western and northern [[Melbourne]], [[Australia]] plus Western Victoria, being the oldest group in the state. The [[Barony]] has one [[Canton]]. The [[Canton of Caern Fail]] covers Ballarat, Bendigo, the Golden Triangle and the Surf Coast. The [[College of St Bartholomew]] is based at the [[University]] of Melbourne. The [[Shire of Arrowsreach]] and the [[Shire of Krae Glas]] were formerly cantons of the barony. The [[Canton of Dubh Thrain]] is now disbanded.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
<br />
The first Baron and Baroness of Stormhold were Styvyn Longshanks and Rhyllian of Starfire Retreat. Their reign was interrupted when Styvyn and Rhyllian won the Lochac [[Coronet tournament]], and became [[Prince]] and [[Princess]] of Lochac in [[A.S. XXIV]].<br />

An interesting note is that until Rodrigo and Sara, none of the Barons and Baronesses, except for Gwynfor and Theresa, were native Melbournians. Styvren was born in [[New Zealand]], Rhyllian is a native of Mildura, Alain was raised near Sheparton, Sven and Lucrezia were from Adelaide, Ingibjorg was from Canberra, as was Hugh, and Rudolf, Nicolette and Gwir are all [[America]]n. From an SCA standpoint, Rodrigo, Sara, Styvren, Alain, Gwynfor and Theresa started in the SCA in Stormhold, Rhyllian in the [[Shire of Quimera de Oro]] (Mildura, Victoria), Sven and Ingibjorg in the Shire/Barony of Innilgard (Adelaide, South Australia), Rudolf and Nicolette in the [[Barony of Ynys Fawr]] (Hobart, Tasmania), Gwir in the [[Barony of Settmour Swamp]] (New Jersey, USA) and Hugh in Politarchopolis (Canberra, ACT). Of the [[Vicar]]s, Morgan started in Stormhold and Mirriam in [[Innilgard]]. Alain, Nicolette and Gwynfor served as [[Seneschal]] of Stormhold at various times, as did Morgan.<br />
