Blessed Herman the Cripple was a mathematician, musician and monk. He was considered to be a genius, yet his parents gave him to the church as a child because he was so horribly crippled and was therefore no use for working in the fields.

The SCA College of Blessed Herman the Cripple (Adelaide University) is located in the Barony of Innilgard (Adelaide). It is the first college in Lochac and one of the first groups established in Lochac with a very old and rich history. The college has played a large part in the Inter-College Wars, both as a host and regularly the victor. Often known as "the Friendly College", their mascot is Fred, the Fire Breathing Goat of Doom.
