View source for Triple peer

Until 2015, a '''Triple Peer''' was a person who had been raised to all three [[peer|Great Orders of Peerage]] in the [[SCA]]; that is, they were members of the [[Order of Chivalry]], the [[Order of the Pelican]] and the [[Order of the Laurel]].  Triple peers are extremely rare, as they must have demonstrated not only [[martial]] prowess (the Chivalry), exemplary [[service]] to the [[Society]] (the Pelicans), and excellence in [[arts and sciences]] (the Laurels).  With the addition of the [[Order of Defence]], a triple peer, logically, is one who is a member of three out of the four orders.  Someone who is a member of all four would be a [[quadruple peer]].

You may hear or see a triple peer being referred to as ''[[Master]] Master [[Sir]] [[SCA name|NAME]]'' or ''[[Mistress]] Mistress [[Sir]] NAME''.  (See [[title stacking]])
