My name is Chris. I'm a an artist, a living history actor, a volunteer haunt actor for Preston Castle, and a Brand Ambassador for TheBeardStruggle.

I am a proud Norse Pagan, and part of the leadership team for Northern American Nordic Society. You can find all links in my Linktree listed at the end of this post.

I like movies, reading, music, and art. I'm very passionate about creating things. I like trying new things, and always have something going on.

Most of my work is one of a kind. I like to collaborate with my friends quite a bit, and enjoy many hobbies. Maybe one day I can make a living from the things I create. 🙃

The watermarks say "Dagaz Studios" because I couldn't use Dagaz Studio for Etsy. 🙃

All Hallows was an awesome event with my guild, St. Margaret's (living history reenactment) The court chose a theme to be a Ministry of Viziers. Everyone dressed up in their best fantastical and magical outfits, and I took the opportunity to don my Loki outfit. It had been a long time since I had the chance to wear him, and it felt so good to be the God of Sass, Class, and Mischief. The event involved trick or treaters, and one little boy dragged his parents over to our encampment, practically screaming "I wanna see Loki, there's Loki" he was all dressed up in Spider-Man avengers clothes and was just ecstatic. He told me all about my actions, and Hel, and my brother Thor. I live for those moments. Even though I'm not portraying Marvel Loki, it's amazing to see kids just light up. Well, the horns are usually a dead giveaway...

Anyways, I signed up for a costume contest that evening, in the Master's Category. I've never entered a contest, mostly because I never feel I'm skilled enough. I made two friends, which helped with my anxiety. I was the first to go up, so I was holyshitting with anxiety.

Not only did I get a huge welcome when I came on stage, but the judges were incredibly impressed with my work. When I took off my cloak and showed the bindrune I painted on the back, everyone seemed to be even more ecstatic.

One judge saw my Mjölnir and was all impressed that I had carved it myself. I told him it wasn't part of the costume, but of my faith.

I had gotten second place and my dingus self was all "Wait, what? Oh that's me!" After the applause, just sort of stood there like a dork, and exclaimed (without realizing there was a moment of silence) "I never won anything in my life"

And there was an "aww" from the first row and judges, as I scurried away with my trophy.

That night my guild members and I celebrated my win and the next day I was voluntold to aid in a trial at the Queen's court. Which I did, causing quite a stir and some blasphemy. The trial ended well, And I flirted with the Queen as she gave me a favour. But not a clover to make a request at her court in the future. Darn.

Now for some photos and stuff! (Finally)

Oh, I was also awarded an unofficial official title of Aaron non Grata. Because of shenanigans.

I made these adorkable Derpy Cats, mostly with the hope that I could vend at local craft events. I've been struggling with injuries, and just can't do anything until there's a resolution on what to do next.

I have not been working since 2020, and have exhausted ALL of my financial resources. I'll be doing my best to upload my handmade items as quickly as possible.

All Derpy Cats are $20, including shipping within the USA. I will have to look up shipping estimates for you wonderful international gentle persons. They are approximately 12"x 5".

I was reading about the Wild Hunt and how apparently, Odin Allfather was a typical father in that he refused to ask for directions during his annual Yule ride through the night sky, and instead of turning his fun, flying sleigh around or taking a slightly different route, he’d just plow on through the same route he always took, regardless of who or what was in his way. 

And if your house or land WAS in his way, he STILL wouldn’t reroute. He’d just burn the house down instead.

Which is THE funniest thing I have read in years. And it just got funnier when I pictured the whole thing turning into a buddy road trip with Loki and Odin and Sleipnir, and voila, a wild comic appeared.

It's been a while since I've sewn things. I now have cat versions! (I have derp bunnies) I drafted a very simple pattern, used left over fabric, and raided the hoard of buttons we all share for the eyes.

These are the current finished ones. I have quite a few more to stuff. (And some left over derp bunnies)

Work in progress. I had to roll the wire tube by hand because I don't have a draw plate. 😅😐

The Beard Struggle is my favourite brand for beard care. They're products are high-quality and well worth the investment. Their products are cruelty free and use organic products. They also donate to cancer research, and have a strong commitment to their clients and ambassadors. They also have amazing and comical commercials!

www.thebeardstruggle.com

My favourite products to use are the Day and Night elixers. Day Time to protect my beard from sun damage from UV rays, and Night Time to hydrate while I sleep.

I use the beard wash and conditioner to keep my beard healthy and clean. It also helps curb the beard itch and beard dander by hydrating the skin and cleaning out pollutants from the day. The conditioner softens and hydrates the hairs, making them healthy and stronger.

There are a lot of new products and merch that just dropped. New scents and cologne too! Treat yourself, add CIIMOORE15 at check out for 15% off your order.
