Don St Hilaire, Children's Trilogy of Games
Lord Demetrius Gawain

My character is Lord Demetrius Gawain, Third cousin to the King of France & Heir to the land of Mount St. Hilaire. I am also Known as Aramis, for those who know of the legendary Musketeer know as D'Artagnan, that his diaries reveal that the name Aramis was given him by D'Aartagan to Protect his "real" identity. I started attending fest as a patron for a few years, and then by some strange twist of fate I was suddenly working as a volunteer at The Children's Trilogy of Games. and then by an even stranger twist the owner of Children's Trilogy, "Bob -the peasant," decided it was to much for him to run anymore so it was given to me, Tabitha, and another couple, who for a year ran and operated the game booth. By another twist, the couple we ran it with were unable to work at fest anymore. So for the Last 2 years It was me and Tabitha who Ran the game Booth. I am No longer with Tabitha anymore, but still did Manage the Children's Trilogy of Games for a couple of years after our split. Currently I am no longer Part of the Children's Trilogy of Games - But you can catch me in the street or in the Parade with the Blue Acrylic Sphere I Contact juggle with. On a personal note, I have two wonderful daughters: Vashti Marie & Genevieve Naoma from my first wife Tabitha & since have remarried to wonderful woman Named Sheri who used to work for "Stitch & Crochet". Sheri & I have now been blessed with another baby girl named Tirzah (born May 02, 2004). I also travel to other Small fests (Council Bluffs, Waterloo & Sioux Falls) and play Arimis along side the rest of the Musketeers

I joined MRF in 1998 as a part timer, now a full timer as of 2002. Areas worked include, games (Children's Trilogy), shop (Stitch & Crochet), and finally, the street character, Lady Hilaire. You can find me sitting under a tree stitching away, or entertaining and/or chasing after one (or all) of three cute children.

Started working fest in year 2002 I think it was? My character basically looks like Xena the Warrior Princess, but that is not who I meant to be. I am usually seen between walking Gypsy Stage and the Games section. In the real world I am a working student in the healthcare field.

I started festival in 1989, when I played a peasant street character and was also a member of the Hungry Hawkers. Since then, I have played various peasant and nobility characters, including Millicent, a noble-woman with roughly one brain cell and a voice I'm told is reminiscent of Mira Sorvino. Then, in 1994, I donned "the head" and became the unicorn from opening cannon through parade. After parade, I still play a street character. In 1998, I played a new character, Princess Amnesia Anastasia(that girl with the fork crown, thanks to some wonderful handiwork by Herb Lindorff), a ditzy and forgetful peasant convinced of her royal lineage. I've also performed in Phantom's Feast and Fezziwig's Feast for the past three years and I was in Victo for a few years before the Mega-mall killed it. In real life, I'm a technical writer with numerous extracurricular activities including tech theatre, singing, karate, swing dancing, writing, staying out too late on weeknights and, on occasion, sleeping. I live in Minneapolis with my house-mate and friend, Michael Ritchie(insane jester) and my dog Reilly (pointy queen of all).

I received the Unicorn Award in 1993. It is the only acknowledgment from the festival that I have been there other than my paycheck.
