Sir Mystic and Marika
Southwest Master/Slave 2012
Sir Mystic and Marika entered into the leather community not long after she turned 18. Both of them quickly found education and fellowship on their journey they had never before experienced. Not ones to sit on the side lines for long they jumped into the community with everything they had. Being community oriented individuals they were soon volunteering for every group and planning committee they could help out with. This led to working closely with many different groups in their area including New Mexico Leather League, NM-TNG, and others in the New Mexico area. Sir Mystic and Marika helped start the Santa Fe Munch and Rio Grande MAsT.
Since moving to Phoenix they have become active members of TNG-AZ, APEX, and Kinky and Geeky AZ. Marika has been on the board of TNG-AZ, with Mystic supporting her by helping as he can. They both serve on the board of Kinky and Geeky AZ in advisory roles.
