Mike's the name.
Viking by nature.
I'm Mike or "RealMikeTheVike". I make Star Citizen content, run the Cardiff Bar Citizen community, and spend my weekends in the Viking Age.

About Mike
Coworkers started calling me "Mike the Vike" because I reenact the Viking Age. The name stuck – so I made it my brand. One week I'm hauling salvage across Stanton, the next I'm holding a shield wall in a castle courtyard.
Star Citizen creator
Gameplay, news and community coverage – streams, Shorts and long-form from a player who's in it every week.
Viking Age reenactor

Cardiff Bar Citizen
I organise Cardiff Bar Citizen alongside Jump Point Network(JPN) – bringing Star Citizen players in South Wales together for a pint, a chat and plenty of ship arguments.
