Activities

From 1982 to 1992 Martindale was one of the leaders of the Silver Sisterhood group based in Burtonport, County Donegal in Ireland. That group is known for creating early text adventure video games such as ''Bugsy'' and ''Jack the Ripper'', the first game to be given an '18' rating. Martindale co-founded the Wildfire Club publishing house and edited a collection of stories titled ''Disciplined Ladies''. From 2003 to 2005, Martindale wrote the Ladies' Column in '' The Chap'' magazine and was Aristasia's media representative. She discontinued this in accordance with the ''Bridgehead Doctrine'', which discouraged Aristasians from publicly commenting on "foreign" (i.e. Earth) culture and politics.


Beliefs

Martindale received national attention in the British press in the 1990s for her advocacy of corporal punishment. Martindale's recorded statements and interviews made clear her belief in discipline as spiritual and purifying. Martindale always maintained that, as an Aristasian, she was neutral on matters of "Tellurian" (i.e. Earth) politics. Martindale is a royalist and imperialist, but with loyalty only to the Aristasian monarchy and empire.


Personal life

Martindale was convicted of assault in 1993 for the caning of a young woman at St Bride's, the residence of the Silver Sisterhood. Martindale was featured in a 2022 BBC Radio Ulster podcast about St Brides, in which she describes herself as working currently as a marriage therapist in California and having adopted an adult son and two of his friends.
