Yes and yes. There was some sentiment to the effect that he should be
given the benefit of the doubt. I forget who actually won that
tourney, finally.

I believe the seneschal of each kingdom is required to do a
membership check on the tourney winner and consort; it would almost
certainly have been detected eventually.

>Which Kingdom is Lucan from/in?

Lucan has ruled several times in the East and, once, I think, in
Aethelmearc, IIRC. Stefan, Lucan and Jana were on the thrones of the
East a year ago, when you were at East Kingdom Twelfth Night.
