Gypsie Skripto is a Discordian known primarily for her artwork and for interviewing Gregory Hill for the Loompanics edition of Principia Discordia. Gypsie is high priestess of a pagan coven.
Personal life
Gypsie was born in America in the early 1960s. Her father worked as a roadie for various rock and pop singers and groups in the 1960s and 1970s, while her mother was a self-described groupie. Her father later worked in musical electronics, and helped develop a type of synthesizer.
Her parents were friends with Gregory and Jeanetta Hill, and to a lesser extent Kerry and Cara Thornley. Greg gave the girl the Discordian name of Porky Pigsties which combined her loves of the cartoon character Porky Pig and of playing in mud.
She and her parents were at the 1969 Woodstock concert along with Michael Arthur Quinn, the model for the character of The Midget who appears in The Illuminatus! Trilogy and Schrödinger's Cat Trilogy.
She has a sother and also a sister born many years after her.
Gypsie has been highly successful as a seller of Avon cosmetics. Her animal companions include several cats and birds.

In late 2011, she became high priestess and her sother high priest of the smaller coven.
The coven follows the Wheel of the Year, and has many of its ceremonies while skyclad. They limit membership to a maximum of 13 full members, but do have junior members and members emeritus.
While not all members are Discordians, some are and several Discordians have been visitors. These include Princess Unicornia, Fairy Princess Yoshikyoko, Brenton Clutterbuck, Pope Leo, Miley Spears, Perlie the Pony Girl, and Sister Creamy.
