Greetings from Garnet and Cornelian,
We would very much like to thank those who commented on these items: Aryanhwy merch Catmael, The Heronter Heralds Commenting Group, and Myfanwy ferch Rhiannon!
The items accepted on this letter have been forwarded to Laurel for further consideration, where we anticipate they will be decided on in April of 2007.
1. Alianor de
Ravenglas – New Device Returned
Argent, a bend azure
between two ravens sable.
This conflicts with Honor
of Restormel, Argent, a bend azure between two lozenges sable (11/1997 via Drachenwald) and with Rakel
Hrafnsdottir, Argent, on a bend azure between two ravens sable
three oak
trees argent (5/2005 via Æthelmearc).
2. Alicia Hennenberg – New Device (kingdom level resub) Accepted
Per pale sable and
vert, two peacocks pavonated addorsed argent.
3. Artán Becc – New Name Accepted with change, New Device Returned
Gyronny purpure and
sable, two griffins in bend rampant within a bordure argent.
Submitted to kingdom
as <Bécc>, the byname was changed at kingdom to
<Becc>, as none of
the supporting documentation we found included an accent over the
vowel. The
submitter allows minor changes.
The arms violate RfS
VIII.2.b.iv " Elements evenly divided into multiple parts of two
different
tinctures must have good contrast between their parts."
Since field
divisions of two or four parts with simple lines of division do not
require
good contrast, the Heronter Heralds suggest Quarterly purpure and
sable, in
bend two griffins segreant within a bordure argent as a possible
resubmission.
4. Connor
M’Eleam – Change of Device Accepted
Per fess dovetailed
azure and argent, in pale two greyhounds courant argent collared Or,
and a
portcullis sable.
5. Helena Lyncoln – New
Name Returned
The name conflicts with
<Elena of Lincoln> (01/1993 via the West).
6. Isabele of Dunbar – New
Name Accepted
7. Nikolai Bearslayer
– New NameAccepted, New Device Returned
Azure, on a pale
between two bears combattant argent, two swords inverted in saltire
crossed
with a spear palewise sable.
This conflicts with Angrim
the Unreasonable, "Azure, on a pale between two bears combattant each
maintaining a battle axe argent a tower azure" (10/2000 via Artemisia).
The registerability of the
byname as a Lingua Anglica translation of <Medvednikov> was
viewed as
questionable among commenters. After further consultation with the
submitter,
he has agreed to allow <Medvednikov> as a “second choice” byname.
8. Rashid al-Tayyib – New Device (kingdom level resub) Accepted with blazon
change
Argent, two gophers
courant contourny and a gopher courant proper.
9. Uesugi Kutarou
Ietoyo – New Name Accepted, New Device
Accepted
Vert, three
dragonflies in pall inverted tails to center argent.
This name
appeared on our previous
ILoI AE99 dated October 1, 2006 and was pended on LoR AE99 dated
November 22,
2006 to allow for clarification and correction of his preferred device
design.
His previous device design
of Vert, three dragonflies argent was erroneously published at
kingdom
on Æthelmearc ILoI AE99 and subsequently withdrawn at kingdom and
replaced with
this design on Æthelmearc ILoI AE100.
10. Veronica
d'Artusio – New Name Accepted
This
concludes our Letter of Report Æ 100 dated December 20, 2006.
