12. Brian of Leichester -- Per fess sable and argent, in chief a house and in base 3 roundels counterchanged.
This would be the first registration of a house. This should be documented per AH IV.C.2. However the following precedent should also be noted.
[registering a domed mosque of one minaret] A question of
reproducibility was raised in commentary in regards to this submission.
Of particular relevance to this case are period heraldic depictions of
buildings. There are, particularly in Continental heraldry, many coats
incorporating everything from individual buildings up to entire cities.
Even a casual examination of multiple sources will show that there was
little regularity in depiction. The blazon for such charges is
characteristically vague: "a church" or "a city". Clearly any variation
in depiction is a matter of artistry, not heraldry.
In this case, anyone viewing the emblazon will recognize the charge as
a mosque. A competent heraldic artist may not produce this particular
mosque, but will presumably produce a drawing which, again, the viewers
will recognize. This situation is no different from period heraldic
depictions of churches.
This is a change to our normal policy of having the first registration
of a charge not documented as having been used in period heraldry be
the defining example of the charge. In this specific case, since the
period usage of buildings varied so widely, we are comfortable with not
having a defining example. ('Afra' bint Tamir al-Sahrahwayyiah, 5/98 p.

Precedents - Jaelle, under Architecture
The precedent implies that the only question is whether this is a reasonable depiction of a period house.
The way that the windows don't line up on the door's level implies that this isn't a simple one story cot, but they aren't arranged the way that a two story house's windows would be either.

Society for Creative Anachronism - August of 1979 (via the
West):(Tinctureless) A secretary-bird sejant regardant. [Sagittarius
sepentarius]
for Privy Clerk to Morsulus Herald
Single CD for fieldless.
The secretary-bird isn't a period type of heraldic bird and doesn't have any well known distinguishing attributes. Therefore, it must be considered a generic bird because it fails to meet the listed criteria.
I hate this seal. The secretary-bird does not appear in the pic-dic or any any precedents since it's original registration at the great heraldicon, "the source of many of the most solecistic items we see in the Armorial today." (LoAR 05/98, Dálkr Hálftroll Snjolfsson R-Atlantia) This would NOT be registerable today. When I asked him at Pennsic XXX in reference to a similar conflict call, Morsulus stated that he didn't have a privy clerk and didn't know what it looked like. If this seal isn't being used, I feel that it should be released, freeing up space for dozens of pieces of simple armory. At the very least, I would like to see some kind of blanket permission to conflict given so that this obscure piece of heraldic history doesn't waste as much space.
Otherwise clear.
16. Dafydd MacNab -- Per fess embattled Or and vert, a tent vert and a dragon segreant Or armed and langued gules.
The tent isn't identifiable. It doesn't look like any type of period pavilion that I'm familiar with. There is no evidence of any supporting poles or ropes. The top should be a peak or ridge, not a dome. It looks like a helmet to me.
