ÆTHELMEARC COLLEGE OF HERALDS - commentary archive
Letter of Intent #96
Aryanhwy merch Catmael

Greetings!

Here are my comments on this [I]LoI.

1.  Arnþóra GrÃmarskona - Good name!

The chief is _invected_, not _engrailed_.  The use of the pawprints is a weirdness, but that is the only one.  I found no conflicts.

2.  Calylvorr Ine Skylycorne - Tangwystyl's article also lists <Calyvorri> as one of the lesser common names, so this looks good.

This is clear of Grifphon Shadow, Shire of (reg. 01/1997 via Meridies), "Per pale argent and sable, two griffins combatant  each maintaining a chalice and a laurel wreath counterchanged," with one CD for the number of primaries, and another for their posture.

3.  Duncan von Halstern - The combination of Scots and German is a weirdness.  I haven't been able to find other docs for <Halstern>.

4. Gaston de Barre - This is clear of Tristan Alexander (reg. 11/ 2001 via Atlantia), "Azure, a mertyger erect to sinister and a  bordure argent," with one CD for the orientation, and another for the field.  It's clear of Baras Bayan (reg. 05/1996 via Meridies), "Per pale gules and sable, a bicorporate tyger argent,  a chief rayonny Or," with one CD for the type and one for the tincture of the peripheral.

5.  GrÃmarr Bjarnarson  - The head is also "marked sable", to the point where it begins to fade into the field.

The name looks fine.  I found no conflicts.

6.  Skalla-Valgarðr Gunnarsson - It should be noted that his name was registered 04/2001.  'Volant' should not be capitalized.

That was quick and easy!
