A request for arms

[Renalt da Fhamul]

What is your name? Renalt da Fhamul
What is your request? If it so please the Squirrel King of Arms, I request the assistance of the College in designing and obtaining arms for myself and my lawful heirs.
What is your favourite colour? Blue

[Dr. Txec dal Nordselvă]

Azul estimat S:reu da Fhamul,

While we wait on confirmation from the Squirrel King on confirming your request (and before I can officially assign the project), is there a specific style or idea you have? I would suggest for your information, the links posted by my predecessor as Dean here: talossa.proboards.com/post/61018.

Is there a way to incorporate a crescent moon into the design? Mabye a blue crescent moon with a green background. Just ideas.

[M.T. Patritz da Biondeu]

Just so you can see an example with a crescent moon... look at m Coat of Arms.

[Renalt da Fhamul]

That is basically what I was thinking, just the moon is tilted with the points pointing to the right and a different colour scheme. Mabye something else in there too.

[M.T. Patritz da Biondeu]

Lots of options! I'll be keeping an eye on it. Another moon in the crowd!

[Renalt da Fhamul]

I was thinking that I would not have a star with the crescent moon and instead have a different symbol.

[Dr. Txec dal Nordselvă]

Estimat S:reu da Fhamul,

Your Arms (once granted by Sieu Maxhestà) are yours and you will have to live with them for your lifetime (and the lifetime of your heirs). Make sure to choose wisely! Don't let anyone influence you on this, beyond the rules of heraldry!

I thought long and hard on what I want for my coat of arms, and I have decided on having a green background and a blue Star of David ( I am a Jew) in the centre. Besides that I have no idea.

[Dr. Txec dal Nordselvă]

Estimat Renalt,

That sounds like a good start. I am going to jump the gun and assign this project to myself, the Kingsbridge Pursuivant. I will work up an example soon! I can't officially complete the project until The Squirrel King of Arms (or his regent Sir C. M. Siervicül) officially accepts it, but that won't keep me from working on it.

Regards,
- Kingsbridge

Unfortunately, under the rules of heraldry, I cannot place an azure star on top of a vert background (no color on color). I will make a mockup of a vert (green) background with an argent (a metal) star on top to start off.

Azul Renalt,

As Squirrel Viceroy of Arms, I am pleased to accept your request for assistance in designing arms. I now charge the Kingsbridge Pursuivant, Dean of the College, Dr. Txec dal Nordselvă, with assigning one of the Fellows of the College to provide that assistance.

True. Other options are to fimbriate the star or to but the star on top of an ordinary (like a pale or a fess).
