Azul,
What think the College about designing arms/seals/whatever for the Lord President and the Speaker of the Cosa?

Azul, The College of Arms stands ever ready to help the Lord President, the Speaker of the Cosa and the Minister of Justice design both arms and seals. As Dean of the College of Arms, I suggest that we start by designing personal arms for each of the Kingdom's citizens you mentioned. Official Arms (those connected to an office) should be designed next. Then, the arms of each citizen can be displayed as an escutcheon of pretense on the official arms. Cromwell's arms from when he was Lord Protector are a good example of an escutcheon of pretense. Here are his family arms as granted to his father: When Cromwell assumed the role of Lord Protector, his family arms were displayed on top of the arms of England, Scotland and Ireland: Please contact me directly and we can get started with your coat of arms. -- Jaune Sabre Note: This writer holds no brief for Oliver Cromwell, believing him a tyrannical dictator who failed to separate his selfish ambitions from the freedoms he promised. Even by the standards of the times he was a butcher. But he did use the escutcheon of pretense correctly.
