Hmmm... true on the proper. So let's try that. Unless we know of anything else to symbolize dance.

The Heraldric term "Dance" means a zigzag line...

Good idea, Sir Mick! Denver's city flag has a dance on it. It's like a fess, only zigzags.
When the field is divided evenly between a colour and a metal, any tincture is OK on it as long as the charge is big enough that it gets contrast from one of the field tinctures. But a field in something like ermine, say, that's mostly white, can't have a metal directly on it.
For purposes of the tincture rule, "proper" things that are dark-coloured are treated as colours, and light-coloured are treated as metals. So Argent a moose proper wouldn't be a violation, nor would Sable a gull proper.

So per dance sable and gules Saint Vitus <doing something> proper? Or since the zigzaggy line is a dance, are we dropping Vitus?
