Christian Darmody. Badge. Paly bendy sinister azure and argent, a cross flory within an orle Or.

The precedent disallowing the use of the field of Bavaria (Lozengy bendwise azure and argent) of the LoAR of 17 January 1984, p. 9, appears to have been based on the use of the field by corporations in Bavaria "as a sign of the fact that they were in Bavaria". It does not seem to me that this is sufficient grounds for a restriction on the use of this field similar to that of, say, France Ancient, which is so closely associated with the French ruling house. I am therefore withdrawing the restriction on the use of a field lozengy bendwise or lozengy bendwise sinister argent and azure, so long as there is otherwise sufficient difference from Bavaria.

This device barely avoids having to be returned for the use of two similar but different charges in the same group. It would be helpful if the client would draw the mermaid larger.

Malachy O'Caoimh. Name and device. Sable, a reef knot bendwise sinister throughout Or between two snakes in annulo argent.

We would have preferred to see some documentation that knots throughout are a Period style, but since none of the commenters mentioned any problems with this we did not feel comfortable returning it for modern style at this time.

Sean Angus MacNab. Blazon correction. Azure, a saltire ermine, overall a sea-lion within a bordure wavy Or.

When this was registered, the overall charge was blazoned as a "sea-dog" in error. The overall charge is clearly a "sea-lion".

Submitted as Eoghan Fionn MacDubhsidhe. The name has been modified to correct the grammar to match the documented form. On the device, the bird is probably just identifiable enough, but this is probably the absolute limit for counterchanging a complex charge over a complex line of division.

Eric Brehattin. Name and device. Gules, semy of butterflies Or.

Versus Scleros (Woodward, p. 91), Gules, semy of bees volant Or, the majority of the commenters did not have a problem applying X.2 between butterflies and bees here.

THE FOLLOWING SUBMISSIONS HAVE BEEN RETURNED:

ANSTEORRA

Anna Mitrofavnova. Device. Purpure, a cat sejant within a bordure argent.

Conflict with Freydís ór Thelamörk, Purpure, a fox sejant within a bordure argent. There is one CD for the change to the type of primary, but X.2 does not apply here.

Culhwch ap Corwin. Name.

All of the documentation indicates that Culhwch is a unique, probably allegorical name. Since is not constructed of elements that appear in other names, we cannot even argue for it as a constructed name.

Cyndcyrn Conn Corr. Device. Sable, in fess two dragon's eyes Or.

The commentary was nearly unanimous that the charge of a "dragon's eye" is no longer acceptable for registration in the SCA.

Cyndcyrn Conn Corr. Badge. [Fieldless] A dragon's eye argent.

The commentary was nearly unanimous that the charge of a "dragon's eye" is no longer acceptable for registration in the SCA.

Cyndcyrn Conn Corr. Badge. [Fieldless] A dragon's eye Or.

The commentary was nearly unanimous that the charge of a "dragon's eye" is no longer acceptable for registration in the SCA.

Dana Mac an Ghabhann. Household name for House Mac an Ghabhann.

Conflict with Clan MacGowan, cited in the LoI. Mac an Ghabhann is merely the older form of MacGowan.

Dathi O' Cooney. Badge. [Fieldless] A roundel barry wavy vert and argent.

Conflict with Browning (Papworth, p. 56), Barry wavy vert and argent. The precedent cited in the LoI of the registration of the badge of Arval Benicoeur, [Fieldless] A fountain, does not apply here because this roundel does not have a independent heraldic existence the way a fountain does. Therefore, the ban on fieldless roundels as being presumptuous as a display of other armory applies.

Iain MacCrimmon. Badge for House Bittonmoor. [Fieldless] A dragon's head couped contourny argent.

Conflict with 12th/16th Royal Welsh Dragoons, [Fieldless] A dragon's head contourny argent. There is only one CD for fieldlessness.

Pepin Moroni. Device. Per pale lozengy Or and vert, and lozengy argent and purpure, a jester's bauble facing to dexter gules, faced argent.

In the return of November 1988, the LoAR noted that "No one could document a field divided of four colors per saltire, and it does not appear to be a Period practice." Using two completely different pairs of tinctures on opposite sides of the per pale line of division seems to go well beyond Period practice here as well. We need documentation that this many colors on a field is a Period style before we may register it.

Robin of Gilwell. Badge with Adelicia Gilwell. [Fieldless] A roundel barry wavy azure and Or.

Withdrawn by the submitters.

Sorcha ní Fhaoláin. Badge. [Fieldless] On a mullet of seven points within and conjoined to an annulet Or, a mullet of seven points vert.

Several commenters noted that the primary charge is effectively a mullet fimbriated and that under RfS VIII.3 a mullet of seven points is too complex a charge to fimbriate.

Sorcha ní Fhaoláin. Badge. [Fieldless] A roundel barry wavy vert and Or.

Conflict with Bray (Papworth, p. 54), Barry of six Or and vert. There is one CD for wavy versus plain. The precedent cited in the LoI of the registration of the badge of Arval Benicoeur, [Fieldless] A fountain, does not apply here because this roundel does not have a independent heraldic existence the way a fountain does. Therefore, the ban on fieldless roundels as being presumptuous of a disply of other armory applies.

ATENVELDT

Atenveldt, Kingdom of. Badge for Order of the Light of Atenveldt. Per pale aregent and azure, a sun in its glory and a bordure Or.

Conflict with Fridrikr Tomasson av Knusslig Hamm, Barry wavy argent and azure a sun within a bordure Or. There is one CD only for the change to the field.

Catriona á as Gaoth. Name.

The byname is both grammatically incorrect and nonsensical. "Catriona the out of the wind" does not make sense in any language we could think of.

Luisa of the Willows. Badge. Per bend purpure and gules, a sword Or.

Conflict with Mikael of Monmouthshire, Per pale azure and gules a sword inverted palewise throughout Or. There is one CD for the field but nothing for inversion for the long skinny charge or for the slight difference between throughout and nearly throughout.

Morgan ferch Cennyd. Badge. Sable, on a hawk's head erased argent a goutte de sang, all within an orle of wake knots conjoined argent.

The orle of wake knots conjoined falls under the ban on the use of knotwork in effect since at least July 1979.

Tanglewyst de Holloway. Device. Per bend sinister argent and purpure, two catamounts couchant bendwise sinister within a bordure counterchanged.

As noted in the prior return in the LoAR of January 1991, "The posture of the cats is not really blazonable, as they are not in any standard heraldic posture." While the resubmission here addresses the prior conflict, the first reason for return (the cat's posture) remains, as the cats here are in an identical posture.

Vincent McThomas. Device. Azure, an astrolabe argent and a ford proper.

As drawn in the large emblazon the primary is not really recognizable as an astrolabe. It has cutouts in it through which the field shows which are not found on a real astrolabe. Drawn correctly as an astrolabe, this conflicts with Eldham (Papworth, p. 1046), Azure, a plate, as cited in the LoI, with one CD for the addition of the ford, but nothing for the internal diapering of the primary (similar to the conflict between a moon in her plenitude and a plate).

ATLANTIA

Claudia DuBois. Device. Argent, a martlet gules, a bordure rayonny sable.

Conflict with Karena del Falco, Argent, a falcon close gules. There is a CD for the addition of the bordure, but after a comparison of the emblazons we did not feel that a CD could be granted for type only of bird.

Hidden Mountain, Barony of. Name for Order of the Argent Mountain.

Conflict with the Mountain Confederation per RfS V.2.

Hidden Mountain, Barony of. Name for Order of the Sanguine Mountain.

Conflict with the Mountain Confederation per RfS V.2.

Robert of Aroe. Device. Argent, a two tailed scorpion gules, a bordure sable.

Conflict with Raymond Crus Hummer, Argent, a lobster displayed gules. There is a CD for the addition of the bordure but the visual similarity between this scorpion and a lobster is too great to grant a second.

Thomas Michaelson of Gloucester. Device. Azure, in pale a dolphin embowed and a shark embowed to base contourny argent, a bordure wavy Or.

The use of two very similar but different charges in the same group here is not Period style and is in fact not registerable by prior Laurel precedent (see, e.g., LoAR of 30 April 1989, p. 6).

CAID

Eleonora van den Bogaerde. Device. Gules, on a bezant a panther passant dexter facing sable, spotted of various tinctures and incensed proper, a chief erminois.

Conflict with Leofua of Thornridge, Gules on a bezant a leopard leaping bendwise sinister, head to base sable. There is one CD for the addition of the chief but the change of posture only of the feline is insufficient for a second. (It was suggested at the Laurel meeting that she could clear this by making the roundel erminois [if she didn't mind having a cat on a furball].)

Etienne Pèlerin du Fauçoneau. Badge. [Fieldless] A flame azure.

Conflict with the logo of numerous natural gas distribution companies in the United States and Canada, [Fieldless] A flame azure.

Lughaid Cnuachd Dharaich mac Aonghuis Dhuibh. Device. Or, a raven reguardant sable statant atop a whelk fesswise reverse azure, in chief two crescents gules.

Conflict with Corbet (Papworth, p. 295), Or, a raven sable, as cited in the LoI. There is a CD for the addition of the crescents and whelk, but in the emblazon the whelk is not sufficiently large to allow us to count the whelk as a second primary, as requested in the LoI.

Madawc Seumus Caradawg. Badge. [Fieldless] A wyvern passant to sinister Or.

Conflict with Steffan of the Dragon's Lair, Per fess embattled azure and Or masoned sable, in chief a dragon passant to sinister Or, and with Beltran of the Mount, Vair, a wyvern volent to sinister Or, maintaining a pomme charged with three fountains. Versus Steffan there is a CD for fieldlessness, but nothing for position on the field or for the difference between a wyvern and a dragon. (This overturns the precedent of December 1989, which granted a CD between the two charges on the bases of SCA historical distinction. It appears that the terms "dragon" and "wyvern" were used interchangeably throughout Europe through most of our period of study, and this distinction in the SCA does not appear to be well founded.) Versus Beltran, there is one CD for fieldlessness, but the posture of the two monsters is identical and removal of the maintained charge is insufficient to count for difference.

Shinomoto Yoshinaga. Device. Argent, three torii, tops to center, within and conjoined to an annulet gules.

Conflict with Okawara and Kubota, A torii within an annulet, cited in the LoI, with a CD for number of the torii. The conjoining does not appear worth the necessary second as argued in the LoI.

CALONTIR

Ilya Yaroslavich Kyurakin. Name.

The correct form of the patronymic would appear to be Yaroslavovich instead of Yaroslavich, and no one could support this unusual spelling of Koryakin/Karyakin. Since the client allowed no changes to the name we are having to return it. A number of commenters had problems with the resemblance of this name to that of UNCLE agent Ilya N. Kuryakin, and it is entirely possible that even were the name grammatically correct that it would have to be returned for being obtrusively modern and "detrimental to the . . . enjoyment of its [the Society's] participants" (RfS I.2) because of that intrusiveness.

John Bromere. Device. Gules, on a chevron cotised argent between three lions passant guardant contourny Or, three hearts gules.

Conflict with Rawlet (Papworth, p. 507), Gules, on a chevron between two couplecloses argent, three lions rampant of the first. There is a CD for adding the secondary lions, but X.4.j.ii cannot apply for the change to type only of the tertiaries because of the two groups of secondaries in this proposal. (If the client would consider changing the number of hearts on the chevron to either two, four, or five, this would be clear.)

Sine ni Shranachain. Device. Per pale argent and Or, on a pile purpure a cat's head cabossed Or.

The "pile" is neither a pile (on the large emblazon it issues from the corners of the chief), nor is it a chausse field, nor is it a chief triangular. Please ask the client to redraw it. If she wants a pile, it should issue from somewhere much farther in on the chief and the point should extend until it nearly touches the base.

Thyri Haraldsdottir. Device. Sable, on a bend Or three bendlets gules, in sinister chief a lion's head erased.

The tincture of the lion's head was accidentally left out of the LoI. It is Or, and therefore this conflicts with Isack (Papworth, p. 201), Sable, a bend and in sinister chief a leopard's head Or. There is one CD for the addition of the tertiary bendlets.

Valens of Flatrock. Augmentation of device. Vert, a bend azure, fimbriated Or, between a tower argent and a castle Or, as an augmentation, On a canton purpure fimbriated a cross of Calatrava Or.

The statement in the LoI that "the fimbriation of only two sides of the canton follows the model of how we fimbriate chiefs" is entirely correct. We do not fimbriate chiefs, and we do not fimbriate cantons. There were several suggestions as to how this might be fixed. The simplest is to give the canton a bordure Or. This will maintain the simplicity of augmentation and correct the problem of fimbriation of a one-sided subordinary.

EAST

Elaine Compton of Wyngates. Device. Sable, a fleur-de-lys and on a chief Or three Tudor roses barbed vert.

The Tudor rose ("a rose argent and a rose gules, combined") is a prohibited charge as noted in the Glossary of Terms issued April 8, 1986, and may not be registered in the SCA. This prohibition has been in effect since at least 1976.

Helena du Brouillard de Matin. Badge. [Fieldless] On a sun argent an escallop inverted azure.

Conflict with Micheila nic Fhaionghuin of Skye, Azure, a sun argent eclipsed azure charged with a mullet voided argent. There is one CD for fieldlessness but since X.4.j.ii does not apply to tertiaries on suns, we cannot get the second for the change to type only of the tertiary.

Sigrid Einarsdottir. Device. Vert, a hand balance argent between five bezants in saltire.

Conflict with Myvod (Papworth, p. 1052), Vert, five bezants in saltire. The hand balance is not distinctively enough the primary charge that we can call this clear by X.1. There is one CD for the addition of the hand balance.

Ulfr Thunthar. Name and badge. [Fieldless] A woodaxe reversed argent.

The byname is incorrectly formed. It would appear that either "thunnt hár" or "thunnthár" would be correct, but as the client allowed no changes whatsoever, we are having to return this. The badge conflicts with Heyngeston (Papworth, p. 10), Azure, a battle axe Or, headed argent, the edge to sinister, and with Topor (Woodward, p. 3), Gules, a broad axe argent, the handle Or, the blade turned to sinister. In each case there is one CD for fieldlessness but nothing for the change in tincture of the handle only.

Wlfric of Dernehold. Device. Quarterly gules, crusily Latin argent, and vert, a goblet Or charged with three gouttes de sang.

This device conflicts with various "(Field), a cup Or", found in Papworth. There is one CD in each case for the changes to the field but the gouttes on the cup are much less significant even than the unblazoned jewels thereon. They can therefore not be counted for the second necessary CD.

Yasmin bint Shamli. Device. Sable, a jasmine flower slipped argent between three suns Or.

Conflict with 22nd SS Volunteer Division (Hateful Heraldry #25), Sable, a gillyflower slipped leaved and budded argent. There is one CD for the addition of the secondary. (If this is arrangement considered as a single group of primary charges in pall rather than a primary between three secondaries, it conflicts with Lux Andre of Altumbrea, Sable, semy of suns in splendor Or, with one CD for the change in number of the charges but nothing else for changing the type and tincture of only one of the charges in the group.

MERIDIES

Manfred von Schwarzwald. Name change from Manfred von dem Schwarzwald.

The Schwarzwald in German is not a generic "black wood", but is a specific and very well known place and requires the article. If we might suggest he could change the article von to vom, a contraction of von dem; a change we would have made had he allowed changes.

MIDDLE

Elayna Lilley. Device. Per bend sinister gules and vairy Or and gules, in dexter chief a fleur-de-lys Or.

Conflict with Metham (Papworth, p. 846), Quarterly azure and argent, in the first quarter a fleur-de-lys Or. There is one CD for the change to the field. Conflict also with the badge of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Elizabeth I, and James III of Scotland, A fleur-de-lys. There is one CD for fielded versus fielded, but nothing else for tincture or change of position on the field.

Ivan Kalinin. Device. Sable, an anchor between two cockatrices combattant Or.

Conflict with Harray (Renesse, Vol. IV, p. 201), Sable, an anchor Or. There is one CD for the addition of the secondary monsters.

Jararvellir, Barony of. Badge for Order of the Pisces. Sable, semy of seaweed, two fish naiant in annulo within a bordure Or.

The "semy" is not identifiable from its appearance as required by RfS VII.7.a.

Tobias Alan MacKenzie. Badge. Per fess azure and sable, an tree blasted and eradicated Or.

Conflict with Huette Aliza von und zu Ahrens und Mechthildberg, Vert, a tree blasted throughout Or, with Lambrinck (Renesse, vol. 4, p. 51), Azure, a tree blasted Or, and with Boys, (Papworth, p. 1113), Gules a tree of three branches eradicated Or. In each case, there is one CD for the change to the field.

OUTLANDS

Cala of Savatthi. Device. Gules, in pale a butterfly and a lotus flower in profile argent.

The "lotus flower", documented in the LoI from Chinese pottery, is not reproducible from the blazon. Those submitting heraldry should be reminded that period art styles are not necessarily registerable period heraldic styles. If the client would consider resubmitting with a standard heraldic lotus in profile, none of the commenters mentioned any conflicts.

Medhbh O'Duibhdabhoireann of Clontarf. Badge. [Fieldless] A reremouse argent.

Conflict with Komori Yamamoto (Hawley's Mon, p. 57), (Dark), a bat (light). There is one CD for fieldlessness, but tincture cannot count for the second.

Miriel d'Estoile. Badge. Per fess wavy azure and barry wavy argent and azure, in chief a compass star, a bordure argent.

Technical conflict with Alfric Northwind, Azure fretty, a compass star within a bordure argent. There is only one CD for the changes to the field.

Quen Gildwynsson. Name.

"'Cwen' is the standard Anglo Saxon title for Queen approved for use in the Society and was actually used in Old English in the specific sense of the rulers wife (and in at least one case in the sense of a Queen Regnant). Therefore, I must reaffirm the ban of 'quen' as an element in Society names." (Alisoun McCoul of Elphane, LoAR of 29 March 1987, pp. 13 and 14). Additionally Quen is a feminine given and could not be used in a mixed gender name (in other words, she cannot be Gildwyn's son).

THE FOLLOWING HAVE BEEN PENDED UNTIL THE SEPTEMBER 1992 LAUREL MEETING:

EAST

Wlfric of Derneford. Name.

Listed in the LoI as Wlfric of Dernehold, the client's forms all had "of Derneford". This is pended until the September meeting for commentary by the College.

MIDDLE

David mac Dougal mac Rori. Device. Argent, a melusine with tails to base and on a chief vert two pairs of escallops conjoined at the hinges fesswise argent.

The tincture of the tertiaries was missing from the LoI. This is being pended so it can be adequately checked for conflict.

"Midnight at the Oasis, Send your camel to bed."
