REJECTED SUBMISSIONS BY KINGDOM
Kingdom of Ansteorra
Tanasan Dimrithil. Sable, a bend argent, overall a Bowen's knot saltire-wise counterchanged.
This conflicts with Adington: Sable, a bend argent. The counterchanging
leaves the lines of the bend intact, thereby leaving the bend
as the major charge, so there is only one point of difference.
Kingdom of Atenveldt
Constantine Peradan. Sable, a garden rose slipped and leaved argent.
This conflicts with Corwyn of Amber, Argent, a garden rose slipped
and leaved sable, from Roger Zelazny's Amber series.
Irminsul the Improbable. Per pale embattled Or and gules, to dexter a winged unicorn rampant and to sinister in pale three of the same, counterchanged.
The device is fine, but the Irminsul is a famous thing, and cannot
be used as a given name, unless she can provide documentation
showing that it was used as a given name in our period.
Kingdom of the West
Meghan Shandygaff. Vert, a fret argent, overall a pewter
tankard proper, within a bordure Or. Your device is acceptable,
but the word shandygaff was coined in 1853, and is thus out of
period. Please choose a different surname.
End of Acceptances and Rejections.
Pray believe, my Lords and my Ladies, that I remain
Your Servant,
