Raven's Corner of Madness & Musings

Argent, a tower gules within a laurel wreath, on a chief sable three towers argent. Huh? Heraldry can often sound like a foreign language, but can be fun once you get the swing of things. I'll be posting name & device updates, research that I find interesting, helpful guides, and other fun bits that I come across. Want a name and device to call your very own? We can make that happen.

The importance of heraldry on the field....

Perfect example of the importance of heraldry on the field.  The first event that I took Giovanna to (after having to practically drag her out of the car in her garb haha), we arrived after the day had been up and running for a while. Once we got within site of the field, I could easily spot Val's black anchor shield on the other side of the field and headed that way. After asking me how I saw him from so far away, I pointed out his shield and she immediately recognized his device.  Fighters, help us find you so that we can cheer you on....or know which way to head to funnel water down your gullets when you forget to take care of yourselves.

    Hello!!! I'm Maddelena de Ricci, but you can call me Raven. I'm the groups local herald and still very much  'green', but am always trying to better my skills. Still trying to get my footing, but always up for questions. If I don't know the answer, I will hunt it down for you.
