[MR] HERALDRY -- Kingdom Acceptances for May 2001

[Robert J Welenc]

Unto the Crown, Heralds, and Populace of Atlantia, greetings from
Lady Alanna Volchevo Lesa, Golden Dolphin Herald!

The following submissions were tentatively accepted  for May 2001 and
forwarded to Laurel Queen of Arms:

Anna Ridley. 	Device change resubmission.	
Azure, a winged fish volant bendwise argent, a bordure compony vert
and argent. 

Caer Gelynniog, College of. 	Device resubmission.	
Purpure, on a tower argent a laurel wreath vert, on a chief argent
three apples vert.

Ciar ingen Irial. 	Name and device.  
Per pale gules and sable, a unicorn rampant argent, overall a fess
Or.

Dante di Pietro. 	Name.	
Unfortunately the documentation doesn't justify "Pietra" as a name —
"Maestri di Pietra e Legname" is translated immediately after the
citation; it means " Masters of the Stone and Woodworkers [Guild]",
not "Master Peter of the Woodworkers".  We have therefore substituted
Pietro as the nearest documentable equivalent.

Daria of Stierbach. 	Device change.
Per chevron inverted sable and vert semy-de-lys Or, in chief a bull's
head jessant-de- lys Or. 

Giovinna Mancuso. 	Device.
Per bend argent and purpure, a stalk of three gillyflowers purpure
slipped vert and a decrescent argent.	

Guillaume de Bracy. 	Name and device. 
Counter-ermine, a caltrop and a bordure embattled argent.

Nikulai Ivanovich. 	Device change.
Or, on a bend cotised sable, three fox masks palewise Or.

{O'}l{a'}fr {U'}lfbrandsson. 	Name. (See Returns for device.)

Ranald de Balinhard. 	Name and device
Azure, in pale three ferrets courant argent. 

Rowen the Shiftless.	Device.
Per bend sinister Or and gules semy-de-lys Or, in dexter chief a
leopard's head erased sable. 

Steffan von Kiel. 	Name. 
We were unable to document ‘Stefan' with only one ‘f' in German.  Of
the two documentable choices, ‘Steffan' and ‘Stephan', we have
substituted the one that makes the least amount of change.

Thrandr Surtr. 	Name.	

Tirloch of Tallaght. 	Badge	
(Fieldless) A bear passant bendwise sable.
