[MR] Question about fighters & unpassed heraldry

[Cindy Jenkins]

Being a fighter as well, back when rocks were almost dry.... When I first
started playing. I wore the colors of the Barony and used a baronial shield
until my own device past.

And wearing the colors of the Barony isn't all bad, you can recreate a
lineage in the tabard that you wear if you kick some serious ...umm.
enemies..... that you could pass down to the newest young fighter
that came along.

Good luck!
