Kings and Heraldry
Oct. 1st, 2017 04:56 pmTaking a small break from painting teeny tiny coats of arms on the lineage scroll (it's a new experience to do painting through a magnifying glass). Thought I would share some random Heraldic trivia I have collected because of this project.
Of the 40 reigns that are represented on this scroll, 19 are Ducal or more reigns
Of the 21 men that have sat the Sylvan Throne, 14 of them have critters on their arms.
The colors preferences on the arms (in ascending order) are:
Blue = 3
Green = 3
Purple = 3
Red = 6
Yellow = 10
Black = 16
White = 17
The charges represented (in ascending order) but not distinguished by style/type are:
Augmentation = 1 (only one has registered their augmentation)
Crescent = 1
Dragon = 1
Stars = 1
Swan = 1
Horse = 1
Lance = 1
Castle = 1
Rabbit = 1
Fleur de Lys = 1
Pile = 1
Rose = 1
Saltire = 1
Squirrel = 1
Acorn = 1
Bend = 1
Pale = 1
Canine = 2
Stag = 2
Bear = 2
Chevron = 2
Border = 3
Feline = 3
Cross = 4
Field Divisions (in ascending order) are:
Quarterly = 1
Per Fess = 2
Per Pale = 2
Per Bend = 2
Per Chevron = 4
None = 8
And we have had 1 sit the Throne with no registered Arms.
