Introduction
• Class parts– Introduction– Armory– Names
• The parts need not be taken in order• The parts are not prerequisites of one another
![Page 3: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Terminology
• Emblazon• The actual drawing of the device
• Blazon A verbal description of the device• Written in a special language derived from Norman French• Follows specific grammar and construction rules• Not important to get right on a submission
•We register the picture (emblazon), not the words (blazon)

Terminology
• Directions are from the point of view of the person holding the shield
Chief
Base
Dexter Sinister

Terminology
• Field – base “layer” of the device– Lines of division
• Charges – anything placed on the field (or on top of other charges)
• Tinctures– Colors– Metals
![Page 6: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Rules
• SENA– Standards for Evaluation of Names and Armory– Found at: http://heraldry.sca.org/laurel/sena.html– Current rules for all submissions– Broken into 4 main sections:• General Principles• Personal Names• Non-Personal Names• Armory
– Includes 13 appendices
![Page 7: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
7
Rules - Basics
• Reproducibility (A1C)– Given a written blazon, two different artists should
be able to draw very similar emblazons of the armory
– Armory must be describable in standard heraldic terms
![Page 8: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
8
Rules - Basics
• Recognizability (A1D)– Armor should lend itself to instant identification– Most of the period heraldic rules and styles arose
out of this need– The viewer should be able to immediately identify
the charges and arrangements
![Page 9: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
9
Rules - Basics
• Submissions should be reasonably period (GP1B1)– Period elements– Period combinations of the elements– “Core style” defines most common elements and
combinations– Individually attested patterns allow submissions
outside core style
![Page 10: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
10
Rules - Basics
• Core Style (A1A1)– Described in detail in A2 and A3– Not identical to the style of any specific place and
time– Based on the Anglo-Norman style– For the most part, doesn’t require documentation
![Page 11: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
11
Rules - Basics
• Individually Attested Patterns (A1A2)– Armory that doesn’t meet “Core Style”
requirements– Registerable if adequately documented– Described in detail in A4
![Page 12: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Ordinaries
• Ordinaries are charges• They are usually comprised of simple
geometric figures running from side to side or top to bottom of the field
• Ordinaries can be classified as central or peripheral

Charge Group Theory
• SCA invention – SENA Appendix I• A charge group is a group of charges of
approximately the same size and visual weight that act as a single visual unit
• Most of our style and conflict rules are built around charge groups
• “Core” style devices must be organizable into charge groups
![Page 29: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
29
Charge Group Theory
• Primary Charge Group– Always placed directly on the field– Placed in the visual center of the field– Usually the largest charge group– Not all devices have a primary charge group– A central ordinary is always the primary charge
group

Charge Group Theory
• Primary Charge Group– On a divided field with no central charge, the
charges on either side of the division are the primary charge group

41
Charge Group Theory
• Primary Charge Group– A peripheral ordinary (chief, base, bordure,
canton, orle, etc.) can never be a primary charge– If there are no charges, or only peripheral
ordinaries, the device is considered field-primary• Secondary Charge Group– Always placed directly on the field– Generally “surrounds” the primary charge group– Cannot have a secondary without a primary group
![Page 42: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

45
Charge Group Theory
• Tertiary Charge Group– Placed on another charge, not on the field– A single charge may only have one tertiary charge
group on it
![Page 46: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
46
Charge Group Theory
• Tertiary Charge Group - Ok
![Page 47: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

49
Charge Group Theory
• Overall Charge Group– Crosses the center of the field– Placed partially on the field and partially on other
charges– Underlying charge is the primary charge– Can only have one overall charge group in any device– In period, the overall charge is almost always a bend– Overall charge must be substantially on the field
![Page 50: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)

51
Charge Group Theory
• Overall Charge Group – “barely” overall - No
![Page 52: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
52
Charge Group Theory
• Maintained/Sustained charges– “Held” by another charge, usually a primary– Maintained charges are much smaller than the
primary charge• Considered artistic detail• Do not count for difference
– Sustained charges are more than ½ of the visual weight of the primary charge, but less that the total visual weight• Considered a secondary charge
![Page 53: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
53
Charge Group Theory
• Maintained/Sustained charges– Co-primary charge• “Held” charge has equal visual weight to the primary
charge• Considered part of the primary charge group
![Page 54: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)

Final Thoughts
• Registerable vs. Authentic– A submission must be registerable; it need not be
authentic– While we can encourage clients to design period-
looking armory, we cannot, and should not, force the decision
– If a client is set on a registerable but not very authentic submission, you should process it!
![Page 80: So you want to be a (book) herald? Part II - Armory](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081515/568164a0550346895dd6904d/html5/thumbnails/80.jpg)
Final Thoughts
• Customer Service– It is our job to help our clients– We are here to make registrations happen, not
prevent them from happening– When consulting, help clients create registerable
submissions they like– When commenting, look for reasons to allow
registration, not prohibit it– Heralds want a reputation for being helpful, not
obstructionist!
