Gules, a demi-fox sable maintaining a banner Or and a sword argent

Orle offered:

SENA A.4 (http://heraldry.sca.org/sena.html#A4) lays out the requirements:

• One Heraldic Jurisdiction: "All elements in an Individually Attested Pattern must be found in that single time and place, including charges, arrangement of charge groups, and lines of division" (SENA A.4.A "Definitions" section). Also " All examples should come from a single heraldic style or culture; the submissions should match the style of that culture as well" (SENA A.4.C.1 "Source and Style").

• Document One of Everything: "All elements in an Individually Attested Pattern must be found in that single time and place, including charges, arrangement of charge groups, and lines of division" (SENA A.4.A "Definitions" section).

• Document Non-Core Style Element(s): "In general, three closely matching examples of the exact practice are sufficient to demonstrate a pattern." (SENA A.4.C.3)
