![]() ![]() 2: Artemisia, Kingdom of - Resub Badge (KLoI)
OSCAR finds the name registered exactly as it appears in June of 1998, via Artemisia. Sable, a pile Or This submission is to be associated with Populace and Standard Augmentation This badge, previously submitted as, Sable, a pile voided Or (see image 1), was returned on the Jan 2003 LoAR for conflict: Conflict with the March of Grimfells, Sable, on a pile throughout Or a spiderweb throughout sable charged with a laurel wreath vert, and with Oyn Cefnog, Sable, on a pile throughout Or three pheons two and one gules. This badge is equivalent to Sable, on a pile Or a pile sable. Therefore, versus either Grimfells or Oyn Cefnog, there is only a single CD for cumulative changes to the group of charges on the pile by RfS X.4.j. This design (the one originally intended) removes the conflict with Grimfells (1st DC for removal of tertiary spiderweb, and 2nd DC for removal of quaternary laurel wreath). While the conflict with Oyn Cefnog remains, a PtC for that conflict has been obtained: I, (mundane name redacted), known in the SCA as Oyn Cefnog, give Artemesia, Kingdom of, known in the SCA as Kingdom of Artemesia permission for their proposed populace badge "Sable, a pile throughout Or" (to look similar to, but not identical to, my armory, "Sable, on a pile throughout Or three pheons two and one gules". I understand that this permission cannot be withdrawn once the Kingdom of Artemesia's armory is registered. In kingdom, it was noted that the blazon of the submitted item in this PtC does not exactly match the submitted emblazon. That being said, the blazon written by the owner of the registered arms is closer to his arms than the submitted item. So, we argue that he has given more permission than necessary, rather than less. Additionally, the owner has been very gracious. He no longer plays SCA and said he would be happy to release his arms, in order to allow Artemisia's registration. Both Artemisian heralds and heralds in the owner's home kingdom of Meridies hope that we do not have to bother him by asking for anything more than he has already given. Another conflict, Gules, a pile Or (Adelindis filia Gotefridi, Oct 2004 via Lochac), also exists. Fortunately, Adelindis has provided a blanket letter of permission to conflict: I, (mundane name redacted), known in the SCA as Adelindis filia Gotefridi, waive the full protection of my registered armory "Gules, a pile Or". I grant permission to any future submitter to register armory that is not identical to my registered armory.This BLoPtC can be found on Lochac LoI - 2023-05-28. https://oscar.sca.org/index.php?...
