New skill: court heraldry

I didn't formally sign up for this challenge: http://nithaus.org/LA/scaChallenge
but had kind of mentally noted that the skill I wanted to dare was court heraldry. ( Read more... )

Heraldry, notes

Briefly, things I'd like to change for next time:

Find/make the time to write down each scribe, composer, carver, etc. for each scroll item, even if already on the advance list.
Get my own tabard.
Get a more period looking folder/portfolio to hold my documents and support the scroll. A leather one from the office store is OK but not great.
Bring a second pencil. Pens were nearly useless.
Remember to bring my baton, even if I lay it aside after the processional.
Take the time to confirm we have medallions as needed (I didn't check, but apparently somebody did or we got lucky this time).
If heralding for this particular crown again, add index cards to Their packet for each presentation.
