I agree with 'wolf, Talen, and Alrek on this one. Armbands are easy
without greatly interfering with personal preference... much preferable
to ugly color coded dots on helms. Talen is right about the cog in the
wheel syndrome and period appearance. Besides if all the Trimarin peers
stand out it will be easier to gang up on them.(or avoid them if it's
Duke Baldor)
 Sir Alrek just wants to wear tights and show off his buns.

Yours,
