I prefer the painted charters that we use now.  A calligraphed document may 
be more period but it won't look nearly as cool hanging on my wall.  If we 
didn't do painted charters, then I probably wouldn't have any scrolls at all.  The 
only scrolls I have are for my awards from the Crown of Ansteorra, though I've 
been given awards in Meridies, Drachenwald and the East.  Bryn Gwlad can't 
seem to get caught up on making original scrolls for it's one armigerous award 
even though only 2-3 are given each year.

from the sky will come the great King of Terror.  
He will bring to life the great king of the Mongols.  
Before and after war reigns happily."

French astrologer, physician and prophet, 
from "Centuries" (1562).
