The short answer is......what it takes to perform the duties of
their office. By taking this point of view, you first determine what is 
required of them, then make a list of the knowledge that is needed to 
perform those duties.

Now as to what duties are required for branch heralds...well that can 
vary from kingdom to kingdom.  For one point of view,  I invite you to
look at the article I have written, entitled: DUTIES OF A LOCAL HERALD. 

It is located at:

Hope this helps somewhat.
