Greetings to you milord, and welcome to this list.

For the benefit of listeners and lurkers, as Pug noted, Ponca City is 
in the process of getting zip codes transferred and all manner of 
administrative things to become an incipient Canton to the Barony of 
Northkeep.

For the original author:
As Master Daniel noted, please don't use lavender unless you are 
using something that is lavender in the real world and you are 
blazoning it as "proper".  While banners, etc., can be made with 
silver material, always use white in registration forms.

Northkeep's populace was informed at our meeting at the end of June 
about your transfer being in progress.  As such we (the populace) 
have not had a really good chance to begin to get to know you and 
make you welcome and work with you.  Northkeep had a heraldic 
commentary session yesterday and your post was discussed.  Robert 
FitzMorgan, the current herald of Northkeep, and I are interested in 
coming over and working with you in the development of a name for 
your group and appropriate arms.  I know that our Hospitaller and 
Arts & Sciences Minister will be interested in hosting Newcomers' 
classes as soon as schedules can be put together.

If you need more heraldic info, please don't hesitate to use this 
list and the accumulated wisdom/opinions of this group.  Also feel 
welcome to contact Honorable Lord Robert as he will be the herald 
closest to working with your situation (I'm emailing his address 
privately).  Also, I would be happy to help as I can and Robert knows 
that he can call on me as needed.

Thank you also for starting with questions early, before you have set 
your hearts on a name or arms that are non-period or inappropriate or 
not registerable.
