> About my device,  is there a problem with: Fieldless

You can't register it as a "device"; "devices" in the SCA can't
be fieldless.  However, there's nothing that says you have to
have a device.  "Badge" in the SCA is a catch-all for "all armory
what ain't a device": badges eo nomine, group armory other than branch
arms (household designs), ensigns, et cetera.  There's nothing that
says that you can't just register a badge and use it in device-
like ways.  Arms per se didn't even exist before the mid-1100s,
so you're either being anachronistic, or trying to do something
authentic for pre-Conquest while fitting into the SCA armory rules,
(and thus compromising), or something of that ilk.
