[ANSTHRLD] Zelda and a Badge.

[D. Vandever]

Thank you, Teceangl.  I have done as you suggested and printed off your
opinion to add to my documentation.  Now for another question.

I am tossing around ideas for a badge for Zelda to submit at the same time I
submit the name.  Stephan mac Thomas and I were talking this a.m. and after
doing some research and discussion, suggested I take the ideas we came up
with to the herald's list.  (Stephen, please feel free to add or comment as
you wish)  Also, all you Armory Heralds out there, please be patient with my
discriptions as I am sure they are less than adequate.

Here are two different ones we came up with.

1.
Fieldless, In Chief, an dexter hand, sable,  maintaining a Besant, In Base,
a sinister hand, gules, maintaining a wooden bowl, proper.

I believe that besants/coins are default OR and so I didn't add the tincture
to the above.

2.
Fieldless, A maiden maintaining a dexter wooden staff proper and a sinister
wooden bowl proper.

A maiden is normally or default facing to the front...am I correct?  If not
that is the position I am seeing her in.  If this second one is better, I
would really like to use a Hag instead of a Maiden but I don't know if Hags
were used in period for devices and badges.  If the Maiden is better, would
it be artistic license to show her as a Hag?  All commentary is most
welcome.
