Where to find the answer to this question:

A bordure surrounds everything except a chief.

Where to find the answer to this question:
http://www.sca.org/heraldry/laurel/regs.html in the Rules for Submission.
The Rules for Submission section X.4.a. say yes.

Find the answer to this in the Laurel precedents, noted above.
A crescent moon has a face; just a crescent does not. Semantics... :)
Crescents point up, decrescents point to sinister, increscents point to
dexter, and crescents pentant or inverted point down.
There. Answers and tools. Any more questions?
