[ANSTHRLD] Need info

[Schalles, Francis T]

Greetings!

A member requested help designing a badge now that he had received the
award. I looked for an existing badge design in the archives. There was
no
initial information on it, nor which type of award it was, nor what
attributes the award carried. So I asked for information and help, hence
this thread.

I now understand that the Kingdom has a badge in process, and I report
this to the member and inform him of his options under the award.

I hope this has answered your question, if not please contact me off

Forgive me, I'm not a herald (ok, I'm a scribe), so I'm a bit confused
by your request. On that
badge device request, is the design to have anything to do with the
design of an actual Sable
Talon?  (I'm only asking as the kingdom is already working on a badge
for the award of the Sable
Talon.)

Or is this just a request for the requesters own badge, now that they
specifically have the 'right
to bear arms', since the Sable Talon carries an Award of Arms (AoA)?   

It's my understanding that anyone in Ansteorra can register name, device
and badges without yet
having an AoA yet earned, where some kingdoms may require you to wait
for an AoA before pursuing
arms registration.  So, this recipient could have registered a badge
without receiving the Sable
Talon.   And yes, badges are registered just like devices, except they
go on the badge form with
the round (bezant) shape instead of the shield shape. 

Does that answer the question?
