[ANSTHRLD] Augmentation info

[Jacquie Ziegler]

Greetings!

The question was asked about what other forms augmentations could take. 
I was granted an augmentation from
the Crown of Artemisia several years ago, and the form was totally left 
up to me. Not all Kingdoms have registered
badges that are specifically designated as a 'Kingdom augmentation' - 
actually, most Kingdoms don't have this.

I chose a lozenge centered in the field as my augmentation. The full 
registered blazon is:

Per chevron vert and argent, in pale a flute fesswise argent and a raven 
volant wings elevated and addorsed sable, and for augmentation, in fess 
point on a lozenge sable a sinister wing with a hand issuant maintaining 
a straight trumpet Or.

*As you can see, this is a much different idea from the more common 
canton form for augmentation. In my case,
I felt that the canton would unncessarily obscure the flute in my arms, 
and any other shape would look odd
in either corner of the top of the field. Therefore, I went to the 
center of the field, where I felt that there was
more room to put something that would stand out without masking the 
underlying armory.

If anyone wants a picture, let me know privately.
