<DIV><BR></DIV>Ansteorran Gazette March 2011<BR><BR>Contents:<BR><BR>Letter From
Star: <BR>Greetings!<BR><BR>This letter marks the official opening of my office
for applications. Obviously this is a required position; I will not be seeking
an extension to my tenure, so the kingdom is in need! The duties of the office
of Star Principal Herald are outlined in Kingdom Law, the Administrative
Handbook for the College of Arms, and the Ansteorran College of Heralds and
Scribes Administrative Handbook. You should be familiar with all three of these
documents. While the College of Heralds and Scribes is a very diverse operation,
the office of Star Principal is largely an administrative one. There are,
however, plenty of opportunities for dabbling in court and other vocal heraldry,
submissions, precedence, award constitutions, and such like. As a Greater Office
of State, you should be well-versed in conflict-resolution and be able to wisely
counsel the Crown.<BR><BR>Applications, including a copy of your membership card
and photo ID, should be sent to the Crown, Laurel, and myself by April 30.
Electronic scans are acceptable. I am more than happy to answer any questions
you may have about the behind-the-scenes workings of the office.
<BR><BR>Sharp eyes may notice an extra note from me in the February Black Star.
Per the Administrative Handbook III.A.1 "...in the case of defunct Society
branches...", we will be releasing the following branch names and armory. If you
have any comments or concerns, please let me know as soon as possible.<BR><BR>1.

and on a chief wavy argent a laurel wreath vert.<BR>2. Black Oak Keep, Incipient
