Anyone have it or know a reference to it? Quick suspense on this if possible.

The Lone Wolf is the symbol for House Kendrick, and the Great Bear is the royal symbol of the united Ffolk of the Moonshaes. As such, both banners would surely fly upon the towers of Caer Callidyrr.


Thanks for the clarification Brian

Cheers

I forgot where I read it, but it was mentioned that there is a City Heraldry and a Family Heraldry.

Ah, that's the reference I was thinking about.

My thanks, crazed.

Not unusual at all: in RW heraldry, it is the default case that cities/countries have different coats of arms than their rulers.

I didn't realise that the city would have different heraldry from those who rule it?

Looks like a question for Ed

Darkwalker on Moonshae.

Neat.

For the sake of my curiosity, was the heraldry tidbit from the FA1 module, or is this simply another case of my misremembering?
Matt James Posted - 15 Aug 2011 : 18:39:09
I found it thanks for Brian R. James :) Hooray for Realmslore guru older brothers! It’s a black banner emblazoned with a silver bear.

Ed also gave a few tid-bits. But it is unpublished. Thus, I can only tease you with it!

I can't check the book at the moment, but for whatever reason [whether because I've looked it up myself before, or it's a tidbit I rediscovered by accident], I'm thinking FA1 Halls of the High King makes reference to the heraldry of Callidyrr.
