Unto Fiachra ni Ciardhubhain, White Stag Principal Herald, and the College of Heralds of the Kingdom of the Outlands, does Andrew von Otelingen, Rampart Herald, send his greetings.
What follows is the Letter of Response for June 2013 CE, ruling on the May 2013 Letter of Presentation.
I would like to thank all of the heralds who were kind enough to provided commentary.
The following items were RETURNED for further work:
- Killian MacKenzie - New Device Change. Argent, a cinquefoil, a bordure purpure
- Unfortunately, these beautiful arms conflict with Alyanora of Vinca (reg. 02/1975 via the West), "Argent, a periwinkle [Vinca minor] proper." There is a DC for the bordure, but none for the tincture of the flower, since Alyanora's periwinkle conflicts with both roses purpure and roses azure: "Per the May 2000 LoAR, 'Periwinkles are bluish purple and by current precedent (see the September 1996 LoAR, pg. 17 ...) they are not significantly different from either blue or purple roses.'" [LoAR 11/2003].
This also conflicts with Regina O'Duncan (reg. 05/2008 via An Tir), "Argent masoned sable, a violet purpure slipped and leaved vert seeded Or within a bordure purpure," with a DC for the field, but none for the type of flower.

[LoAR 11/2003].
- Torrun inn Vidforla - New Device. Vert chaussé, a valknot argent
- This conflicts with Halvdan Stormulv (reg. 09/1993 via Ansteorra), "Azure, a valknut argent." The only difference is the field. (Chause is a field and not a charge)
- Torrun inn Vidforla - New Badge. (Fieldless) an unidentifyable charge vert.
- This is returned for the lack of blazonability & reproducability of the primary and only charge.
The following items were PENDED for further Discussion:
- None
The following items were forwarded to Laurel Sovereign for final determination:
- Anzelm Kowalski - New Blanket Permission to Conflict (Name & Device)
- Anzelm Kowalski - New Heraldic Will
- August von Behr - New Name
- Bryce MacManus - New Name & New Device. Or, a raven displayed and on a chief sable, five pheons Or
- Dawn Schadeu - New Name & New Device. Per chevron gules and Or, a phoenix, head to sinister, counterchanged, and a demi-sun issuant from base sable
- This was corrected on the LoI to be the intended "Dawn Shadue" after posting as _eu_ was a typo.
- Elizabeth of Saint Edmundsbury - New Device. Per chevron azure and argent, three mullets of eight points and a rose counterchanged
- Eric Litefoote of Studley - New Device. Per bend sinister gules and sable, bendwise two cog wheels argent
- Fergus Campbell - New Name & New Device. Per fess Or and argent, two boar's heads couped close and a maple leaf gules
