Blazon Options:

Current Shield

"Per bend argent and sable, a lion counterchanged langued and armed gules and charged on the shoulder with an ermine spot argent within a bordure denticulada counterchanged."

Closest non-conflict

  • Ruairidh MacLeoid - The following device associated with this name was registered in March of 1983 (via An Tir): "Per bend sinister sable and argent, a natural panther rampant within a bordure embattled all counterchanged." http://rollofarms.antirheralds.org/display.php?id=1413
    • DC for direction of field division
    • DC for direction of division on the "cat"
    • DC for the ermine spot

http://rollofarms.antirheralds.org/arms/RuairidhMacLeoid.gif

Option 1 - change the colors of the border squares

"Per bend argent and sable, a lion counterchanged langued and armed gules and charged on the shoulder with an ermine spot argent within a bordure denticulada counterchanged gules and argent."

  • This makes the border squares red and white instead of black and white. (Can substitute blue, purple or green for the red).
  • Could also substitute yellow for white - "bordure compony/denticulada <color> and Or".

Option 2 - Chaussé

"Chaussé (French for “shod”) is a Continental partition of the field, formed by two lines drawn from the corners of the chief to the base point." http://mistholme.com/dictionary/chausse/ http://mistholme.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/chausse-264x300.jpg

Boot

  • "(Fieldless) A boot gules" seems to have a conflict, but a red boot charged with an ermine spot seems clear. https://oanda.sca.org//oanda_desc.cgi?p=CLOTHING%2dBOOT%20AND%20SHOE
