The April 2025 Letter of Acceptances and Returns has been published. Here are the results for Calontir. This month, they reblazoned a couple of already registered devices. This doesn’t mean the devices were changed; only the words describing the devices were changed.

CALONTIR acceptances

Submitted as Dragoncina Di Cecco, we have changed the capitalization of the byname to di Cecco to follow standard Italian practices.

Seamus of Gallhaven. Reblazon of device. Per fess azure and sable, a snowy owl’s head argent and in saltire a straight trumpet Or and a pen argent.

Blazoned when registered in August 1985 as Per fess azure and sable, in pale a snowy owl’s head caboshed argent and in saltire a straight trumpet bell in chief Or and a quill argent, we are clarifying that the charge in base is a pen not a quill of yarn. We are also taking this opportunity to update the blazon using current, standard defaults and terminology.

Siggi gjallandi. Badge. (Fieldless) A sea-rhinoceros argent tailed gules.

Vilhjálmr hálftrǫll. Reblazon of badge. Gyronny arrondi of six gules and Or, a demi-troll affronty arms raised azure.

CALONTIR returns

None.

CALONTIR pends

Roslyn Froste. Device. Azure semy of estoiles Or, a fox rampant reguardant contourny argent.

This device is pended to redraw it with more estoiles. There are only five estoiles on the field in an unblazonable arrangement, which blurs the line between five charges and semy.

This was item 6 on the Calontir letter of January 7, 2025.
