The June Letter of Acceptances and Returns was published on Wednesday, August 21st. Here are the results for Calontir.

CALONTIR acceptances

Bragi Oddsson. Release of Badge. Gyronny arrondi sable and Or, in fess an increscent and a decrescent interlaced gules.

Charles von Bayrreuth. Device. Per pall Or, vert and azure, a cross patonce argent between in chief in chevron a rose gules between two roses Or.

Eleanor Deyeson. Badge (see RETURNS for other badges). Azure, in pale three escallops between flaunches argent.

This badge does not conflict with the device of Katherine Elys of Glastonbury, Azure, in bend three escallops argent. There is an SC for the unforced change in arrangement of the primary charges from in bend to in pale.

The submitter has permission to conflict with the device of Katerina Buonnarroti de Firenze, Azure, in pale three escallops between two flaunches fleury argent.

Finnr Ketilsson. Name change from Eilo de Castil.

Nice 9th-11th century Old Norse name from Iceland!

The submitter’s prior name, Eilo de Castil, is released.

Lisette la fauconniere d’Amboise. Badge. (Fieldless) A chicken’s footprint gules.

This badge does not conflict with the badge of Artemas Maximus, Or, a bear’s paw print gules. There is a DC for fieldlessness and a DC between a bird’s footprint and a pawprint.

There is a step from core practice for the use of a bird’s footprint. Palimpsest is directed to update SENA Appendix G1 to note this.

Marta della Casa. Name and device. Argent, on a strawberry leaf vert a strawberry Or.

Nice 15th century Florentine name!

This device does not conflict with the badge of Bronwyn Acthorn, Argent, an oak leaf vert, charged with an Old English letter “B” Or. There is a DC for the type of tertiary charge, and a DC between the “oak-shaped” oak leaf and the “maple-shaped” strawberry leaf.

As noted in SENA Appendix M1j, we blazon a cluster of three strawberry leaflets as a singular strawberry leaf.

Mjǫll Úlfarsdóttir. Release of device. Quarterly wavy vert and azure, a square weaver’s tablet lozengewise and on a chief argent a stick shuttle purpure.

Mjǫll Úlfarsdóttir. Change of badge to device. Gyronny arrondi gules and argent, a wolf sejant forepaw raised within a bordure azure.

Titus Salvius Bassus. Name and device. Per chevron azure and purpure, in cross four scorpions inverted Or.

Nice Roman name for the late 1st or early 2nd century CE!

Violet Sinclair. Badge. (Fieldless) A seeblatt purpure winged Or within and conjoined to a four-lobed quadrate cornice gules.

Violet Sinclair. Badge. Or, on a natural rainbow bendwise throughout proper three seeblätter palewise argent.

Though rainbows bendwise throughout are not bends, which would have the seeblätter default to bendwise, we feel it is clearest to be explicit about their orientation. As noted on the May 2024 Cover Letter, this has a complexity count of six, as the natural rainbow is treated as having three tinctures: gules, Or, and either vert or azure.

Zaneta Baseggio. Badge. (Fieldless) A goat-headed cock bendy sable and argent.

CALONTIR returns

Eleanor Deyeson. Badge. Azure, on a fess engrailed on the upper edge and invected on the lower edge argent, a sprig of laurel fesswise proper.

This badge is returned for using two different complex lines on an ordinary, as precedent states that “using two different complex lines on an ordinary is not registerable.” [Mara Palmer, R-Meridies, August 2012 LoAR] This precedent was upheld in the return of the badge for the Kingdom of Trimaris’s Order of Seawall in April 2015.

Eleanor Deyeson. Badge. Or goutty de sang, on an escarbuncle sable an eye argent irised gules.

This badge is returned for lack of identifiability of the primary charge. The center of a properly drawn escarbuncle doesn’t have room for a tertiary charge; this escarbuncle has been modified to make room for the eye in such a way that it becomes unrecognizable.
