Atenveldt Submissions (excerpted from the S.C.A. College of Arms' Letters of Acceptance and Return)

The following submissions were registered by the SCA College of Arms, May 2015:

Arria Silvana. Device change. Per fess vert and sable, a unicorn's head couped argent and three ivy leaves Or.
The submitter's old device, Per fess vert and sable, a unicorn's head couped argent and three Arabian lamps Or, is released.

Gareth Llandefaelog. Name and device. Sable, a pall inverted and in sinister chief a rabbit rampant Or. Submitted as Gareth Llandefaelog, the byname appeared in the Letter of Intent as Llandfaelog. No reason for this change was given, and it may have been a typographical error. Although the submitted form was not specifically dated, the documentation stated that the forms following the header forms were either dated to c.1267 or were consistent with 13th and 14th century Welsh or English spellings. In addition, the modern form of this place name is spelled Llandyfaelog, found on the town council's website (http://www.llandyfaelog.org.uk/Llandyfaelog-land/Default.aspx). As the submitted spelling is not identical to the modern form, we are able to give the submitter the benefit of the doubt that it is a period spelling, and can restore it to the submitted form.

Jórhildr skáldhrafn. Device. Argent, in pale a thistle and a boar passant proper, a bordure azure.

Kára Hanadóttir. Device. Vert, a phoenix face to sinister argent and a sinister gore ermine.
There is a step from period practice for the use of a gore with another charge on the field.

Sitriuc of Atenveldt. Holding name and device (see RETURNS for other device). Per chevron Or and vert, two pommes each charged with a triskelion of armored legs Or and a winged sea-fox naiant argent.
This submission was pended from the December 2014 LoAR to determine which of two near-identical submissions was the correct one. Submitted under the name Sitriuc Sionnach Liath.

The following submissions were returned for further work, May 2015:

Gwyneth O Callaghan. Device. Argent, an ash tree eradicated proper and on a chief azure a sun Or between an increscent and a decrescent argent.
This device is returned administratively. The form uploaded was hand-colored while the emblazon in OSCAR was computer-colorized, which has long been a cause for return.

Mineko of Twin Moons. Badge. (Fieldless) A domestic cat sejant affronty sinister paw raised argent within and conjoined to a mascle gules.
This badge is returned for presumption upon the protected symbol of the Red Crystal, a symbol protected by treaty for the use of the International Committee of the Red Cross: A gules mascle on any argent background or in any way that could be displayed on an argent background. The presence of the cat in the middle of the muscle does not prevent the presumption as, by international treaty, for indicative use on foreign territory, a national society which does not use one of the recognized symbols as its emblem has to incorporate its unique symbol into the Red Crystal.

Mineko of Twin Moons and Irina Dionisiya Tolochkova. Joint household name Societate Sine Nomine and badge. (Fieldless) A serpent with a head at both ends nowed in a Cavendish knot argent.
This household name is returned because it doesn't follow a pattern of naming a group of people in period. The examples cited in the Letter of Intent were a name of a mass, and a heraldic title named after a motto. We do not have evidence of households named after Latin mottos. Without evidence to support this pattern, we are unable to register this household name.
Upon resubmission, the submitters should know that the correct nominative (base) form of the designator meaning "Society" is Societas.
This badge is returned for presumption with the badge of the House of Savoy: (Tinctureless) A Savoy knot (Important non-SCA badge). There is a DC for tinctureless versus tinctured but, by long standing precedent, there is no DC between different types of knots nor between a snake nowed in a recognizable knot and the knot itself.

Sitriuc of Atenveldt. Device. Per chevron Or and vert, two pommes each charged with a triskelion of armored legs Or and a winged sea-fox naiant Or.
This submission was pended from the December 2014 LoAR to determine which of two near-identical submissions was the correct one.
This submission has been withdrawn by the Kingdom.
