Greetings and welcome to the January edition of the CAMeL with the LoAR
for November.

Registrations are:

• [1] Angharad Rheged. Name change from Florie Attewood and device
  change (see PENDS for badge change). Vert, a chevron and in chief three
  cinquefoils argent.

The submitter’s previous name, Florie Attewood, is released.

The submitter’s previous device, Vert, a winged stag segreant and on a chief
argent three thistles vert, is released.

• [2] Gaylord of Saint Monica. Name (see PENDS for device).

Saint Monica is the registered name of an SCA branch.

• [3] Muireach Mac Gréine. Device. Per chevron azure and sable, three
  roses argent and a sun Or.

This device was pended for redraw on the July 2023 LoAR to draw the
roses in their default arrangement. Quarterstaff provided new artwork
which the submitter approved.

• [4] Rúnfríðr Keiliselgr. Release of alternate name Rachel of Saint
  Monica.

Pending:

Angharad Rheged. Badge change. (Fieldless) A rabbit sejant reguardant
contourny argent.

This badge is pended to redraw the rabbit as clearly sejant. As drawn,
commenters were split as to whether it was sejant or statant.

If accepted, the submitter’s previous badge, Per fess vert and argent,
a thistle counterchanged, is to be released.

• [5] Gaylord of Saint Monica. Device. Argent, a chaplet of thorns gules
  and overall a cross of Santiago sable.

This device is pended for redraw to enlarge the cross so its arms extend
past the edges of the chaplet. As submitted the cross is barely overall.

Returns:

Ollivier Le Floch. Badge. Per pale argent and gules.

This badge is returned for conflict with the device of Clara Masen,
Per pale argent and Or. There is a single DC for changing the tincture of
half the field.

Errata letter had the following:

MAY 2022

Rúnfríðr Keiliselgr. Name change from Rachel of Saint Monica.

When their name was registered, the LoI neglected to note this was a
name change. The previous name, Rachel of Saint Monica, was retained
as an alternate persona name.

• [6] FROM LAUREL: A NEW LEAF!

The time has come to turn over my office. I am pleased to announce that
the Board of Directors has, with my blessing, accepted Birgitta Lulli as
the next Laurel Queen of Arms. Birgitta is well known to many of us as
she has been a member of the College of Arms since 1996. A member of the
Order of the Pelican, she has also been Pelican King of Arms and twice
Schwarzdrachen Principal Herald, among many other offices!

The formal change of office will take place at the next quarterly Board
Meeting, which happens to also be the weekend of vKWHSS in January. Her
formal introduction will be on next month’s Cover Letter.

• [8] FROM PELICAN: NAHUATL ALTERNATE TITLES

The Nahuatl alternate titles list proposed on Palimpsest’s August 30th
Rules Letter is accepted with some changes. The updated list will be
available at https://heraldry.sca.org/titles.html within a few days. We
thank Kallinikos Gavras, Rouge Scarpe Herald for sharing his research
that led to the Rules Letter and Lillia de Vaux, Crampette Herald, for
her additional research shared during commentary.

• [9] FROM WREATH: SENA A5E5 – CHANGE OF POSTURE OF THE PRIMARY CHARGE
  GROUP

Based on Palimpsest’s August 31st Rules Letter, a new section is added
to SENA A5E5 to address the difference in orientation/type between
ordinaries. The update will be available at
https://heraldry.sca.org/sena.html#A5E5c within a few days.

I hope that you all had a wonderful and uneventful New Year and that
this year brings all that you deserve. I look forward to working with
you all and seeing as many of you as possible.

Yours in service

Isabella Crux
