Club

Maccormaic: Create page.

A [[club]] is a blunt weapon used to cause percussive or bludgeon damage. Essentially cylindrical, a club may be made of any substance, although materials with more density will cause more damage to the target and will survive more uses. Swung one- or two-handed, the club is the earliest of weapons, and is still in widespread use today.

Maccormaic:

Two more [[wiki]] pages needed "[[fimbriated]]" and "[[mulletty]]". From recent [[Lochac]] discussions, ''fimbriated'' seems to indicate that a [[charge]], [[line division|division]] or [[ordinary]] is surrounded by a [[border]] of a certain [[tincture]]. ''Mulletty'' seems to say the division or ordinary is filled with [[mullet]]s. Can someone who is more in the know complete these pages and link to them on appropriate pages (cf. [[Kingdom of the East]]'s [[device]]). - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 20:34, 9 Aug 2005 (CDT)

*<strike>As far as I know fimbriated only applies to ordinaries.</strike> Fimbriation applies to simple charges only (including any ordinary). Your basic description is correct though. As well as fimbriated we need [[cotised]]. As for mulletty, it may be just as well to create a redirect to [[mullet]] and add the information there. Thanks for the heads up.

Should all entries in [[:category:heraldic poses]] also be in [[:category:device heraldry]]? cf. [[Couchant]]. I would say no. - [[User:Cian|Cian Gillebhrath]] 01:51, 17 Oct 2005 (CDT)
* I would agree; there's no need to fill out device heraldry with poses. They're two seperate things, really (a lion is a device, whether it's dormant or statent). IIRC, poses don't count for a CD as far as submission is concerned, while devices do, so there's precedent for keeping the two apart. [[User:Thomas|Thomas]] 07:28, 17 Oct 2005 (CDT)
** Actually, a lion is a ''charge''. Postures '''do'' count for a CD, under SCA Rules for Submission. A lion rampant has a counted difference from a lion passant. - [[User:Maccormaic|Roberd]] 17:13, 31 Dec 2005 (CST)
*I would say no as well. As a general rule of thumb I would avoid categorising something under both a category and its subcategory. Ahem. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 08:07, 17 Oct 2005 (CDT)

__NOTOC__
[[Image:Herald.png|right|Herald's badge]]
'''Heraldry''' is the [[medieval]] [[A&S|art and science]] that deals with the creation, use, and recognition of visual displays that identify an individual person, [[guild]], [[town]], [[officer|office]] or other entity. This was typically done through much of the [[Middle Ages]] using a [[paint]]ed [[shield]] which bore a (largely) unique arrangement of [[division]] lines, and objects known as "[[charges]]". Early in the Medieval [[period]], this "[[coat of arms]]" was unique to an individual, only becoming associated with a family in the late [[Renaissance]].

In the [[SCA]], heraldry is concerned with [[ceremony|ceremonies]] and [[Court]]s, the crying of announcements and proclaimations, the pomp and circumstance of the [[Tournament]], and the authentication and registration of [[member]]s' [[persona]] [[names]] and [[arms]] or [[badge]]s. These areas of interest give rise to the terms "[[court heraldry]]" and "field (or list) heraldry" (both also known as "[[voice heraldry]]") and "[[book heraldry]]" (which also includes the background work and research in arranging ceremonies).

In the SCA, modern and period worlds, heraldry tends to be governed by the rules set by a [[College of Arms]].
