Vatavia, Barony of. Badge. Per bend sinister Or and azure, a harp and a dragonfly inverted counterchanged.
![[Home]](/wiki.gif)
Per precedent (q.v. George Anne, 05/2002), a dragonfly inverted is one step from period practice. This badge is for local bards.
The forms also have the note about this being a badge for local bards. Can this note get added to the OandA? entry for this badge?
Got it...
* The following device associated with this name was registered in May of 2007 (via Atlantia):
Azure, on a pale argent between two lightning bolts palewise Or a gauntlet clenched sable.
This isn't a pale vert; it needs to be moved to be with the other pales argent. :-)
This one has no features on any of the descriptions. The pale has no tincture specified, so it matches any tincture. There are items with incomplete or inadequate indexing. This one shouldn't have been one.
* The following device associated with this name was registered in September of 1991 (via the West):
Per fess Or and vert, on a pale counterchanged, between in chief two martlets, in base a martlet vert.
The marlets are vert; this needs to be moved. :-)
...and they were not marked with any tincture, so they would show up under any tincture, including vert.
...it shoudl go both places, as Hippocampus is ambiguous
* This name was registered in February of 1985 (via An Tir).
* The following device associated with this name was registered in July of 1983 (via An Tir):
Per bend argent and sable, two falcon's heads erased counterchanged.
* This name, registered in July of 1983 (via An Tir), was changed to James the Blackhawk in September of 1983 (via An Tir).
...and it was changed back to James Blackhawk in February of 1985. Yeah, it's weird, but, well, it's weird.
This shows up under TORCH, but there's no torch in it -- a flamberge is a wavy-bladed sword:
* The following device associated with this name was registered in November of 1991 (via the East):
Per bend sinister engrailed argent and gules, a flamberge and a lion rampant counterchanged.

This shows up under BEND:argent:plain line:charged:1, but as far as I can tell, the bend is Or.
* The following device associated with this name was registered in July of 2006 (via Atlantia):
Azure, on a bend Or between two bears rampant argent three sheaves of arrows palewise sable.
Fixed -- Herveus
* The following device associated with this name was registered in August of 2006 (via Atlantia):
Or, a goat rampant between in fess two roundels gules.
* The following device associated with this name was registered at some point and reblazoned in August of 2006 (via Atlantia):
Or, a goat rampant between two roundels gules.
* The following device associated with this name was registered in February of 1991 (via Atlantia):
Or, a goat rampant between two roundels gules.
The middle bullet should go away - this was a reblazon of the Feb. 1991 registration, and as far as I can tell there is no difference in the blazons that would require errata to correct.

* An unknown record (type=`W') was found in the database.
Is this my heraldic will?
Yes. W indicates an heraldic will as called out on an LoAR.
This seems to be indexed under CAT:azure:1, not CAT:sable:1
oops. Fixed -- Herveus
is listed under Monster - Dragon - 1. Precedent indicates that a bi- or tri-corporate create is considered to count as two or three, not one:
"Emer ingen Meic Aedain. Name and badge. Argent, three foxes courant in annulo conjoined at the feet gules. This badge is returned for conflict with Richard Blackbury's device, Argent, a tricorporate fox gules, marked proper. [Vulpes vulpes]. A tricorporate fox has three bodies with a single head. We typically do not grant a CD for conjoined versus not conjoined, therefore there is only a single CD for the postures of the foxes (courant versus erect). [LoAR 09/2006]"
So shouldn't Theo's be under Monster - Dragon - 2?
Yep...moved - Herveus
* The following badge associated with this name was registered in December of 1990 (via Ansteorra):
(Fieldless) A lily-of-the-valley [Muset de Bois] slipped and leaved proper.
? same person as Custance nic Ralbert Macconnachie
* This name was registered in October of 1987 (via Ansteorra).
The following device associated with this name was registered in October of 1987 (via Ansteorra):
Purpure, on a pale Or three frets conjoined gules, all within a bordure Or.
These are the same person. The LoAR of October 1987 lists the Raibert spelling, not the Ralbert typo; error in the database, not on the LoAR.
