Etherspear, would you be so kind as to explain some of the symbology within both the flag and both the coat of arms? I'm curious. |

Of course. No problem.
It's the flag and blazon from a fictive tribal nation in Friendship is magic, called City-State of Deerham. As for Monaco it's a country ruled by a kind of king called the Reis. And Sheikhdom is a village when the rulers of Deerham is raised for be crowned. ----- Flag : Called "Hiranser" (Deer Head) or "Hersch'el" (The Deer One), The design consists of three stripes , a dark taupe, white and "brown of Deerham", with two thin golden rays. The first stripe represents the sky, notably the night when the nation's aim was decreed. The first golden band is the sun, the zenith which guides the people toward their aim, which support them, and light up the way through the "traps" for avoid them and overcome the difficulties. The white strip means the peace. It longer than others because peace is more important, and the primordial objective of the nation. The low golden band symbolize the richness of Deerham, of their culture and also the sands which exiting before they, and will existing after they. At lease, the brown strip is the representation of the knowledge and, according to historians, this also the coat of Adir, a national hero which ends up the war and made him the first Reis. And the emblem in the centre of the flag is the head of "Herschel", the founder and legendary/folk figure of the nation. -------------- Coat of arms : The crown represent the kingship of Deerham, it have a foreigner style because, at this time, they don't have any blazon designer… then the Reis take command with a foreigner professional from Trottingham… which made crown… and the rest of the coat of arms. The four white banners symbolize the four factions (Methar, Bucktiari, Jámalengar, Orakh), warmongers, which lay down the arms and accepted the peace. The crest show Adir and an Oryx, Iwula, which representing the opponents madding a pact of peace under the Palm of Covenant, which is always visible in the public square of Deerham. The high part show the night when the pact was made and the low part, the sun which lead to the future, and the sand, witness of the covenant. The upper garlands represent the blood versed by the conflicts; the band is cut in symbol of the end of warlike attentions. In the middle golden garland there is wrote "Nhòlád se al-Yekéti" (Born from the Unity) The two scrolls are the representation of the power of the Reis, and the knowledge of the conflict, history, responsibilities, duty, rules and power limits of the sovereign. The brown band is just for decoration (they had in extra). ------- Shams'ayyil blazon : The crown is a traditional crown, symbol of the Sheik and the fact that the Deerham's rulers came from this tribe. Two supporters represent two faces: Adir the Unifier, and Adir the Ruler. Of course this part was put after his death… the garland show the colours of Deerham and the tribe's name is wrote in Deerhai. Into the crest, the nine stars are the nine Javidan (elite soldiers) which protect the Reis. And also the nine Deer clans which live in, and their children are pretenders. ^^ For more information : http://friendshipismagicrpg.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=charstories&action=display&thread=3040 |
