    Well it seems I'm confirmed as:

    Alain de Rohan, Duke of Bretagne, pending name change success of the mod.

    Shield options are now requested Deg.

    well i suppose the immediate question is, do we want:

    a) pretty historical: the Rohan Arms with a subshield of the Brittany Arms

    b) not at all historical: something as above

    c) a mishmash: i could imagine, for example, incorporating the Rohan Arms into the background behind the dragon

    for c), could be like this (removed the dragon after all, with a heavy heart, but it was getting too clustered):

    AG:

    not sure myself actually. this is simpler, but for some reason the river seems to divide better...but I leave it to you. Also made the fleurs de lys slightly darker:

    Tristan:

    not convinced about the sword-wheat/sickle/fork combo. perhaps its just a colour issue, but something doesnt look quite right yet. that said i didnt want to go too wild without some feedback:

    That looks almost like what I expected... Perhaps putting the wheat ear and sword in gold/yellow with the sword over the the wheat.

    You're right deg

    The river is much better than a straight cut line.

    The dragon was good...it's so hard to choose.
