Hello,

Sorry for my very bad english. I'm a french Pendragon fan and I will start a new campaign setting in 485.
One of my players will be the son or the daughter (depending the player's choice) of the Duke Lucius of Caercolun.
So, I search the description of Caercolun's coast of arm. Could you help me ?

Thanks.

I don't recall seeing one in any of the books. I'd just design one to match the character. Most of the coats of arms of characters in my games have lots of black, white and red.

Caer Colun is, apparently, an old name for Colchester: and of course in Pendragon Colchester is a key part of Caer Colun. The coat of arms of the city, therefore, may make a good starting point

Basically it's "Gules A Cross Vert Three Crowns Or Two Over One" - there's a bit more detail with nails and the exact kind of cross, but it's probably too detailed for an early Pendragon coat of arms to include all that anyway.

Thank you for your help !
Finally, I choose an another coast of arms for the Duke of Carcolun. Indeed, in the future the land will be overhelmed by saxons, so the coast of arms will change.
In my campaign, the early coast of arms is "a silver wolf on a sand's field".
