Estimats membreux del Coletx d'Armeux Rexhital,
My name is Barclamïu da Miéletz, and, if it so please the Squirrel King of Arms, I kindly request the assistance of the College in designing and obtaining arms for myself and my lawful heirs. My favourite colour is maroon, and, is it allowed for my coat of arms to include symbols directing towards my Polish heritage?
Azul S:reu da Miéletz,
The Dean of the College,
@Baron Alexandreu Davinescu will be following up with you on your request shortly.

If the College leadership is open to my jumping the gun* a moment, I have an idea for S:reu da Miéletz. The caveat is that because his favorite color is maroon, it involves sanguine, a tincture which requires special permission to use as per our own Rules of Heraldry (https://wiki.talossa.com/Rules_of_Heraldry).
- TLF
*A Fellow argent salient over a musket proper
I assign this applicant to you then, TLF, with the request that you seek to stay within the customary tinctures if reasonably possible. In my personal opinion, exceptions should be made only when it cannot be avoided because of established history, precedent, important connection, or extremely clever idea.
-Dean
After consulting the requestor, I submit the following blazon:

Wonder when I can have it as my profile picture
It would be polite to wait until you are officially awarded the arms at the next appropriate holiday.

I'll wait then
Juneau Day is 28 May, so I expect that will be the next awards.
