So I'm working on a new map for the server and its wiki and all that, and a side project that popped up while I'm doing that is city/settlement banners. Basically, you can think of them as family-crests or house-seals or something like that. The main concept came from things like Game of Thrones (the House banners) and even Diablo III (which uses banners for... something?)

Anyway, what I'm driving at is that I'm willing to create custom banners for people's settlements. There will be some criteria that you'll have to meet before I can do them, and they have to be reasonable and fitting within VeteranCraft's general fantasyish theme.

Examples (first drafts and DEFINITELY not final products)

So to request a banner, simple reply to this post with the following information:

CITY/SETTLEMENT NAME

MOTTO (must be short, no curse words or stupid sayings.)

EMBLEM (keep this simple and non-modern. Please don't request a flaming ninja carrying a mini-gun shooting rockets made of lightning riding a cyborg unicorn with jet engines and a team of laser-sharks)

BANNER COLOR (the background color)

SYMBOL COLOR (the foreground color/colors (a max of two colors, but they typically look better with one)

Colors and themes will be honored according to seniority: example: if Vetropolis wants Silver and Gold, but so does Dustlandia, Vetropolis will get Silver and Gold. If Capetown wants Blue banner, White emblem and so does Vetra, Capetown gets it. And so forth.

Overall, I think this has a chance to help give identity to each settlement out there, you'll each get a bit of customization out of the deal, and possibly something to enhance your playing on this server.

Admins/Mods, if I've overstepped my boundaries, strike this topic down and I will beg for forgiveness.

I told the doctor I broke my leg in two places. He told me to stop going to those places.

Awesome idea, Pherian!

Emblem: This, the Seed of Life, rising up from behind a hill. So long as the center point of the Seed can be seen, a portion of the bottom can be obscured.
