Award of Arms
Often the first award a player receives. An Award of Arms is given for contributing or active members of the Kingdom who look like they will continue with the SCA. This award grants the recipient the right to use the title ‘Lord’ or ‘Lady’ and to display ‘arms’ (their own heraldic design) in the SCA. This title is recognized throughout the SCA.
