Nobility in the MCS

Within our ranks, we currently have at least 2 kings, a queen, numerous knights, ladies, squires, pages and peasants. Our characters are sometimes based on real life people and on the odd occasion are actually related to the member. Displayed here are just some of those with their unique heraldry with a description of the different components used in them.

If being nobility does not suit you, check out the rest of the gang here!
