The Scribal Arts are not only an art, but also an important service. They are the means by which scrolls are made to recognize achievements in our Kingdom.

Our Scribes are volunteers and the products of their art are given freely, often without compensation for time or materials.

They were inducted into the Order of the Falcon's Heart by TRM Logan and Ylva at Kingdom Heraldic Scribal and Dance Symposium 2022.

Falcon Signet, the official Kingdom Scribe:[edit | edit source]

The position of Falcon Signet has changed over the years. Sometimes the Guild Head and the Falcon Signet were the same person. At one point the Falcon Signet was a fully warranted deputy of the Minister of Arts and Sciences. It has been stated that the Falcon Signet used to handle the duties of the Royal Scribe, and that the Royal Scribe was split off into a separate position sometime in the late '90's.
