| Depiction of 20 heraldic shields |
I find it easier to be creative when I have a prompt or some starting point rather than a blank slate. Its a seed from which ideas spring. And once again public domain (not AI) provides!
Here are a (convenient) d20 heraldic shields which, while lacking historic accuracy, certainly contain easy icon imagery which can be the basis for your next kingdom or set of kingdoms. I like that we have a solid mix of mythic animals, astrological images, crosses, wheels, and tools.
Given that some of these icons are very similar, it is easy to imagine a few are related houses or united through marriage. Or roll 2d20 and mix two icons together. If you get the same one, have them be inverted colors representing a past rivalry now united into one house or bloodline-- or a recent split!
If you own Dolmenwood like I do, perhaps these could also be additional minor nobility under each of the larger houses in the setting. Dolmenwood's heraldic images are only a little more complex so again these 20 would fit right in.
