[The Heraldry Shop]
A palette of smells greets patrons of the Heraldry Shop as mineral spirits, turpentine, and linseed oil compete for olfactory attention. But Bonime, the artist, allows no visual clutter: rows of paints and solvents, pots of brushes, and sketches on scraps of paper all occupy orderly places on walls and workbenches. A leather-bound catalog rests on a plain plank counter at the front of the shop. You also see a shield rack with some stuff on it and Bonime.
Obvious exits: north (to Blazons and Banners).

Page 2: STANCES
The charge you select for your shield may be blazoned in one of the following stances:
1 Affronte: | the beast looks squarely out of the shield. |
2 Combatant: | two rampant beasts facing each other. |
3 Couchant: | crouching, with the head up. |
4 Courant: | running like a greyhound. |
5 Dormant: | lying down in a sleeping position. |
6 Passant: | walking, with head forward and a forepaw raised. |
7 Rampant: | rearing on one hind leg, with three paws raised. |
8 Sajant: | seated on its haunches. |
9 Salient: | leaping in the air. |

Obviously, charges like birds that lack paws cannot be shown as passant or rampant.
