[Requiem-Kincaid] House di Milan seal (ooc post)
OOC entry:
For those of you who have had letters, etc from Kincaid and wondered what exactly the House di Milan symbol looked like, see the icon. :)
The serpent/crown/baby is actually the very old seal for the duchy of Milan, in the real world. Those italians were fucked up (yes, it is in fact eating the child). The House di Milan differs in that it uses a green serpent, not a blue one.
The sword it is coiled around is in fact the daeva clan symbol altered. Back when she was part of the Clan, the rose was part of the symbol too. When Kincaid left the clan (about 200 years ago) the rose disappeared from the seal, so that only the sword remained.
For those of you who play di Milan, steal as you will. I have a larger version of the serpent/crown/child I can send. Each member of the di Milan (i.e. those that Kincaid has acknowledged as di Milan _and_ of her blood[1]) can choose to replace the sword with something else that the snake coils around. A pen, a quill, an ax, scythes.. etc. :)
[1] If you aren't sure Kincaid has done so, then ask me, I'll let you know if you count as full di Milan.
