The pattern depicted is a fur. The standard colors are black on white, which is called ermine. There are also names for white on black, black on yellow, and yellow on black. I selected purple as the background color because it is the color of Ruornil.
So is a fur in the color of Ruornil.

I have a file of each color in the shape of a shield, it is dark on the edges and and bright in the middle. When I add an element, its done on a separate layer. I color it using the color of the shield as a pattern, so things on the shield share the lighting pattern of the background.
I can make the Kozlovnyy a blood red color, Murry, which I've only used once so far.

The title of Vladimir Nikailov is baron it doesn't sound either Vos or Khinasi to me. Can we change that to something different, something like Kniaz, Zhupan, grand Zhupan, Tsar, Woywod or Voivod, Kaghan, Khan, Ban or something else ?
I will try to explain some of them; Kniaz is old Slavic title,the first Russian rulers had titles of Kniaz, it is similar to the western meaning of the title Duke.
Zhupan is ruler of Zhupa; Zhupa means province, it is a title used by southern and western branch of Slavs and Hungarians, so Grand Zhupan means ruler of many provinces.
Woywod is title similar to the western title of Duke, the term derives from the Slavic roots voi or voj (war, or battle) and vodi (to lead), and thus originally meant war leader.
Ban, The word ban derives from South Slavic ban "lord, master, ruler", cognate with Persian ban "prince, lord, chief, governor" and Sanskrit pati "guardian, protector". The word is preserved in many modern-day place names.
Others believe the word originates from Sarmatian bajan. According to one theory, the title of ban derived from the name of an Avar khagan, Bajan. There are alternative theories concerning Illyrian origin and the Illyrian name Banius, which is to be found on Illyrian remains in Bosnia.
Khagan or Great Khan is a title of imperial rank in the Turkic and Mongolian languages equal to the status of emperor and someone who rules a Khaganate. It may also be translated as Khan of Khans, equivalent to King of Kings.
Any ideas ?Last edited by cccpxepoj; 09-03-2008 at 06:49 PM.

System of nobility titles in Vosgaard is very different from russian or turk. So let it be baron. On the other side, baron can be anuirean equivalent for vos title. I have no problems with tsarevic as lord of tsars - we're here for game, not for historical precision. And Nikailov's ancestor can made his exotic title for fancy - he was conqueror and self-made man, after all. Northern Khinasi was under anuirean/haelinite ifluence, so this was possible. And Nikailov surely was not great emperor, so no Kagans, Shah-in-Shahs and Tsarevics.
And about mongol terms - no noyons in all the Cerilia. Pity.

Well, you're the Eastern European, Cccp, but "Vladimir Nikalov" sounds suitably Vos (Russian/Slavic) to my British ears.
