My link in the OP?

HURMPH.  Give me a sec, Tiruin.
Yep, that link. x3 It hates me for some reason. :(

Granted, the two you linked here work perfectly. (One second and its finished loading.  :o I'm even surprised given my slow net.)

Thanks you. Will now finish later as I'll get my colors in shape. :>

I'll join this one if I am struck with inspiration.  I have my next role in mind for a typical BYOR, but there's no way I could shoehorn it into this.  Plus, I would insist in fitting some sort of pun into the heraldry, as is expected.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.

To be honest... I've been praying someone would send in a robot or something like that.  That's actually a possibility that's been planned for months ahead.

So, as long as it's not something like a specific rock band or whatever with a specific cultural context...

I think you scared them away from random things.

I mean, it's a herald, it can literally be anything, right?

Yeah!  Sorry about that.  It really is "anything goes."  It's just that, for example, if you put in "Metallica" you'll get "Metallica as a group of roving troubadours" or whatever.  And if you put in "The Starship Enterprise" I might have you be a member of a scouting naval voyage, or maybe add aliens to the setting somehow, I dunno.

I was only trying to say that you may not get exactly what you put in.  I see those other sorts of entrants as a personal challenge :>  So please, have fun and submit whatever you'd like.

I didn't guess robots would be in the list of 'things I can send Vector that jives with anything near Denmark of North Germany..or probably Sweden. :I'

But now I've an idea!

The kitchenette mold free, you move on to the pantry. it's nasty in there. The bacon is grazing on the lettuce. The ham is having an illicit affair with the prime rib, The potatoes see all, know all. A rat in boxer shorts smoking a foul smelling cigar is banging on a cabinet shouting about rent money.

It's a BYOR! Bring what YOU want. It just might get tweaked a bit to fit the story.

Also, where's that ASCII spider...?

Less Rancor is better. Preserve the mystery.
