* RAVEN: The Raven is a symbol of the Bold and Courageous Spirit that risks itself in defense of its benefactors.

* TIGER: The Tiger represents Fierceness and Valour; Resentment; Dangerous if aroused.

* WOLF: The Wolf is a symbol of a Constant Heart that suffers the calamities of war and siege with generous spirit; but when the time comes to fight in the open field, he fiercely fights, without giving his enemy a barracks.

* WALL: The Wall represents the Noble Heart of the Knight, in which no betrayal or disloyalty can enter.

* PANELA: The Panelas are figures similar to a heart and are a symbol of Vigilant Vassal.

* CINQUEFOIL: The Cinquefoils symbolize Hope and Joy.

* LEBREL: The Lebrels denote Burning and Courage in undertaking dangers, with such decision, that they need to contain their effort. The Boar symbolizes Dauntless and Boldness.
