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

* TURTLE: The Turtle is one of the most noble figures, being a symbol of the Knight who retires late from combat, facing his enemy until the last moment, trusting in his own strength.

* LAMB: The Lamb symbolizes the Kings and Leaders who have to sacrifice themselves to the good and care of their subjects; also denotes in the whiteness of fleeces, Qualified Nobility.

* SPARROWHAWK: The Sparrowhawk is a symbol of Cunning.
