Protocol for Heralds

Ealdormere’s Book of the Court is our manual of ceremonies. It chronicles some of our kingdom’s traditions, developed throughout Ealdormere’s history. This book reflects changes to reflect the needs of those involved with court. It is meant to be a template when needed for “default ceremonies” or a stepping stone to something more elaborate, period, or personal.

This book also has content to support voice heraldry, field heraldry, and standard feast and celebratory toasts.
