Sigil

Sigils are common on military items in Awaristros. Every shield, sword and armor used by soldiers of the royal army bear sigils. The act of placing a sigil on each item was devised by Percival the Faithful after he failed to identify his old friend after he died in a battle. Therefore, he came up with the idea of placing unique sigils on every item used by the royal army so the bodies of the fallen soldiers can be identified. It is most visible and prominent on the Iron Kite Shields used by the soldiers.
