    Duchy of Ulek Heraldry request/help

    So I'm starting a new D&D game and have come home to Greyhawk. The group has almost exclusively generated half-elves and we're going to start the game in the Duchy of Ulek.

    I am putting together a little primer together for them on the land and wanted to paste in a nice crest of the nation (I'm a sucker for the bling I guess) and was wondering if any of you knew where I could find a nice, clean image to use.

    The only one I have found online is a terribly blurred scan of the original.

    Anyway, thanks for your help.

    Hi. The website that used to present all the heraldry digitized for the LGH campaign no longer works. See http://manray.csuhayward.edu/dany/shields/shields1.html. The page was reportedly called, "Greyhawk Coats Of Arms," but I couldn't figure out how to access a cache of it (if any was made).

    I spent some time looking and couldn't find the one of the Duchy of Ulek. The best collection I found was at http://www.nyrond.org/turbine/page/university/heraldry/flanaess.html.

    It's possible that no such image was made because of the abort of the Hawaii campaign. However, I suggest contacting the digital artist, Dani Castillo, who originally digitized / reproduced these images for LGH. See http://www.lunadreams.com/contact.html.

    Sorry, I tried to find a good one, but all I found was this...

    http://members.aol.com/_ht_a/dreadwood/heraldry.htm

    Now if you needed one for the County of Ulek,... that I have.

    I do have a large version of the Duchy but it is very fuzzy.
    It could be photoshoped and repaired or just used for a template for a new one.

    Let me know if you want it.

    Cheers,

    Yeah, I'd love the large copy. You can Email it to hjorimir (at) gmail (dot) com.

    Thank you.

    I uploaded the aforementioned heraldry "shields.zip" file to my temp directory @ http://www.greyhawkonline.com/grodog/temp/shields.zip

    It's got the Duchy of Ulek, and a bunch of others, too. I haven't been able to track down the original artist, unfortunately, to see if they ever created the others.

    @ CF staff: perhaps we should add this to the downloads section?

    edit: Oops, the zip archive has the Duchy of Urnst, not Ulek. Sorry for the confusion.

    Hjorimir,

    Dungeon 137 has a new adventure set in the Duchy of Ulek.

    Tealpeck's Flood is for 6-12th level dungeoncrawlers.

    Might look into it.

    Not great, but you spend 15 minutes in Photoshop and you get what you pay for.
