Help fix boring Helm

Sir William:
Was a 'flayed man' ever used?  Been reading Game of Thrones, some of their charges are just wildly fascinating to me.  Or the use of dead animals as your banner.  Probably wouldn't go over well with the family crowds of the RFs.  lol

I have a feeling a wyvern is like a dragon, but could you clarify?  And which peoples would've used one?  You lol'd with bonnacon, what is that, pray tell?

Sir Brian, ever since I saw A Knight's Tale, I've wanted a fist on the end of my lance.  You know, I typed that and it struck me as somehow odd or off.  lol

Sir Edward:
A wyvern is a dragon that has only two legs (like a bird, its "arms" are actually the wings).

A bonnacon is a period mythical beast that is, well, rather interesting. Lord Rodney has one on his shield on our roll of arms.  (http://bestiary.ca/beasts/beast80.htm). It's like a bison or ox, but farts out explosions of flaming dung that incinerate the countryside. :)

Sir James A:
Bonnacons :D

Also, even if we repeat the same animal charges, there's always colors as a difference. I have a white lion. Sir Brian has a gold griffin. That leaves a bunch of other colors of the same charges too.

Sir Patrick:

That sounds like a cool project. Maybe someday...

Sir William:
Didn't one of our brethren do one of those, with an explosive representation of the effluence of gas?  A bonnacon I mean.
