Creating a society/order?
Sir William:
Think I'll get me a set...I'm already a knight so that's acceptable w/regard to the group, no? I like the idea of the formation of other offices as necessity and time allow...let's keep it simple for the interim.
Sir Edward:

Yeah, if you'd like to get a set, please feel free. As far as I'm concerned, we're all knights, but we'll probably want to think about knighting each other properly once we get everything figured out. But I'm open to suggestions here.
BTW, it just occurred to me... color on color. Hah, violation of the rule of tincture (unless I'm overlooking something about having a charge over a division):
Also, it looks like this is the arms of his son, Sir William Marshal the 2nd Earl of Pembroke, as shown on the Magna Carta. What I'm trying to figure out is if he inherited it from his father, or if it was unique to him. If it's the latter, I'd like to find the arms of the Marshal we're specifically honoring.
SirNathanQ:
I think the 2nd in command should be chosen by the KC. The whole point is to have someone represent he KC while he's not present right? I think that the KC will best know who will do a good job representing him, the one whom we elected.
And I think that the 2nd in command would be our equal. He's just another knight with a fancy name while the KC is present. The only time the 2nd receives any extra powers is when the KC is not present, and then he simply does everything the KC does. I'm sure that the spot will command some respect and authority, but not any more than any other well acclaimed senior member.
and ooh, I like this idea about the spurs!

I believe the arms of William the elder were simply the red lion rampant on a field of green and yellow...all the extra decoration on the green side appears to have been The Younger's addition. I could be wrong, been known to happen. ;)
And I think I'll wait to see what the decision boils down to re: knighting of ourselves.
