Renier Family Crest

Post by Drinnik Shoehorn »

Hey all.

Been trying for days to find the Renier family crest because I'm sure I've seen it somewhere or atleast read a description, but I can't.

Does anyone know what it looks like?

Im thinking it was in the Dungeon mag adventure Van Richten's Legacy: The Herbalist's Shop from dragon 260

Nope, I just browsed through it, and it's not in there, or in the "Cult of Simon Audaire" one.

I'd thought it was in the loose pages in the original Black Box set, where it has individual thingies for some of the families... but it wasn't...

That said, I have to admit that I've never run across the Renier family crest anywhere, so I wouldn't know where to look. There wasn't a crest in Jacqueline Renier's card in the new Tarokka, and the description of printed money in GazIII merely says that the various houses put their coat-of-arms on the coins but doesn't describe any of them. LotB didn't have it when I just skimmed over it a second ago, and I don't recall any of the 2nd Ed books having crests...

Would it be in either of the two novels, Scholar of Decay or that short story in Tales of Ravenloft? I don't have access to either of them and haven't read them either.

I leafed through 'Scholar of Decay', and while the crest was referred to at least twice (doorknockers have worn symbol, and letter from Louise has wax seal with emblem), I didn't see a description of it. I saw nothing about it in Tales of Ravenloft 'Nocturne'.
I only wish I had retired sooner!
