Each Kingdom has its own College of Heralds (CoH). In the Middle Kingdom the Dragon Principal Herald is the leader of the CoH. The body of the college consists of all warranted group pursuivants, at-larges, and senior titled heralds. The purpose of the CoH is to promote the practice of heraldry within our kingdom. The duties of the local pursuivants are listed elsewhere in this resource.
