This is very good. It reminds me of the fellow I've seen at Pennsic who's
arms are;

        per pale, or and purpure, a keyhole counterchanged

Now he insists that he always displays this on the type of shield called a
heater, and that the keyhole is often something one peeps through, thus
making his arms a per pale peep hole heater.

And then there's one of my Bros in the Midrealm who's mundane last name is
Hankey, and who's arms are a key within a hangman's noose.

Though we are not now that strength, which in old days moved earth and heaven,
that which we are, we are. One equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time
and fates, but strong in will. To strive, to seek, to find and not to yield.
