Renaissance looking piece I'm working on, not done yet but it's looking pretty cool. I need to get in the habit of actually using references tho . . .

would it be bad to create a jewish character with a cutaneous horn? its a skin tumor thats made of the same thing fingernails are and it often manifests on the face or scalp, and the character would have it surgically removed at a point in the story, but i dont want to be offensive considering the myth of jewish people having horns.

What are your opinions on Bloody Mummers or Brave Companions? They are cruel and have sigil of black goat with red horns.

Hi anon!

Whenever I consider the image of that red and black goat sigil, I remember this one:

The King's Crown was the Cradle, to hear her tell it; the Stallion was the Horned Lord; the red wanderer that septons preached was sacred to their Smith up here was called the Thief. (ASOS, Jon III)

and this one

The west had gone the color of a blood bruise, but the sky above was cobalt blue, deepening to purple, and the stars were coming out. Jon sat between two merlons with only a scarecrow for company and watched the Stallion gallop up the sky. Or was it the Horned Lord? He wondered where Ghost was now. He wondered about Ygritte as well, and told himself that way lay madness.

They came in the night, of course. Like thieves, Jon thought. Like murderers. (ASOS, Jon VII)

Horned Lord = Stallion.

And I know one character who is associated with the color purple, the title Stallion (That Mounts the World), and knows how to gallop across the sky.

With a foreign army patchworked out of sellswords, Dothraki and former Unsullied. Thieves. Murderers.

Whose sigil is red and black.

The Horned Lord.

Depictions of the devil became more common in the ninth century, where he is shown with cloven hooves, hairy legs, the tail of a goat, pointed ears, a beard, a flat nose, and a set of horns. Satan may have first become associated with goats through the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats, recorded in Matthew 25:31–46, in which Jesus separates sheep (representing the saved) from goats (representing the damned); the damned are thrown into a hell along with "the devil and his angels." (Wikipedia: Satan - in visual art )

We certainly know how Dany feels about sheep. Good eating for dragons. Or was that children?

I mean, it could all mean nothing, of course.
