This Coat of Arms, as designed by the Dreaded Rear Admiral, represents all that a River Jackal stands for. His description of the elements that lie within the sketch give all who look upon it some insight as to why the Jackals hold this symbol in such high esteem.
Starting at the top of the shield (acting as the Helm where traditional a military helmet would sit showing the rank or social status of a group) I put the head of a Jackal. This particular head was rendered after the Egyptian God Anubis the protector of the dead during their journey in the afterlife. For the Mantling, or the background for the Helm and Shield that represents the protective covering worn by knights for protection from the elements and decreasing damage to ones helmet in battle, I used the design from a particular Polish Coat of Arms I found. Moving on to the shield itself I added two pistols the primary arsenal of a Jackal and representing How a Jackal must be prepared for anything. Below the pistols you will see a jug of moonshine, at the core of every Jackal you will find a bootlegger, more importantly a rebel. To the left of that a blade. This particular blade was sketched after the crude handmade knife of Rambo 4 representing that a Jackal is capable of anything when pushed and to a Jackal floating is easy as breathing. Appearing behind the shield is two hand made sassafras paddles a Jackal's paddle is his signature his fingerprint and most importantly his number one tool on his journey. Underneath the shield are the supporters, two dead armadillos holding up the shield. These armadillos represent the insatiable desire of a Jackal and how he will stop at nothing to reach his destination. Lastly the motto lies under that completing the Coat of Arms
