Submissions Herald

The External Submissions Herald of a kingdom is responsible for the process of forwarding submissions from the kingdom College of Heralds to the College of Arms of the SCA. This primarily involves writing the Letter of Intent to Register (since 2007, this is done via the "Online System for Commentary and Response" [OSCAR]). Also, the External Submission Herald is responsible for packaging up the required submissions forms and mailing them to the College of Arms.

This process follows a period of internal review of submissions. In Caid, this review is performed at monthly meetings of the College of Heralds and decisions whether to forward or return each submission are made by the Crescent Principal Herald. This differs from most kingdoms, where the internal commentary process is conducted via correspondence, and decisions are made by an Internal Submissions Herald.

Since 2003, Dolphin Herald has served as External Submissions Herald.
