A "Heraldic Beast" refers to a creature used in heraldry, the practice of designing and displaying coats of arms and other heraldic symbols. These beasts can be real or mythical and are often depicted in a stylized manner. Common examples include lions, eagles, and dragons, each symbolizing different qualities such as bravery, nobility, or strength. Heraldic Beasts are typically featured on shields, banners, and other insignia, representing families, organizations, or nations. They play a significant role in the visual language of heraldry, helping to convey identity and lineage. The use of these creatures dates back to the Middle Ages, particularly in Europe, where they became integral to noble and royal emblems.
