Pursuivant of Arms in Ordinary
A Pursuivant of Arms in Ordinary is a junior heraldic officer in the system of heraldry, primarily responsible for assisting higher-ranking heralds. They are often tasked with the duties of recording and maintaining coats of arms, as well as participating in ceremonial functions. Pursuivants typically wear a distinctive livery and may represent a specific region or organization.
In many heraldic traditions, such as those in England and Scotland, pursuivants hold a significant role in the College of Arms or the Court of the Lord Lyon. Their work helps preserve the history and significance of heraldic symbols, ensuring that the traditions of heraldry continue to thrive.
