Playing Cards and Games Theme Pack

Heraldry long predates playing cards but they can make useful charges. This theme pack contains the following items:

The Suit Symbols

The following charges representing the four suits are available:

playing card club, playing card diamond, playing card space, playing card heart

Note that these are different charges to proper heraldic charges with similar names. For brevity you can use card club for example (but NOT just club). The symbols are always the appropriate colour so any tincture given is ignored, but you can use proper if desired.

The Card Characters

The following charges showing the characters found on the cards are available:

Jack, Queen, King, Joker

The characters are always of fixed colours so any tincture given is ignored, but you can use proper if desired.

Individual Playing Cards

All of the individual playing cards can be used, for example playing card eight of hearts, or just king of clubs. The playing cards are always the appropriate colour so any tincture given is ignored, but you can use proper if desired. You can also use card red joker or card black joker.

In addition, you can also have a card face down with card back, in this case the tincture of the card back must be given.

Hands of Cards

Groups of 5 cards held in a fan arrangement are also available, you can have a winning hand of playing cards, a losing hand of playing cards, or just a hand of cards. You can shorten the first two, for example just a winning hand.

Other Games

You can also use individual chess pieces, chess king, chess queen, chess pawn, chess bishop, chess knight, chess castle
