There are two things a #stonefly takes seriously: its pronotum and its wing venation.
Stonefly lore is full of heroes with large pronota (the collar type thing just behind the head) and their coat-of-arms features wings with the most intricate venation. It's almost comical, really, but don't tell them that - stoneflies are easily offended and angry stoneflies are no fun.
