Vert an inescutcheon tierced per fesse Argent, Cendrée and Sable.

Purpure an inescutcheon tierced per fesse Sable, Cendrée and Argent.
I was very taken with the inversion of tones between the ace and aro flags, so I echoed it in these shields.
An aromantic #PrideShield
Vert an inescutcheon tierced per fesse Argent, Cendrée and Sable.
#heraldicpride detail; The inescutcheon is a smaller shield within a larger one (the escutcheon).
A bear #PrideShield
Pean, in first quarter a bear paw Tenné armed Argent.
Pean here is a fur, a variant of Ermine, so most of this shield is covered in black fur. The tincture for the paw, Tenné, is one of those known as a stain, but, as before with Murrey, I think we can use it as an honourable colour in this context.
It is a paw, rather than a print, since it allows the claws to be tinctured separately. They’re silver, a gleaming metal amongst the dark fur of the field.
Party per fesse Rose and Bleu celeste, countercharged a fesse chequy. Over all a palet Argent.
#heraldicpride details and comments in 🧵
Party per chevron reversed enhanced, the upper portion sable and the lower tierced per pale Argent, Vert and Cendrée.
Party per chevron couched sinister enhanced, the dexter portion tierced per fesse Azure, Fuchsia and Purpure, in chief dexter a heart Or, the sinister portion Argent.

As promised, a #NoCopsAtPride shield! A statement in heraldic language.
Azure a bar chequy Argent and Sable, gored sinister Tenné.
The principle blazon (blue with chequered stripe) is just to represent police, but the gore is a special and seldom seen thing.
Technically known as an abatement, it is used to signify cowardice and dishonour. It boldly declares "You are not welcome, dishonourable coward, be gone!"
