A Defunct chapter of the Emerald Hills , located in Stephenville, TX.

Heraldry

The original concept for the Broke Bridge Heraldry integrated large amounts of detail and was never truly used by the Broken Bridge Shire, it never made it out of the planning stage. The Heraldry consisted of a bridge viewed from the side with a gap in its midsection. Three figures could be seen in the canyon below standing among the ruined bridge sections a Druid, a Wizard and a Warrior. To the left of the bridge stood a company of Uruk-hai and Goblins while to the right could be seen a village. In the sky flew a Black Dragon hovering over the bridge. The Wizard stood with his staff outstretched, emitting a yellow light from its tip.
