I've always been curious what her personal sigil is.

[Olivia]

Very good question! Maybe it's some variant on the Damodred tree-and-crown. In any case, I don't think her personal sigil is something she'd use often. Even a personal sigil of royalty doesn't carry the same prestige as just sealing it with her Aes Sedai ring. Besides, she probably doesn't want to 1) remind people of her heritage 2) seem like a partisan Cairhienin/Damodred instead of an aloof AS.

Except she has used her House one (with Thom no less) which is why I started wondering about it. I mean she is always on and on about not going by her surname, and yet that's the sigil she uses? Of course, I imagine she picked her seal when an adolescent so it might just be a case of embarrassment.

Like a happy kitten in yarn or something.

Or a tree with a mustache

IIRC, that was an error that was corrected in later editions. When Thom gets the letter in LoC, it is sealed with her Great Serpent ring.

I like it the original way. Are we sure they didn't change the fires of heaven ref? *clings*

[Ekho]

Maybe she can change her personal seal to include a grey fox in it .

That could encourage her to acually use it.

[Marie]

Or maybe a harp.

[~Romanda~]

A harp smoking a pipe with a mustached kitty, all in shades of blue.
