So I recently began reading the Dresden Files and thought that it would be fun to expand and design rank insignia for the Wardens of the White Council. However, I don't have a graphics design program so I thought that I would describe my ideas and if anyone is interested then they are free to us my idea to design the insignias themselves to be posted as a reply to this message.
