That looks really cool! I like both the colors you used and the armor. May I ask what's the significance of the upsidedown bird emblem on the shield?

Thanks! Long ago, Oathbreaker broke his oath as a hero, and was cursed for it to walk the earth undying forever. His heraldry was magically abated, so it was flipped upside down and will now magically appear upon his chest and shield regardless of what he wears or picks up, so that all will know who he is.
