Has anyone captured any of the symbolism used to represent the various factions in the Malazan world?
I know the bridge burners, of course, but what are the others?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Malazan Empire: Flag -> burgundy and grey, Imperial sigil -> taloned hand holding a crystal globe

The Liberation Army of Caladan Brood: Green and silver banners with a horse on it. I guess green background with silver horse makes the most sense ^^

Tiste Andii: Midnight black banners

Tiste Edur: Grey banners

Pre-Empire Itko Kan: Green

Talian League: Dark Blue

Crimson Guard Banner: Silver Dragon on a Crimson Field

There is definitly more mentionend in the books, especially in Path to Ascendancy, but those were the things I remembered or knew where to look for. Maybe I can look for more later

A nice Mod (if one exists ... ) might want to edit the thread title. Otherwise people might get confused when expecting:

Bonehunter standard - House of Chains - Chapter 11

Quote

His gaze travelled up to one of the Fourteenth's new standards, barely visible through clouds of roiling dust up ahead. She had understood the whole thing with the finger bones well enough, understood the turning of the omen. The new standard well attested to that. A grimy, thin-limbed figure holding a bone aloft, the details in shades of dun colours that were barely visible on the yellow ochre field, the border a woven braid of the imperial magenta and dark grey. A defiant figure standing before a sandstorm.

Bonehunter sigil - The Bonehunters - Chapter 18

Quote

He had seen the sigil, the decoration the Adjunct had presented to Faradan Sort at what should have been her courtmartial, and to the mute child Sinn – not that she was in truth mute, Bottle knew. The urchin just had very little to say to anyone, barring her brother Shard. The sigil…in silver, a city wall over which rose ruby flames, and the sloped tel beneath that wall, a mass of gold human skulls. The echo of the Bridgeburners' old sigil was not accident – no, it was sheer genius. T'amber's genius.

By the end of that same day, iron needles and silk threads were out as blunted fingers worked with varying degrees of talent, and military-issue cloaks found a new decoration among the soldiers of the Fourteenth Army. To go along with dangling finger bones, the occasional bird skull and drilled teeth.

Now it's "Malian". Cheeky sods.
