* FIRE: The Fire is a symbol of Magnanimity, Burning and Promptness in performances or intellectual tasks.

* TURTLE: The Turtle is one of the most noble figures, being a symbol of the Knight who retires late from combat, facing his enemy until the last moment, trusting in his own strength.

* TIGER: The Tiger represents Fierceness and Valour; Resentment; Dangerous if aroused.

* CHEVRON: The Chevron symbolizes the boots and spurs, and for this reason it was granted as an adornment of the shield to the Knight who was wounded from the combat in his legs.
