Sigil entrances
Entrance animations on the locked sigil. Each loops every 5.5s.
Scratchpad
Code-drawn sigil
Circle → heptagon → {7/2} star, point-down. Pure SVG, thick strokes,
recolors per theme. Compare against nav-logo.png.
Weave pass
Double-line struts, over-under
Each arm is a ribbon (two parallel lines); the strand weaves over and under itself at every crossing, so the lines never solid-overlap.
Round three
Thicker star, segmented band, heavier ring
Fatter woven ribbon, a segmented masonry band along the heptagon, and a beefier outer circle.
Round four
Small crosses — tips + inner notches
Round-three base plus small plus-marks scattered on the star tips and in the notches between arms.
Round five
Inner crosses removed — tips only
Notch crosses dropped; the plus-marks sit on the 7 star tips only.
Round six
Fat, filled white crosses on the star
Chunky white plus-marks seated in each of the 7 star-tip wedges.
Round seven
Round four, interior crosses removed
Extends round four: the same tip crosses (unchanged size + position), with the inner-notch crosses dropped.
Round eight
Solid star, still woven
Extends round seven: the star arms are solid dark struts (no hollow interior) but keep the over-under weave. Crosses now read as true white.
Round nine
Pointier tips, repaired weave
Extends round eight: sharp mitered star tips, and the over-under overlaps re-sized per crossing so the weave reads correctly on the fat ribbon.
Round ten
Filled tip crosses
Extends round nine: the star-tip crosses are solid filled (dark) rather than outlines.
Round eleven
Crosses oriented to the tips
Extends round ten: each tip cross is rotated so its top arm points radially outward, toward the star point of its triangle.
Lockup
Full logomark — sigil + wordmark, one SVG
The locked round-eleven sigil with The Marble Shrine set in
Marcellus SC beside it — a single self-contained SVG. Proportions mirror
the live header exactly: gap, type size, and vertical centring are the
SVG-unit equivalents of the header's --sp-3 gap,
--fs-lg text against a 36px sigil, and -0.05em
tracking. Recolors per theme via --logo-ink.
