I've been working up a table tent for my higher-level guy, and I went looking for a Calimshan or Almraiven flag or emblem (for SPOILER reasons). I was surprised that there doesn't seem to be an official one as far as I can tell. Does anyone know if there was one made somewhere? I do not really own much FR stuff, and the only reference I could find was in the old Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting Revised (for 2E, I believe), which says: "By royal decree, all ships of Calimport's navy and merchant fleet fly the flag of Calimshan: a gold field with blue lines slanting across it." (Emphasis mine.)

I have a fair number of 3E Forgotten Realms books, and I can find no mention of any coat-of-arms or flag for Calimshan in them -- but, I also note that there are relatively few such depictions for *any* land in those books.
The Forgotten Realms Wiki doesn't have anything, either, though large chunks of that Wiki don't seem to have been updated for the post-Spellplague (i.e., 4th Edition) Realms.

Doing a little bit of research, if we assume Calimshan has a Persian or Mamluk flavor, then the heraldry is usually depicted on a round shield. That being the case, I would propose this as an emblem to use on a table tent to indicate allegiance.
