Mon

Mon is a term used for Rokugani family crests.

They are somewhat like coats of arms in that they are either associated with a particular family, or an individual who has achieved some variety of public recognition.

Crests add formality to a kimono. Also it displays the person's affiliation to those around him/her.

Clan Mon
The Clan has it's own mon depicting their respective animals. For example the Crab Clan has a Crab on their mon.

Family Mon
The Family Mon also usually has some connection to the Clan. For example the Matsu family Mon has a Lion's paw holding a katana and the Asako family Mon has a hand holding a flaming feather.
