Dark blue shield-shaped icon with yellow script text 'Cal' centered on the shield. White flame-like accents extend from the top of the shield, with pixelated edges. The icon has a solid white background. The shield shape is rounded at the bottom and tapers slightly at the top. The yellow text 'Cal' is stylized with a cursive font, featuring a prominent curved 'C' and a connected 'a' and 'l'. The white accents have jagged, pixelated edges and are positioned above the shield's top curve. The icon's overall style is pixelated, consistent with early digital graphics.
