The Nexum
The roles of the members of Qel-Droma may be diverse, but there is a single tenant held in the heart of every individual within the house: They work in the shadows.
All Qel-Dromans know this. But some are exemplars of this simple philosophy. These individuals are masters of shadow and the arts of subterfuge, those who have gone above and beyond, bled for their House.
Such an award is not something to boast of. It is not something to show off, to flash to others in arrogance. It is something to be held to oneself. A support of the knowledge that they have advanced the cause of Qel-Droma.
The Signatum
This award is simply called ‘The Signatum’. A series of runes in an unknown language along the right forearm of the awarded are tattooed. The tattoo is in a special ink, rendering it invisible unless subjected to ultraviolet light. If the right forearm is unusable, then the sternum is used.
Along with The Signatum, the awarded receives a weapon suited to their skills in the shadows. The Fang.
The Fang
The fang is not a dagger, a weapon for stabbing and piercing the foe, but a knife, a weapon made for cruel slashes, opening necks and arteries. It is hidden within a bracer on the left forearm, and can be drawn and sliced in a swift, silent movement. The blade is ceramic to avoid detection, the blade excessively sharp to whisper over the skin as it cuts.
Role
Those that have been blessed with The Signatum act as advisors to the leadership of Qel-Droma, a stable of elite minds bent towards the betterment of their house. The identity of these advisers is kept secret from other members, and therefore the rest of the brotherhood, ensuring they do not become targets of lesser assassins. They are known as Nexum, a title distinguishing oneself from all other Qel-Dromans. The greatest honour that only they can know. For to reveal your role to another will cost the Dark Jedi their life, hunted by their former brethren of The Nexum.
Criteria
The criteria for induction to the Nexum take into account both participation and achievement for the betterment of your House. In a major event (Vendetta, Great Jedi War or House event), an individual must have participation ratio of over 0.66, across all of the competitions in the event. Alongside such a ratio, a ratio of achieved Novae of 0.1 is required. In calculating the novae ratio, Gold novae count as 1.5 rather than 1, meaning Gold Novae are worth more.
