Description
Foremost among the accouterments of a Dark Jedi’s formal attire, the Silver Sash denotes a being of true merit that embodies what it means to serve. The sash is a finely woven blend of cortosis fibers and armorweave cloth. A scaled pattern is stitched in relief upon the fabric symbolizing protection for its wearer. The edges are run with silver piping that set off this otherwise matte ornamentation against one’s robes. The bearer of this award commands respect and admiration in equal measure.
Awarded for
While the Seal of Loyalty recognizes numerous members of the Brotherhood, the Silver Sash instead recognizes only one such member every year for their outstanding allegiance and consistent service to the Brotherhood over the course of that year. Recipients of the Silver Sash are the true pillars of the Dark Brotherhood, many times foregoing their own personal goals and instead working towards the betterment of the club as a whole. A member may only be rewarded this honor once. The Silver Sash is usually awarded on the Anniversary of the Split (April 13th).
Trivia
The reason that the ID Line code for this award is SL rather than the more logical SS is because at the time of its creation, the Brotherhood was still part of the Emperor's Hammer, which had another award using SS.
