Type:	Merit

Lower:	Dark Cross
[ Source ]

Descriptions

Cast from a solid disk of carvanium, the backing of the cross is inlaid with a decorative inner ring of bronzium that features glyphs representing the infinite power of dark might. The circlet’s center is dominated by three massive onyx shards carved from the claws of the predatory graul of Dantooine. The deeply burnished “jewels” represent the three insoluble Orders of the Brotherhood. The Anteian stands apart from the other “traditional” crosses of the Brotherhood in that it pays homage to the origins of the word from its namesake’s culture. “Cross”, in the old Anteian dialects, literally translates into Basic as “joining of three”.

Awarded For

Recipients of this award have shown consistent and dedicated service to one’s Battle Team or House by having displayed a greater than average amount of activity over a period of several weeks that included participation in several projects, events or competitions.
