Awards are given for winning in competitive activities as well as participating in works of merit within the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. Some awards are medals, while others are ceremonial weapons and devices. The categories of medals include competitions, merit, and sacramental awards for service to one's House, Clan, or the entire Brotherhood as a whole. Some awards are given based on knowledge, leadership, skill, participation, gaming victories, or mentorship; each award varies with the accomplished task.
Often awards are granted either at certain occasions and not regularly given out. For example, during Great Jedi Wars, novae are given out but are not granted during any other time. The Silver Sash is only given out once a year, while Seals of Loyalty are granted to those who show exemplary devotion to the Brotherhood twice a year in celebrations of occasions such as the Exodus or the Day of the Fox. The Golden Lightsaber - the most prestigious award in the Brotherhood - has recently only been considered for those who have served as a Grand Master to the DJB.
