The Cluster of Graphite (CG) is awarded for drawing, rendering, photo manipulating or otherwise producing graphics or multimedia and artwork through competitions, unit graphics and character graphics. The requirements detailed below outline the policies in practice regarding awarding these medals.

It is a crystaline carbonite disk strengthened through a lengthy curing process that gives it a matt black surface, with rings embossed to support nine refined and embedded vorsian crystals decorating it in a circular pattern.
