*** '''Notes:''' <span style="font-family: &#39;Times New Roman&#39;,serif; font-size: 12pt;">Defender of the Silver Tynes is the Outlands AoA level award for Rapier. The Golden Ring and Keeper of the Portcullis are the Unser Hafen Baronial awards for Service and Combat respectively. Green Cords of Vatavia are given out for acts of service by non-Vatavians and make you an honorary member, eligible for the other awards. The Red Cord is for a Vatavian who wins a tournament. Both are non-armigerous. The Honor of the Far West Support is a non-armigerous honor (an award that may be given multiple times, as opposed to an order) of the Palatine Barony of the Far West. Order of the Empty Shell is given to everyone who leaves the Palatine Barony, and the Burdened Bouget is the service award. The Order of the Skipping Stones is a Baronial award given to those who start their career in Unser Hafen and go on to further the dream in other groups. The Order of the Cord is a Baronial award in the Barony of Lonely Tower, given as a sign of acceptance by the Barony. The Nobel’s Gratitude is an award for personal service to the Baron and Baroness of Unser Hafen. The Goose Migrant is the Lonely Tower award for extensive travel and representing the Barony well.</span>
