There are several ribbons or awards that can apply to a character handle. Some of these add IC bonuses and some are thank yous that we extend to people that have added to the community. Others are used to help identify what roles people play around the site.

List of current ribbons and meanings:

1 Year badge given to characters who have been continuously active for one year. A Character that has been active for one year can have a Grand Master Stat.
5 Year badge given to characters who have been continuously active for five years. For characters that have been approved for more than 5 years, they get a bonus attack that they can add to one stat. More Information.
