Service Ribbons
Service Ribbons are In Character awards presented to characters for acts of heroism and participation in plots and campaigns.
Ribbons can be received at any time, but are generally presented alongside crew promotions. It is not uncommon for all members of a crew to receive campaign ribbons.
Specific Character Policy
Because service ribbons are In Character awards, they are NOT to be shared across characters and can only be displayed on the wiki profile of the specific character to whom they were awarded.
Multiple Citations Policy
Any general ribbon, ribbon of gallantry & heroism, or lifesaving ribbon may be awarded multiple times, but any campaign ribbon may only be awarded once. A gold star represents each repeated citation, and a silver star represents five additional citations (and therefore five gold stars).
