Any member can receive a general award. One general award, per vessel, is allowed per ceremony.

Awards General Tosma1 2011.jpg
TOSMA: The Order of Starfleet Merit and Achievement First Class. This award is given to members who show great dedication in their behavior and simming abilities. A candidate for TOSMA regularly contributes good, solid ideas to the plot and character development. They also take the time to edit and proofread their sims to ensure quality in their writing.
Awards General GenesisAward 2011.jpg
Genesis Award: The Most Improved Simmer Award. For officers who show conspicuous effort in improving their simming skills.
Awards General ScottyCross 2011.jpg
Scotty Cross: Given to an officer who shows extreme creativity while solving a plot dilemma or in-character plot twist.
Awards General Neelix 2011.jpg
Neelix Award: For extra, out-of-character simming devotion. This includes, but isn't limited to, helping fellow officers who are in need of simming aid, visibility on the forums, OOC list presence, upkeep of wiki pages, etc.
Awards General NebulaBar 2011.jpg
Nebula Bar: Awarded to a simmer who has shown great imagination when creating or expanding upon planets, stars, stellar phenomena, and other physical environments and settings, such that these settings create a convincing, descriptive, realistic environment that inspires other simmers or enhances the flow of a given plot.
Laudean Commendation.png
Laudean Commendation: Awarded for achievements in exploration with new lifeforms. The recipient will have shown great creativity in many facets of species creation or expansion, including physiological, psychological, cultural, social, and more, and their creativity will inspire their fellow simmers. The Laudean Commendation can cover many aspects of species development, but should primarily be based in IC simming.
Awards General SilverPalm 2011.jpg
Silver Palm: Awarded to a simmer who has consistently boosted the morale of their crew. The recipient will be known to be able to add that spark to a plot whenever it may be lagging, or may be able to consistently bring enjoyment or a bit of humour to the sim, whilst keeping such sims relevant and realistic.
Awards General SheathedSword 2011.jpg
Sheathed Sword: Presented to those to decide to inflict mental and/or physical trauma on their character, and then dive into the resulting emotions and choices in a realistic manner. The name comes from a line in a Robert Jordan book where a warrior must be prepared to 'sheath the sword' in their own body, i.e. take a grievous wound to achieve one's goal (in this case, more realistic simming) as opposed to an actual goal of the character.
Awards General BPlot 2011.jpg
B-Plot Award: For those simmers who manage to show a good portion of the character's life despite the demands of the main plot.
Awards General RussBar 2011.jpg
Russ Bar: The Russ bar is awarded to a writer whose knowledge of Trek lore is extraordinary. Named for Tim Russ, the actor who played Tuvok on Star Trek: Voyager, who was already a dedicated Star Trek fan before securing the role on the show.
Awards General Pathfinder 2015.png
Pathfinder Award: Given to those who have shown great care in the mentoring of fellow members.
Awards The Khan Award.png
Khan Award: Awarded to a simmer who thoughtfully develops a three-dimensional villain over the course of a mission or more.

Vega Award.png
Vega Award: Awarded to those who bring the worlds of their crews to life with art, videos, and all kinds of artistic endeavours.
O'Brien Award.png
O'Brien Award: Named for one of Trek's most stalwart and dedicated supporting officers, we give this award to members who hold the rank of Lieutenant or Lt. Commander and support the ship's command staff by mentoring crew, facilitating missions, maintaining the wiki and other tasks essential to the smooth running of our sims. These officers form the backbone of their ships and stations, helping to make simming fun for everyone aboard.
