According to the Codex, “The Steel Cross is awarded for extended service to one’s House or Clan, such as duties that aid a Quaestor or Aedile as well as being a mentor to others. Activity over a period of some time that goes above and beyond what is considered normal can also be rewarded with this award.”<br> <br> With Timbal's return to Scholae Palatinae, I had the opportunity to look over his dossier and recent contributions. One particular thing that I found noteworthy (and missing mention in his awards case) was the fact that he had updated each of Scholae Palatinae's Clan vessels' information - all eleven (11) ships. He adapted information from a twelve-page document he had written in the December of 2004 concerning all of the ships in the Clan's fleet. Additionally, because the details of some ships were never finalized, he took it upon himself to create histories for these ships in an impressive display of creativity and writing prowess.<br> <br> A month before he discovered the magic of the Wiki, he voluntarily wrote a superb five-page story about Desio Predator’s induction into the family of Palpatine – another contribution to the Clan’s lore while demonstrating dedication, loyalty, and kindness to a friend. Proconsul Phoenix later posted this story to the DJB.com’s main new page where it was met with great success among other Brotherhood peers (and many commented upon its length).<br> <br> Before transferring to Clan Tarentum, Timbal served on Scholae Palatinae’s Senate where he showed how much he cared for the Clan’s development by sending emails with lengths that could rival the legendary Goat (yes, that long) that covered nearly every angle of the issue at hand – on his mobile phone.<br> <br> Timbal has served Scholae Palatinae, as a whole through contributing in important decisions discussed among the Senate, for well over an “extended” period. Timbal also serves a mentor of the Clan because, as a former Consul, Son of Palpatine, and dedicated leader, both new members and stalwarts look up to him. His “activity” is of a different sort. It does not result in the accumulation of numerous awards and honors, but instead results in the forward progress of the Clan. Everything Timbal has done is not for individual glory, but for the success of the Clan as a united front.<br> <br> It is with great privilege and honor that I reward my brother and mentor this Steel Cross.<br> <br> Congratulations, Timbal. Remember, if you try to leave again, Phoenix will have to chain you up!<br> <br> --<br> RevengeX Palpatine<br> Quaestor of House Acclivis Draco
