Taurian Concordat

Taurian Concordat	Award	Information
	[[Image:|150px|center]] The Taurian Brand	This is based on a long-established tradition in which soldiers are allowed to use body art to signify a great event. Older even than the Concordat and thought to have its origins in the 'Native American' ethnic group from Terra, it was first introduced as a military tradition during the Taurians' first run-in with House Davion. During that battle, a popular naval commander was scarred by laser fire across his brow, the burn creating a mask-like scar and robbing him of his sight. To honor their commander and commemorate the event, many survivors tattooed a red mask around their eyes. When a regiment or special command has performed a feat or been involved in an action that confers on them the instant acclaim of the Taurian people, this privilege must be requested by a regimental commander. The Senior Marshal awards it to the entire unit, though recipients must also have the permission of their battalion commander. One direct, name-bearing descendant per generation may take the Brand. MechWarriors are also allowed to paint the Brand on their machines. The Brand is not always a mask over the eyes; each time the Brand is awarded the facial tattoo is different and unique to the event it was awarded for. NO person is yet known to bear more than a single Brand.
	The Hyades Heart	This decoration is given to individuals who have undergone great personal sacrifice in defending the Concordat. In the name of valiant final stands, it is often given posthumously. The few living recipients range from those left scarred and disabled to one soldier who was forced to lead a fight through his village, and who has to live with the fact that he was responsible for sacrificing his family and most of his friends. The award is a white heart trimmed in goldleaf, dangling from a gold and blood-red ribbon.
	The Standard of Taurus	For those who somehow epitomize a standard to which all Taurian soldiers might hope to aspire, this award may be given. Extreme bravery, proven dedication, exceptional talent, an unimpeachable moral code; these are all possible inspirations for the award. Indeed, a Standard of Taurus has been won for each of them several times over. The Senior Marshal or a Corps Marshal hands out the award. It is the Concordat emblem hanging from a gold bar.
	Concordat Sunburst	Awarded to an individual or dedicated to a group who managed to win an awe-inspiring victory for the Concordat. Such a victory is usually in the face of seemingly impossible odds, nearly thwarted by unforeseen conditions or otherwise of such a magnitude of success that it demands attention. A request for the Taurian Brand usually follows the reception of this award. The sunburst is a gold disk with eight tines radiating outward (total diameter, ten centimeters). The tines are edged in red enamel. In the center of the disk is the emblem of the Taurian Concordat. The Protector presents this award.
