Upon our elevation to Kingdom status, Avacal's first King and Queen, Albrecht von Rügen and Nasheeta al-Rakkasa, retired its previous Principality awards and created a new series of awards for their populace. These new awards can be seen below, along with their registered badges. Each award description is based on the information found on the Kingdom of Avacal's Seneschal's page (under "Documents").
