Law changes needed:
Currently, awards without registered names will not be given until this is corrected. Two awards require registering. Bear of Northshield is a registerable name and will be submitted. Nordbandr – Award of the Bravura will be submitted. Group service award needs a name.
Passport requirement to fight in a Crown list will be moved into law. One member of the couple only will be required. This is to increase fairness and ensure accessibility to all groups in the kingdom.
