badges are always installed into the badge-holder in the same way. A specialist called a badger carves an appropriately shaped opening, slightly too small, in the exoskeleton of the badge wearer. The badge is then fitted tightly into the opening, and glued, burnished, and finally enameled in the appropriate color.

When for whatever reason a badge must be revoked by the badge-awarding organization, it is simply painted over with indelible dye rather than physically removed. The inadequacy of this method means that groups are well-advised not to award badges indiscriminately. Former officeholders do not usually have their badges revoked; it is done only as a measure of disgrace.

-632 EC: Court issues preliminary executive order deciding that the infant should be dissolved into paste with powerful alchemical reagents and distributed by volume. -630 EC: Court issues charter for "The Institute for Reactive Chemistry in Pursuit of Civil Justice" (IRCPCJ) "established for the research and development of a reagent appropriate to the flesh and exoskeleton of children without undue suffering on the part of the subject."

Dendel’s stripes are a set of three bands on a Ghyllian’s carapace, differing significantly in color from the green that makes up the rest of the carapace. The colors depend on where the Ghyllian possessing them was born.
