General

  • Discreet, formal awards for achievement in the Perplex City Academy Games
  • Awarded not soley to winners, but to competitors who have most stretched their personal boundaries over the course of a competition
  • Worn on the sleeve as a quiet, humble way of showing pride in self and city
  • In ancient times, Leitmarks were awarded for cunning tactics during the heat of combat, battle-winning strategy, or on rare occasions even for personal valor
  • Secret societies and religious groups have produced their own Leitmarks, to recognize one another discreetly in a public forum
  • The people of Perplex City seem divided for and against giving Leitmarks to Earth-based Cube hunters.


Known awards

  • The City Star, presented by the Perplex City Council to popular rock band Roll For Damage, for their strong public stance to get youth involved in political issues
  • 333 Earth residents received a special Leitmark in parcels from Sente for volunteering to hunt for the Cube.
  • Customers purchasing a started package from the Firebox catalogue received a Leitmark reading "LOST"
  • Virutal Leitmarks are awarded to Earth-based Cube hunters based on total points earned by solving cards
    • Redleitmark.gif Red leitmarks are awarded at 950 points
    • Orangeleitmark.gif Orange at 2,300
    • Yellowleitmark.gif Yellow at 4,500
    • Greenleitmark.gif Green at 5,900
    • Blueleitmark.gif Blue at 7,900
    • Academy sources say the Leitmarks are available through to black and silver, but the points level are being held under close guard until they have been earned
    • All Leitmarks earned are posted to individuals once they have entered their addresses
    • Letters across the green Leitmark read, "And Gyvann said doubt not that the cube speaks or that its voice is heard"
    • A braille puzzle on the blue Leitmark spells, "ICAN SEE YOU"


Sente's Letter

Dear Player,

I am pleased to award you your Leitmark, in recognition of the hard work you have put into helping the people of Perplex City find the Receda Cube. We are very grateful for your assisstance, and hope that this will be the beginning of a long relationship between our two worlds.


Regards,

[signed Sente]

Master of the Perplex City Academy
