The Gentle Manne's Service Medal is a cosmetic item for the Soldier. It adds a small, circular gold medal, worn on the chest with a team-colored ribbon.
The item's description was written by Lamech for the Hat Describing Contest.
This item was awarded to the first 11,111 players who visited a hidden page on the Classless Update website.
