Historic Moment Achievements

Awarded to Members who helped DI achieve a decisive victory during the Spring Offensive of 2020
"It was a harsh winter that members had endured in their journey to the New World. Only a mere 600 or so had survived, hungry and broken, but hopeful. Some say it was punishment from the gods to remind the members that they are only mortal after all. However, as the darkness of winter began to fade and the days started to become warmer, there were a great amount of activity and preparation sweeping through the members. The leaders had just announced the most ambitious initiative in history that would seek to breakthrough the disease and suffering that had plagued members in the New World. This new initiative would seek to aggressively expand DI's influence and power, through rapid growth, tactical surprise and swift decisive action. It would become known as the Spring Offensive, and commence as soon as the last snow had melted. There was a sense of excitement and anticipation among the newer members who were eager to prove themselves. Sacrifices to the gods were made to gain their blessing for the great offensive ahead. Some of the older members who had been scarred by long forgotten horrors were a bit more apprehensive, even doubtful that such a major initiative would succeed. Nonetheless, the plan was beginning to take motion, and when April came, the Spring Offensive commenced with the full force of DI behind it. No one could have foreseen the stunning successes that would follow in the coming months, as DI rapidly expanded and obtained new territories at a rate that had never been witnessed before. Drunk on the blood lust of these successes, the leaders pushed forward and capitalized on the momentum, continuing their advance right through spring, summer and eventually autumn. By the end of it, DI had grown to six times its strength since the start of the offensive, breaking every single record in its entire history. Songs were written of the triumphs and glory that had been achieved. Activity, trade, farming and prosperity flourished as DI took hold of its new found status as the capital of the New World. The gods had been good to DI." - a DI member who was there

Awarded to Members who made the Great Migration of December 2019
"After the carnage of February 2019 that led to Plan Z, DI could not recover its old strength. Alive it was yes, but as a former shadow of itself which did not grow. The Old World had grown tired, sick and elderly. The young and brave that once populated the great lands had been lost. It was time for a new beginning. Many members had reported sightings of a New World. A place where DI could thrive, grow once more and be filled with the glory of old. These lands were different they said. It did not have all the ailing problems of the Old World and promised those who were brave a chance to build a new life for themselves. Leadership of DI made the decision in November 2019 to prepare for what became known as the "Great Migration". The single largest scale migration that the members of DI had ever undertaken. There was a lot of risk, the journey was fraught with danger. Many were not going to make it. However there were those who were willing to bear the risk. When the migration had finally ended and the survivors made it to the New World, DI had lost over 30% of its members through disease, weakness and starvation. But those who survived had great hopes for the future. A future where the glory of DI can once again reign." - a DI member who was there
Eligibility: Any Member or Initiate from Old DI who migrated to the New World. Only receivable once, and forfeited upon going inactive.

Awarded to Members that remained loyal during the crisis of February 2019
"It was a bold and hopeful bet that leadership made which promised to change everything and expand DI beyond its wildest dreams. DI, then at the peak of its golden age of 2018 had 2500+ members and 35 Divisions. It was on the cusp of global domination. But it was not to be. Loki had made the promise of all the glory, power and riches that DI desired and more. Leadership, blinded by their greed, fell for Loki's trap. Soon after, when the deal was done and the fate of DI sealed, is when it all started going horribly wrong. It hit DI like a tsunami, crashing its way through the streets and causing destruction everywhere. Everything was burning, members were fleeing, divisions collapsing everywhere. The gods had forsaken DI. But Loki was watching, waiting for his moment. When all hope was lost and DI had seemed close to meeting its inevitable end, leadership led one last ditched effort to save DI. "Plan Z" it was called. Yes... "Plan Z"...A rallying cry to those still loyal to the cause and willing to fight. However it would be a long struggle for DI to recover its power. DI had become but a shadow of its former self. Filled with the sick and elderly and destined to decay with time. Yes it was difficult times, people suffered badly, but "Plan Z" worked. It saved DI. Many lessons were learned that day." - a DI member who was there
Eligibility: Anyone who remained in DI for 6 months after Plan Z was announced 19 March 2019. Only receivable once, and forfeited upon going inactive.
