For his contribution to the Brotherhood while in service to the Shadow Academy Overlord Malik Sadow has excelled at the instruction of the Sith Order and the Brotherhood as a whole. First let us examine what the Ruby Scepter is awarded for.

"Achievement and/or contributions in the area of instruction, invention,
and mentorship to one's Clan or Order."

Malik has more then meet each and every part of this description while being the Instructor on no less then Four Shadow Academy exams, which is more then, any other member. His instruction and grading have been
flawless and thru his work Malik has helped shape the minds of not only His Clan, but also His Order, and the Entire Brotherhood. I have never seen an EP with more dedication the Malik nor have I seen anyone that more
lives up to the ideals of what the Ruby Scepter symbolizes.
