Over the past 21 months, Rhace Tarrin has done an exceptional job of consuming and producing content within the Brotherhood. For his exceptional activity, I have the honor of recognizing his readiness for advancement to the rank of Equite 3. Continue to find that spark, Kiwi, and let it drive you to your full potential.

Since his last elevation, Rhace has submitted to 98 competitions, created 23 competitions, and co-organized 3 competitions. Over this time, he has logged 94 PvP Matches, submitted 153 PvE Activities, completed 5 ACC Battles, passed 21 Shadow Academy courses, gained 9 Dark Side Degrees, and Rank XII in the Shadow Academy Society. In addition, he has collected a Grand Cross, an Anteian Cross, 5 Dark Crosses, 48 Crescents (1 Cr-D, 8 Cr-A, 7 Cr-S, 20 Cr-E, 10 Cr-T, 2 Cr-Q), 9 Pendants of Blood, 579 Clusters of Fire, 42 Clusters of Ice, 1046 Clusters of Earth, 1 Scroll of Indoctrination, 4 Scrolls of Foundation, 1 Scroll of the Master, and 8 Legions of the Scholar.

This alone, however, does not recognize the skills of advancement within the Equite ranks. He has shown contrition for his past and worked very hard within the Clan and House; hard enough that I believe he is ready to turn a new page and write a new chapter. Congratulations, Rhace. You’ve done a lot of hard work to earn this elevation.

I have worked with Rhace since his joining Galeres, it’s rare to find someone with the drive and ability to take on so much without hesitation. Personal projects, house projects, gaming, constant communication via telegram and email. Simply put Rhace has proven himself to be willing to go above and beyond when needed. He is currently working on multiple initiatives not only for Galeres but Arcona as a whole: organizing character development fictions, character development workshops, and more. In addition, he provided much needed updates and work on the Shadesworn Wiki page; one of the pivotal identity documents for Arcona.

When Rhace first came to Galeres we weren’t sure what to expect at first, I am glad to say he has surpassed any expectation given. He remains a dedicated contributor of content, he regularly submits to competitions and even finds time to game within the Club to build camaraderie with others.

On behalf of House Galeres and your Summit. Congratulations on your elevation through the Equite Ranks.

Rhace, Mirus, Kiwi, whatever we’re calling this artistic workhorse this week has been surprisingly patient in his time waiting for this promotion. Despite setbacks, projects that he took on that ended up not being viable, and a few personality clashes, the Kiwi has persevered. Along with this he’s shown himself to be a friendly, encouraging personality within House Galeres and the Nighthawk Battleteam, diving into the Telegram discussions and Hangouts with his fellow members. Mirus is the kind of bloke who goes ‘well, that didn’t work, huh, okay, let’s try this next’ instead of simply giving up to discouragement and setbacks.

He’s also no stranger to taking on more work, others here will speak of his wiki work surely but what I find great is his artistic endeavours. Need a report graphic in a hurry? Maybe something tweaked a bit? Warbanner (love mine, Sir Kiwi)? No problem, send him some details and boom, graphic pops back up before you’re done talking to him. His enthusiasm and willingness to work speak volumes about his ability and personality as a member, and we in Arcona are better for knowing him.

You’ve been waiting patiently for this for a while, Rhace, congratulations mate!

Rhace, or Mirus as I still know him by, has been a driving force behind some of the projects I have been maintaining over the past few months. Primarily, his work towards the update of the Shadesworn wiki has not gone unnoticed, him having updated the entirety of the document to reflect the NFU introduction and helping with the adjustment of the various rosters throughout. Aside from his project work, his proposal creation of Tyrant Blade, which laid the groundwork for Styx, helped create a unique Battleteam that has been radiating results. Without Rhace, these things would not have been completed in the timeframe which they were.

Recently, Rhace has moved between Arcona’s houses into Galeres, where he has already shown his willingness to work and has embraced new, active place in Nighthawk. I offer my congratulations, Mirus, for a job well done. Keep up the good work and we’ll see you down the road.
