Primary reason

C’ree aka Arcia aka Esca has been a stabilizing force ever since he has come to Clan Odan-Urr but more importantly House Hoth where he spent 8 months as its Quaestor. Since his last merit award for Clan activity he created 8 competitions and co-organized 12 with some of those being part of the very successful COU - Battle Formations, a joint event with House Satele Shan.

Along with creating content he also participated in 56 competitions in his own right earning himself 1 Crescent with Diamond Star, 7 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 8 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 6 Crescents with Sapphire Stars and 2 Crescents with Emerald Stars. He was almost able to amass 1478 Clusters of Fire, 766 Clusters of Earth, 13 Clusters of Graphite and 4 Clusters of Ice.

Numbers only do not tell the full story of his impact of House Hoth and the Clan as a whole. Being Aedile of House Hoth when he was hired to take over for the previous Quaestor, Esca immediately reached out to me and the BTL to get the lay of the land and get to know us and our thoughts and ideas for the house. From day one he created and solidified a House summit team that worked hand and hand to plan and get things done.

He not only lead the project to create Solyiat but he encouraged the entire summit team and the house members themselves to help build it. He listened to everyone’s idea and a unified team we created Hoth’s new home!

His leadership skills were nothing I have ever experience in the DJB before he let me create and run with my ideas only stepping in to give advice, help proofread my reports and fictions. He became my mentor and a friend. Esca truly taught me a lot, not only how to be a little more active, but also how you need to go outside your comfort zone and do things you normally wouldn't for the benefit of the Clan and the House but more importantly for yourself.

Before Esca came around I thought I was a good leader, he not only proved me wrong he helped and inspired me to actually become a much better leader that could take his place and help bring House Hoth to the next level. I for one owe Esca so much and for your impressive numbers, your leadership and your never ending hard work to make Hoth one of the best houses in the DJB you more than deserve this Grand Cross of the Dark Side!

Congratulations my friend!

Edgar Drachen, Quaestor of House Hoth


When it comes to leadership in the club, dossier statistics do not tell the full story. Esca came to House Hoth and COU at a time of great change and uncertainty for the Clan. Odan-Urr had been an actual Clan for barely a year and collectively we were still trying to figure out how to be a Clan. We had outgrown the lore and institutions that had served as our cradle as an independent house. A bold new direction had been set for the Clan but the subordinate houses needed visions of their own, they needed leadership. Enter Esca. Esca provided a firm and experienced hand that laid the foundation for Hoth’s future success.

As Edgar has detailed, Esca marshaled the talent of the House for the creation of their brand new planet and fictional direction as well as provide a very experienced mentor for the House summit.

This small token is a small payment toward the personal debt I owe Esca for stepping up and being the hero House Hoth needed. Thanks for everything my friend!

Additional reasons

I've only been around for a short while, but Esca has quickly shown to be a good friend who has been willing to game with pretty much anyone. He has always proven to be a good sport and has even played me in Jedi Academy. More often than not, you see him hanging out in the Clan Teamspeak ready to beat everyone up in Diablo or some other game. This is something that I really appreciate and I am sure everyone else in the Clan does as well. A team player through and through.

I think Esca has more than earned this award. Congratz
