Mauro has been an integral part of Satele Shan's leadership team since his appointment as Tython Squadron BTL just over a year ago. Since his last recognition, he has continued to lead from the front and provide energetic support for his house and clan. In the past five months, Mauro has organized two competitions and participated in 57 others. Most importantly, Mauro achieved full participation in phases 1, 2, and 3 during the Rite of Supremacy, often completing a phase within 24 hours of it going live. This is a powerful example, particularly in the later phases where fatigue sets in and participation drops. Then, since he had done everything, he was able to advise members of his house on what competitions they would be most interested in and what the time commitment for an entry was. This leadership bore fruit as members of his house participated in 157 competitions during the Rite of Supremacy, with a score rivaling that of a small clan. It is thanks to leaders like Mauro that we were able to maintain our performance through the latter phases and come out ahead. For his efforts, he earned 8 crescents, 13 Clusters of Ice, and an impressive 43 Clusters of Graphite.
Additionally, Mauro earned a Dark Side Scroll when he was selected as September 2018's Wikipedian of the Month. As Bentre, our Wiki Tribune, said at the time: "Mauro Wynter has been working across the Wiki, making over 200 changes to the Wiki in the last 30 days." Although his pace has slowed over the past few months, Mauro's dedication to the unsexy work of lore-building and documentation has touched multiple DC offices.
As QUA, Mauro has proven to be quietly dependable. It was not surprising, for example, when he had the post-RoS merit awards for his house written, submitted, and approved the same day results were announced, even before the Seals of Fury were processed. He has provided outstanding, drama-free leadership of Satele Shan, and has provided valuable advice and commentary on an ongoing effort to rethink the way we approach subunits in Odan-Urr. Although he has chosen to take a well-deserved break from the clan summit for the time being, I have no doubts whatsoever that Mauro will continue to be one of Shan and Odan-Urr's best members.

-
In conjunction with the Fleet for the Dark Council faction on the site, Mauron added significant content on the Iron Forces to the wiki: https://wiki.darkjedibrotherhood.com/view/Iron_Forces, adding content to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th Task Force as well the Arx Capital Exchange, Shroud Syndicate and Inquisitorius, as well as creating wiki pages and histories for the major ships in the fleet including the Coronation, Endeavor, Misery, Nightfall, Waylay and Wrath. As well as updating the Paladin to reflect its current status in the fleet. Putting all these pages into the appropriate categories. All this content included original background and built supporting documentation to cover an important storytelling element in the DJB.

Though I have not had a lot of time to get to know Mauro, I am very glad to have both had the chance to know him, and also to see him retire and get to enjoy the more relaxing aspects of the DJB for a while. He has led this house with quiet dignity and diligence, and I have no doubt that the house's staggering activity rates are largely his doing. Everyone I have spoken with has nothing but high praise for him, and this house was lucky to have him as QUA. He will be missed as a leader and cherished as a member.
Also we are both former pilots, which is neat (although he flew vastly inferior TIEs, which is not neat).

Mauro Wynter has been the rock of Shan for over a year now. His devotion to his house during its highs and lows is commendable and I am very glad we choose him to be Shan's captain. As his PCON, I really appreciate how solid he was in the position and loved his initiative. His contributions for House Shan are undeniable and will be remembered for some time. I've enjoyed serving Odan-Urr with you and I hope to do so again one day. Thank you for the permanent mark you've made on Shan and a big congratz on your new stabby thing!!

Over the last five months in his continued, stellar service as a Magistrate to the Voice, Mauro has really stepped it up in terms of taking on his own projects and working to improve the Brotherhood's fictional systems in his own way. In a major push to flush out the Fiction Societies fictional factions (Iron Forces, Inquisitorius, Shroud Syndicate, etc.) Mauro was responsible for updating Wikipedia documentation, formatting, and structuring it so that it would be an easy reference for members to use when writing their stories within the Brotherhood's canon universe.
Maruo was responsible for creating a stable of NPCs that were desperately needed to give a stronger identity and point of view for the Brotherhood's factions. This included the creation of Character Sheets, from scratch, for Lord Marshal Damon Nix and Moff Rhell (Iron Forces), CEO Rhent Ghosen (Arx Capital Exchange), Madame Curator Deandria Clery and Vanguard leader Aviana Starstrider (Shadow Academy Society), and of course the Operator and Field Agent NPC archtypes for the Inquisitorius. This work included the creation of custom aspects, all of which had to be approved and up to the standard of the Character Sheet Guidelines, as well as skillset builds, descriptions, and light backstory development. Mauro tackled each of these on his own volition, and completed each task within a few days of being requested. In total, his hard work helped grow the fictional "World" of the Dark Brotherhood's canon universe exponentially. Flushing out these key characters will help make fictions more immersive and stories more relateable for future generations that look to the Dark Council (as a factions) organization structure to be the example.
Outside of his project work, and his (covered by the Regent) other endeavors, Mauro has kept up with his administrative duties in monitoring the Competition and Character Sheet request queues. Since his last award, Maruo has lead the staff with 60 character sheets approvals, which of course does not take into consideration the time and effort he spends working with members on their remanded sheets to make sure they can get them to approval. This often involves taking the time to reach out and work with members who need a few "tries" to get it right.
Through it all, Mauro's patience, attention to detail, and work ethic all make him a stalwart member of my team, and an invaluable asset to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. I am pleased to add my voice to this merit of recognition, but also am simply appreciate to have him on my team and in our club.
