Primary reason

Since her last recognition, Atty (Satsi) has spent the last year in continued service as Praetor to the Voice. During this time period, she has approved 146 Character sheets on her own, while answering questions and overseeing two magistrates that account for 369 character sheets. These metrics do not, of course, track on the fiction competitions she reviews and then approves or remands, or the character sheets she similarly reviews and remands, She provides guidance on these remands, maintains that the language they are using is in line with the Voice’s standards for member experience, and has consistent positive feedback for the time she takes to work with members on their custom aspects. She helps combat the stigma that a “remand” is a bad thing, and allows me, as Voice, not to worry that the Character Sheet guidelines aren’t being maintained. This frees me up to tackle projects and higher level oversight of the Fiction Society. Put simply, I trust Atty to run my office in the exact same way that I do, ensuring maximum continuity and coverage in the event that I have to take time off.

Atty has also taken to tracking DB-wide fiction competitions that are run and records the time length they ran, how many members subscribed, and how many actually entered submissions. This helps create a data model that can help us make informed decisions about what kind of competitions work better than others. She also worked with the Regent team to contribute to the Creatures project for Possessions.

Atty is also my long trusted proofreader. She proof reads every report, newspost, and fiction update that I create or produce. She offers a second set of eyes and lets me bounce my ideas off of her, and isn’t afraid to challenge my stance or try and show me a disparate opinion that aligns with that of a non-DCer. This helps me be a better Councilor, and I can’t really quantify how much she helps me operate as long as I have as Voice.

Outside her role as Praetor, Atty has not only been one of the most active engaged members of the Fiction Society, but one of the most consistently active members of the club. To wit, her sustained activity has had her complete 15 ACC matches, produced 79,615 words of fiction through 31 fiction competition entries, an additional 6,000 words of Run-On posts for a total of 231 Clusters of Ice. Beyond that, she has participated in 26 Graphic Competitions with 81 Cluster’s of Graphite and 23 regular Competitions with 60 total crescents. As a competitor, she took home 19 Seals of Fury for RoS: Meridian while also nabbing 3 Bronze Novae.

In short, Atty is not only a hard working leader and contributor to club as P: Voice, she is also one of its most active members day-to-day. Her ability to engage with literally anyone, and willingness to help them understand our character sheets or the system, supersedes her own wants or opinions because she knows that true progression in this club from staying tough in the fire and doing the work. So, here's something I don't think you've gotten yet: a red staff of booping, or better yet, a Ruby Sceptre for your emotional-terrorist throne. Thank you, Aberton III Esquire, for all you do.

Additional reasons

It can be hard to quantify all a person does for their Clan, and with Atty/Satsi/Pancake it can be even more difficult. She is invested in every facet of Arcona, takes an interest in the older members who are too stubborn to disappear and every new join who graces us with their presence. While since her last recognition she's successfully mentored Eilen to the rank of Knighthood, this only one of many Journeyman she's helped on the path. Atty is a huge part of drawing new folks in and getting them settled in Arcona, in building community and a sense of belonging. Not only that, even without an official position in the Clan she's not let up on encouraging activity in others. During the Rite of Supremacy she was a whirlwind of encouragement, offering her services as a proofer or sounding board for ideas. She digs in and doesn't give up as time limits draw near, she pushes and pushes and finishes what she sets her mind to, and she sets an incredibly example for the members of our Clan in doing so. In my six years with Arcona, I can say she's one of the very few Arconae to embody what it means to care and work for the Clan, and I am so proud to be able to even assist in recognizing her badassery. Congratulations, Atty!

Consul, Arcona
