A promotion request for a member who has not been promoted for nine years or awarded in seven years is a tricky task. It is tricky because the last award and promotion predate our current database and because we don't have very many examples of members returning to high levels of activity after such long gaps in recognition.

I'm happy to say, tricky as it may be, Kano is well deserving of the time and effort to craft this recommendation. Since joining Vizsla, Kano has been an integral part of our team. He is a valuable contributor to our Clan Chat on Telegram, our future Clan Proposals, and our Clan's vibrant and expensive COSPLAY tastes.

Kano also showed up when the Clan needed him the most. The GJW. Kano was a max bin participant. He earned a Silver Nova for his amazing DJB Burned Wood Art (Robbed of that Gold Nova if you ask his biased Consul) and a Bronze nova for his great contributions to our Clan run on.

Beyond the incredible individual effort/motivation of others during the war, Kano has also participated in 30 competitions since his last recognition, written nearly 4800 words of fiction, take 19 Shadow Academy Courses, earned 2 Degrees, and participated in 3 x ACC Battles. Kano has also earned 2 x CR with Amethyst Star, 2 x CR with Sapphire Star, 2 Clusters of Fire, 9 Clusters of Ice, 8 Clusters of Graphite, 1 x Seal of Loyalty, and 12 Seals of Discord.

Kano's recent art and dedication to the club has also led to his selection on 16 SEP as Magistrate to the Herald. This selection was in large part due to his skillful art (wait til you see my blasters), but more importantly, his desire to help the club.

Kano, congrats on your promotion. We appreciate all you do for Vizsla and the DJB.
