I am pleased to bring up the name Edgar Drachen yet again in an Odan-Urr award. Since his last recognition, he has not only been active as a regular member but as a leader as well.

As a regular member, he participated in 22 competitions, 12 PvE matches, 1 fiction activity, 13 words of fiction, passed two SA courses, posted 1 news post, and 8 comments. During these activities, he was awarded 1 Crescent with Topaz Star, 1 Crescent with Quartz Star, 2 Pendants of Blood, 122 Clusters of Fire, 16 Clusters of Earth, 4 Clusters of Graphite, 5 Seals of Fury, and 3 Seals of Discord. Of note, the last two entries were earned for participating in major Dark Brotherhood events. Lastly, he participated in 1 Gaming Event, which lasts a few hours and is a great way to support community building within the Clan. When members reach the EQ4 range sometimes they stop pushing forward but that hasn’t stopped him. Keep up the good work!

As for his leadership contributions, I’d first like to highlight his time as Quaestor of Hoth, during which he served in the post for 3 months and generated 1 report. During his time in service, he was part of the key transition between a tumultuous time and the relative peace that followed. First, he reintroduced the Scimitar of Lord Hoth back to Hoth, running it for two months straight. Of note, this competition requires a lot of manual counting but is a great community motivator. Second, he organized three competitions to spur activity inside Hoth. Third, he reached out to prospective masters to best serve his younger members. In addition to his communication with the Hoth Summit, these efforts helped push Hoth forward and generated activity for the clan. It was greatly appreciated.

Lastly, not all leadership contributions are from a position. Two such instances come to mind when I think of Edgar Drachen. First, he was the sole author, consisting of 446 words, of an ACC venue for Odan-Urr named Solyiat: Po’tak Coastline. He volunteered to make this unique venue for the clan and helped find pictures to use with it. Unique ACC venues help promote clan ACC matches and encourage engaging in clan lore so this was greatly appreciated. Second, he recently took on a mentorship role once more. He has already helped his student promote once and is well on his way to helping them reach Knighthood. Yet another example of his willingness to help out the Clan. Thank you.

For his dedication and activity, I am proud to recommend that Edgar Drachen receive a Grand Cross for his efforts. Congratulations!
