Calling Atty one of our most prolific members really undersells her body of work. In addition to the hundreds of thousands of words of fiction she's written and the uncounted hours of staff and leadership time she's devoted to this club since her last award, she has also been an invaluable member of the DB Story Group for the last few vendettas. For those who don't know, the Story Group is a small off-roster team typically comprised of the GM, DGM, JST, and Voice, with occasional input from the Regent and (of course) James. The only member of the current group not on the Dark Council, Atty earned her way in with hard work, dedication, talent, and an aptitude for teamwork. Since joining, she's been a constant source of and sounding board for (our many, many terrible) ideas, has acted as the primary proofreader for Idris' drafts, and even developed and wrote the descriptions for the fictional locations used in RoS: Escalation.
I can sincerely say that without her, the overall plot and individual fictions for RoS: Escalation would not have been as good as they were. Thanks for all of your work, Atty!

There are few members as dedicated to the ACC as an institution and to supporting the members who take part in it as much as Atty. Hiring her to staff was one of the easiest decisions I’ve ever made. Atty brought not only a wealth of experience with the CS system and probably one of the best commands of syntax in the club but also the perspective of a prolific ACC competitor to the table. When the staff had to weigh matters of realism, rules, competition design and change proposals, Atty served as a tireless voice on behalf of the ACC competitors.
During her time on ACC staff Atty served as lead judge on 10 matches, graded 1 ACC qualification exam and provided timely rule of two support on an impressive 19 matches. All these activities in support of the members who use the Antei Combat Centre required a high degree of professionalism and attention to detail. I would conservatively estimate she spent at least 20 hours in direct support to the ACC staff through judging matches, supporting other judges through rule of two review, proposal development and staff discussions. Those are just the things I can directly quantify. Atty’s support to the members who participated in the ACC through advice in public channels and post proofing are just as substantial but harder to quantify. Just about every member who’s participated in an ACC match in the past few years has had at least one post proofed by Atty.
On behalf of myself and the larger fiction community, thank you for all your hard work and love you poured into the ACC and all the members who participate in it.

Atyiru has been a staple of “TeamVoice” for a long time. Her critical eye, vast knowledge of our CS system, and drive to help others have helped keep the Voice Office on track for ages. With an additional year as P:Voice and about 4 months as SM:Voice, she has never let off the gas to ensure a great experience for all members that utilize our fiction systems.
Since being awarded a Ruby Sceptor back in mid-August 2020, she has personally approved 241 Character Sheets (10.31% of all sheets approved in this window, 38% if you remove the auto-approved sheets). She has also supplied 89 Sheet remands (33.3% of all remands in this window). This doesn’t include the fact that she typically has eyes on all sheets in the queue anyway, thus providing feedback even when it is not her specifically providing the approval or remand.
As always her interactions with members while representing the Voice Staff have been incredibly professional, helpful, polite, and informative. Be it the well worded remands that not only illustrate where weak points are in a CS but also always provide insight on how it can be improved or her watchful eye in #fiction-chat and the efforts to keep it a safe and helpful space for those interested in our fictional offerings.
Her vast experience and capability to help others have come into even great usage over the last several months as she has helped train up the news bunch of Voice Staffers. Her aid and knowledge have been a vast boon the entire time I’ve served as Voice.
There have been numerous projects, policy changes, and QoL updates to the CS system this last year, and Atty has been a part of all of them. Insightful she has helped tackle changes to our skills and feats while also working as part of the DJB Story Group. Beyond proofing our fiction releases, she has been a critical part of story development and has helped push our club’s narrative further and better than it could have been without her.
Thank you Atty for everything!

When it comes to members of Arcona, none shine more brightly than Atty. She is engaged in all areas of the Clan and shows her value every day. She is one of the first to engage with new members when they appear and is always looking out for the best interest of all within our Clan. She is instrumental to our success and Arcona would be a lesser place without her.
Since her last awarding, Atty has participated in 110 competitions and has run, or helped run, 7 others. She is in the process of establishing Arcona’s next Clan event where she will be the one running the competitions. In competition, Atty rises to the top. She has earned numerous crescents (2 Diamond, 13 Ruby, 5 Amethyst, 17 Sapphire, 6 Emerald, 5 Topaz, 1 Quartz) and her efforts also awarded her clusters (4 Fire, 487 Ice, 76 Graphite). In Rite of Supremacy: Escalation, she was First Heroine having earned 3 Gold Novae, 2 Silver, and 4 Bronze and 17 Seals on Enmity.
Atty takes the lead as our most prolific roleplayer and even runs many of our Clan RP’s. She has written 224,852 words of fiction and assists all of our members with their posts and ideas for development. Her focus is always on building up our members and making sure they are having fun and succeeding.
I have found Atty to be truly inspiring as my Proconsul. She signed on as an interim Proconsul and did so to help the Clan in a time of need. Since then she has really taken the lead handling the most responsibility of any of our leaders. I regrettably had some serious RL issues knock me out of my ability to be around and she picked up the slack in a way that I can never repay to her.
Atty is a true friend and an inspiration to us all. She deserves this award and more. I am so proud of her and wish her well in all her DJB endeavors. Thank you for everything Atty. Congratulations!
