Terran Koul truly is an asset to Arcona. I have had the opportunity to work closely with him during my tenure as BTL of Voidbreaker, and I can say unequivocally that he has a leadership style that is unlike any other. He is very knowledgeable, and does not hesitate to share his insight with others. He readily provides support and guidance to those who are new to leadership. He is in many ways an excellent project manager. It is for these reasons that I am happy to lend my voice in support that Terran be awarded the Amethyst Kukri! Congratulations, Terran!

Terran Koul, better known as Vic to some, has been a backbone of the Arconan summit and Arcona as a whole for, and I mean this quite literally, the last decade (2011). I only get to talk about a small part of that service, but it is still an important and vital part.

Vic was always at hand and on duty to help, even before I was an Aedile and when I became Consul. While it may be hard to define what an "advisor" is in metric, I can tell anyone that it involved discussing every topic that ever came up to the summit, offering solutions and playing devil's advocate to every problem, email chains in the double and triple digits and a boggling number of spreadsheets and midnight debates about spending credits and the merits of ship types and fleet allocations that I knew nothing about-- and a lot of other things. As Consul, I knew I could delegate any task involving data management or tool building to Vic and it would be done right away with more efficiency than almost anyone else could manage. He built activity trackers and award calculators and report templates. He taught myself and other rotating generations of the summit over the years wiki coding and Markdown even before the courses and often in place of the courses (because it's easier to ask). Most wiki tables on Arcona pages came from him.

As Quaestor during my Consulship, he cared for Qel-Droma closely and built out not only tools and updated wikis for them, refreshing a lot of old material and building from the ground up with his leadership team, but also tackled the Clan-wide plotlines and competitions with me in Sins of the Past, which others can also detail. This was a huge undertaking. He plotted out a year out of Clan plot by himself, created the Muun Species proposal in order to provide the CS for one of the first villains, created and ran those completions, created Star Wars story crawls for each sub competition and the main event (you can still watch them playing in gif format on Discourse), posted all the plot updates, and made sure all members who contributed to the fictions were credited and awarded bonus CIs for it.

Besides this, he also revised and updated the Arcona Fiction Timeline, wrote our Leadership guidelines, managed fleet planning as aforementioned, and stepped up to Proconsul after I retired to continue serving. He's done everything-- proofed every fiction or post, listened to every rant, been the voice of reason that kept our summit from going off the rails entirely at the worst of times. These are not reflected in numbers, but they are no less critical. It is why he is a title holder: because few have given so much for the Clan in service as he has.

Thank you for always being there and having our backs, Vic. For loving us more than our faults.
