Primary reason

Essik is a consistent powerhouse when it comes to this club. His behind-the-scenes work, which he does without anyone asking is unmatched. His most recent endeavor, taking it upon himself to backup all of the COU stories and content from discourse without even being asked. He saw the importance in salvaging over 10 years worth of work and wanted to preserve this history. This speaks of his mentality when going into projects, many of which he gives himself. His interests are in what's best for this club and his Clan. You would be hard-pressed to find someone more passionate and concerned with the overall well being of this club. This is one of the main reasons I hired him as my Aedile. Just in the month that he has been back in a leadership position he has helped me organize a parent competition, created three competitions, has helped me in the back end with tracking membership progress, is helping me develop a new Storyline for the HGC, and is currently running our House RO on Discord where he can always be found dropping messages to stir activity and pushing to maintain our community vibe (so far producing 622 words in addition to the staggering 16352 words he's written for various competitions).

But his achievements extend beyond the Clan as well. Essik was recently awarded 1 Anteian and 1 Steel Cross for proofing page after page of new item prototypes after he noticed a few discrepancies. He took it upon himself to ensure the items would roll out without a hitch. Additionally, and one of the things he is known the most for, are his Wiki contributions. Since his last award he received 4 Dark Side Scrolls for being Wikipedian of the Month for October '21, November '21, January '22 and March '22 with a combined 154 edits and 10744 overall words.

Essik has also participated in 80 competitions and has earned, 3 Crescents with Diamond Stars, 14 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 19 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 9 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 6 Crescents with Emerald Stars, 2 Crescents with Topaz Stars, and 1 Crescent with Quartz Star. He also has 34 Clusters of Ice and 102 Clusters of Graphite.

A good friend, a hard worker, and an earner/big brother to the Clan, Essik is a shining example of what it means to do work because it needs to be done over working for recognition. I am honored to write this recommendation and know that he will continue to do what he does best, being awesome!

Additional reasons

Essik, the work you put into this club is hard to put a price on. We greatly appreciate everything you do, especially the easily overlooked things like wiki work or backing up years of content.

Again, thank you, and congratulations on your Sapphire Blade!

I often wish I could clone Essik, he not only leads from the front on individual activity but his level of initiative is unparalleled. He sees things that need to be done and often has them completed and moved on to something else before we can think to ask. Much of what he does, namely in the wiki realm, is done quietly and without fanfare. Well Essik, we see you.

On behalf of the Guardian Corps and the clan at large, thank you for everything you do!
