Thran continues to be a force to be reckoned with, no matter what position he's serving (whether as my Praetor or Kamjin's Proconsul) and remains the most instrumental part of my staff. Since I last recognized Thran's contributions, he has continued plugging away at a multitude of projects to make the possessions system better for the entirety of the club.

During the last several months, Thran has:

• Reviewed every current item prototype release to date (dating all the way back to Evant's term) to assign them to a Regent release filter in the prototype research page, over a thousand items, to make it easier for members to filter and search for items from a specific release
• Led the deploy of our third booster release in May, working with Magistrate Korvis. He personally added 10/18 prototypes to the system, did our mandatory quality check on all 18 entries, and stocked each of those items to the store
• Completed, just like Planetary Assets, almost the entirety of the Land Vehicle Upgrades project by himself, which included the full development of well over 100 new prototypes, building a pricing structure for those items, eliminating the old modification aspect type and replacing it with a new one, adding the new upgrade slots (and aspect type change) to every single member land vehicle item in our system, inputting all 121 new upgrades into the system as prototypes, running several quality control checks to ensure spelling and grammar accuracy as well as proper input and creation of the stocking rules, and finally going back into those item prototype pages and stocking them to the new store
• Came up with the initial concept of a "chop shop" for our land vehicle upgrade store, which eventually evolved into honoring one of our greatest members, Frosty Tarentae
• Has hit the ground running on the Capital Space Vehicle Upgrades project, compiling a list of 32 potential upgrades so far. This is a project I specifically saved for Thran, and he'll be the one doing most of the development on this project.

Thran continues to be an active participant in every discussion we hold, literally a beacon of activity. I would be lying if I said that he wasn't my right hand man, and it is such an incredible joy working with him. He's always got the club's interests at heart, and it shows. His contributions and sheer effort he puts into everything he does speaks for itself. There is zero doubt in my mind that this club would be a lot less enjoyable if Thran were not in it.

For his contributions to the entirety of the Brotherhood, I hereby request this Ruby Scepter for Thran (Thran did things, now Thran gets medal).
