Qormus is another one of those members who has been active to such a level that our prior, pre-XP system was not putting his work into the proper perspective. He worked as one of the most prolific and involved members of Clan Plagueis, both as a member generating activity as well as a leader working to keep our Clan running at such a level to provide activity opportunities for others. While it has not even been six months since his last elevation, Qormus has easily amassed activity in that time to rise to the level of the final rank of the Equites.
Looking at his overall general activity, Qormus has completed 79 competition entries since his last elevation as well as directly organized another 26. He has also earned the following crescents for those entries: 3 Diamond, 3 Ruby, 1 Amethyst, 2 Sapphire, 4 Emerald, 4 Topaz, and 4 Quartz. Always one to make a good showing during major events, the time since his last recognition was no exception. He received 26 seals from his work in Great Jedi War XV. He also was highly active during the sixth Pro Bowl, completing 23 entries for a total of 145 points earned.
Even more important than his easy to quantify activity was his work as a leader. Qormus spent the majority of his time since his last recognition serving as Proconsul of Plagueis, having also served as Quaestor of House Ventress as well. The amount that was asked of him during that time was unusually burdensome as the Pro Bowl was taking shape and being administered. Essentially, for the entirety of the run up to the event and while it was in progress, Qormus was acting as Consul of the Clan while I worked with all of the various participating Consuls administering the event in a situation more akin to the Council running a Vendetta. Qormus was managing the rest of the summit while providing metrics to inform their engagement work and directing them through their tasks of unit wide as well as one-on-one outreach for the duration. HIs work was especially invaluable as both Quaestors assumed their positions in the lead up to the event, in one case literally only days before the Pro Bowl kicked off. Due in no small part to his efforts, Plagueis saw 21 unique participants during the Pro-Bowl, which equated to 2/3rds of the unit roster at the time and just under 25% of all participating members across the entire event, by far the largest participant ratio the unit has seen in the history of these events. Those 21 members were responsible for 259 total competition entries, a 32% increase over the number of entries Plagueis had seen in the recently concluded Great Jedi War. There is no doubt in my mind that Qormus's work as Proconsul was directly responsible for the absolutely stellar activity numbers that our Clan was able to put forward during Pro Bowl VI.
While he was forced to step away from the Brotherhood due to real life obligations, to put it in the words of another leader in the Brotherhood, "Qormus is more active doing nothing than some members are at full steam". The quality and quantity of his work has been without peer, and I feel that it is a truly great development that the recognition systems of the Brotherhood have, finally at long last, caught up to his excellence. It is my honor and privilege to put him forward for this advancement, well earned that it is!
