What can I say about this young man that has not already been said. He is one of the Old Guard’s of CNS and his presence is felt constantly throughout the Clan. Over the past few months Locke has maintained a steady flow of activity. He has competed in nearly ninety comps and has earned himself hundreds of Clusters of Earth & Fire.
During his time as Quaestor this year the Epis has been a valuable resource helping me settle in as Consul by assisting with promoting Clan activities, multiple award sweeps as well as helping with restructuring the Clan Fleet. Locke helped with the creation of the Sepros Defense Force & Sepros Mining Outpost ensuring CNS had the resources to protect our own backyard and furthering CNS storyline. Giving CNS members more lore & assets to enhance their own fictional storylines.
When he is not helping me, Locke is usually on the front lines with members answering questions regarding CNS/Club. He has a vast amount of knowledge and always willing to assist others. Whether he takes time out to assist with CS or loadouts, members know they are in good hands with the Epis. During the recent ProBowl and GJW he was right behind me in promoting and getting folks active in major Club events. His leadership as Quaestor was emulated by five Marka Ragnos members garnering their own placements during the War. Those war efforts led CNS to edge out the other Clans in overall participation rate in each phase of the GJW.
He consistently competes in our monthly Order of the Blackguard competition and has an ongoing feud with his Aedile for higher placement. This in House rivalry has increased our overall participation rate amongst members increasing Clan espirit de corp. During the Great Jedi War XVI: Transcendence, Locke crossed off eight comp bins, racking up over fifty individual points. His gaming prowess led to his placement in the GJW HoTs competition. I am honored to be able to be a part of this award. Congratulations Sir, well deserved!

I'm not going to talk about the finer data points, the infinite measurables that the site tracks all so much easier now, butthe soft skills that the site can't really measure. In this day and age, we have to do more than offer things for people to participate in. The internet is chock full of time-wasters and all manner of quick serotonin hits. Community, brotherhood, friendship. These are the things that keep people coming back, more than almost anything. And Locke continues to be an ever-present fixture in that regard. He drags people back in when they stumble, when they go quiet with PMs, invites to play a game of mario kart, or even just talk. He jumps on voice chats to talk about all the new star wars stuff coming out, jokes about the force and other games, or the ships that the clan is thinking about buying. He encourages people to stick around, to hang out. He helps them want to do more with the club by his friendship. He's done it to me, my wife, and who knows how many more... And for that, I'm happy to recognize and thank him.

Locke has served as Quaestor of House Marka Ragnos for 10 months since his last recognition. In that time, he has promoted activity amongst members of the House, and the Clan as a whole, within the ProBowl and the latest Great Jedi War.
Locke has continued to be a mentor to members and advises them on how to participate and encourages them to enjoy their time in the club.
He is always there to provide me with a buddy to earn Clusters of Earth in Heroes of the Storm, and carries me to victory, putting up with my salty rage. Locke continues to invite members to join us in gaming, usually in Heroes of the Storm or Mario Kart (which helped me get good at both. Thanks Locke for helping me get gud!).
Locke has been my friend for the past 10 years and an advisor to me in real life and the club for those past 10 years, sticking with me through thick and thin, and has often done the same with other members within the Clan.
I believe Locke is more than deserving of this Sapphire Blade to wave around and play with.
Thank you for continuing to serve Naga Sadow, Locke. We don't deserve you, buddy.
