Ah yes, my favorite Ektrosian ever. Vodo Biask is truly the one member of Ektrosis that deserves recognition more than any other. A friend to his peers, a natural leader, and a good guy, Vodo is the single most well-rounded Ektrosian in recent memory. Having never been properly awarded for his first tenure as Aedile, this Grand Cross recognizes the tremendous amount of work Vodo put into making bi-weekly reports, running competitions, co-working on projects with myself and DJK hopefuls, keeping ATRs of the entire House, and the many other tasks associated with being a member on the Ektrosis Summit. His leadership was some of the finest I've ever had the pleasure to work with, and I look forward to regaining his comraderie on the House Summit as he prepares to start the next chapter of his dedication to Taldryan. Between his retirement from Aedile over three months ago until his reinstatement today, Vodo's activity has been notable. Despite being on a semi-LoA, Vodo made report headers for half of the total Taldryan Summit, including the Consul. His work with graphics is a tremendous asset to our Clan, and I applaud his skill and finesse which so many of us lack. He participated in the Independence Games and helped propel Taldryan to 2nd place. Most recently, he placed 3rd overall in the Clan Taldryan Feud (Operation Swift Justice). The only Ektrosian to place in the top 3, Vodo's commitment to his House and sheer tenacity are the qualities that illustrate the ideal member of this House. There is no substitute for Vodo as I have found out the hard way, and it truly is an honor for me to present this Grand Cross of the Dark Side to Vodo. Congratulations my new Aedile, you've truly earned this! -- Sklib +SBM Sklib+ *** Vodo's time as Aedile during his first go around was never properly awarded. His many months as Aedile showed off his skills as a leader, one of the finest AEDs I've seen during my time here. He was timely on his reports; made great ATRs; ran numerous competitions and was someone others in the House could go to when they had a problem. His activity was also above-par, garnering crescents in the double-digits while also making a number of graphics for the Clan and individuals. Since retiring from AED Vodo has continued his activities, being the top point-getter for Ektrosis in "Operation: Swift Justice" while netting himself 8 crescents. I believe Vodo is more than deserving of this medal! --- DJM Halcyon Rokir Consul of Taldryan
