In my whole history with the Brotherhood, seldom have I seen a member as active, outgoing, and downright helpful as Socorra. Her exploits during the Great Jedi War speak for themselves. Since that time, she has consistently sought out more - and more complex - things to help her Battleteam, House, and Clan. Her dependability and willingness to shoulder ever-increasing responsibility is an example to the rest of the Arconan Summit. What follows is just the briefest list of what Socks has accomplished over the last few months. <br /> She has served on her House Summit, first as Battleteam Leader and now as Aedile. In that time she has ran numerous successful competitions aimed at fleshing out the background and envrionment of Shadow Gate, as well as its members. She was extremely successful at recruiting new membership to Shadow Gate during that time, which significantly increased the overall activity of the unit.<br /> She has assisted multiple Journeymen with their promotion requirements, offering to proof fictions and wiki pages, reviewing and suggesting improvements to competition ideas,as well as making a point of always competing in the competitions they run for their trials. <br /> She has taken on a student, Scelestus, helping him work his way through the Trials - to that point that he is a Jedi Hunter after little more than a month. <br /> She has placed in several Clan-Wide Competitions, showing particularly high activity during Arcona's Family Feud. <br /> In addition to her obvious dedication to the Journeymen of Arcona, Socorra has served as an editor and sounding board for many other members of the Clan, assisting with an obscene number of fictions, ACC posts, RO Posts, and reports in this capacity.<br /> Just a fraction of that activity has earned her the following rewards, with a great deal of it being done behind the scenes and going, thus far, unrecognized.<br /> <ul><li>1 Gold Nova</li> <li>2 Silver Novae</li> <li>1 Crescent with Amethyst Star</li> <li>1 Crescent with Sapphire Star</li> <li>4 Crescents with Emerald Star</li> <li>3 Crescents with Topaz Star</li> <li>97 Clusters of Fire</li> <li>5 Clusters of Ice</li> <li>1 Legion of the Scholar</li> <li>16 Seals of Decimation</li></ul> All of this, of course, says nothing of the countless hours spent IRC and Ventrilo, greeting new members, answering questions, making sure everyone in Arcona is comfortable and is getting what they want and need from their time in the Brotherhood. She is a beacon of activity within the Brotherhood, and cares as much for the enjoyment her members get from Arcona as they themselves do. She has, in my opinion, more than earned this reward. <br /> -Sith Battlemaster Invictus, Quaestor of House Qel-Droma
