Primary reason

Since taking over a Consul Locke has done a lot to improve the effectiveness of the Summit, the communication level between leaders, and the overall moral of the clan. Even before becoming Consul Locke was very proactive as a leader and in general. As Proconsul he help Macron guide the clan in a new direction, he provide the clan membership with activities, and he even help the QUAs and RM daily with things like awarding members, promoting members, types of competitions to run. He was also a very active himself participating in competitions, placing in a few, posting in ROs, among other things. As Consul Locke has done a great job with keeping tabs on his leaders. He sends weekly emails to check up on everyone. He encourages communication between leaders and their members and promotes any activities that he can. Locke has defiantly become a fine leader and is an outstanding members of this Clan and the Brotherhood. I herby recommend Grand Cross of the Dark Side to our Consul, Locke Sonji. Congrats!

There is much I could say about Locke, but the easiest perspective to choose is from my time as a Journeyman. It didn’t take long to get in touch with Locke, and as far as leaders go, he was probably the most hands-on and in your face I’ve ever seen. I couldn’t get away from him, in a good way, and we were always in contact on various chat programs. In this way, he was always available for questions and was quick to answer. He made my time working through the promotions more enjoyable, not to mention easier. He is an exemplary leader and I’ve seen him do the same for many others. He is smart, hardworking, and well deserving of any and all recognition. Except for this whole “purple” thing… I don’t know what would drive a man to pick that over Blue. Very strange, very strange indeed. They say it’s the colour of royalty and I would have to say he wears it well. As Con I see him doing great things for his Clan, beyond the lines of communication he has already formed and upheld. He truly leads, he doesn’t manage.

Following his appointment as Proconsul last year, Locke has been a powerhouse on the Summit of Clan Naga Sadow. In his professional capacity, Locke always performs his administrative duties swiftly, dealing with all the gritty tasks of Summit leadership with diplomacy. Recently, he has also begun to bring back the tradition of fictional updates in his reports, much like we all regularly see in the various Dark Council reports. Behind the scenes, Locke has also been a strong voice on the Conclave, not bowing the the pressure of the voices of the past, but having the strength of his own convictions to see through the needs of the Clan of today, something he continues to demonstrate in his new role as Consul.

When Locke's away from the office, he also excels as a fully participating member of the Dark Brotherhood, as is demonstrated by his extensive medal collection. From regular Clusters of Fire and Clusters of Ice, Locke is always leading by example, taking part in the activities that he wants to see others follow his lead and join in as well, with him clocking up regular Crescents on an almost weekly basis sometimes. To look at just one example, he currently is taking part in the Ambitions run-on from the VOICE's office, as well as taking part in the internal Clan run-on.

For his constant activity and drive to develop the Clan further, Locke has proven himself both an exception member and a worthy leader for Clan Naga Sadow, and I hereby extend my recommendation for this award.

I have known Locke for several years, I was his Master during his time as a Journeyman and i have grown to respect him not only as a friend but as a leader with in the Clan. I have been there to watch him grow from a quiet behind the scenes type of a person to someone who is hands on in how the clan is ran. Even in the short time that he got Consul he took the position and ran with it. He has pushed heavily for a more activity central leadership, its not good enough to just preach being active, he practices what he preaches and expects those under his command to follow his lead. He has helped create and run the current Festival that is running in Naga Sadow. He himself has earned a staggering 13 crescents of various levels, and has secured himself Seal of Loyalty for his dedication to the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. I recommend Locke Sonjie for a Grand Cross of the Dark Side, congrats my friend. -Teu Pepoi CNS Proconsul
