Ronovi Tavisaen is a member that has recently made her presence known in Plagueis once again, having returned to full activity levels for the first time in a few years. On either side of that gap, however, Ronovi has put up the sort of activity numbers and leadership work that many who were active for the entire intervening time have not matched. Now that she's made a more permanent return, it is my duty to put her name forward for the awarding of a Sapphire Blade.

In all, since her last recognition, Ronovi has been put together enviable levels of activity. She has participated in 136 competitions (a number I know that does not count some of her early Crusade entries that never made it onto the website) and placed in 28 of them. Those placements have earned her 6 Gold Novae, 4 Bronze Novae, 2 Diamond Crescents, 5 Ruby Crescents, 6 Amethyst Crescents, 3 Sapphire Crescents, 2 Emerald Crescents, and 3 Legions of the Scholar. She has 5 fiction activities for a total of 10,689 words (numbers I know are both under reporting her true total as much of her activity was not tracked by the site at the time), and 27 Clusters of Ice. She has also earned 3 Clusters of Fire and 5 Clusters of Earth as she begins to bring gaming activity into her repertoire and 6 of the new Clusters of Graphite for her graphics. As for Seals, she has earned 1 of Loyalty, 23 of the Crusader, and 7 of Reminisce. She received a rare non-mastor mentoring related Scroll of the Master, for helping Brimstone grow as a member of the Brotherhood beyond simply reaching the rank of Knight. And, as befiting a former Headmaster who is always looking to expand her education, she passed 11 SA courses and earned 2 of the then-new Dark Pundit degrees. Finally, as a leader she filed all 7 of her monthly reports during her tenure as Aedile and Quaestor, and ran a fiction event for the 2013 Independence Games.

Moreso than the raw numbers, however, is what those numbers mean in context. Ronovi wasn't just stacking up random mobile gaming or Trivia competitions, she was really showing up when it mattered. Throughout the third, fourth, and fifth rounds of the Dark Crusade, Ronovi entered 14 of the available 16 events (some of which aren't even tracked on the website), placing 1st in round 3 wiki, 1st in round 4 fiction, poetry, and RO, and 3rd in round 5 fiction, multimedia, and battleplan. Additionally, intervening between the rounds of the Crusade Ronovi entered seven events during the Independence Games and helped get out the entries for House Plagueis during that time. In addition to her own individual placements, she served as either Plagueis Aedile or Quaestor for that time, helping Plagueis continue to win rounds that would eventually lead to our House's victory in the Dark Crusade. The individually-focused member engagement she helped foster both through her own actions and through the guidance she provided to her fellow leaders was invaluable to creating the mindset in the House that everyone needed to compete to their fullest, and that victory was a very real possibility. Ensuring that the Plagueis leadership used one on one engagement and a personalized approach to their members made sure that people were not disengaged as mass-email messages would often do. As a leader in one of the top two summit positions in Plagueis for longer than any other person, her contributions cannot be understated. Following her most recent return back to Plagueis, Ronovi hit the competitive ground running and got back to where she had been during the Dark Crusade. In our just completed The Enemy Below event, Ronovi participated in 23 of the 24 possible events. Competitively, she earned 1st place finishes in all three Fiction events, Poetry, Logic Puzzle, and week 2 Cryptogram, 2nd place finishes in week 1 Cryptogram and Crawl Creator, and 3rd place in week 2 Flash Gaming 1. All told, Ronovi scored 202 total points and finished in first place for the event.

Ronovi Tavisaen is the last of the major contributors to Clan Plagueis's victory in the Dark Crusade that, due to her absence, has not received their due recognition for their contributions. Montressor, Tra'an Reith, Brimstone, Teylas, Eiko, Furios Morega, Arden Karn, and even myself have already taken home the spoils of that Vendetta, either in the form of Sacramental awards or Equite promotions. It gives me great joy to spend the time writing this recommendation and to be the one who finally submits it for consideration, one last piece of unfinished business from nearly three and a half years gone. You fought well for this back during the Crusade, and you have fought well for it in the several months before now. I, and Clan Plagueis, thank you for your contributions, may they continue making a lasting contribution to your adopted home.

Since his promotion in the beginning of March, Pollus Paratus has been on an absolute tear of activity. During our just completed The Enemy Below event, Pollus all 24 possible competitions, placing in six of them (2nd in Week 2 Logic Puzzle, Poetry, and Week 3 Fiction with 3rd place finishes in Week 1 Fiction, Flash Gaming, and Puzzle). He scored 179 total points for his team, good for an overall individual 4th place finish out of the entire Clan.

In total since his promotion (a time period of only about 40 days), Pollus has entered a staggering 50 competitions and placed in 13 of them. His placements have earned him the following Crescents: 2 Ruby, 4 Amethyst, 4 Sapphire, and 3 Emerald. In the realm of fiction he has submitted 5 fiction activities and amassed 6,707 words of fiction, netting him 14 Clusters of Ice and advancement from rank I to IV in the Fiction Society. Gaming wise, he has 2 PvP matches and 3 PvE activities that have earned him 3 Clusters of Fire and 60 Clusters of Earth. Additionally, he has amassed 6 Clusters of Graphite for graphical work. Finally, he has passed 15 Shadow Academy courses to complete his Dark Maven - Lore, Dark Maven - Galactic History, and Dark Savant - History and Lore degrees and advance from rank V to VII in the SA Society.

All in all, Pollus Paratus has demonstrated a level of activity over the last month+ that most members have not been able to match since the beginning of the year. As such, it is my honor to present him with this award in recognition of his outstanding performance.

Going through the Promotion Assessment for Kelly Mendes, the first thing that you notice is that she does just about everything that there is for her to be able to do. I'd like to recommend Kelly, for all of her hard work, a Grand Cross. She has worked hard for the last 3 months to earn this award, and the numbers are there to prove it.

Kelly has participated in a total of 46 competitions, 24 of those being from our last event, The Enemy Below. We're thrilled to see another of our Summit members leading the way for the Clan with 100% participation in the event. She placed in a total of 2 of those competitions and earned 6th place overall for the event. Kelly worked hard every day to encourage and support the members, reminding to always "Do all the things", and then living those words herself. For all of her competitions Kelly has earned for herself 12 Clusters of Ice and 8 Clusters of Graphite.

Kelly has continued to be one of Plagueis' main gamers. She has participated in 66 total PVP matches, earning 2 Pendants of Blood, and 243 Clusters of Fire. It's easy to say that she leads the way for our Clan in gaming through every event.

Kelly is also very often found in the ACC, having participated in two matches in the last three months.

All of Kelly's hard work throughout the DJB has earned her many awards, 1 Crescent with Ruby Star, 4 Crescents with Amethyst Star, 2 Crescents with Sapphire Star, and 1 Crescent with Emerald Star. She has also earned 3 Scrolls of Foundation for her service in the Shadow Academy.

Kelly has been a critical part of the Plagueis Summit for the last three months, especially during our recent The Enemy Below event. Kelly is always a vocal and active presence in our Telegram channel, helping both her members and those of House Karness Muur alike when they are in need of assistance. Additionally, she has submitted her monthly reports on time each month, making sure to keep her members informed about the goings on in the Ascendant Clan. During The Enemy Below, our House summits were divided between the two teams, with Kelly working with the Quaestor of HKM to lead her team. During the three week competition, in addition to Telegram interactions with her members, Kelly also sent out 3 team wide email messages (one each week) and 13 total individual emails to engage less active members. Her efforts are a huge part of why her team of 18 members generated 241 total entries from 14 unique participants over the course of the event. Kelly is exactly the type of member we love to have on our Summit, and thank her for her kind example as a leader. Kelly has more than earned the award of Grand Cross, and we are excited to continue to see her work hard as she continues her career as Quaestor.

Azmodius has been a great asset to the Plagueis Summit. He's worked hard, and put in a lot of effort as the Circle Battle Team Leader. He often asks questions, and clarifies to make sure he's doing his job well, and learning to improve. He's been a great example of what we want from our leadership in Plagueis, and has gone above and beyond what we expected.

Activity wise, Azmodius has been no less excellent. He has participated in a total of 35 competitions since his last recognition, 24 of those being in Plagueis' most recent event, The Enemy Below. He was at the forefront of the event, completing 100% of the competitions, placing in half of those, and achieving 3rd place overall. This is exactly what we expect of our Summit during our events, 100% participation that is a great leading example to our regular members. For all of his competitions Azmodius has earned 5 Clusters of Ice, and 6 Clusters of Graphite.

Azmodius has also kept up with a high level of gaming, participating in 18 PVE matches. Since his last recognition Azmodius has earned 173 Clusters of Fire. He was a huge help during The Enemy Below, making sure he was constantly available for anyone who needed someone to game with.

Azmodius even had time to pass 9 more courses in the Shadow Academy, earning himself a new Degree.

Azmodius has also earned many awards for his accomplishments in the last couple months. He has earned 8 Crescents with Amethyst Star, 5 Crescents with Sapphire Star, 3 Crescents with Emerald Star, and 1 Crescent with Topaz Star.

Beyond what he does as an individual, Azmodius is also an invaluable member of the Plagueis summit. Up until recently he had spent the last two months as Battleteam Leader of The Circle. As the unit that serves as a destination for all our new joins, maintaining a constant presence on Telegram and engaging his members daily was something that Azmodius excelled at. His activity in creating a positive new member experience for his charges is something that has helped Plagueis grow as we look to the future. He has encouraged and supported his members, helping them navigate the trials and tribulations that many have experienced outside of simply fulfilling promotion requirements. In addition, he has made substantive contributions to the monthly Rollmaster report, often collating and formatting activity data for inclusion in that report as is his assigned task. He also takes criticism well from his leaders, and always incorporates that feedback into his actions in order to do his job better. We're glad to have him, and we're anxious to see how well he'll perform in his new position of Aedile.

I would like to recommend Azmodius for a Steel Cross, for his tremendous effort as a leader, and as a valuable member in Plagueis' ranks. Thank-you Azmodius, keep working hard, we can't wait to see more of what you have to offer.

Ra'gnar is one of the most reliable engines of activity that Clan Plagueis has, and he stepped up in a big way during our recently completed Clan event The Enemy Below. Ra'gnar was one of the more prolific members of his team, competing in every round and completing 20 out of a possible 24 competitions while earning 132 total points. All told since his last recognition, including his performance in our recent event, Ra'gnar has entered 42 total competitions and placed in two of them. Those placements earned him 1 Diamond crescent and 1 Ruby crescent. When it comes to fiction, he has submitted 2 fiction activities totalling 1,624 words and earned 3 Clusters of Ice. As a gamer, however, is where Ra'gnar often makes his mark, since the beginning of the year having earned 185 Clusters of Fire for his mobile gaming activity. In addition, Ra'gnar has also earned 6 of the new Clusters of Graphite for his graphics work. His high level of activity since the beginning of the year has been a welcome contribution to his Clan, and I am honored to recommend him for this award.
