Zuza has been, and I can’t write this enough, one of the most invigorating, pleasant additions to Clan Arcona since she first arrived. Aside from stealing everyone in Arcona’s hearts with her warm personality and endeavors to include everyone around her in engagement and competition, she has also been one of the most active contributors in Arcona and the Club at large in the 9 months since her last promotion.

During this time, Zuza has continued to be the star of Arcona, earning 544,090 credits for the Clan. She accomplished this by organizing 13 competitions herself DB-Wide, while participating in a whopping 94 competitions. The 12 fictional activities she dove into netted her 50,936 words of fiction (including Role Play efforts before they were formally counted on their own) and an additional 10,288 words from 4 recent Role Play activities themselves. This has netted her a Grand Cross, as well as an impressive 1 crescent with Diamond Star, 12 Crescent with Ruby Star, 25 Crescent with Amethyst Star, 15 Crescent with Sapphire Star, 9 Crescent with Emerald Star, 5 Crescent with Topaz Star. She has amassed 122 Clusters of Ice, 166 Clusters of Earth, and 7 Clusters of Graphite.

Beyond these impressive metrics, Zuza has also been hard at work learning the ins and outs of Leadership as Arcona’s (sadly) last Rollmaster. Over the past 4 months, this has not, in anyway, dampened her efforts or initiatives- she’s already made her presence known by having helped our two latest JM4s (Mex and Druzk) reach that milestone by making sure they were paired with the right person, and also offered her guidance and experience with navigating the site and handling the back-end administration.

Lastly, Zuza has managed to turn some impressive heads, including two members of the Dark Council. This is evident and seen in her Grand Cross (where her activity was initially recognized by the Regent) and the famous moment of getting the Master at Arms to call her “evil” for her vicious puzzle competition series.

I am continually honored and delighted to write more positive things in support of Zuza’s achievements in the Brotherhood and Clan Arcona. So a continued congratulations on reaching the rank of Equite 2. Well deserved and I know you will only continue to strive forward marching to the beat of your own heart and ambition.

Zuza has been, is, and (I hope with my Farsight +4) will continue to be one of Arcona's most Arcona-y members. Ever since joining the club, she's been a joy to behold as few members come close to her level of enthusiasm and positivity. Of course, the Clan of rainbows is perhaps stereotypically upbeat, but coming from a salty curmudgeon like myself, I can say Zuza easily lives and breathes the Arconan spirit of inclusivity and participation.

It is for that very reason that she's taken to fill some big shoes in the Rollmaster position, to which she's taken with aplomb. In Summit meetings her input has been well-measured and shows her excellent focus on that most crucial of club aspects: membership enjoyment.

I could wax lyrical, but after all the kind words Wally said, I feel like I'd just be repeating stuff, repeating stuff. As such, I shall for once keep it brief and only say I heartily support Zuza's promotion to the next rung of Equiteship.

Well earned, you majestic pickle!

Archian, while quiet, has continued to plug away at competitions and always manages to surprise us with the quality of those entries, and his contributions as a member of Voidbreaker Battleteam.

Since making Journeyman 4 2 years ago, Archian has slowly but steadily accumulated a nice sample size of activity. He has participated in 59 competitions, earned 191,000 credits for Clan Arcona, while excelling with 13,037 words of fiction (mostly from RP activity prior to the current new system being implemented). This has earned Archi 28 Clusters of Ice to go with 9 Clusters of Fire, 3 Clusters of Earth, 18 Clusters of Graphite, 1 Crescent with a Diamond Star, 4 Crescent with Amethyst Star, and 3 Crescent with Sapphire Star. He also was able to get a full 12 Seal of Enmity in the previous Vendetta run by the DC.

This slow stream of activity since JM4 shows that Archian is ready to cross over into the ranks of the Equites. I am very proud, and look forward to his continued growth and activity in the club and Clan Arcona.

My trusty former Padawan has been a dependable and enthusiastic pillar of activity through the good and the bad. Many a person can shine in the one or two things they excel at, showing up once a year when Novae are up for grabs, only to vanish into the woodwork once more. But Archian has remained as dependable in war-time as in normal time, chipping away at a comp here and an RP there. Whether it's House competitions, Clan-wide ones, or just Club-wide endeavors (not to mention his 12 Seals of Enmity), he's always been a delight to have around and more than anything, a dependable and enthusiastic participant in Arcona's dealings.

It has thus been my continued honor and joy to watch him carry on upon the path that led to his Knighting, and it is with pride I support his promotion to Equite.

Hunter Nora Olen has wasted no time integrating herself into Clan Plagueis and the Brotherhood as a whole. She has consistently earned awards and promotions that quickly paved her way forward, proving herself as a valuable asset and key member in so short a time. It has only been 28 days since her promotion to Hunter, but already, Nora has earned the necessary accolades to ascend to Knighthood. Since her last promotion, she has earned a Steel Cross, bringing her total merit award count to 3. She has also earned 16 different Crescents (1 Diamond, 6 Ruby, 3 Amethyst, 4 Sapphire, and 2 Emerald) from participation in 51 distinct competitions. She has also earned 58 Clusters of Earth and 51 Clusters of Graphite, pushing herself to Rank 6 in the Shroud Syndicate.

Nora has also proven, however, that she intends to push herself further than a mere participant. With an eagerness to enter the leadership and service side of the Brotherhood, Nora has passed the Leadership Management, Leadership Competitions, Leadership Reports, and Leadership Rewards Shadow Academy Exams. With an eagerness to be an active, influential member of the Brotherhood and the attitude to never quit, Nora has proven without a doubt that she has what it takes to become a Knight. I am confident in putting forward this Recommendation because, despite her currently brief tenure, I know she has what it takes to leave a positive impact on the club as a whole. Continue shooting for the stars, and congratulations on your promotion, Knight Nora Olen.
