Today, we celebrate a creative genius and intrepid writer, a friendly face and a helping hand, and, I can guarantee, a bright flame in this Clan's history. Today, we celebrate Lucine's ascension to Knighthood. It's been my honor and pleasure to mentor Lucine this far, and as her Master, I can most certainly say that few of her caliber or time have so well earned it.

In the course of the last month, Lucine has more than demonstrated explosive spark and drive in fulfilling the requirements for her promotion, including her participation in several competitions in which she won Crescents — not to mention her first place in a fiction for which she wrote over 21,000 words — and taking home 43 Clusters of Ice. Moreover, she helped (co)organize multiple competitions for her Clan to provide activity for her peers, and this, along with all her other accomplishments, was enough to earn her a Dark Cross for her efforts.

It is for all these contributions, but also for her positive attitude, constant cheer, aptitude, and ability to go above and beyond that we welcome Lucine to the rank of Knight, and for which we eagerly await all the more she will doubtlessly take our breath away with in the future. Congratulations, my dear. You've more than earned the prestige.

Lucine Vasano is one in a million. Or at least one in 14,877. A member for barely four months, she has already made a name for herself amongst her brethren in Arcona. As her Quaestor, I have seldom been prouder of a member under my command. She is independent, driven, and constantly active within her Battleteam, House and Clan. Her numeric achievements - the competitions she's participated in, the Clusters and Crescents earned, and the insane amount of fiction she has written - are well documented, but they fail to encapsulate her as a member. She is a light within the Clan, and a welcome, fresh face full of energy and enthusiasm. She took it upon herself to expand many fictional aspects of Shadow Gate and Qel-Droma in her own fictions, and worked with her Summit to help incorporate those elements into the official "lore" of Qel-Droma and its home Port Ol'val. She has also volunteered to help with numerous other projects, still ongoing, in addition to continuing to flesh out the new gangs and locations she created for Ol'val.

Were these the whole of her achievements, that would be enough, but she is also a consistently positive experience within Arcona. Her talent, aptitude and congenial nature all serve as inspiration to her peers, and drive those around her to further their own abilities and goals.

For all the effort she puts in, and the buoyant cheerfulness with which she does so, it is my honor to recommend her elevation to Knighthood.

Congratulations, Lucine!

Since her promotion last May, Xenna has shown constant and steady activity. Not even counting her continuous presence on Telegram and communication therein, she managed two Battleteams — Tal'mahe'Ra and Nighthawk, moving to the latter when the former was consolidated into a single Battleteam. During those six months she has put down four reports and gradually developed as a leader. Further personal improvement is shown in her pursuit of knowledge, completing six Shadow Academy courses and an additional degree. Her own development of others is evident in the Scroll of Foundation and Scroll of the Master that she was awarded for her tutelage of Tali, who has likewise become an avid personality.

Miss Azara has also not been idle outside of leadership. Between organizing fifteen competitions, she has further participated in seventy three others, placing in seven of them and earning a good handful of Clusters along the way. The Steel Cross and Anteian Cross attributed to her activity give further credit to her ability and the trust from her leadership for continued support.

With all this in mind, I recommend and humbly request the promotion of Mystic Xenna Azara to the second Equite rank of Savant. She is a fine member of Galeres and Arcona, and I look forward to seeing her grow in the future.

When I jumped over from Rollmaster to Aedile at the start of the year, Xenna was already running one Battleteam and transitioned well into running her second. She's taken direction and suggestion with an open mind and without anger, solid signs of a leader learning through doing.

She also helped mentor one of my personal recruits while I was RM in Tali, which I appreciate, and proved she can work with people of questionable sanity. Besides myself and Q, anyway.

Good job, Xenna, welcome to Equite 2!

General Stres'tron'garmis, 2017-04-30 16:47:55 UTC

As her Quaestor and Aedile will allude, Xenna is an active member and stable leader in House Galeres and in Arcona itself, promoting competitions, engaging her membership, and participating avidly in summit discussions at all levels, even when she felt daunted by particular challenges. Besides her general presence, Xenna has been a strong participant and willing helper in recent Clan events, earning herself Crescents in the last episode of Sins of the Past and volunteering her character for use in the plot updates published for the event.

Xenna is a current and future leader in this club, and we can only thank her with the recognition she's come to earn. Congrats, Xenna, and welcome to Equite II.
