Primary reason

If you had asked a slightly-less-old me, 7 years ago, if I had thought that I would be the one handing out awards to Aura, rather Blade, I would have laughed at the thought, closed Telegram, and probably gone back to playing Final Fantasy or seeing just how quickly she could dismantle me in Jedi Academy... As I'm sure we all know, the answer was extremely. A continual and resolute face among Clan Odan-Urr, Blade was the second face I met when I joined the Brotherhood, after Arch and excluding my recruiter Nero, ever a driving force in Clan Odan-Urr, particularly in her desire to keep us all gaming and competing against one another with her weekly game nights. Recent major life events have kept the weaponized Doge away from us for a while now, but, I'm glad to hand onto her this award, as recent changes to catch up reflect the efforts and actions she's given to the Brotherhood through the years.

Ever onward, Blade

Primary reason

Since Blade’s last merit award she has accumulated enough XP for an Anteian Cross by organizing and co-organizing a combined 10 competitions and participated in 4. She also served 3 months as Proconsul and 6 months as Magistrate to the Seneschal during this time. For this she deserves some recognition. Congrats!

Primary reason

Nobody is more deserving of recognition than Aura. Having held multiple positions over the year, such as SWTOR Tribune, Magistrate to the Grand Master, and currently Magistrate to the Seneschal and Proconsul, the amount of work she puts in and her drive to make the Club a welcoming home for its members bleeds into everything she does.

It's been a little over a year since I pulled her back out of retirement to reprise her role as Proconsul and has been dutifully aiding me in carrying out my vision for the Clan, contributing multiple ideas on fictional elements such as the Locus Vera Farm and Siji Sing Dipengini and how to incorporate and use them in our story arcs as well as where to take the Clan after each large event. She's run multiple roleplays, gaming sessions and hosted events such as the current Seven Pillars. She willingly devoted hundreds of hours both in running 25 Community Events and participating in an additional 27, pulling members out from the shadows, getting them active, and giving them the best DB experience she can. Aura is a welcoming and positive presence whose impact is felt by every member of Odan-Urr.

Since her last recognition, she has participated in 87 competitions, earning her 2 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 14 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 6 Crescents with Emerald Stars, and 1 Crescent with Topaz Star. Her 110 gaming activities have netter 306 Clusters of Fire and 953 Clusters of Earth. She has also written a total of 9,601 words of fiction for 27 Clusters of Ice and her stick figures have earned her 20 Clusters of Graphite. Additionally, she has received 2 Seals of Loyalty and 16 Seals of Ascension for her efforts during the last Club-wide event in which she also was awarded 1 Silver and 2 Bronze Nova. Lastly, she ran 7 Competitions, Co-Ordganized 17, made 1 News Post, and posted 9 Comments.

Odan-Urr wouldn't be the same without her guidance, leadership, and love of community and friendship. Thank you, Aura for everything you've done for me, the Clan, and the Club as a whole. Congratulations on your Amethyst Kukri!

Additional reasons

Aura - or Blade as many of us know her - has been at the forefront of just about every major Odan-Urr event, decision, and effort to shape our culture since I have been a member. With stints in any leadership role extending for years at a time, it's difficult to pin down a month where she has been even remotely inactive. While having many, many awards to her name from no end of competitions, a better indicator of Blade's devotion is the sheer volume of community activities she has pushed. Many of Odan-Urr's fiction based roleplays, TOR runs, and some of the best Cards Against Humanity sessions the Brotherhood has ever seen were all run under her name. It's no exaggeration to say that there are none who have done more to help Odan-Urr remain active and entertaining for our members.

Blade has earned this award many times over. Because of all she has done, I happily second the nomination that she be granted a third Amethyst Kukri for her collection of serrated awards. Enjoy it and the credits that come with it, Aura. One more and you'll have one for each of your characters.
