Primary reason

Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar, Sang for short, is one of our most recognizable members. Since his last award in December of last year, Sang spent five months as Consul and another seven as an active, participating member of Clan Naga Sadow. As Consul, Sang consistently distinguished himself with his even perspective and his quick responses to communication. Sang was a welcome presence in any discussion, and worked alongside the Dark Council to provide his members with the best experience possible. This involved daily discussions with DC members and the other Consuls, as well as communicating directly with different DC offices to address specific membership concerns or problems, ranging from disruptive members to clarifications on larger Brotherhood policy. Prior to his retirement, Sang oversaw a period following the Great Jedi War in which Naga Sadow had more than 60% of its members active in competitions, generating almost 250 competition entries. Sang provided his members with regular activities, such as when he oversaw the internal Inferno event. At the same time, Sang was serving as the Shadow Academy Professor of the Department of Lore, a position he holds to this day. Since his last award, he has graded more than 430 exams, demonstrating a continued commitment to the Brotherhood as a whole.

And, over the last seven months, Sang has continued to demonstrate devotion and commitment to his Clan. It is in his role as a normal member that Sang has continued to stand out and demonstrated he truly deserves this Amethyst Kukri. As detailed below, Sang is an active member of the unit, an instrumental mentor for the current Consul and several other leaders. He is now an Aedile, where he has helped guide the Quaestor, DarkHawk. He's taken on a role of constant encouragement for his Clan and is always helping his Clan members, either through proofing fiction or encouraging words. Sang's personal activity is also strong, as he has competed in more than 50 competitions, most of which occurred after he stepped down as Consul. He's earned almost 1500 gaming clusters, as well as 12 Clusters of Graphite and 4 Clusters of Ice. He's earned a Gold Nova, and 21 Crescents, demonstrating that not only is he active, but also highly skilled.

In total, Sang has been instrumental to Naga Sadow and a contributor to the Brotherhood as a whole. For his efforts as Consul, and his subsequent time as one of Naga Sadow's most inpsiring and encouraging Equites, I award Sang this Amethyst Kurki. Congratulations, Sang!

What can be said about my Master Sang that has not already been brought forth time and time again. This leader is always watching a few steps back. that however does not hinder his knowledge of what is taking place within the Clan and Brotherhood. He has a way teaches without us even knowing we are being taught. I believe his greatest Leadership trait is the uncanny ability to teach so subtly we as his "parishioners" do not know it. He allows you to formulate your own agenda and motivates for its accomplishments. He is never a "show-boater", always wise and humble. It is a true asset to have him within the Clan, and now as my Aedile. I cannot recommend him enough for this prestigious award!

Sang is a No Good, scruffy looking, Pokemon Herder. He always has been and always will be, but he's mine.

Sang is irreplaceable. Proofs everything, gives hugs when people are sad, will agony aunt with you when you need someone to vent to and just generally he'll be there for everyone and anyone.

There's a reason he was a CON and there's a reason he deserves this Blade. He is a genuine soul. He helps the House and Clan and puts himself out there for others, with little complaint. He's had a rough time of late and suffered from personal issues. But he's always come back stronger.

I won't go into his personal Club achievements as Benny has done so above, Instead, I just wish to say I am proud to help recommend this reward for Sang.

Well done!

Some people don't know how to lead from the sidelines. They think you have to be in a position to lead and that it can't be done any other way. Sang has proven that it can be done. His ability to help, advise and lead as a regular member has had a tremendous impact on Naga Sadow.

He's done a lot to support House Marka Ragnos specifically by taking on some side projects for the Quaestor. I know he's an invaluable asset to the Quaestor in many ways.

He participates in as many comps as he possibly can. And he always seems willing to jump on and game with just about anyone that asks. He's done quite a few SA courses and gained 4 degrees in the process. And he's graded a ton of them too!

Sang has really shown his support of the current clan leadership. He's always willing to lend an ear or provide advice when an where it is needed to the whole clan.

I am thankful for his time and leadership and am very honored to recommend him for an Amethyst Kukri.

Sang, oh my Sang. This chap, this chap, let me tell you about this chap! Sang is and has been an asset to our Clan, yes, and he continues to do so. When I took over as Consul, Sang offered advice and support as I should need it. Before that, he helped me to develop and refine my leadership skills. Now, he continues to offer advice to his Consul, supports his members in House Shar Dakhan, and continues to act as a mascot or totem as our very own "grumpy cat" and 40k enthusiast, spurring folks on in a way I can only describe as Sang-like.

He can be a quiet voice, but when he speaks I certainly give him an ear. He is not afraid to tell me how things are, or where he feels that things have come up short. Not that Sang stops there! When House Shar Dakhan was looking for an Aedile, Sang leapt into the role to help our newly-position Darkhawk lead as we headed into the Vendetta.

The mentorship and example that I received under Sang helped to craft me into the leader I am today, and helped to hook me into the Clan and by extension the Brotherhood as a whole. Seriously though, words cannot even begin to describe the depth of my appreciation for Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar, which makes me happy to put good words in for him. I mean, he spent the last year working in the Shadow Academy as Professor, five months (since his last recognition) and has been serving as Aedile of Shar Dakhan for two months, but he has never really lost his down to earth manner.

He's taken part in some fifty-three competitions, played lots of Heroes of the Storm, fought in at least one ACC battle, and even found time as a student in the Shadow Academy- passing 20 courses and earning four degrees! (You know, besides having graded an enviable 415 courses in his own department.) Sang has been no slouch, having earned a Gold Nova and seven Seals of Fury in the Rite of Supremacy: Meridian and 21 Crescents of varying levels in normal competitions. Well, I can't forget the Legion of the Scholar he earned, the 3 Pendants of Blood he got for Diablo 3 and Heroes of the Storm, or the 1378 Clusters of Earth he grinded out gaming with folks. Every time that Sang has come up with a graphics entry, it has been something neat or amusing. Plus, it helped him to rack up 12 Clusters of Graphite so a Sang-graphics-entry is always a win-win! Sang also continues to write fiction, having written 154 words over two fiction entries and completing the beforementioned ACC fight. His interest is in greater than just his own accolades though. Sang also helped to proof a LOT of fiction for folks across the Clan. He has proofed event fiction for myself, ACC posts for Kojiro, and is ready and willing to help those who need a proofer so that their own fiction can shine.

Talking about statistics can really only do so much. For all of his bluster, Sang really is a pretty nice chap, has put out a lot of work over quite some time. I count Sang among one of my friends, though that fact is not why I am here writing this right now. Sang has earned this. As such, I am more than happy to hold him up in recognition for this Amethyst Kukri.

Primary reason

Five times, five times now in my DB career I have either initiated or been an additional commenter on this flippin guys awards and promos! I do not know what the ratio is for an apprentice to award their Master, but just from this ol’ knuckledragger’s POV, it's pretty flippin cool! It truly is an honor to be able to be a part of Professor Sanguinius Entar’s reccs.

The Professor is just one of those guys you cannot help but admire. Whenever I see his name or we end up chatting, I always envision Sang dressed in a boujee suit with bow tie, monocle and a top hat. A driver dressed in a mid century tuxedo opening the door for him to a classic Mercedes Benz limo! All my facetiousness aside, Professor Entar is a highly respected member, leader and mentor to all of us.

Since his last recognition, the Professor has been knocking at the door towards certain goals and aspirations. He has participated in one hundred sixty two comps, earned eighty one Crescents and eighty three Clusters. When he is not gaming or knocking out competitions, Sang has found his way into writing in Clan RP sessions.

When all that is not taking place, Professor Entar is sought after for council from not only myself but the Clan as a whole. Like many other Sadowans, Sang has helmed all positions within the Clan and has been a steadfast Professor and Magistrate over at the SA. So it is safe to say that even though he has recently transitioned to not being in a leadership role, his influence is still felt throughout the Clan. Furthermore, not shying away from an opportunity to lead, Sang has Captained the CNS members of team Frogdogs to consecutive Probowl victories.

The Professor has always been a strong presence here within CNS. We see him engaged with both members and Summit. Whether he is acting as mentor, soundboard or encouraging folks to keep pressing on towards their goals. His presence is felt indeed. He religiously encourages gaming by gaming (even though it's probably HoTS) almost every weekend on a DJB supported platform.

It is with great honor that Summit can present this award to Professor Sanguinius Entar. You are a pillar in our community and are more than deserving of this award. Congratulations Sir!!!!

The Professor is a constant in CNS these days, as constant and consistent as he was while on the Shadow Academy Staff. Ever-present, calming, and with just enough humor and dry wit to serve as garnish, Sang has encouraged so many of us, young and old alike to Do More, be it during the Great Jedi Wars, the Pro-Bowls, or even just average daily life.

Often the odd man out, as one of a scant few light-siders in this Ancient Clan, he leverages his unique path here to great effect in his writing. That uniqueness works quite well, increasing our footprint and giving depth and gravitas to what we all do here in the clan.

Given his depth of understanding of the systems and stories of the brotherhood, the Professor lives up to his name whenever a new person has a question about …well, anything. I’ve seen him get down into the weeds with them and show them not only where the answer is, but how to find future answers themselves, coaching them on how to be able to do the same for others. He’s been invaluable from a summit perspective, offering his expertise on any number of projects, from clan storyline moves to fleet arguments.

His mentorship of members has led him to be one of the most widely respected and liked members of the clan. Even our Consul, who joined a full eight years before he did, counts Sanguinius as his Master and Mentor. With that in mind, I am exceptionally pleased to be able to recommend that he be awarded this Amethyst Kukri as a token for all the work that he has done thus far. Thank you, Sang.
