There is a distinct difference between those who 'tell' and those who 'do'. Those who 'tell' tend to speak volumes about their many accomplishments. They tend to be vocal, loud and extremely brash about how deserving they are of an award, even when such an award may not be warranted. Those who 'do' are an entirely different breed. These people endeavour to enjoy their time in the Brotherhood. They tend to work quietly in the background, often without want or recognition. Inarya is very much the latter.
The last time this woman was promoted, I was a Dark Jedi Knight and an Aedile in House Galeres. That was the 3rd July, 2010. 2 years, 8 months, 19 days. She has been consistently active over that time, racking up a great many accomplishments, some tangible and some not so. Sanguinius and Cethgus go into further detail about the nuances of her tangible activity, but I'd like to just spend a moment shedding some light on that which is not so easily quantified. You see, Inarya is more than just a member. She is, for all intents and purposes, a guide. When I first joined Arcona, she was the first to offer an open hand and walk me through what the clan entailed. Since then, she has done the same with a great many more. I know she has personally mentored Kalon, K'tana, Nath and Bron, and I'm sure there are many, many more that she has helped behind the scenes. The point is, she is selfless. She works to help others. And that quality is rarely seen, and often overlooked. She has, in this sense, been a leader-cum-mentor. She has guided, she has directed and she has seen dividends paid. This kind of selflessness in the Brotherhood is the reason I am still here today. That applies across the board. Indeed, if it were not for her, I'm sure Arcona's membership would be a lot worse off.
Then we get to her leadership. Inarya was a boon to Arcona in the early days of my tenure within House Galeres. She was consistently active, and consistently driven to achieve. This filtered down into Sukhur's Legion, her unit. This Battleteam was, at the time, the most successful battleteam in Arcona bar none. That even compares to Marick's Oblivion Brigade - I need not say that Marick is an individual who went on to become my Proconsul. In this sense she was a pioneer. At any chance or opportunity, Inarya would give the membership something to immerse themselves in. Whether that was a competition (of which there were legion in my short time within the battleteam), project work or fictional development. She did all of this off her own back, and all of it for the betterment of her battleteam, House Galeres and - importantly - Clan Arcona. Of course, this demonstration of leadership ground to a halt when Arcona went into 'administration'. It was only after we were reclanned that she finally found her feet again.
Indeed, I have covered some of her 'leadership' inasmuch as her role as a mentor and a guide. I feel this is a demonstration of leadership that warrants more than a title. It is a selflessness given by an individual for the betterment of another. But, in some ways, she does this for the leaders of today, too. She is for all intents and purposes a background summit member. Her activity behind the scenes is nothing to be snubbed at. She is currently working with Invictus to action a complete wikipedia overhaul; she was one of the leaders in a group of individuals assigned to overseeing the Arconan Fleet reshuffle, and she is constantly begging for yet more work. This is action speaking louder than words. This is her being a member who 'does', rather than a member who 'tells'. She does this to help Arcona. She does this for the clan's sake. In that sense, she is as much a leader as myself and Marick.
I will now give way to the Quaestor and Aedile of House Galeres and let them shed some light on what I have coined her 'quantifiable' activity. Let me just say that this promotion is long overdue, but she has not moaned or asked. She has simply continued to do what she does. Now its time to see her activity and her help be rewarded properly.
Thank you, Inarya, for all your hard work and dedication. Congratulations.

Consul. Clan Arcona.
This promotion rec has been a long time coming, since her last promotion, Inarya has been a stalwart member of Galeres, serving as a BTL of Revenance Virtuom for several months, a mentor to other BTLs and helping the general activity of the House. In the months since her last promo, Inarya has gained a Steel Cross, an Anteian Cross, a Dark Cross, 1 Crescent with Ruby star, 1 Crescent with Sapphire star, 2 Crescents with Emerald stars, 1 Crescent with Amethyst, 251 Clusters of Fire, 4 Clusters of Ice and 2 Seals of Defiance. She has also completed GMRG history and progressed through the ranks of the GMRG as well as completing the last two SA Cryptology exams in Dark Crusade with 100%.
Inarya has run the following competitions: The Price of Failure, Humble Beginnings and participated in the following competitions: [Operation Haystack] Graphics #1, Break up the Fistâs Praetor: Cethgus, [ToL -Week 1] Battleplan, [ToL -Week 1] Team Name/Logo, [ToL -Week 1] Antagonise, [ToL -Week 2] Battleplan Pt.2, [ToL -Week 2] Acronym, [ToL -Week 2] Poetry: Lost Love, [BTH - Week 1] Fiction, [BTH - Week 1] Graphics, [BTH - Week 1 & 2] Run-On, [BTH - Week 1] Flash Game, [BTH - Week 1] Trivia, Arcona/Plagueis ID Scan, Beyond the Horizon: A Cooperative Event, Dark Crusade Week 1 Events: Ancient Stone Fiction, The Hunt Graphics, Reconnaissance Team Wiki page, Encryption Shadow Academy Event. Dark Crusade Week 2 Events: My Friend, My Enemy Fiction, Battle for Rhelg Gaming Event, Advanced Recon Graphics Event, The Betrayers Headstone Run-On event, Encryption Shadow Academy Exam.
Inarya also participated heavily in the creation of the Arcona Force Wraiths wiki page, by collecting up all of the descriptions of the Force Wraiths in Arcona, as well as the creation of the wiki page itself and editing the page. Inarya also worked alongside Maaks in the creation and completion of the Revenance Virtuom Battleteam wiki page which consisted of the history of the team as well as the description of the individual armour that each member wore. She did this in addition to creating the teamâs logo, the teamâs internal structure and other items on the wiki page. Her last major project was to lead a team of Galereans in the Arconan Fleet reboot for the Galeresâ mothership, the Bothan Assault Cruiser Darkest Night. This project saw Inarya completely rehaul the wiki page, creating a massively in-depth wiki page for the vessel in addition to creating several NPCs with detailed wiki pages. This project also saw Inarya creating background for a new fighter squadron on the BAC and assisting two Journeymen of Galeres in creating 2 more squadrons and a CAG commander for the Darkest Night which greatly expanded the lore of the militant House of the Shadow Clan.
I mentioned it briefly earlier, but Inarya has most recently served as Flight Leader under Nath Voth, a new addition to the Galeres summit. She has worked hard to assist Nath and help her develop into a leader and giving her advice and help when needed.
Inarya has always been a member that Iâve tried to push further and harder than others to achieve the tasks and goals I knew she could and Iâm proud to see that sheâs done so well these past few months in securing the power and activity of Galeres. She has formed part of the core of active Equites that give so much of their time and effort to make the House the great place it is today. Without Inarya, I think Galeres would be a duller place and as such, Iâm pleased to give this recommendation that she be promoted to Krath Archpriestess. Congratulations, Inarya.
Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar
Quaestor of House Galeres
I am honoured to be recommending Inarya for the promotion to Krath Archpriestess. She has been a beacon of activity inside of Clan Arcona and House Galeres. She has been an inspiration to everyone with her dedication to this Clan. Though Sanguinius has already summed up her activity, I am going to take a look at her as a person.
Inarya is always willing to help the members of her Clan, offering her assistance and support whenever anyone needs it. She always puts others before herself in any situation and offers support and advice to members who need help. Inarya has more importantly been taking the time to help teach a new Battleteam Leader the ropes, helping her improve and learn what is required of her. Though this has been no easy road, Inarya has continued to stick out with it helping this member grow as a leader inside of Clan Arcona. Sharing her wisdom and experience during this time.
Though this is not the only thing that Inarya has done since for members, she also takes the time to speak to everyone and make sure they are ok on real life as well, this is stepping up and above the place of a normal member and doing more than expected off her. She always pushes others to do their best even when they doubt their abilities. Her activity on its own speaks volumes about her, but taking into consideration everything else that she does on a day to day basis is also inspiring.
She continues to put out a lot of activity on a high scale, providing House Galeres and Arcona with a stable member who consistently performs highly. She drives not only herself but the others around her to be active as possible.
Her hard work and dedication to her clan has gone above the level of normal members. She has constantly proven herself time and time again. For these reasons I welcome Inarya to the rank of Krath Archpriestess. Congratulations, Inarya on your promotion and keep up the hard work inside of Clan Arcona.
Cethgus Tiberius Entar Arconae
Aedile of House Galeres
Since I have known Inarya, she has been extremely active, always willing to help and give advice. When I have needed help she has always been there to help and supported me throughout my short time as BTL.
I have had the privilege of working with her on other projects as well such as the BAC Darkest Night. She has shown great skill as a teacher, showing others what is needed when creating different kinds of wiki pages from bios to squadrons.
She has been extremely active since I have known her, participating in the Dark Crusade as well as other activities such as gaming, competitions and the Shadow Academy.
I am proud to have her not only as a member of Dark Forge but also as my Flight Leader. She is an amazing example to Arcona and always willing to give her time to not only learn but also teach others.
Nath Voth
Battleteam Leader of Dark Forge
