I’ve had the rare pleasure of knowing Socorra Erinos for her entire time as a member in this club. From the very minute she arrived on the eve of Great Jedi War X, she hit the ground running and stormed her way forward. Her efforts rewarded her with an early chance at leadership and are a tribute to her quick rise through the ranks. I think a lot of people forget how quickly everything happened for her, and how well she adapted to it. We even forget that somehow she has never earned a Sacramental award. I plan to remedy that today.
For over a year, Socorra served Arcona as Quaestor of House Qel-Droma. Before that she served as an Aedile and before that a Battleteam Leader. She lead by example and was the most active member of the Clan in operations and events that fell between the GJWX and the Horizons Vendetta. Textbook, I know, but what Socorra brings to the table is so much more, however. Socks is passionate, fierce, and loyal to a fault. She has a unique ability to drive others to be better and challenges them to keep up with her, which is endearing in it’s own way.
Leading into the Dark Crusade, Socks helped place 2nd in the Avenger Run-On. After that, she continued to lead the way with multiple novae and ended up with a 77% participation ratio for the Dark Crusade (24 / 31). She ranks 7th in Arcona for total novae earned with 7, but 5 of those came as Gold entries. She was a member of the Arcona Special Forces team for all 3 chapters of Phase 2 and was a big part of Arcona’s conquest. It’s been an honor to work with her and watch her grow as a writer, artist, and competitor.
Her skills have advanced to the point that she was able to land a gig as Praetor to the Herald. Socks has jumped right into it with getting to work on the Warbanner queue, helping Orv assimilate back into his role on the DC. She is available and active on IRC and interacts with members of all units, dedicated to helping them communicate better with the Herlard office. She does this while also serving as an XO for Soulfire Battleteam and the Brotherhoods Forums Tribune.
For her dedication not only to Arcona, but the Brotherhood and its future, I award Socorra Erinos a Sapphire Blade in the highest honor I am able to give as her Consul and former mentor. Few members have made me more proud. Keep up the great work, Socks.

Socorra is one of those members that I have had the pleasure of watching grow from a nervous Novice to a proud and established member of the club. However, there is no doubting how or why she has managed to rise as high as she has in her relatively short time in the DB; she has earned every accolade that has been awarded to her and continues to display the traits that define the best members of this club. Active, hard-working, always there to help, talented, approachable, it's rare to run in to this sort of member, and when you find them you don't want them to leave.
Socorra's exploits have already been covered, so I'll not list them again. Instead, I'll just say a little about her as a member. Always ready to help me, she has been an exemplary XO and even though she is leaving Soulfire to help out with one of the new BTs, I know that she will always be around to help should I need it, because that's just who she is. She doesn't do things because it'll get her a shiny bauble, she does them because she can and she wants to help. I can ask for nothing more from any member, and I feel that in this instance, she more than deserves the shiny bauble that we have endeavored to award her.
Socs, you're amazing. Keep it going and keep enjoying yourself (and please don't beat me if I come to you for help). Thanks for everything.

I am honoured to be recommending Socorra for her Sapphire Blade. She has been a hard working and committed member of the Brotherhood and Clan Arcona during her tenure, she has been a huge participant and actively working on helping Clan Arcona achieve second place overall in the Dark Crusade.
Since I have known Socorra she has been a driven and focused member and a key part to Arcona, having a constant drive and self motivated member. But its the impact that she has made in Galeres that has been outstanding, since joining us she has taken on the responsibility of helping drive up the House level of activity.She has made sure everyone she speaks to is motivated and pushing themselves to achieve the best of their abilities in both activity and level of participation. This was seen through a number of events at the same time she has been going all out. Though for all of her hard work she has never stopped, taking on the position of Tribune as well as taking on the position of P:HRLD recently. She is a constantly working member of the Brotherhood, continuing to expand herself and make sure that she improves the brotherhood as a whole.
Congratulation Soccs on this Sapphire Blade, you have been awesome to work along side and have been a hard worker of this Clan. Keep up the hard work in the future I look forward to seeing what you do.
Quaestor of House Galeres

Socks has been Vizsla CON for about three months. In that time, she has organized a quick series of "Define that Word" comps for Viszla, along with way, way too many puzzles for the club as a whole. During her first quarter as Consul, Viszla's participation in competitions has been very strong: nearly 78% of Vizsla's members have participated in at least one competition, and most of those participants have submitted to dozens of competitions each (some have been in the hundreds!) The clan has also gained a net four members in that period.
Congrats, Socks!

Socorra has been Magistrate to the Herald for three months and has become an integral part of the team. She is always ready with sound advice and has a solid handle on the workings of the office. Even before she joined the staff, she stepped up to help Rian with his holiday release. She has since created 4 custom robes and 1 custom weapon, generating a total of 19 unique images. She has also approved 3 avatars, ran one Herald-approved art competition, supported her fellow staff members on their projects, and helped members meet policy requirements.
It is a pleasure to have you on my team. Congratulations on your excellent work and your sapphire blade!
