Manual Administration

Master Windos, 2015-05-01 14:05:26 UTC

Reserved for those who show a drive rivalling that of the Brotherhood’s elite are the Equite ranks. Each one warrants a certain kind of selflessness that a member shows in favour of the betterment of their Clan. Whether this drive accounts for leadership, activity or project contributions, the exact avenues one can follow towards these ranks are limitless. Seridan is an example of one of these members who has not only earned an elevation to the Equite ranks, but no less than three Steel Crosses since attaining Knighthood. Some members would burn out after the labour of following continuous sets of guidelines. Others would note the lack of guidelines and seek direction. Seridan is one of those members who has never asked for reward for his efforts, but continues to draw the attention of his peers through his contributions, nonetheless.

Working alongside V’yr Vorsa has given him some recognition for his efforts in maintaining our wiki articles to provide us with the best, most organized and completed libraries to date in the Brotherhood - That’s a fact, and one that is evidenced in his recommendations for no less than two of the three Steel Crosses. Further proof of this quality is recognized in the articles for the Legion of Steel, Paladin Squadron, Shadow Company and Ooroo articles, which he worked tirelessly to complete, reformat, and in some cases, write from scratch. As if his article contributions weren’t enough to warrant a promotion, Seridan has proved time and again to be one of Clan Odan-Urr’s top participants in Clan-level events. This Jedi Knight managed to place himself on the leaderboards in the last two Clan events, consecutively in both Return of the Light as a first-place participant and Tales of New Tython as a third place participant.

Regardless of placement in competitions, Seridan hasn’t burned out or lost interest. I would list all of the competitions Seridan has participated in since his elevation to Jedi Knight, were it not that the list were sixty-nine competitions long. In addition to this mountain of entries, he’s gained himself a Crescent with Ruby Star, two Crescents with Amethyst Stars, six Crescents with Sapphire Stars, seven Crescents with Emerald Stars, ten Crescents with Topaz Stars, five Crescents with Quartz Stars, twenty Clusters of Fire and nine Clusters of Ice. That’s a total of thirty-one Crescents gained through competition placements, almost half of the amount of competitions he’s participated in has gained him an award for the quality of entries he has shown. In addition to this, he’s also contributed in Vendettas, earning two Seals of Revelation and three Seals of the Crusader. He would also co-organize three competitions and participate in an ACC battle, with more being fought.

I have no doubts that Seridan is ready to take the next step into the Equites for his contributions through the last year. Congratulations!

Since I became BTL of Strike-Team Ooroo last March, I always record Medal awards in my BTL reports and every time I file a report, Seridan is always on the list with something. To recap, since last month he already received numerous awards for his placement on various competitions, mostly fiction which is his area of expertise: Clusters of Ice x2, Crescent of Amethyst x1, Crescent of Sapphire x3, Crescent of Emerald x3, Crescent of Topaz x1 and Crescent of Quartz x1. For gaming activity, he received 5 Clusters of Fire and was recently elevated to GMRG Rank II. In Training or Shadow Academy area, he completed six exams: Leadership Rewards, Runon Studies, Leadership Reports, Grammar Studies, Leadership Competitions and Writing Studies, all with flying colors and for that efforts he just gained the Dark Maven - Writing degree. So when I decided to name the most active member of STO aka Ooroo's Prodigy of March 2015, Seridan is the undoubtedly choice.

But he goes far beyond that as he also involves in our Battleteam and Clan project, notably in Wiki project. To the betterment of our Battleteam, he submitted several ideas and offered himself to assist in fiction and wiki stuff, something he is very capable of. Therefore I appointed him as our Corporal or Chronicler with duty to update and maintain the STO's wiki, a duty which is he carries on with pleasure and diligently. Furthermore, he also completed/contributed the Legion of Steel, Paladin Squadron, Darik Puka (NPC) and Shadow Company wiki pages for our Clan Wiki Update project. And for that, he was awarded a Steel Cross by the project leader, our PCON, V’yr Vorsa.

All in all, Seridan deserves the elevation to the next rank and begin his path as an Equite as he is what I wish every member in STO would be, self-motivated, hard-working and extremely dedicated. Sentinel Scout Seridan Brehevik, your participation and ethos as a member of this Clan is a beacon for all to aspire to. Thanks mate and congratulations on your promotion! :)

I've only had the pleasure of working with Seridan for a little over a month now. But what a month it has been. Seridan and I worked together on an entry for the wiki event of the first part of Tales, the Odan-Urr competition series. I got some good insight into how Seridan works while we collaborated. He meets (and exceeds) deadlines, isn't afraid to put his hand up for the work he wants to do and completes it to a high standard.

We managed to place second in that event, and Seridan left me in the dust in the rest of the competitions, managing to place third overall.

Seridan and I also recently completed a short ACC match. It's currently awaiting judgement, but I am sure he will come out victorious. I royally butchered the opening post, but Seridan took it in his stride; flexing his writing muscles to recover from a poor start to the story and bringing the whole situation back on track.

Why do I waste your time recounting these two anecdotes? To me, they demonstrate Seridan's truly commendable attitude. He genuinely loves what he is doing here in the Brotherhood and is doing thing to not only help himself, but to help those around him.

I see before me the Brotherhood's next great leader. One that doesn't just file the required reports and wait for the people 'under' him to find their own way through. But a leader the jumps in alongside his fellow members, leading by example and acting - as our motto suggests - as a shining beacon.

Seridan, I already count you among my good friends in the Brotherhood. Congratulations, and welcome to the ranks of the equites, Scout Seridan.

Everybody in House Satele Shan was given the unique opportunity to create a brand new house from scratch. Most people were excited, but Seridan hit the ground running. His participation in competitions has been exemplary, but where he really shines is his willingness to help out with all sorts of work on the Wiki, and, when not being given tasks, seeks out the summit on his own to get more work. He has already written the Wiki portion for the Jedi complex of HSS, pretty much from scratch, which means his design and imagination will be a solid part of House Satele Shan's lore for years. His stellar rise to Jedi Knight was on Caleb-level regarding speed, but he's worked just as hard for and is just as deserving of Equite.

Seridan's work-ethic and ability are easily matched by his personality. He is friendly and a delight to have both on the mailing list and on IRC, and he will be a great mentor for new members as well as a true ambassador of what COU stands for beyond the fiction and fluff; namely, he's a damn nice guy and I'm glad that he's in House Satele Shan.

Great work, Seridan!
