Edgar Drachen has reached the required 85000 XP to reach the rank of Elder 1.

Edgar, you finally made it!

It's been a long time coming, my friend. But it's certainly deserved. I've known you for quite some time now. You were the Quaestor of Hoth when Gui got his start and you were always a passionate and dedicated leader. I was thrilled to see you return and was happy to see that you picked up where you left off. Jumping back into the gaming fold as one of the most active gamers of our Clan. You have always been a pillar of Odan-Urr and I'm glad that I can be the one to push this one through. As is customary, I can't toss up a rec without mentioning just some of the things you've done since your last elevation. 

Not only has Ed  run 38 competitions but he has participated in a whopping 385 and participated in 480 gaming activities. He has earned an Amethyst Kukri, Sapphire Blade, 2 Grand Crosses, 2 Anteian Crosses, 1 Silver Nova, 3 Crescent with Diamond Stars, 14 Crescent with Ruby Stars, 25 Crescent with Amethyst Stars, 14 Crescent with Sapphire Stars, 12 Crescent with Emerald Stars, 5 Crescent with Topaz Stars, 2 Crescent with Quartz Stars, 9 Pendants of Blood, 3795 Clusters of Fire, 1 Cluster of Ice, 24 Clusters of Graphite, 1 Scroll of Indoctrination, 6 Scroll of Foundation, 1 Scroll of the Master, 5 Seals of Fury, 3 Seals of Discord, 6 Seals of Visions, 9 Seals of Enmity, Served for 5 months as a Quaestor, and 4 months as a Praetor to the Headmaster and Docent. 

Well done, Ed, keep killin it!

Three months ago the Hoth father came back to us and has been an indispensable part of unit activity since. Continually battling with Windos for the honor of the top spot in claiming the Scimitar of Hoth and just overall presence. Another amongst the myriad of faces I first met when I joined The Brotherhood seven years ago, I'm glad to see his continuous efforts and actions through the years have finally paid off, and I find it in good humour that I had just graded a competition moments before getting the promotion request.

This is something long overdue, Edgar,
Ever Onward, to greater heights.

Edgar, the man, the myth, the legend. The Hothfather, cane waver and many other nicknames he’s garnered over the years. I’ve known Ed a long time, his is the only PIN I know beyond my own because we joined on the same day and his is one higher than mine. So I am uniquely situated to speak on his career and why his elevation to the Elder ranks has been a long time coming.

First, Edgar is a leader. As I said in a Sapphire Blade he is one of the finest unit leaders I have ever known or worked with. He is passionate, driven and always puts his members first. He cheerleads individual members to excel, as one of the most effective activity promoters I’ve ever seen. His mere presence on a summit drives all the leaders around him to step up their game and provide the best experience for their members. When in a leadership role he is a prolific content creator, hosting multiple house events and helping found the lore of House Hoth and the planet Solyiat. He led by example in terms of individual activity. And when he settled into “cane waver” status as we say in COU, he remained a tireless advocate for the individual members. I do not exaggerate in the least when I say that Edgar directly and meaningfully contributed to the success of COU in the 2015-2018 era. Certainly my terms as Proconsul and Consul would not have been as successful without Ed’s hard work and spirit.

Second, Edgar is a consummate gamer. As the sitting Fist I can speak to Edgar’s contributions to the gaming community. Officially Ed served as Praetor to the Fist for which he received a sapphire blade just for his Fist staff work. In the Fist office Ed exhibited his high standard of work, testing out and proposing new gaming platforms (he helped lead the charge to get Heroes of the Storm approved), helping with the administration of the office and onboarding of new Magistrates and innovating in Fist staff content creation. He personally processed 673 gaming submissions directly supporting 201 unique members. Informally Edgar has always driven gaming activity, forming gaming groups, helping others get clusters, teaming up with other members to help with PVE content, etc. When Ed is around and active he’s usually down to play just about anything. His presence in the gaming community helped it not only grow but helped members form those connections with one another through gaming together.

Ed has made an impact on COU, the gaming community and the club as a whole. He may be semi-retired these days, but few can deny that he has walked the path of an elder long before this day. He has more than earned this elevation to the elder ranks under any standard, old or new.

Congrats old friend.
