TuQ'uan Varick di Plagia is the absolute exemplar of what an active and involved senior Equite should be within our Clan. All too often members that finish tours as leaders and rotate back to the regular member role find themselves falling into a pattern of inactivity or disengagement. TuQ, on the other hand, has moved forward in his new role as a senior member of our Clan providing high levels of activity as well as invaluable peer-leadership and mentoring for newer members of our summit that have followed him. His contributions go well beyond those on the stat sheet, as they say in sports, and are invaluable in the continued success of our unit.

Since his last elevation in August of 2020 TuQ has generated respectable amounts of personal activity. He has participated in 136 total competitions since his last promotion, including a perfect 25 out of 25 in the Fifth Pro Bowl and another 28 just since the end of that competition late last year. His competition participation during the last two Vendettas netted him 9 Seals of Vision and 4 Seals of Enmity. Of those competitions, he has placed in 58 of them (a 42% clip) and amassed 3 Diamond, 12 Ruby, 18 Amethyst, 11 Sapphire, 8 Emerald, 4 Topaz, and 1 Quartz crescents and a Legion of the Scholar for good measure. He has earned 19 Clusters of Fire, 12 Clusters of Earth, 22 Clusters of Ice (with 5,429 words of fiction activity), and 17 Clusters of Graphite in demonstrating his activity across the board in a plethora of the Brotherhood's activity areas. He even passed 15 Shadow Academy courses and earned 2 degrees, proving that nobody is "too old" to broaden their Brotherhood education.

But, beyond what he has done to generate activity on a personal level, TuQ has been there to support the summit with his leadership efforts while not holding any positions himself. During the recent Pro Bowl, TuQ was there to leverage his familiarity with the process to help those that were less experienced with the nuances of the format. Describing him as "omnipresent" on Discord during the event would in fact be an understatement, as he was probably the party most responsible for driving activity by their singular actions of anyone that was there. Putting out competitions and messaging about them from a Summit level is all well and good, but without members themselves helping to drive engagement and excitement there can't be any real success. Following the Pro Bowl, I approached TuQ with a request to transfer from his then-current Battleteam Opress into the newly formed Battleteam Talzin in order to form the core of the new team with our newly appointed BTL Sinya as well as to be a guiding voice for the new summit member as well. He has truly stepped up in that capacity as well, working with Sinya to build their little corner of the Plagueis community as well as co-authoring a 2,500 word introduction fiction setting up the Battleteam with Sinya as well.

Suffice it to say, TuQ has done yeoman's work to help drive member engagement as well as in his own personal activity. He has been twice recognized for his cumulative efforts in these matters in the form of a Steel Cross and Grand Cross. The work he has done, as alluded to before, stands him in fine stead with the senior Equites in our organization, and it is my great pleasure to put his name forward for advancement to the most senior Equite rank.

Once again you have the thanks of a grateful Consul, TuQ'uan.
