Since October 27th 2019, Appius Wight has been a massive help in providing conversation topics within the club’s Fiction Community. Since that date, he has asked approximately 152 different character questions spurring both relevant and meaningful discussion as well as a great opportunity for members to think about different facets of their characters.
Questions range from things such as backstory events, why certain skills are at the level they are on the CS, future plans, and more. They encapsulate the entire character and story process our system allows.
These questions are brilliant, and to continually come up with ones is no easy feat. The previous iteration of character questions under Wally functioned via a google form where anyone could submit questions for discussion. Many of those were never used as it was prone to trolling, and of its 300ish questions, they came from literally dozens of different members. That Appius has generated all of these very quality questions/prompts is astounding. I’ve not once had to worry that he has asked something inappropriate, and more often than not, these trigger the main discussions of the day within Fiction Chat.
For this massive contribution to the fictional side of the club, and for continually trying to foster a positive, good, and inclusive community there, I recommend Appius be awarded this Grand Cross.

I don’t think anyone will be surprised at this reference, but when it comes to describing Appius’ contributions to the DB, I think Aaron Burr said it best: “Man, the man is non-stop!”
First, his numbers on the individual-member level are consistently high. Since his last recognition (a promotion to EQ2 on Dec. 24, 2020), Appius has participated in 49 competitions. He’s completed 7 fiction activities totalling 22,156 words, 9 ACC battles, and 2 run-on posts for 1460 words. As a result, he’s amassed a Crescent with Diamond Star, 3 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 3 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, and 2 Crescents with Sapphire Stars. Overall, his activities have earned him 2 Clusters of Fire, 81 Clusters of Ice, 25 Clusters of Graphite, and a Legion of the Scholar.
Second, Appius' contributions during Rite of Supremacy: Escalation were major factors in Taldryan's second-place finish. He participated in 22 out of 29 events, the most of any Taldryan member, and captured third place among the Expansionists faction. Besides his personal efforts, he contributed heavily as a leader, from the pre-Vendetta "RoS Hype" we sent out to persuading at least one Taldryan member to participate in the RoS when they hadn't originally planned to do so.
On a leadership note, Appius has organised 13 competitions since his last recognition in December, and has several others queued up for the near future. He's been a constant presence in both the Taldryan Summit and Taldryan Story Group chats, and took the lead on developing the storyline for our next Clan event. His "Character Questions" (which he posted several times per week prior to the RoS) have become a fixture in DB Fiction. I'll let Ciara speak to his contributions to the Shadow Academy.
In light of his continued outstanding contributions to both Taldryan and the Brotherhood at large, I hereby nominate Appius for a Sapphire Blade. Congratulations, App App!

Appius joined the Shadow Academy staff in January as a Magistrate dedicated to promoting the hype and lore of Star Wars. As he does everywhere we goes, in formal positions or out, Appius jumped straight into doing #allthethings. As a Magistrate, he does anything I ask of him almost immediately, but he also generates his own ideas and comes to me constantly with ideas to help improve the Academy or the Brotherhood. We’re still working on some of these ideas, so we’ll have to wait until next time to laud some of those, but I mention it here to illustrate the drive and character with which he approaches everything he does.
The first major project he took on as Magistrate was helping the Shadow Academy start hosting regular trivia competitions. He worked with me to test the Telegram quiz bot we’re using now until we were comfortable it would work in a bigger environment and took on the task of learning to use it to run the trivia. So far, he’s run three of these competitions (with a fourth already complete but scheduled to run next weekend) – but he doesn’t just run them. He creates the 20-question trivia questions and answers, puts them in the bot with added images for most questions, tests them a few times privately with me to ensure we won’t run into any hiccups, and then HYPES them in every channel repeatedly to ensure anyone who may want to participate knows about it and doesn’t miss it! He takes this role seriously and usually has topics and questions prepared or near complete well in advance.
He also recently completed the revision of Mandalorian Studies into Mandalorian Culture Studies – an effort that was more than just updating sections or proofing but entirely re-considering and re-writing a course to let the culture stand on its own apart from the old Mandalorian history section that we separated into another course. He has also already written a draft of over 2,500 words for what will become Mandalorian History 102 once the content and exam are finalized.
He’s also graded 21 exams in his role of “substitute” grader, which is assisting professors when they’re unavailable to grade or catching any exams that go over the 24-hour mark.
Finally, more than what he produces, Appius always has an upbeat attitude that makes working with him easy and enjoyable. He’s also extremely eager to learn and seems to do everything he does in the spirit of making things more fun for other members of this club. He’s been a sounding board to me for different ideas and I’ve found his input highly valuable as someone who has become so connected with the broad membership. Appius has more than exceeded my expectations of a Magistrate and I couldn’t be happier to add my recommendation for this first sacramental award!
