Firstly, one must commend Ood for his grand amounts of activity over his career in DB. One would describe Ood Bnar as being a very passionate member of Arcona. He is not only superbly involved with his vast amounts of competition participation but also on Discord as he offers feedback and member insight to developments related to the house and battle team. Since the last merit (just seven months ago), Ood has achieved the following awards: 1 Silver Nova for the Clan-Wide Run On during the GJW XV Ascension, 16 Clusters of Ice with 5,669 words, 3 Clusters of Earth, 7 Clusters of Graphite, and 12 Seals of Ascension for his activity during the war. He participated in 100% of the bins within the war and his efforts helped propel Arcona to 1st place victory. No matter what activity is needed to assist the clan, Ood is not afraid to participate. This is evident by the 709,410 credits earned for the clan. Since the last merit, he has participated in 131 competitions and was awarded many Crescents: 5 Diamond, 9 Ruby, 12 Amethyst, 24 Sapphire, 13 Emerald, 16 Topaz, and 3 Quartz.

From the sheer amounts of activity in such a short span of time, it would be an honor to award him with an Amethyst Kukri to show how appreciated his efforts are.

Thank you for all you do Ood and I hope to see you steamroll through all of the activities as you do.

Just with Ood's Quaestor work this year, there is roots laid down. He entered Galeres, the House in something of a state fictionally and in reality, and took it up like he'd been here before and knew exactly the route to take. He has spent hours past his bedtime (much to our chargin) story working to bring Galeres into a fresh life, including the big decisions on what paths to follow and how to do them. He also has been pushing to run competitions as often as he can, currently running an event for the House where a great disaster has struck and the members of our militant house must act in disaster relief. He has run a total of 19 competitions just in this short time since his return and there is NO shortage of plans on the horizon. This also includes weekly checks of members to see and award people and a overall enthusiastically large push to breathe a breath of fresh air into Galeres in the chats and one on one with older members.

But, onto the numbers. Since January last year, Odd has participated in 158 competitions (28 Container), 13 of which during the GJW this year, and earned 64 placements, with two of them being a Silver and a Bronze nova. This is a HUGE percentage of competitions won and a momumental effort. His efforts also include 13 fiction activities, scoring 27 Clusters of Ice, while also collecting 13 clusters of graphite, 7 SA exams and 9 Society rank ups. All of this while performing duties as the Right hand of Justice!

Frankly the energy that Ood has for the club after all of these years is inspirational. I can't count all the rings on this tree, but in the last 3 months as Galeres' Quaestor he has been a boon for us all. Mostly. Sometimes we need him to pause because he gets ahead of us in his rush. Of all the problems to have however, this is probably the best kind.
