{snapshot}

September 13 2004, Alaric is Combat Master of the ACC, I am Senior Operator... and DA Corran Halcyon "Halc" Arconae is hired as Alaric's Praetor. Halc needs no intoduction, most are aware of his history in the DB. He clearly takes what is given to him and, despite the CM's frequent absences, Halc remains dedicated and the "picture" of loyalty. Fast forward...

{>>}

January 29 2004, I come on as CM and face the first wave of staff 'adjustments', starting with the P:CM, Halcyon. I ask him straight out if he "wants' to stay on... he says "yes" and we're off!

Pages and pages of ACC Compendium sift through our fingers on the first grand-scope overhaul since Cyris was CM. Halcyon is key to my sanity, proof reading most of the major changes and even free-handing an ENTIRE pilot's den compendium, complete with a craft database nad 'flight terms for dummies'. Being the "true" Krath that I am, there was no way I could've pulled that off. We move through the CS's, hundreds of them, until the release of EP 3... holy crap! Judge stat numbers skyrocket and even as P:CM, Halcyon takes a HUGE brunt of the workload off my shoulders (mind you, he is STILL a pivotal part of Arcona's official body). His stats jump into the thousands with training battles, qualification battles, character sheets and battle judgements... it was quite an insane time. The ACC MVP award (StA) is instituted on a monthy basis for the ACC staff, Halc takes it 4 times (at the writing of this information) - being noted as the ACC's most active staff member - Yes, he's still a major player in Arcona as well. Riddled with Clan duties, rebirth items and remaining active in his own right, Halcyon STILL maintains the highest caliber of performance on the ACC staff.

{stop}

Just a brief glimpse at his time to present on the ACc staff. He has become someone I can truly count on when there's no one else. My job (no matter how much I'd like it to be :P) could EVER be a one person job if it's to be done right, and I am happy - rather - estatic to have someone like Halcyon in my corner. We disagree very little as far as ACC operations go, so there is virtually nothing I need to guess with him about. He respects my position and the pains that come with it, and he backs me publically - though he may have a different opinion - which is the true sign of someone who has loyalty, honor and dedication to the whole. He has gone for a long time on the ACC staff without significant recognition. Sure, he takes the MVP quite often, but I hardly think that is enough.

Awards like the Emerald Dagger [ED] cater to those who "...over a substantial period of time, contributed to the growth and functionality of their Order or the Brotherhood..." which, in his capacity as Praetor to the Combat Master, he has easily fulfilled ten fold. From GJW's to RoS's to Vendettas to Clan or House competitions, the ACC provides the Brotherhood with a platform unlike anything else in the club. Prateors like Halcyon, and in fact Halcyon himself, ensure that the essence of the ACC remains focused on the Brotherhood by their dedication and skill.

We throw words like 'dedication' around a lot, especially in awards packages, but it has a clear meaning in the ACC. Dedication is writing through a battle with an Initiate, knowing-from the first post-that they are not going to be qualified, but finishing it because it's the right thing to do. Dedication is doing your damndest to 'explain' to an Initiate what they are doing wrong, in the training battle, in a way that they can understand. Dedication is reading through a 900-word per post battle of complete SH*T and trying to pick a winner when the battle should just be deleted. Dedication is sitting on IRC for 3 or 4 straight hours "just in case" an ACCLive! match needs a judge. Dedication is giving clear and honest answers to the same questions that are asked every week. Dedication is attempting to explain to an ACO why they can't have Form VII or dual lightsabres on their Character Sheet, or why they can't use Force Lightning in a battle. Finally, Dedication is TELLING the CM when he's not going the right way with a policy, when he seems to be losing focus and when he's being a prick - THAT'S Dedication - Halcyon IS dedication!

Hail, Grand Master and Deputy of the Brotherhood.

I am Denath Ciarus, though am better known as D'hak. I have served under Halcyon as a Quaestor for quite a few months now, and I feel I should recommend a medal of worth for my Consul, Halcyon. I had planned on doing this at the end of the month, but with the recent news of his resignation I shall do this now.

I wish to nominate my Consul for an Amethyst Kukri or a Sapphire Blade.

Halcyon was appointed Consul in April, following the disappearance of Lan. He brought constant energy and enthusiasm into the Clan Summit, which is something that all previous Summits of the past year have lacked. He has dilligently attended to his duties, constantly striving towards the betterment of Arcona. He has made many decisions and provided support in every front that I have seen and heard of in recent times, and he is always there to help out the Clan.

He is the first Consul to take an active interest in restoring the history of our Clan, and save for a few minor corrections I should send he has achieved this. He has served on the Clan and House Summit levels more times than anyone, and has always carried this energy and commitment to each position. Such devotion and energy is almost unequalled. I have served under every Consul, and only Nighthawk and Mejas have devoted more of themselves to the Clan.

Halcyon has a very impressive and very long history of being a quality member. He has constantly performed excellently in everything he can get his games into. Most memorable was one of the last GJWs before the Split, when he dusted off TIE Fighter (by then, a defunct platform) and not only kicked major ass for the Clan, but even inspired other Sith pilots to do the same. He has served Arcona for many years without pause or failure, and is without doubt our greatest Sith warrior.

Halcyon is also the Clan Envoy of Arcona and the Praetor to the Combat Master, and to the best of my knowledge he has also performed tremendously in these areas - quite an achievement considering how much he devotes himself to my Clan. However, I ask that you speak with Anshar and Dalthid concerning these positions, as they are the ones who would know best.

I thank you both for your time. My field of expertise is Clan Arconan history, so if there is anything else you need to clarify, wish to know, or need done in Arcona please let me know and I will do what I can to help.

Epis Denath Ciarus Quaestor of Qel-Droma di Tenebrous Arconae

There's not much I can say outside those two recommendations. Halcyon is an outstanding member, and I applaud his every effort to advance the interests of this club. He and I have worked together for a long time, and I have always been impressed.

Congratulations, Halcyon, and thanks.
