Primary reason

Edema R'uh-Kalinor, Jono to his friends, has a long history with the Brotherhood. He first joined at the end of 2002, 14 ½ years ago. Life got in the way, as life so often does, and he rejoined the Brotherhood - and Arcona - in February of 2016. As a Hunter, he was full of drive and vigor, pushing ideas and activity left and right. Within a month he had been raised to Knight. Then, a mere six months later, he joined the ranks of the Equite. Now, ten months later, his drive and vigor are unchanged. He remains full of new ideas, pushing his leadership to generate new content, and new ways for himself and his peers to enjoy the Brotherhood. It's a welcome and much-valued distinction. There isn't a fictional situation Jono sees that he doesn't try and improve, or add to, or expand on in some way. And he makes everyone around him better for his efforts.

His own personal activity is a testament to his drive and determination. Since his last promotion in September of 2016, Jono has organized 11 competitions and participated in 43. He has submitted 13 works of fiction which, combined with his RO posts, total 23,000 words. He has passed 10 courses in the Shadow Academy and gained 3 degrees. He has also been consistently active in reports and news posts, pushing forward the relevant discussions through his 26 comments.

During his time as a Mystic, he has garnered a number of laurels for himself. He has earned ten Crescents for competition placement, 30 Clusters of Fire, 121 Clusters of Earth, 8 Clusters of Graphite, and a truly impressive 43 Clusters of Ice. He has also earned three Scrolls of Foundation and a Seal of Loyalty. In addition to the above, his activity has been recognized in the form of both an Anteian Cross and a Steel Cross.

This has been a long time coming, longer than most. But there is no one who has earned it more.

For his continuous and ongoing contributions to his Clan, his unwavering zeal for the Brotherhood, and his unparalleled personal activity, it is my honor to recommend that Edema R'uh-Kalinor be elevated to Equite II.

Congratulations, Jono. Keep making us proud.

Additional reasons

Edema R'uh-Kalinor has shown tremendous initiative and set a wonderful example for the members around him. His level of activity in the last few months alone is impressive and sets the standard for not only those in his Battleteam, but throughout the entire clan.

In addition to the numerous competitions he has organized and participated in since his last promotion, as well as his progress in the Shadow Academy, Edema has been very active on Telegram and often provides a much needed perspective on how things are running. He was an invaluable resource to both Koliss Welcott and myself in establishing Battleteam Voidbreaker. Having been around long enough to see the attempted rise of Battleteam Styx, he provided an insider’s perspective about what works and what might not in attempting to gain and keep interest in the new team. His perspective and insight has, without a doubt, been a vital piece of the success Voidbreaker has seen and, hopefully, will continue to see.

Edema is an asset to whichever unit he is a part of and I wish him the best as he continues his journey through the ranks and the Brotherhood. Congratulations, Edema!

Edema R'uh-Kalinor has demonstrated a passion that is truly an inspiration for other members within the Clan. Since his last promotion, he has both organized and participated in multiple competitions, and has earned multiple Shadow Academy degrees.

In addition to his personal accomplishments, he has demonstrated remarkable leadership skills. Though he does not hold a leadership position within the Clan, he took it upon himself to develop a survey to poll members of the Clan about their individual interests regarding their taste in events. His survey received a remarkable amount of feedback with some illuminating results. He also regularly organizes competitions and is quite active within the Telegram community.

Thank you, Edema, for your dedication and commitment to excellence. I wish you nothing but the best as you continue your progress up the Equite ranks. Congratulations!
