Ethan the man with the perfect narrator voice helping his team earn a 3rd place finish in the GJW "In a World" competition and securing a Bronze Nova in the process. This man had insane levels of activity in the GJW where he was 1 of 8 members of Odan-Urr to participate in all the bins as a JM4 which helped his Clan secure the points needed in participation towards our victory. Now even those this man loves to participate in competitions, he has stepped out and started dabbling in producing his own competitions. Since the GJW instead of taking it easy and winding down, he has organized31 DJB-wide competition, of which 2 were Clan-wide competitions in addition to also participating in 40 competitions. The man is also a fiction master where he spent many hours proofing our teams RO posts, he also earned 23 Clusters of Ice through his own fiction writing from various Voice competitions. In addition to all this he has earned 1 Bronze Nova, 1 Crescent with Amethyst Star, 6 Crescent with Sapphire Star, 6 Crescent with Topaz Star, 1 Cluster of Fire, 12 Cluster of Graphite, and even was passed 1 Shadow Academy course. Crossing from consumer to producer is a big step in ones DJB career. Ethan your activity both in and out of the GJW was incredible, but more importantly your desire to always look to help your fellow Housemate and further our Clan speaks volumes to your character. Keep up the great work brother!

Ethan, I have known you for a while now and I have to say I am impressed. Watching you and your character grow has been awesome. Your performance in the Great Jedi War just goes to show how far you have come, 100% completion in the War is no small feat. Your application for BTL application was very good and it shows dedication to the House, Clan, and the Brotherhood. I look forward to watching you grow further as we all continue forward. Keep up the good work my friend and congratulations on the award. It's all up hill from here!

Ethan is a stellar performer within Satele Shan and is truly in the process of a meteoric rise in professionalism and personal growth as befitting this important promotion from Knight to Equite.

Specifically I will speak to Ethan’s work within his Battleteam. Ethan simply is a leader and a beacon to look up to. While he did not get the role of BTL, he has supported the team throughout. This includes 100% participation in both the Basic Flight Training event and the Operation Enigma event. In the latter he placed within the top three overall. Beyond that, he is constantly active in team emails and TG discussions, offering his opinions and advice to other members to enrich the community.

While Ethan’s metrics are impressive and have been expanded upon greatly by my peers some items that stick out in my mind. Ethan is now at the point where he is transitioning from consumer to producer of content, and has organized several fictional competitions. Along that track, he has written over 10,000 words of fiction since his last promotion. That is more than some members produce in a career but this is just a mild side note for him.

I have no doubt Ethan is prepared to make the transition to Equite and the greater roles and responsibilities that the community requires him to and will be enriched by.

Ethan Martes, is by far one of the most interesting new members I have seen join Odan-Urr in quite sometime. Not only is he a constant contributor on the clan telegram channels he is also a great mentor to other members as well. He has a passion not only for his character but more for how his character exists in the DJB universe and how he would interact with everyones IC personas. He also has great vision and creates excellent stories and fictions for us to enjoy. Ethan is also a budding leader within the club and someone I see taking on and excelling at a position in the DJB at some point. I was also witness to his creativity on our Voice acting team for the Great Jedi War, being the team lead allow him to flex his muscles and help us earn a 3rd place finish in the event as well. So it's my pleasure and my Honor to support your award which is very much deserved and earned! Congratulations, Ethan!
