Following the Conclave of the Inner Circle of Clan Naga Sadow for the month of January 2006 the Black Guard, Inner Order, Sons of Sadow and Clan Summit wish to recognise the work of Manesh Sadow with the Grand Cross of the Dark Side.

Since resuming full activity Manesh has become one of the most active, if not the most active, members in the Clan. In spite of not having much left to get in his current rank and station he has become something of a leader without being in a leadership position. Manesh leads by example, setting the level for people to strive for, working toward seeing the Clan excel on almost a daily basis, be it in the ICTE or the GMRG Crucibles.

Here is a selection of the recommendations:

I would like to take the time to point out a stellar member of House Ludo Kressh. Manesh has been with us a very long time, much longer than I have been here in fact. However, since I have been a Leader of any kind in this House he has been an inspiration. Manesh has consistently served his House and Clan well and admirably for years. In the last months, I have seen an impressive amount of activity from him in many areas. He has helped lead us to participate in the ICTE's and every competition that has come along. He has passed an enormous number of SA courses recently, another indicator. Manesh is always about on IRC to help anyone who asks. He has been compiling the History of House Marka Ragnos, something that needed to be done desperately. There is much more, too much to even begin to type out. I feel he is worthy of a Grand Cross as his Quaestor. ~ SW Macron Goura Quaestor of Ludo Kressh

Manesh is an asset to Naga Sadow and the DB in many different ways. Not only has he been a visible presence online and in the email lists, he has been extremely active in almost every ICTE and Sunday tourney in the last several months. He is always out there, encouraging people to play JA/JO. Its not just his participation, but his positive attitude which earns him this medal. Manesh is working on compiling and creating the gaps of the history of Marka Ragnos so that we have a solid piece of history for our group. This important piece of work will be just another small piece of the things that this member has given to this club, without any request for recognition. This is just one small way we can thank him, but it is really not enough. Congratulations on your award, Manesh. We really appreciate your dedication to this group. ~ KP Kat Pridemore Aedile of Marka Ragnos

Manesh Sadow, one of the most constant and stalwart fixtures of our Clan, has done so much for the activty of Naga Sadow. His return from retirement as one of the most long-standing Quaestorhoods has been a triumph. And he has taken many with him on his travels and rallies to competitions. His is a prime example of an older member encouraging the younger ones... by leading from the front, by getting dirty with them. Manesh has devastated numerous ICTE events, Sunday competitions, and too many other competitions to count. His ability to lead without a leadership position is so very crucial to Naga Sadow, and it is for these successes that I support the reccomendation for his Award. Congratulations, Manesh. ~ KPN Muz Sadow Herald, former Proconsul

On behalf of the Inner Circle I extend our congratulations.

~ Consul Xanos Sadow & Inner Circle
