Many of our number have all been there. When you are young, fresh-eyed, bushy-tailed and the opportunities seem absolutely endless. Then, that day arrived. when you had completed your tasks, you had slogged through your trials, and finally you arrived.

Since joining the Brotherhood, Hilgrif has been an absolute star. He has taken to gaming with reckless abandon, has attempted to tackle fiction writing, Wiki work, and has even made himself available to leadership for projects. He has set up goals, and continues to work toward them. Rather than to satisfy himself with reaching the necessary ranks for the GMRG necessary for promotion, Hilgrif has set the goal of Rank X by quarter's end.

There are all the normal requirements needed to get as far as he has. This young Verpine has torn through those, and by all appearances he can only go up from here. Over the last 42 days (which bypassed the required 28 days) in the rank of Journeyman 3, he has kept fighting forward.

Hilgrif has competed hard, having won 15 competitions and the accompanying accolades. More than that, he has taken part in 53 competitions. He has even organized a quick, fun comp on a Clan level to spread the fun to his fellow Sadowans. As mentioned above, he has been gaming hard. He has earned a mad respectable number of Clusters, equitable to 1342 Clusters of Earth since joining the Brotherhood.

With that, he has also worked on gathering together 8 Pendants of Blood, enough that he has reached not only rank IV in the GMRG, but Rank VIII! While his strength lies in gaming, he has not been happy to merely settle into his most natural area of strength. He has also worked with myself and others to try to strengthen his story-telling and writing abilitiies.

To this end, he has written over 1500 words of fiction- introducing his character to the Brotherhood- and has even built up his Wiki page to meet up with the basic standards for a quality Wiki page. Though, this last one was in addition to the required marks to attain the rank of JM4.

He has created an interesting, unique character and has tried to dive into Clan Naga Sadow and the larger Brotherhood. I hope that he embraces this new step in his journey as he steps up to join his peers. I can speak up confidently, as I lift up Hilgrif to join the ranks of Knights within CNS and the Brotherhood.

Congratulations on achieving Knight, Hilgrif, and I hope to see you achieve greater heights. Drinks are on you tonight!
