Zuza has been chewing through the Journeyman ranks like a faeire drake, keeping us in leadership always on our toes! It has been delightful to observe such enthusiasm and dedication from a new member, though by how well she’s already made a home of us, it hardly feels correct to call her ‘new’ anymore!

In her short time as Journeyman, she’s accumulated a host of accolades, including a Dark Cross, seven Crescents, four Clusters of Ice and 16 Clusters of Graphite, for her participation in a total of 37 competitions. Zuza has also taken her first steps into leadership, at least in the academic sense, by completing a pair of courses on the subject and it would be no surprise if we saw her with a pair of massive epaulettes sometime in the future.

She’s really begun to expand her character via our Battleteam RPs over on Telegram, helping to further integrate to our unit and further detail this pint-sized Infiltrator who’s already begun infiltrating our hearts. As further proof of the detail and dedication that she’s put into making Zuza come to life, her Wiki page is in a far better state than mine was (or is), and it seems she’s really got a knack for adding intriguing detail, such as her Krayt tattoo and clothing preferences.

Zuza has been a true breath of fresh air into both House Qel-Droma and Battleteam Voidbreaker, her enthusiasm and skill, as well as easygoing attitwude a delight to encounter in our chats. She’s shown a great spirit for participation, most notably in our recent Clan event, and I can already tell she’s got the makings of greatness within her!

As Quaestor, it is my privilege to recommend the promotion of Zuza Lottson to JM4 and full “Knighthood”.

While Zuza Lottson has been training in real life to tackle lions, tigers, and snow leopards oh my, she has been eagerly chasing Krayt Dragons in the stars. Full of enthusiasm and energy, curiosity and excitement, Zuza has quickly taken to our star wars universe. She has latched into building collaborative roleplay sessions with fellow clanmates, participated in clan events with the tenacity of a jaguar, and fleshed out character building among her peers. She has drawn up a wiki, sharing her bubbly optimistic character, and eagerly participated in numerous competitions. She has even taken a few leadership courses!

It truly didn't take her long to worm her way into her battleteam and clan. One could even argue it was instantaneous. During my time working with Zuza, I have noted how openly friendly and welcoming she is. She's a delight to spend time with and talk to, raising the mood of those around her. Since her time in Arcona, she has helped host unofficial game nights, providing opportunities to laugh and bond with our peers. It wouldn't be an odd sight to see her hop onto the clan discord and share some of her time just conversing.

Zuza is a dedicated individual to both the fictional, administrative, and community sides of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood and of Arcona. She truly has added to our Ohana here. It is with great honor that I add my support for Zuza Lottson's promotion to Professional, JM4. I wish you luck on your journey among the stars, Zuza! Just...be careful riding that future Krayt Dragon steed!

Zuza’s energy and general presence has made taking on the role of Battleteam Leader a breeze. She is the exact kind of new member you hope and dream for, but rarely get. Friendly, communicative, but also serious about getting involved with the various aspects of the Brotherhood beyond simply going through the motions. She has not backed down from anything thrown in her path, parkours nimbly as a ninja squirrel over any challenges, and continues to show the drive, empathy, and generally good spirited energy that make Arcona, and by extension the Brotherhood, a better place to be a part of. She has demonstrated her desire to help others around her, and does not simply focus on herself, a rare trait that I’ve seen in some of the clubs historically impactful members.

We decided she could stay a while ago, but with this elevation, I think Zuza has planted her own feet and declared that she is here. As her BTL, I look forward to seeing her continue to grow and trailblaze her way forward to the ranks of the Equites, but as a fellow member, I’m simply delighted to have her as a part of our Clan. Congrats, Zuzu
