I honestly don’t know what else to say about Montresor that hasn’t been said 100 times over. His work ethic is second to none as can be seen throughout his time in the DJB, and the past year is no exception. Despite a busy life outside the club that is demanding he served admirably as the Rollmaster to Clan Vizsla by helping in the planning and running of clan events. Montresor was an asset in proofing not just members entries to competitions but in teaching members how to use best practices in designing and running competitions themselves. He reviewed every competition that was ran and offered up ways to write them up and run them more efficiently and to a higher standard. Reports were likewise reviewed and feedback given to improve the quality. As the role of rollmaster has changed Montresor found ways to keep the position relevant and important to the Clan.

His quantifiable participation is a total of 26 competitions entered with over 2000 words of fiction combined between Run-Ons and fiction entries. He tallied 16 Shadow Academy courses and earned two degrees. He also placed 1st in the last Clan Vizsla Great Hunt. That is the stuff you can measure.

Montresor however is being recommended for the things you can’t measure. His advice and counsel to the Vizsla summit have been especially valuable, particularly as the tumultuous events unfolded in Clan Vizsla just before the Rites of Supremecy. As a new Proconsul, without a Consul, he provided me with instruction on how to work the various systems and tools on the website many of which I didn't even know existed. Instead of having to learn the hard way, his instruction gave me a leg up and helped keep my head above water. He continued to provide me with clear direction in what my role as Proconsul was and what and where I should focus my efforts, and offering his experience as someone I could reach out to with questions and concerns. After my appointment to Consul he continued in assisting me, helping make sure that I was prepared for my role as Consul once again showing me the ropes as it were. For this, I am extremely thankful. I award you this medal as a small token of not just my thanks but as thanks for your service to Clan Vizsla.
