Since his last recognition (a Steel Cross in February of 2020), Zentru'la has participated in 83 competitions, earning 1 Crescent with Diamond Star, 4 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 9 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 3 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 2 Crescents with Emerald Stars, and 1 Crescent with Topaz Star. In particular, Zentru'la made very strong contributions to Taldryan in the past two Vendettas. In GJW XIV in 2020, he earned 2 Gold Novae, and 1 Silver Nova as part of the Taldryan run-on team. In RoS: Escalation, he earned a Gold Nova and two Silver Novae, and participated in every bin.

To get a general overview of Zentru'la's activity over the past eighteen months: In gaming, he's completed 2 PVP activities, earning 3 Clusters of Fire. In writing, he's submitted 35940 words of fiction and 1648 words of run-on posts, for a total of 91 Clusters of Ice. In graphics, he's earned 67 Clusters of Graphite for his competition entries. In the SHadow Academy, he's completed 34 courses, earning 13 degrees.

Zentru'la has also made his presence felt on the leadership front. He took over the Tavros BTL position from Bale last year, and served for a total of 5 months before the Clan Summit dissolved the BT. He's run three competitions open to all DB members. He's also been an active force in the Taldryan Story Group, regularly participating in discussions about the development of Taldryan's fictional lore and plotlines. Most notably, he's taken the "Vornskr Battalion" auxiliary division and run with it (including creating its Wiki page and featuring it regularly in his fiction), making it the most prominent of Taldryan's fictional divisions.

For his ongoing contributions to Taldryan and the Brotherhood as a whole, I hereby nominate Zentru'la for the Sapphire Blade. Congratulations!
