Having a member like Kanal on my summit has been a serious boon to Clan Vizsla. A never-ending supply of ideas and energy he attacked Quaestor like a pack of wolves on a cat. Better than just ideas he has not just the ability but also the desire to see those ideas come to fruition. Normally I wouldn’t add something ongoing but his Great Hunt idea has already become the standard by which all others will be weighed, and possibly be found lacking. Engagement with not just his house but the rest of the Clan and the Brotherhood is outstanding as well. His advice and opinions are greatly valued in the decisions I make for Vizsla.

Since his last Promotion, Kanal has participated in 177 competitions, submitted 4362 words of fiction, and another 2970 in run-ons. He has earned two Steel Crosses and two Anteian Crosses, as well as 2 Novae. A slew (38) of Crescents not to mention nearly 1000 various Clusters. He shows up at the biggest events as well with over 50 seals in vendettas and a seal of loyalty.

Kanal is a prime example of an active and engaged leader. He cares about his members and strives to provide them with content and rewards. His mentoring of Brimstone as his Aedile has been a nice spark to the development of future leaders. I lucked into a fantastic Quaestor. But Kanal being one is no luck. He works hard to ensure his own success. That success is transposed onto the clan as a whole with all of us striving to match his enthusiasm, skill and desire.

Congratulations Kanal. You earned this with perseverance, patience, and a lot of damn fine work.
