Some say to be awarded a Grand Cross is to complete the collection of crosses attainable in the brotherhood. This is why today it is my honour and privilege to be able to award Celahir Erinos his first Grand Cross of the Dark Side. He has proven his worth to me, his house and Arcona.<br> As a leader in Clan Arcona, Celahir always excels and strives to achieve the best. He is currently the reigning Quaestor of House Qel-Droma for nearly 4 months now. He has been active and supportive of his leaders and members, always making sure he places them above himself in every situation. He also is reliable posting reports on a regular basis and is always able to answer emails quickly and efficiently. I also found that as one of his Battle Team Leaders he is confident and reliable answering questions and striving for perfection. Cel has supported me throughout my current time as the leader of Wolf Guard. <br> Since joining Arcona, I noticed that members have been looking up to Cel and try to be as active as he is (such as by participating in the RoS in multiple events as well as helping to run and focus the direction of his house in this event). He has been inspirational and it is only right that he deserves such a prestigious award for his work towards the Clan’s overall placing. He mentors the younger members when they need help, and is able to continue to run competitions to keep both old and new members active and working hard. I am proud to have a Quaestor like Cel. <br>

All in all, Celahir has earned this medal with sheer activity, leadership and his desire to mentor those around him. Good work Celahir<br> Cethgus Kuga, BTL, Wolf Guard<br><br> I’d just like to throw in my two cents as I’ve spent the last three months as Celahir’s Aedile in House Qel Droma.I believe Celahir is deserving of this prestigious award. His efforts at leading HQD and supervising the Battleteams has been superb, as well as easily adapting to his role and meshing well with myself. Celahir’s methods were completely different from his predecessor, yet he worked hard and achieved results. Having lead Soulfire to their victory in the Third Great Hunt, to becoming Quaestor over myself due to my unfortunate problems in RL, Celahir was worked tirelessly to prove himself. He has earned not only the respect of myself, but the respect of everyone in the Clan. I am proud to have worked with Celahir in HQD and can only wish him the best of luck with his new Aedile. I’m sure the other recs will give a lot more reasons why Celahir deserves this award, so I’ll stop twaddling on. Congrats Irfan, you deserve it.<br> Sanguinius Tsucyra, Quaestor of House Galeres.<br><br> Since Celahir's appointment to the position of Quaestor of House Qel-Droma he has done everything in his power to assist and encourage his Battleteam Leaders and be a strong leader and example to the entire House. Cel's laid back manner and easy-going style of leadership has made serving in HQD a fun and enjoyable experience, but he has also made sure that his leaders and members know that excellence is important for this Arconan House.<br>

During the Rite of Supremacy, Celahir was a great leader both by example and encouragement. Because of his duties both as a Quaestor and his work in the latest RoS, I believe that Cel fully deserves to be recognized by receiving a Grand Cross. Congratulations, Cel, and keep up the good work.<br> Driftan Housan, Aedile, House Qel-Droma <br><br>

As a subordinate and friend, Cel has been nothing but supportive of me. He is always challenging me to become better and makes sure that If i need help or have a question, I get it answered or he gives me the help I need. He has been a solid, consistent figure in my time here, and I know that I can always count on him if I fall into a hole. He is a great role model and an excellent leader with a lot of potential for greatness. He leads by example and never gets down on himself or anyone else for that matter. Optimism is contagious.<br>

He deserves a GC more than anyone else I can hink of.<br> Marick, BTL, Oblivion Brigade <br><br>

I want in on this recc too =P. Celahir is a bloody star. I took a chance on him, by giving him BTL of Soulfire when he started getting really active, and I can only say I’ve never once looked back. He’s earned the respect of his House, earned the friendship of the summit and easily slotted into next-in-line for Proconsul without even a blink – the only thing holding him back is simple time-in-position. He’s taken to the various duties of office like a duck to water, and I’ve yet to find an area he isn’t willing to at least try his hand it. He’s experimented with gaming, writing, graphics in the myriad of Competitions that have come his way since joining Arcona and proved fairly proficient at them all, yet his true talent lies in his leadership. He’s charismatic, easy-going, laid back, but he gets his point of view across and motivates his members and summit excellently. As a Consular aide, he’s often my port of call and no task is too menial if it helps me out and gets Arcona’s work done. I eagerly look forward to the future in Arcona with Celahir at the helm. Well done, bro.<br> Sashar Arconae<br><br>
