Crossing from Journeyman to Equite is a major milestone in a member’s career. It signifies the passage from rank and file to pillar of the community. Kooki embodies a level of dedication and selflessness beyond a Journeyman and she is without question a central pillar of our community. These are facts. Kooki is already an “equal” in all but name. Today it is time to make it official, Kookimarissia Mimosa-Inahj is an Equite.

Kooki’s record since Knighthood is impressive, she has never waived in her dedication to her clan and the Brotherhood, she can always be found leading from the front lines giving her full effort to any event and offering encouragement to her comrades. Since her last promotion Kooki has accumulated: a Steel Cross, a Antetian Cross, a Dark Cross, a Gold Nova, Twenty Four Crescents, Eighty Seven Clusters of Fire and Twenty Clusters of Ice. Additional she gave strong strong showings in Operation: Sojourn, Fading Light: Bosthidra, Operation: Figureheads and an exceptional showing in Fading Light: Nicht Ka with a gold nova and five out of five events.

Beyond her impressive dossier is the presence and impact of a member that is near and dear to the heart of Arcona. A presence which, was readily apparent to even a newer Arconan like myself. It is my distinct honor to endorse her promotion to Krath Priestess.

Congratulations Kooki! Welcome to the ranks of the Equites! This has been long overdue.

Kookimarissia Mimosa-Inahj has been, for nearly the past year, an exceptional example of what our Journeymen should be. The Knight has been picking up awards left, right and center despite having a very busy real life schedule and raising her first child. I first met Kooki when I became XO of Dark Forge over in Galeres and, even then, she was a stalwart of activity.

Due to her husband becoming the Sergeant of Soulfire Strike Team, Kooki had to move somewhere. I quickly pounced on the opportunity to have such a person in my Battleteam. I mean, who wouldn’t? She’s eager to participate where she can, puts in 110% in everything she does and is always willing to lend a hand. Kooki is a very common presence throughout IRC, especially during the late-night hours. In the recent Vendetta, the third installment of Fading Light, Kooki put in full participation, which is no mean feat. There were many who didn’t achieve this, despite having three weeks to do so. Her graphics alone were exceptional and the hours she put into the entry are clearly visible. And that’s not even going into the puzzle which made no sense to me whatsoever. But she figured it out and won a Gold Nova out of it!

It wasn’t until after we recommended her to receive a Steel Cross that we realized just how long Kooki had been a Dark Jedi Knight. We then decided to put off this request until the completion of Fading Light III, and did it ever pay off. For her efforts and distinguished service, I hereby recommend Kookimarissia Mimosa-Inahj be promoted to the rank of Equite I.

Congratulations, Kooki! You’ve shown you deserve this. Welcome to the Equites! :)

A lot of people will overlook Kooki as the tired, but always enthusiastic member who comes on at odd hours of the night when she is able to take a short break from being a full-time mommy. They forget that despite that, she is still one of the most active members of Clan Arcona on a day-to-day basis. She is always competing in competitions that pop up, and has maintained a consistent drive and dedication to Arcona over the course of the past year since making DJK. It has been a slower path than some, and while she hasn’t tackled any leadership roles, her smile and enthusiasm are contagious and her energy keeps others around her motivated and driving. She’s slowly gathered up her escalades of awards based on her performance in Arcona Operations, and everytime I see an entry from her I smile. It’s hard to believe it’s almost been a year, but time flies when you’re having fun. And Kooki is all about fun, and sharing it with others.

So, congratulations, Kooki, on yet another promotion. Your path is different than most, but it’s yours and you rock it like no one else can. Keep up the great work ;).

Kooki is a breath of fresh air in the Brotherhood, and particularly in Arcona. She’s not the traditional member, and with as much time as she spends taking care of her son (at all hours of the day!), it’s a wonder she’s able to contribute so significantly to Arcona. And yet, she does.

She’s always a cheerful presence on IRC, ducking in when she can to check in and chat with friends. She makes the most of all that Arcona has to offer when we’re not swept up in a vendetta, and when we are, she becomes fiercely competitive. Recently, she earned a Gold Nova in FL3. Wow. If someone had told me when Kooki first joined that this doting, compassionate young mother would be taking one of the club’s top prizes in a vendetta, I would have had a hard time believing it.

But now, it’s so seemingly mundane as to pass beneath the radar. Nobody’s surprised, it’s just the way Kooki rolls. She’s an invaluable member of our team for so many reasons, and she’s awesome to have around. Her unbroken, unceasing activity and devotion to Arcona are more than enough to earn her this promotion to the Equite ranks.

Congratulations, Amy. I could not be more proud!

There’s few things that make you more emotional than seeing people you care for grow up, especially those you look over. I’ll be choking back tears by the end of this. But this isn’t about me--it’s about the amazing young woman I had the privilege to mentor.

Amy is an incredible person. She is kind, dedicated, and heartfelt. She treats everyone around her with the same friendliness and care, almost like a mother figure--small surprise, that, considering she manages to be such an active member despite raising her darling fifteen-month old, seemingly at all hours, most of them late at night. By some stretch of inhuman stamina and determination, the tribulations in most of her life never keep her from this small piece of it: the Brotherhood, her Clan, her friends. She’s always online being cheery, she’s always active and giving people a run for their money, she’s always out there trying and winning...to put it plainly, Amy is one of the most devoted people I’ve ever known, not just as a member but also as a mother, and she is an irreplaceable treasure to this organization.

My rambles will only turn into sugar and gumdrops if I go on, so let me conclude shortly with this: Amy, I am so proud to have had you for a student. It is a great gift and honor, and I’m so happy to see you join us in the Equites. Congratulations! You’ve earned it!

Master of this awesome lady

Kooki only joined Qel-Droma recently, but has quickly integrated into the House and made her presence felt. She’s been a powerhouse, active and always enthusiastic. It seems every day I have an email about her entering a competition. Kooki isn't simply a body in participation numbers, either. She's managed to rack up an impressive run of awards, most recently a Gold Nova after completing all events in Fading Light 3, no small feat. She has always been one of the most active members in every event run by the Clan as well, placing very highly in the joint Operation: Figureheads event. All in all, Kooki is an active, competent, and approachable person, a shining light in Arcona.

Even though she was in Galeres for the majority of her time in Arcona, she has been an exemplar of our 'One Clan' philosophy. She's been a presence on IRC whenever she can grab time away from being a full time parent, forging relationships with other members to become a friend to all. Kooki is truly a member of Arcona with an impact that can't be ignored.

Congratulations, Kooki. You deserve it.

Returning from the Rogues- Sorry I haven't been around for a while my life has been pretty hectic recently, but hopefully I can try to get back into the swing of things round here :)
