Event History

I am delighted to be able to recommend Hector Von Ricmore for an Amethyst Kukri today, recognizing an exceptional period of sustained, high-impact activity. Since his last award, 16 months ago, Hector has amassed the 11533 MXP for this award by participating in 118 competitions. His achievements in these events are reflected in a strong record of placements, earning 3 Crescents with Diamond Star, 1 with Ruby Star, 9 with Amethyst Star, 6 with Sapphire Star, 7 with Emerald Star, 5 with Topaz Star, and 2 with Quartz star demonstrating consistent high performance across a wide competitive field.

Hector's gaming activity continues to be one of his defining strengths, with 170 gaming activities and 2431 Clusters of Fire earned. However, Hector is a very well-rounded member with 3 ACC Battles finished along with 4902 words, as well as 23 fiction-related activities, earning 66 clusters of ice across 3 fictions, 8 RP sessions as a participant, and 8 RP sessions as a host. Hector has also earned himself 26 Clusters of graphite and 7 society level ups. Finally, it should be noted that Hector's efforts have earned 671,120 credits for Vizsla during this time.

Hector’s record reflects dedication and consistent engagement across our community and that benefits both his Clan and the wider Club as a whole. His accomplishments clearly merit recognition at this level, and I am pleased to recommend him for the Amethyst Kukri.

It is my pleasure to recommend Kalen Joss for an Amethyst Kukri, recognizing an exceptional period of sustained, high-impact activity.

His achievements in these events are reflected in a strong record of placements, earning 3 Crescents with Diamond Star, 4 with Ruby Star, 9 with Amethyst Star, 11 with Sapphire Star, and 5 with Emerald Star, demonstrating consistent high performance across a wide competitive field.

Since earning his last medal, Teebu has participated in 42 competitions, earning himself 1 Nova (Gold) and 11 Crescents (1 Diamond, 2 Amethyst, 2 Sapphire, 4 Emerald, & 2 Topaz). Additionally he has acquired 14 Clusters of Fire and 60 Clusters of Graphite. He has written 1.612 words of fiction and a further 4.962 words across 3 Roleplaying sessions. This has earned him 20 Clusters of Ice and a rank advancement in the Envoy Corps (participant). He has also passed a Shadow Academy course.

Teebu has also been an invaluable resource for the Clan. As a member of the Taldryan Story Group, he contributed to the War Arc. This in planning out and preparing to set up a third faction that would stand inbetween the Imperial Traditionalists and the Republican Loyalists as a form of Rebel Alliance of the sort. This merged into incorporating the new planet that was being planned into the upcoming civil war as well. Once the decision was made to step away from this internal strife theme, Teebu was integral in executing the cancellation of the War Arc and tying up the loose ends and plotpoints into a neat and clean conclusion that will not leave awkward issues behind but instead offers options to return to parts of the planned story without needing the entire setup to remain in place. Ontop of this, he was invaluable in the start of the replacement arc around discovery, consolidation and the overall Golden Age of the Republic. Teebu took charge of the team that created the the planet Interitus Cairn and its capital city of Thanadris. He set up the documents to present to Bubtra & Thran in order to get the planet approved and managed nearly all aspects of its development. Teebu took exceptional care to ensure we ended up with a viable and truly exceptional result. His work in creating the map of the planet, naming the planet was invaluable but the truly exceptional work was in the minute care he took in setting up the planetary biosphere and its diverse, yet seamlessly interconnected biomes, regions, and climates. Additionally he made sure the wiki work needed to document Interitus Cairn was ready to go live the moment the planet was added to the dominion. Aside from this, he’s also done maintenance work on a large number of other wiki pages in order to ensure they remain up to date. On top of all of this, he has also been providing the summit with advice and consultations on various topics whenever called upon, such as helping with getting Magistrates onboarded, assisting in getting Wade situated as PCON, and being always prepared to be consulted on upcoming events and competitions.

He has also been an integral part of the Clan’s day to day life via his near constant presence on Discord and his willingness to always assist whomever needs anything.

While doing all of this, he’s also been a member of the Regent Staff but I’ll let Thran document his efforts there in his contributing recommendation.

Teebu, I am proud to award you the Amethyst Kukri for your efforts and your truly exceptionally dedicated service to Taldryan. Congratulations, you’ve more than earned this!

Since earning his last medal, Wade has organized 2 competitions, co-organised a further 5, and participated in another 122. This earned him 44 Crescents (4 Diamond, 8 Ruby, 12 Amethyst, 14 Sapphire, 3 Topaz, & 3 Quartz). He also acquired 41 Clusters of Fire and 262 Clusters of Graphite. He wrote 4.573 words during the course of 3 ACC battles, advancing his rank in the Antei Combat Center (participant) society once. He wrote 6.797 words of fiction, a further 3.487 words across 2 Roleplaying Sessions, and another 2.634 words DMing another Roleplaying Session. This earned him 45 Clusters of Ice and a rank advancement in both the Envoy Corps (Participant) society as the Envoy Corps (Organiser) society. He also advanced his rank in the GMRG. He passed 3 Shadow Academy courses.

While doing this, Wade has been dedicated to improving the Taldryan Experience for its members as both M:CON and now P:CON. From his work in the planetary development (see last medal award for more details), to his work on helping develop, refine, and improve the overall Clan storyline, Narman is always ready to do the work to make the Clan a better, more fun place to be a member of. This is further documented by his work in setting up, managing, and/or improving the clan events that ran in the last few months, those that are currently running, and those that are being planned for the future.

Ontop of this, he is one of the pillars of the Taldryan Social Scene on Discord, and a major contributor to the overall experience of being a part of the Clan that our members experience on a daily basis.

Wade, I am proud to award you the Amethyst Kukri for your efforts and your truly dedicated service to Taldryan. Congratulations, you’ve more than earned this!

Since earning his last medal, Zen has participated in 38 competitions, earning himself 7 Crescents (2 Diamond, 3 Amethyst, 2 Emerald) as well as 30 Clusters of Graphite and a Seal of Loyalty. In the Shadow Academy, as a professor, he has graded 48 exams and earned himself 11 Scrolls of Foundation. He has written 10.916 words of fiction and another 198 words in a Roleplaying session, for this he was awarded 22 Clusters of Ice. He was also promoted during this time.

Zentru’la has also been an invaluable resource for the Clan. As a member of the Taldryan Story Group, he contributed to the War Arc as well as its cancellation and replacement. He also stepped up to contribute to the overall work towards creating Interitus Cairn and its capital city of Thanadris. He was instrumental during the planetary creation project by placing several hooks in both the planetary setup (biomes, climate), the culture (local population, how they'd interact with the Taldryan Republic, and more), and the planetary history (the cataclysmic event, some jedi ruins and more) that will be highly useful towards incorporation into future storylines and events, ensuring that the new planet will have an integral part to play in Taldryan’s future instead of just becoming a venue we sometimes return to.

Outside of this work, he has continued to be a pillar of the Clan’s social scene and a valuable resource for both the Headmaster and Voice, on whom’s Staffs he also resides.

Zen, I am proud to award you the Amethyst Kukri for your efforts and your dedicated service to Taldryan. Congratulations, you’ve earned this!

It is a delight to be able to make this recommendation today. The Amethyst Kukri is an award that is bestowed upon those who have shown their dedication and focus on furthering one aspect of the Brotherhood far beyond what was expected of them. Kora has more than earned this recognition through her consistent contributions to our community, her steady presence in our club, and the energy she’s brought to Vizsla across so many different avenues of activity.

Since her last sacramental award, only 2 and a half months ago, Kora has grown her contributions to the club and in turn, Vizsla. Truly it is astounding to me to see such a meteoric rise. In that time, Kora has reached the required 11533 Medal XP to earn her first Amethyst Kukri. She’s done this by participating in an impressive 127 competitions. Out of those, she’s earned 61 placement awards, meaning she placed in about 47% of the competitions she entered. Those placements include 1 Gold Nova and 60 Crescents: 12 Diamond, 14 Ruby, 16 Amethyst, 9 Sapphire, 3 Emerald, 5 Topaz, and 1 Quartz. That level of consistent success across events shows Kora is focused on more than just participation but quality work as well.

Beyond those service recognitions, Kora has earned a wide spread of activity awards that reflect her consistency and involvement: 751 Clusters of Fire, 3 Clusters of Ice, 122 Cluster of Graphite, and 1 Scrolls of Foundation.In addition to competition entries, Kora has been just as dedicated across all realms of activity. In gaming, she logged over 101 activities. In fiction, she’s completed 2 fiction activities with 1376 words. She’s advanced across 11 different society rank-ups, including 1 with the Inquisitorius, 3 with Shroud Syndicate, and 7 with the GMRG. That breadth of engagement makes her a well-rounded and reliable member, one we can always count on no matter the arena.

In short, Kora exemplifies the qualities we look for as a member of our community: she is active, very dependable, a positive presence in our community. She’s shown that time and again she’s not just here for herself but for the success of the community we are building. For all these reasons, I’m proud to recommend Kora for her first AK. Congrats, and thank you for being such an inspiring member of our clan!

Turel, for all of his strengths and weaknesses, knows people, how to work with them, encourage them, and help them achieve the best. Even if there are times when some of us butt heads, it is for the betterment of the Club, the Clan, and our members. I was excited to see him come home to COU, and I am equally sad to see him going back to the Council, but I know the things he will achieve taking over the Bird's Cage will be for the benefit of all of us, not just some of us, and these are the kinds of lasting impressions we should seek to leave in a community like this.

Turel has been a great teacher and community outreach member for Odan-Urr, assisting Kav as she learned the ropes along the way from Battleteam Leader up through Quaestor, supported our new members (so many Edprentices) as they joined The Brotherhood, provided a consistent gaming partner for any and everyone in the DB, and was always unafraid to throw his opinion into discussions about the Clan's welfare and member activities, or reach out about trying new initiatives.

I look forward to the things you'll do in your new position Turel, what bright changes are on the horizon, and how you'll address new members as the future Zookeeper Headmaster.

Ever onwards~
