Oh, we're at it again, giving Juna yet another sharp implement!

In all seriousness, you've done more to earn this than your current record attests. Since your last award, you've taken part in 12 competitions, 2 of which being container competitions, and earned yourself a Crescent with an Emerald Star and another with a Topaz Star. Seems you've got a knack for grabbing the shiny things when you jump in the fray, I've no doubt I'll be seeing you off to a few more sharp instruments in the near future.

Ever onwards!

It's been a few months and we've been through a few updates, adjusting XP rewards for various clusters and overall values, since you were awarded last, had I known and could roll it back, I would have held off on your award to give you a slight push toward the Amethyst you're most certainly due. Since your last award, you've taken part in 7 competitions, one of which being a container competition, and earned just over 15,000 credits for Odan-Urr. You've nattered about in the Discord on occasion, giving your accounts of the days of old and bantering with the rest of the crew. While you're not the most active of us, your contributions and appearances are always appreciated and we look forward to the times you decide to pop in and shout at us, waving your cane and yelling at the clouds.

Sometimes all it takes is a small break before we get back to form, and I'm glad to see that this was the case for Revak. Having had a chance to recover and coming back around, Revak has thrown down with renewed zeal, activity, and an overall presence in the Club. I'm always proud to see figures like Revak cropping back up and headlining a Cluster Digest or taking placement in our monthly status reports, and most of all, I'm proud to hand over this Sapphire Blade today, Revak, you've more than earned it.

Ever onwards!

Jkast has been nothing short of amazing these past few months with his dedication and hard work in CSP and the rest of the DB. It's wonderful to have him here and I'd like to present him with his first stabby award, a Sapphire Blade, for everything he has accomplished. He's constantly on the lookout for gaming opportunities, he's hitting the books at the Shadow Academy on the regular, he's doing a multitude of competitions, and he's a joy to interact with on Discord. He is most welcome here and we're very grateful he's come back around to CSP. He's everything we want out of our members. I'm very excited to see what's next for him.

Thank you for everything you do here, Jkast! Congrats!

Sacramental Weapons are a tradition within the Brotherhood. Beyond Campaign Seals, Clusters and Crescents for battlefield victories, and above the vaunted Crosses for prolonged effort, Sacramental Weapons rise above by an order of magnitude. Granted for exceptional and long term dedication, these weapons are a mark of distinction among those who carry them, and a matter of envy for those who do not.

The first of these weapons in any member’s career is the Sapphire Blade. Yet another entry in the list of things that we have taken inspiration from Ancient Rome from, the weapon is patterned after the Gladius. It is also one of the highest awards possibly awarded by a member’s Clan.

Veil Arcana has made himself worthy of such a weapon, his efforts all but demanding that we acknowledge him with one. Fifty Eight tests of will, a raft of clusters and crescents, and over a quarter million credits deposited into the clan’s coffers as a result, Veil has kept himself quite busy. In honor of his work, in appreciation of his efforts, and in the hopes that he shall continue to humble his enemies with his victories, I am happy to recommend that Veil Arcana be awarded his first Sapphire Blade.

Vincent Brujah, our very own Roy Mustang, has lit such a fire for the Clan. He stepped up to be our QUA of Caliburnus when the Clan needed him most and for that we are forever grateful. He's been very dedicated in his role and it's such an honor to have him be apart of our summit leadership for the past 4 months.

He's done it all from participating in 136 competitions, as well as organized 15 Clan competitions for CSP, to battling it out in the ACC tourney, to gaming and getting 193 Clusters of Fire and earning 27 more Clusters of Ice and 20 Clusters of Graphite, to ranking up 9 times across our various societies. He's also earned a degree in the SA. He even got his first Silver and Bronze Novae ever from the Probowl where he helped the FrogDogs achieve victory, AND being our Clan's top earner in points for the event, coming in at 157 which puts him at 4th place overall. That's incredible! He's done so much more but I wanted to highlight a few things.

He's been a firestorm of activity and it's wonderful to have him with us; as a member, as a leader. He's been a very positive person to be around, and he helps the summit do the day to day things. He's run competitions at the Clan level and advertise them on discord for all the be aware of. He's one of a kind to have around and I'd like to give him a little something to show how much he means to us.

Thanks for all you have done for us and with us, Brujah. Drinks are definitely on you this day!

Having Shadow return to CSP once again has been very refreshing. She's hit the activity hard right out the gate, participating in what moves her. Mostly fiction as it's always been her favorite. She has joined us in our current Clan RP and racking up Envoy points, plus 6 Clusters of Ice. She also found some traction in gaming at times. She's a very versitile member to have and I'm glad she's returned. Shadow's contributions to the Clan is vast and numerous, spanning back 14 years. The experience and the numbers speak for themselves. She has had to tend to real life matters from time to time, but she always returned and it's good to have her back.

I wish to welcome her back with a special award, befitting her activity since her last medal a year ago. It's wonderful that I get to award her a Sapphire Blade. You've earned it, Shadow!

Since his last award, Vodo has been quite active both in full view and behind the scenes. He has participated in 27 competitions, earning himself 2 Crescents (1 Sapphire, & 1 Topaz). He has earned himself 72 Clusters of Fire across 7 Gaming activities. Additionally, he has elevated his rank across the various societies 3 times.

But it is in his writing, where Vodo stands out. He finished 3 ACC battles, for a total of over 6.000 words. He took part in 5 fiction activities and participated in one RP Session for another 2.004 words. His efforts have gathered him another 18 Clusters of Ice. Aside from this, Vodo is one of the driving forces behind Taldryan’s fictional development and one of the architects of the Clan’s storyline. As part of this, he has been integral in planning out currently ongoing events and aspects of events that will span the next year or longer.

Vodo, my friend, you’re an integral part of Taldryan. You form an integral part of what makes the Clan work as it does. Consider this Sapphire Blade to be a reflection of your efforts to bring enjoyment and comradery to us all. Congratulations and thank you for all you do!

In the last 12 months, Nobilus has not been sitting quietly. He organised 1 competition and co-organised another. He participated in 243 competitions, earning himself 35 Crescents (4 Diamond, 5 Ruby, 8 Amethyst, 8 Sapphire, 8 Emerald, & 2 Topaz). Participation in the 16th Great Jedi War earned him 9 Seals of Transcendence. Additionally, he passed 4 Shadow Academy Courses and attained another Degree. And for 2 of these 12 months, he did this ontop of serving as one of the Taldryan Magistrates.

Nobilus is constantly lurking on the Discord server. Always there to chat with people, offer insights, and be a generally sociable presence.

Nobilus, you’re a credit to Taldryan, keep up the good work. Congratulations on the Sapphire Blade. You’ve more than earned it, enjoy!
