Event History

Since earning his last award, Rian has been a steady source of activity. He participated in 51 competitions, earning himself 10 Crescents (1 Amethyst, 3 Sapphire, 5 Emerald, & 1 Quartz). On top of this, Rian managed to acquire a Dark Side Scroll for contributing to improving the Club’s social media presence. He also managed to pass 5 Shadow Academy Courses and attain another Degree.

Overall, Rian is one of those active Elders who are always around to provide advice and share knowledge when asked but who are happy to sit back while other members make their mark on the Clan and Club.

Rian, Taldryan is lucky to have you. Congratulations on the Sapphire Blade. Happy stabbing!

In the months since his last medal, Raiheaux has participated in 9 competitions. Earning himself 3 Crescents (1 Diamond, 1 Topaz, 1 Quartz).

Raiheaux or Justinios is a pillar of Taldryan and a strong social presence on discord and elsewhere. His strong presence, peaceful nature, and dedication to others has coloured his entire time in the Club and has not yet diminished. Even now that he’s mostly stepped away from his insane levels of gaming activity, he’s still an undiminished sociable presence that is always willing to help others, offer advice, commentary, joke around, and more. Raiheaux is a pleasure to interact with anytime, anywhen, anywho. No doubts about it.

Thank you for being such a massive part of what makes Taldryan into the sociable place it is. Keep up the good work and enjoy your Sapphire Blade. You’ve earned it!

Titius Osseus, the Sooty One, is a member that certainly leaves a lasting impression (and no, it’s not ALWAYS because of an explosion). Titius joined Plagueis mere months ago, but fit in so well that it feels like he’s always been here. He immediately stepped into the role of Quaestor of House Tyranus, a position with large shoes (or a large hat) to fill and threw himself headfirst at it, determined to do everything in his power to help the house grow. When we told Titius to lead by example and do all the things, he took that to heart and it really shows in his activity numbers. Since his last medal in May, Titius has participated in 66 different competitions, the variety of which is truly all over the place! His efforts in everything from gaming, fiction, graphic and so many miscellaneous competitions have earned him placements in 12 comps and 3 Crescents with Diamond Star, 1 Amethyst, 5 with Emerald, 1 with Topaz and 2 with Quartz Stars as well as an incredible 201 Clusters of Fire for his gaming, 20 Clusters of Graphite for his art and 12 Clusters if Ice from his fictioning work including 3 ACC matches, 2 RPs that he has participated in and his first RP as a DM for a total of 3654 words written. All of these crazy numbers have led to Titius ranking up once in the Inquisitorius, as an ACC participant and as an RP organizer as well as three times in the Shroud Syndicate!

But here’s the thing about the Sooty One, he hasn’t just been a consumer of all things, he’s also been busy putting competitions together to get the members active. As someone who started off nervous about organizing competitions, Titius has done a great job co-organizing 4 comps and organizing an additional 8 on his own. Now, I have talked a bit about Titius as a Quaestor, and I’ll get back to that, but that isn’t the only position he has held. Titius has been busy at work in the Shadow Academy, passing 2 courses and adding 3 more degrees, all while holding down a position as Magistrate to the Headmaster. But I’ll let Arch talk more about that last part.

These numbers alone speak volumes about the type of member Titius is, but the numbers aren’t the one speaking here, I am. So, I am going to keep talking about our dear explosive obsessed friend and all of the things he does that the site doesn’t track. Titius has gone on record saying that his goal as Quaestor was to “Improve myself by improving the House", and in that he has succeeded. In August Titius worked with his fellow Plagueian Quaestor to organize the Aliso Summer Festival in order to get members of the clan warmed up and ready for the Pro Bowl. This event saw over 100 entries and helped build the hype of Pro Bowl VIII just a few weeks later where his outreach and encouragement was instrumental in getting 60% of House Tyranus participating in the event. Though Titius made the hard decision recently to take a step back from leadership, in his time as Quaestor he was relentless in getting his reports out like clock-work making sure that every member of his house had their achievements highlighted and celebrated. Titius also made sure that he was always keeping an eye on what the members of Tyranus were up to, ready to send Howie award and promotion recommendations almost as soon as members became eligible. Reading any of his recommendations it is clear that Titius cares about the members of his house and enjoys bragging about their achievements. Titius is always the first person in the Plagueis discord channel in the morning ready to check in on members, offer them a pot of coffee and start every day off with a bang. He is always there to greet new members, offer a warm welcome, get to know members both new and returning and is always there to answer questions no matter how big or small, and if he doesn’t know the answer he isn’t afraid to admit it and find someone who does.

Titius has been a welcome addition to the clan summit, enthusiastic and eager to learn new things, he hasn’t been afraid to share his ideas and opinions with the summit. He has quickly become a staple of Plagueis, a member I can always expect to see interacting with other members of both the clan and the club as a whole and a member I always look forward to chatting with. While I will miss having you on the summit, I am truly grateful to have been able to work with you over the past few months and am proud to have you as a member of Plagueis. Your contributions to the summit have been invaluable and I hope to see you take another crack at a leadership position once that pesky RL calms down a bit. Congratulations on an extremely well deserved Sapphire Blade, just don’t blow it up!

Krandon has only recently returned to us from the Rogues and has hit the ground running. Within days he was submitting to competitions, being a presence on Discord and generally being as amazing as we remember him being. We are happy to have him back with us and now we'll get down to the numbers.

Krandon has always been a flurry of activity, gaining crescents in a few colors, three amethyst and a Sapphire, five clusters of ice, ranking up in both fiction and graphics societies, gained four - FOUR - SA degrees and completing 17 courses to get there. This is a member who shows they have the drive to do what is available, a member with the desire to improve and, more importantly, a member who is willing to be an example. Krandon is someone that I am always pleased to have around because of their friendly nature, someone I'm honored to know as a member of my clan and happy to be around for no other reason than he is simply happy to be here just like the rest of us.

Congrats, Krandon. You've earned this fancy stabby. Well earned and well deserved.

Archian, the Beastmaster, the Brewster and Cook, the family man. Our favorite red Shistavanen has earned himself 5125 mxp for a Sapphire Blade!

The man has been busy. He participated in 77 comps excluding containers, and scored 1 Diamond, 1 Ruby, 3 Amethyst, 8 Sapphire, 5 Emerald, 2 Topaz and 1 Quartz Crescents. His lovely art submission netted him 50 CoG and a rank up in the Shroud Syndicate. He participated in 9 gaming activities, earning 23 CoF and a rank up in the GMRG. Archian had done 13 fiction activities total and earned 36 CoI. He participated in the Singularity 2024 tournament, participating in 2 ACC battles with 2840 words total and ranking up once in the Antei Combat Center(Participant). He wrote 4883 words for 7 regular fictions. In roleplaying, Archian participated in 3 rps with 3234 words in all AND he ran his own RP with 5990 words, earning him 2 ranks in the Envoy Corps(organizer) society. Archian is a loyal member of Arconan through and through. He has a big heart and a love of life that is infectious. His loyalty was recognized this year with the awarding of a Seal of Loyalty.

Archian, it's an honor to recommend you for this Sapphire Blade. Well done, and may the stars guide your way as your Porg watches your six.

Edema R'uh-Kalinor has been one of the most loyal Arconans the clan has ever had. While life has kept her busy, she has without a doubt been active and contributing to the Brotherhood through the years. That activity has earned her the 5125 medal XP needed for a Sapphire Blade! So let's get into the gritty details.

Since her last award, Edem had participated in 4 competitions. She won a Sapphire Crescent and a Topaz Crescent. She has participated in 7 gaming activities. Normally I'd list how many CoF's were earned from those, but let's look at the greater picture of clusters — that lifetime total which accounts for the majority of the XP here since the XP system came to be. 435 CoF! 183 CoI from fiction activity since joining, 151 CoG from arting. Edema had earned 6 Pendants of Blood, 49 Vendetta Seals, 4 Scrolls of Foundation, 1 scroll of indoctrination, and 2 Dark Side Scrolls. She had also received 2 Seals of Loyalty for her commitment and, well, loyalty to Arcona.

It is with great honor to award Edema with this Sapphire Blade. May the stars guide you path.

The ancient Gentleman Mandalorian is at it again! Hitting milestones and demonstrating that old dogs can still do tricks and with style. Captain Alex Draconis has reached the 5125 Medal XP for a Sapphire Blade! Since his last medal, he has participated in 112 competitions not including containers. His efforts netted him 3 Diamond, 5 Ruby, 3 Amethyst, 9 Sapphire, 5 Emerald, 1 Topaz and 1 Quartz Stars. Alex had graced us with his amazing art, such as bubbles and a chicken Fosh, and earned 14 CoGs and a rank up with the Shroud Syndicate. He joined in on 3 gaming activities worth 17 CoFs, and ranked up in the GMRG. Alex has also participated in 3 regular fictions of 5144 words, 2 RP (Participant) of 3233 words total, and 1 RP he led and wrote 2912 words for. He was awarded 23 CoIs, 2 Inquisitorius rank ups, a Envoy Corp (Participant) and a Envoy Corp (Organizer) rank up. Alex passed 8 courses, earned a Maven in Combat and in Societies.

Alex Draconis has been at the helm of the Voidbreaker, holding the BTL position for over 2 months now. He’s kept his unit informed with timely monthly news posts, been active in their chats and with them, and an involved participant in the management of both the Battleteam and the House’s direction where it concerns his members as well as clan summit discussions and decisions as a whole. Alex is a very approachable, open and inclusive individual who’s chill demeanor contributes to the positive community we strive to support.

With all of the above demonstrating exactly how this Mando made every Medal XP earned worth its full measure, I am happy to recommend Alex Draconis for a Sapphire Blade. Congratulations, Alex! Keep it up and may the stars guide you!

Seven years ago I joined Odan-Urr and spent my nights arguing with Turel, Blade, Arch, and this one, over the funniest and dumbest things as I tried to learn the ins and outs of The Brotherhood, while dealing with some of the hardest things in my life. Back then, things only got harder for me, I ended up taking a long hiatus, but in that time Celevon was one of the few members of The Brotherhood (who wasn't part of my outside circle of friends) who poked me routinely to check if I was still handling life decently until I took a hiatus from the internet at large for most of 2019.

If you had told me then, that I'd be back, in the hot seat, and giving him the awards he was saying I deserved for putting up with the routine ribbings and absolute destruction I faced gaming and arguing with members of the Clan, as well as just trying to be a good member back during my first divorce and custody battle, I would have called you a liar. Now I'm glad to be in this position and see that his penchant for people and helping out, even when he acts like he's doing nothing, hasn't changed at all. He's still the same argumentative, laugh-filled, teacher who randomly pokes in to make sure everything's all right, and has no bones about poking and prodding to make sure people understand what is going on.

Benn is another of our members who always has something cooking. Consistently active, whether he's pushing out a bunch of competitions at once, or going through a couple of small competitions in a week, there hasn't yet been a period where I've checked the report and not seen his name somewhere, waiting, on the Odan-Urr activity tracker.

Councillor Wolfe, 2024-08-21 00:27:01 UTC

Though Enzo only recently joined Vizsla, upon reviewing his assessment, he has completed 24 competitions, earning 1 Crescent with Diamond Star, Ruby, Amethyst, Sapphire, Topaz, and 2 Quartz Stars. Additionally, he has earned 2 Clusters of Ice, 6 Clusters of Graphite, and passed 5 Shadow Academy courses.

Congratulations, Enzo Dek, on your new Sapphire Blade.
