X£{}N has, in the last several months, continued to grind in the background, working in the Shadow Academy and dipping their toes into the competitions. Three competitions, a crescent with Topaz star, and 8 Academy courses later, he has earned enough to warrant recognition with an Anteian Cross. Please accept this medal as a token of our esteem for what you have done thus far, as we wait to see and celebrate your next accomplishments. Thank you!

What can be said about Ji? He's a leader by example, a member with ancient knowledge from the wayback beforetimes and someone who more than happily shares every bit of knowledge he possibly can with anyone who is willing to listen. From ancient Selucids to just chatting about the history of the club, Ji is always happy to sit and talk with his peers for a bit. I'm pretty sure when he came back after an extended absence, stepping into leadership was not something he expected to happen, but he has been taking the reins of Sunrider and going out of his way to try to encourage his members to be the best they can be.

Just to touch on a few of his accomplishments, he's participated in a handful of comps and earned a few medals in the form of Crescents with Diamond, Amethyst, and Sapphire stars from them. He's managed 8 society ranks, most notably, six of them in the Collegium (much to Jack's dismay at 2 in the morning -every morning- there was 61 courses passed and 13 degrees earned). He mentored a member to Knighthood and did enough doodling to get himself 20 clusters of Graphite.

So, it is my pleasure to recommend Ji for his second Sapphire Blade. A well earned and well deserved award. Congratulations, my friend. Now please stop inundating my inbox.

Please?

Nikora is a member of many talents. Talents that most never see and most will always feel. This singular member has been Wikipedian of the Month for god knows how many months because of a tireless devotion to making sure that the COU wiki pages remain up to date the best he can, in addition to submitting to comps when life permits and, more often than not, being a sounding board for those who just need some help. Nikora has, for quite some time now, been a friend of mine as well as a confidant and writing partner and in that time he has helped me craft weapons, aspects, descriptions, stories, all of it. And it isn't just me he extends this towards. Without malice or hard feelings, Nikora works, when he has time to, quite happily with anyone who needs his help. Up to and including two new Team Leaders for the Templar Jensaarai he originally created.

A member without peer, Nikora has earned yet another Sapphire Blade for the tireless work for the Clan, the members he supports and the leaders he assists without complaint or question. Congratulations, my old friend, this award has been well earned.

See you in the next one.
