Zuza Lottson has continued in the fine tradition of smol-but-fierce Qel-Dromans since her previous promotion to full “Knighthood” in early March. Where many a freshly promoted might take a while to bask in the glory of their achievements, Zuza shows no sign of stopping and has remained a consistent and enthusiastic doer of things, taker of names, and punter of posteriors. She’s really grown into a staple face not only within her Battleteam, but House and Clan, and regularly interacts with and enthuses the DJB at large!

Her numerical accolades include (co-)organizing a trio of competitions while participating in a whopping 52, as well as completing 17 SA courses and earning a trio of degrees. From her competition efforts, she’s brought home 2 Diamond, 2 Ruby, 8 Amethyst, 6 Sapphire and 2 Topaz Crescents, as well as 3 Clusters of Fire, 24 of Ice for her 6700 words of Fiction, and 35 of Graphite!

During the recent RoS, Zuza really stepped up her game, earning 17 Seals of Enmity and bringing home a Gold and Bronze Nova. Considering this is her first outing in such a major event, this is quite the achievement! Not only that, but throughout the event Zuza could be found encouraging others in Arcona and beyond, building new friendships, and working together with her peers beyond clan borders to make the event even more enjoyable for us all!

To reach the end of the Journeyman track, a member must show dedication and understanding of the core tenants of our club. Gaining that rank is acknowledgement that one is ready to take off the training wheels. But to be promoted to the ranks of Equites is to show others what you would do with the skills you’ve gained and to steer your own course. It has been a tremendous pleasure to watch Zuza grow and develop her skills and character, fostering friendships and establishing herself as a real presence within Arcona. Rarely can I be as confident as now when I say she is ready to take her place as a true peer among the community—a true Equite.

Having witnessed Zuza grow from Journeyman to being a Knight, and now facing a Rite of Supremacy like she’s a veteran already fills me with joy.

Not only did she tackle a daunting competition like a RoS like a champ, but she also managed to place in several competitions. All this while maintaining her ever sweet and friendly self that we’ve gotten used to.

Zuza assures me the future of Qel-Droma is coming up great, and she is the embodiment of what being a true Equite represents.

She has given back to the House and Clan more than we could have asked of her, and she’s done so without ever wanting nothing in return but a friendly smile. Which isn’t hard to do because it is impossible not to smile when flooded by Zuza’s happy vibes.

I am honored to support this recommendation and welcome Zuza to the Equite ranks!

Congrats chibi!

As our fearless Lek-leader has already attested to, Zuza has been the model of a modern major General member, and demonstrates all the traits we look for in our Equite ranks. Beyond her impressive metrics, Zuza has been one of the most active and engaged Journeymen I have seen in years. Her optimistic, cheerful demeanor is now starting to spread and grace the rest of the Brotherhood as she comes out of her shell and interacts more and more with the club as a whole, not just staying inside the bubble of Clan Arcona. Zuza took this above and beyond in the latest RoS, where she elected to go with a faction different from the majority/rest of her Battleteam. Her eagerness in this case rewarded her with her first Gold Novae, a handful of new friends I’ve observed that have fallen for her natural charisma, and completed all nine bins. Jeepers!

Zuza has not waited for someone else to tell her what or where to be. She has taken her own destiny and activity into her own hands, and continues to help make Arcona and Voidbreaker Battleteam a rewarding and happy place to be, and her energy continues to bolster and encourage even an old jaded dog like me to smile and appreciate the potential our new members can bring to our organization.

Keep up the amazing work, Zuza. The sky's the limit. Congratulations, and I promise I’ll start working on that fanfiction from Zig soon (A Wally always pays his debts).
