It's not been long since I last awarded Sofila. Frighteningly little time, actually, yet here we are with an absolute KARK tonne from ARC's punchiest Mirilian. Despite all the hurdles and shenangins and Blitz being Blitz thrown her way, Sof or Jenni as we more so call her, has been a anchor of the clan. For once I'm not going to do the numbers first!

On moving up from AED, Sofila took Doon into the position, training him on the reporting done for the House at large and then helping with the spreadsheet editing to make that information better for the credit pull system recently reinstated. Alongside that, she hired and trained Alex Draconic more known as Bograt. She took a dusty old man and got him to a position where now he's leading the House in her stead with confidence and no squeaky wheels. She completed 3 Medal reccs as well as doing 2 people's EQ 2 recommendations, supporting 7 more medal reccs and another 4 promotions. She has been an extremely communicative, responsible and stalwhart leader in HQD, be it handling members and ensurnig she knew what each of them liked, wanted and needed from their leaders, to creating the new house plot solo. All of this, while still regularly outputting reports and keeping people informed.

Not that Jenni's efforts were limited just to leadership, afterall she created the wiki page for Discord Trivia herself, ensuring that it was thoroughly informative and making Trivia comps accessible to anyone who desires to give it a shot. She also updated the Port Ol'Val timeline and Voidbreaker II's roster on their pages and created the Siren air squadron page from scratch, not only creating lore but creating a space for several Arconan members to colloborate and have a shared sense of unity together. Because that's what Jenni is all about, bringing people together and being a beating heart for this community. She has spent hours dedicating her time to her members, and to members outside the brotherhood. You can see that every day when the powers that be aren't nerfing her so she doesn't take over the world.

Finally, to her numbers. Jenni has organised 18 competitions, co-organising 1 more. She has participated in 187 comps, 41 of which containers. In doing so she has earned 6 Crescents with Diamond Stars, 11 Ruby, 7 Amethyst, 15 Sapphire, 7 Emerald, 8 Topaz and 8 Quartz. Across 39 Fiction activities and 3 ACC battles Jenni harvested 124 Clusters of Ice and over 44 Gaming activities there is 336 Clusters of Fire burning a hole in her pocket. She's also earned 3 Dark Side Scrolls and 12 Clusters of Graphite, and just throw some extra in there did a tactical SA exam to gain her one more Degree. All this earned Jenni 5 more Society Rank ups and 872,570 Credits for Clan Arcona.

Those numbers of course are nothing in comparison to the effect Jenni has on our little community, as well as the community of the Brotherhood at large. I couldn't be happier to grant her this Ruby Scepter. Bonk away Jenni, just be gentle with me.

JENNI!

Our illustrious recently-retired boss lady deserves the highest awards this club can give if only for having to put up with my dumb behind.

Jenni has been an invaluable part of House Qel-Droma, Clan Arcona, and the Brotherhood for a longer than I've been back in the club, and is a constant and appreciated presence in all of our social areas.

When I first came back after a 20 year absence, there was hardly anyone I knew or recognized, but Jenni immediately made me feel welcomed and back at home in House Qel-Droma without even a second thought. It's just the way she is. She's always been in-touch with what's going on with everyone around her, and even when she's dealing with tough stuff herself has been a sympathetic ear when anyone was having trouble.

Though she's had to step back from her leadership duties, I have no doubt that she'll continue to be an active and helpful presence around the club, and a great friend.

Behold our lady of dodging bullets, orbit jumping, and the embodiment of the internet’s collection of angry cat memes! Thou who puts the rage in seagull. I ran out of memes to try to quote but not out of praise. Sofila, or Jenni as we all love and know her by, is one of the most open, inclusive, fun-loving and caring member in the Brotherhood. I would say ‘clan’ but I feel her reach and influence does and has always transcended the borders defining units. She has always engaged with everyone and has been invested in the community the Brotherhood strives to build and foster from day one, which was something that clearly she strived to do as leader and accomplished.

Even with real life putting her through the wringer, Jenni always took time out of her day to engage with her members and get to know them and their characters intimately. She learned their interests and helped encourage them to chase them by aiding them with soundboard ideas or nudging comps and rps at them. She worked hard and diligently on the Umbra Ferrum event she ran for Qel-Droma. As a leader, Jenni ensured her unit was always kept in the know with timely reports and that they felt awarded and recognized for their activity via properly due awards and promotions, and a monthly leaderboard. Jenni even organized a group of us with pilot characters in Arcona to populate some life into one of our possession units, the Siren Squadron. As one of the members who was involved with that, I can whole-heartedly say it was a ton of fun even if short lived as many of the characters have moved on to new positions and duties now. The fact Jenni even created us a wiki was tremendous!

I need to learn more vocabulary because I just can’t pin down exactly what makes Jenni great in words. I am so glad you have found your way to the Brotherhood and I got a chance to meet you. Truthfully, I have always felt comfortable talking to you and hell, even anxious but the type of anxious I feel when I just get so hyped to want to befriend someone. A happy silly anxiety that’s worth it. You’re a fantastic person to get to know.

Thank you, Jenni, for everything you have done for Arcona, for House Qel-Droma, and just the Brotherhood whole. We greatly appreciate all of it and hope you get some time to relax and enjoy yourself. Sending well wishes and looking forward to the future as we nod to your past and present.Congratulations on the new stabby! May the stars guide your path!

Primary reason

When you look at the staggering amount of activity that Jenni is able to produce, you’d be hard-pressed to believe she achieves all that while battling illness constantly. I truly mean it when I say she is the heart of Clan Taldryan; I can hardly remember what it was like before she transferred here. Though her last award was less than a year ago, quite a bit has happened. First, she was promoted to Elder! She also has served as both Magistrate and Praetor to the Voice, Magistrate to the Fist, Wiki Tribune, Magistrate to the Consul for one Consul and Proconsul for another. Her list of achievements is longer than a CVS receipt, so buckle up.

Since her last award, Jenni participated in 158 competitions across every category, as well as organizing 10 and co-organizing another 9. For her efforts she has earned an impressive haul of awards; 2 Gold Novae, 2 Silver Novae, 1 Bronze Nova, 14 Crescents with Diamond Star, 14 Crescents with Ruby Star, 12 Crescents with Amethyst Star, 6 Crescents with Sapphire Star, 6 Crescents with Emerald Star, 5 Crescents with Topaz Star, 4 Crescents with Quartz Star, and 22 Seals of Animosity. Jenni is a prolific roleplayer, participating in 29 sessions and tallying up over 57,000 words! Combined with the 17,000 words from her many fiction submissions and another 4,000 words from her two completed ACC matches, she earned 185 Clusters of Ice! If you think that is a lot, then her 8,636 Clusters of Fire from 644 gaming activities will truly blow you away. Not to be outdone in any category, Jenni collected 72 Clusters of Graphite as well. In the Shadow Academy she completed 18 courses and earned 6 new degrees.She ranked up her Societies 8 times, including 5 in the Aurora Collegium of Sciences, 1 in the Shroud Syndicate, and a further 2 as an ACC Judge.

During the GJW Jenni organized competitions and groups for every category of activity within the Clan. She rallied the members everyday in the Discord and kept them motivated, both with her humor, and her continued efforts to be at the top of the gaming leaderboard every week. She earned an absolutely breathtaking 595 points during the GJW with her contributions, ⅙ of the total points earned by the Clan. I can say without a doubt we would not have achieved third place without her.

Jenni jumped in the role of Proconsul for Clan Taldryan headfirst, taking on the duties after I was abruptly promoted to Consul, and she has excelled in every way. She is always ready to write a fiction update or put together a spreadsheet, I swear sometimes she's got the fastest fingers in the Brotherhood. I work closely with her for everything on the Summit. She's not just my Proconsul and peer but also my partner, and she carries the relationship for sure. Even using this awards sweep as an example, she put together a full spreadsheet for every member and then went through and did every recommendation she was able to, to ease the workload that I had to complete and make the process as easy as possible. She has and continues to go far beyond what is asked of her, and I am eternally grateful to have her at my side.

Thank you Jenni for everything that you do, you deserve this award and many, many more! Congratulations!

I'd say you take our breath away, but, death is too busy trying to take yours away, so— lets just check that one at the door for now. Jenni has been a light in the Voice's office for the last several months, bringing laughter (whether intentional or accidental is anyone's guess), dyslexic panic, and plenty of "Don't say it" moments through the rapidfire character sheet submissions, discussions, and the occasional argument debate about policy and where to draw the line in terms of aspects, disciplines, and more.

She has never been one to shy away from her own opinions and will argue them to your face until she's blue in hers (which doesn't take much these days), she's also willing to hear reason and take the opinions of others if they're logical or have a solid backing reason. Just as much, she'll break the tension with humor afterwards with a funny story or rolling her face over the keyboard to remind everyone that it's not that serious and we're all on the same team at the end of the day, to provide the best overall member experience.

Life hits us hard and fast. Jenni's out here hitting it harder and faster, with an oxygen tank, all the while reminding us to take care of ourselves. If anyone's earned an award here, it's her.

Ever onward, my friend.

Jenni is, and remains, one of our most active community leaders. I'd specify a particular community, but I genuinely think she manages to be involved in all of them somehow.

As Fist, I can only speak to her contributions to gaming, which have been, and continue to be, impressive. Long before I brought her back onto staff, Jenni was hosting gaming nights of her own accord, teaching members new games, and helping them get involved. Since her last award, she has participated in over 650 gaming activities. That's 650 times she has worked alongside another member to earn Clusters and drive activity within the club.

Beyond that, she assisted with findings for the Cluster Review project, has been instrumental in guiding members through the new Battlepass system, and has consistently encouraged people to complete tiers and earn their rewards. All of this has been done while remaining one of the most positive influences in our gaming community. There is rarely an evening where her name isn't in one of the voice channels, gaming with or simply spending time alongside our members.

For that, and for everything you do, Jenni, I'm proud to have you among the elite of the GMRG.
