Kav is supernatural, a shining beacon of the purest light who gives so freely to those around her. It’s infectious; her uplifting spirit makes you almost forget all your cuts and scrapes and hurts from life and the friction of being in a club like this with strong personalities. Her presence fills with hope and inspiration. When I first returned to the clan after my Fist term, I was in a rough place. My demons got the better of me and I had to step back and leave so much unfinished. When I rolled into Kav’s battleteam I was at a low point. But Kav reminded me of everything I loved about this place, about these people. Her light rekindled mine, her shine gave me permission to shine again and I wanted to be the best member I could just from being around her.
What was true then, is true now. Coming back to the Clan now, at this critical moment, I see the echoes of Kav’s light reverberating throughout the entire Clan and beyond. She gives so much to those around her, through organizing, rallying, encouraging, sharing her creativity or even just being a friend to listen to some absolutely unhinged gaming banter in voice chat. I’m more inspired than I’ve ever been to do whatever this old tiger can do to help patch up the foundation of the Clan and hand off the baton to Kav and her generation. I want to be the very best I can be because Kav, and members like her, deserve nothing less.
The numbers do not do Kav’s impact justice, but I will give it a try. Since her last award, Kav has participated in 81 Competitions where she took home 8 Gold Novae, 3 Silver Novae, 3 Bronze Novae and 25 Crescents for placing in those competitions. Kav is a prolific gamer, patiently learning whatever game people are playing so she can hang out with us, as evidenced by her 2216 Cluster of Fire. She has made her mark on the clan and club lore through over 100,000 words of fiction and roleplay, resulting in 268 Clusters of Ice. And of course, she inspires and shares her art talent with the club for which she earned 60 Clusters of Graphite.
First Heroine of the War. First place. First out of 173 members of the club who participated in the last GJW. Kav submitted 28 war entries and got full bin participation. Those achievements are enough to secure Kav’s place in the history of COU for all time. But they alone do not capture what I believe is what really makes her the First Heroine of our Hearts, how she gave and gave to other members of the clan in all the ways I’ve talked about behind the scenes. Bringing out the best in us all and shining as an impeccable example for members of this clan young and old.
Kav, honey, not only are you worthy of every title, award, possession and honor we can bestow as a Clan and as a Club but all those things, they are unworthy of you. They fall short of everything you have done and everything you have so freely given. Please accept this wholly inadequate gesture of our thanks for making this place brighter and inspiring us all to be our best selves….even when we’re having the big feels.

- Additional reasons
-
Velira Morvane -- First Heroine of the 17th Great Jedi War -- has well earned her first Ruby Scepter. During the war she participated in no fewer than thirty-three competitions; placing in 13 of them. Aside from that, Velira has always been one of our most active, engaged, and friendly members.
For these reasons, we happily bestow upon her one Ruby Scepter.

Kav is exactly what an Odanite should be; kind, caring, always willing to reach out and help her fellow clanmates, and a general shining light upon the club. I have never seen a Hero of the War be as gracious has she has been. She’s not only reached out to Odanites, but has fostered an amazing relationship with both Arcona (first clan) and Taldryan (third clan). She went so far as to create an amazing piece for the Arconans who helped win the war for them.
I am incredibly proud of everything Kav has done here. Even though she is my apprentice, I hope to someday be as kind, compassionate, and welcoming as she is. She sprints forward into the future to bigger and better things, even when life tries to hold her back.
Congrats on the big ruby cane, Kaviboo. I see many, many more in your future. 💙

Velira, I have seen you involved in just about everywhere. Your dedication to participation in the GJW has done us all proud, and seeing you become the First Heroine has been a treat. Congrats and keep up the excellent work!

Kav has touched my soul and changed my life forever. Even if we stopped talking tomorrow I would remember her personality, advice, and overwhelming support for years to come.
Kav is my anchor, keeping me grounded and sturdy, in place when I need to be, whilst she is also the North star pointing me in direction and support. She shines brightly out of the sea of the other stars in the club. I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with her as her partner during the Audiobook and Comic book competitions for the Great Jedi War XVII. This wasn’t the first time, I’ve also had the privilege working with and alongside her in the Herald staff.
Working with her throughout both, her consistency, hard work, positive attitude, and wonderful personality are the most memorable. Thankfully over the year that we have been on the Herald staff together, I’ve been getting to know her on a more personal level. She is more than just a colleague; She is my friend. She is one of the most supportive people I know, and I am forever grateful to have met her. She is always so bubbly and welcoming to new members, and always willing to help out whenever asked.
Congrats on taking First Heroine and congrats on the Ruby Scepter, girl. You earned it.
