Inspirational, dedicated, and steadfast; these are just some of the adjectives I could use to describe Kora but it still feels like it's coming up short on how best to describe her. Quite simply, I haven't seen a member like Kora before in my 20+ years of this club. She's a competition juggernaut, easily in the top 5 of our clan's most active if not the club itself. Yet, she's remained grounded and often helps motivate others through a kindness and compassion that I find inspiration when I'm not awestruck. As such, today's token of appreciation, is just a drop in the bucket of how much thanks the clan owes her but alas it is an opportunity for us to celebrate the magnitude of efforts she's contributed to our community.
Since her last award, five months ago, Kora has participated in an astounding 195 competitions, 297 gaming activities, 3 fiction activities with a total of 2334 words. Kora has also pass 9 Shadow Academy courses while gaining 7 degrees. And she has earned 9 society rank-ups (5 Aurora Collegium, 1 GMRG, 1 Chroud, and 2 Envoy. In addition, she's earned 2 Silver Nova, 1 Broze Nova, 68 Crescents (6 Diamond, 5 Ruby, 9 Amethyst, 13 Sapphire, 15 Emerald, 12 Topaz, 8 Quartz) along with 1556 clusters of fire, 6 clusters of ice, 96 clusters of graphite, and 21 Seals of Animosity - which reflect the 425 points she contributed to Vizsla's GJWXVII efforts.
Merits are helpful when it comes to awards like these, but they don't always showcase the best parts of what a member contributes to our community. Vizsla is bettered by Kora in it, not just because of her activity, but in how through her normal operation it pulls others to compete, participate, and join in. There's a gravitational pull with her presence that brings others long with it and I have no doubt that Kora will be defining what it means to be a member of Vizsla for a long time. Thank you for your contributions and congrats on the RS, its the least we can offer you for all the great contributions you have made.
