In the wake of the recent Obelisk Rite of Supremacy, no one in the Brotherhood can argue Dinaari’s dominance. When you look into why this is true, you come upon a sometimes quiet but always hardworking Quaestor behind the scenes. Benevolent Whiner has spent his entire time in the Brotherhood in Taldryan. He has worked his way up, from Battle Team member to leader, then to Aedile for almost a year, and most recently as Quaestor for six months. His smooth but relentless leadership style is a perfect fit for his House. He mixes high levels of personal activity with a drive that ignites his House to perform.

On top of his House leadership, Ben has been the Clan summits go-to guy for nearly all of our projects. He is always available to help, especially when our ideas need to be codified. He personally updates and upgrades the Taldryan website, which is an immense responsibility itself. Throughout all of this work he never complains, he just gets it done. He is probably the single most productive leader work-wise in the entire Clan. Without Ben we wouldn’t be able to realize half of the projects that make Taldryan the Clan it is today. He is indispensable for both House Dinaari and Clan Taldryan. For all of his efforts I would like to award him a Sapphire Blade. (CON Kir’s Departure Awards)

The position of Wiki Tribune is one of the most demanding positions within our club and is unfortunately one of the most underrated. The T:W must track, edit, and read thousands of entries to ensure the Dark Brotherhood Wiki maintains a high level of quality absent in most Wikis across the web. Ben has performed this job with a fluid ease and continues to handle the rigors of T:W with grace and skill. It has been five years since his last sacramental award and Ben is absolutely deserving of an reward for his exceptional work and dedication. -GM Pravus, Voice

Benevolent has been working under the radar on the Wiki for a great long time now, and he's been pretty awesome as a voice of reason in our DC discussion on how and why we do what we do. Ben has been one of those guys who recognize that leadership isn't tied to a position, but instead comes from action, from demeanor. He's a calm influence, someone who is always available to weigh in on something, to help tweak things, and to share another point of view to help us temper our ideas and priojects. Add this to his work as Wiki tribune, and it's easy to see that we need to reward him with something. Please accept this as a token of our esteem, Ben. Thank you for all that you do. It means a lot to us. --Muz Ashen, Dark Lord of the Sith
