Every year on May 4th, we award Seals of Loyalty to members nominated by the DC and Consuls--typically one per DC, two per CON. Normally I would have asked for those nominations last week, but this year we're doing something different. In November 2015 (we used to do SoLs twice a year), eagerly awaiting the release of The Force Awakens, Sarin awarded SoLs to all Clanned and positioned members in the club. This year, we're taking a page out of Sarin's book: every member of the club who has logged into the website between January 1, 2025 and May 4, 2025 will receive a Seal of Loyalty. That this club has not just lasted but thrived for 30 years is a remarkable testament to our community, the leaders at all levels who have kept the ship on course, and especially our members who keep engaging year after year. Thank you and congratulations, everyone!

Lontra is a model example of the kind of wide-scope activity you love to see in a Qel-Droman. Taking part in a variety of competitions, fiction, ACC fights, advancing their knowledge in the Shadow Academy, and just all around engaging with just about everything the Brotherhood has to offer!

Since his most recent award, Lontra has taken part in 20 competitions, earning 1 Crescent with Ruby Star, 1 Crescent with Amethyst, and a Crescent with Emerald, and 14 Clusters of Ice total. They've passed 5 Shadow Academy courses, including earning a Maven - Societies degree! They fought hard in the ACC Singularity tournament, and did House Qel-Droma proud in securing a victory over fellow Qel-Droman Archian in a well-fought match. He ranked up in the ACC society from these matches, as well as achieving Rank 11 in the Inquisitorius during this time!

Along with some residual medal XP left from their most recent award, Lontra has more-than earned the awarding of a Grand Cross!

Keep up the good work!
