Throughout their DB history and more importantly in these last few months, the following members have produced stellar work while performing their routine duties. However, unlike typical members these are sometimes neglected in being rewarded for their hard work. So, with the authority of the Emissary bestowed upon me by Grand Master Jac Cotelin, I hereby award these members for their work.

From Clan Arcona
Consul: Archpriest al`Lan Mandragoran
Lan has served his clan for sometime now, first as a Tetrarch and then as Proconsul and now as the Consul of Arcona. In that time he has gone above and beyond what was required of him and so shall be honored with this medal, a Grand Cross.

From Clan Naga Sadow
Proconsul: Exarch Korras Aquillarum
Though recently promoted, Korras has served his clan well. He has stepped up to the plate and taken on more than just the duties of PCON, he has been the acting CON while CNS's Consul was ill and has continually been in service to the DB, whether as PCON or as Praetor to the Lord Marshal or Commander of the Guard. Korras puts more energy into his duties that I have seen in a member in a long time. I am honored to award him this medal, a Sapphire Blade.

From Clan Tarentum
Proconsul: Pontifex Telona Murrage Tarentae
Telona is the prime candidate for Proconsul of the year. She always seems to be there for her clan through thick and thin, ready to make sure that Tarentum has a job to do, to stay busy and encourages them to do the best they can and it shows in the results that they reap. Telona's determination is an inspiration to her clan and marks her as deserving of this award, a Sapphire Blade.

From Clan Taldryan
Consul: Primarch Kir Taldrya Katarn
Kir is one of the longest serving Consuls out there, he has put so much energy into Clan Taldryan and still has time to be the Magistrate to the Grand Master, Praetor to the Deputy Grand Master, an Eclectic Pedagog for the SA and the Left Hand of Justice. Clan Taldryan is always seen near or on the top of competitions because the members see how energized Kir is and it energizes them. Thusly he deserves the Ruby Scepter since he has done all that it entails.

Congratulations to all and to those who have recently been awarded their Clan's name as well. Continue to look up to thes members as examples and the Brotherhood will prosper.
