Primary reason

Once again, I'm happy to be recommending Ed for a major award. Even in so-called retirement, Drachen has continued to impress with high activity. Since his last recognition, he has participated in 48 competitions and earned 7 crescents, including two with ruby stars. The scale of his activity is most obvious in gaming: Ed's earned 889 Clusters of Fire, 56 Clusters of Earth, and 2 Pendants of Blood. He also branched out slightly to take the Shroud Syndicate Initiation SA exam.

However, in addition to gaming, Ed's also got a long history of leadership. Within the awardable period this included service a P:Fist, which Drac has detailed below, and as Quaestor of House Hoth. Between the two jobs, Ed organized an impressive 23 competitions and co-organized an additional 5. This included The Price of Freedom, a successful house event for Hoth. To round things out, Ed also contributed 6 reports/news posts between his two jobs, graded 7 SA exams, and was awarded 6 Scrolls of Foundation for SA service.

Congratulatios, Ed, and I hope you get the chance to enjoy some well-deserved lazy time on the hammock.

Additional reasons

Since his last recognition, Edgar served on my staff as Praetor for six months. During that time he managed the office solo while I was away at training. He ran five monthly gaming challenge containers, and approved 27 PvE/PvO activities and 54 PvP activities.

Edgar continues to be an active gamer and is more than deserving of this award. Congratulations!

Edgar is a special cookie. I say this because he is always the first to offer assistance, and the first to offer criticism. I don’t say this in a negative way, as Edgar is also the first to criticize himself. His criticisms are usually right on the mark, and because of this the unit benefits. Edgar and I have butt heads a few times, and every time he was respectful and always made it painfully aware that he was only trying to help. And that is exactly what he did, and every day continues to do so.

Edgar, I don’t think I have ever told you how much I respect you. You fight for what you believe in, and have no fear of speaking your mind. Your activity levels and the amount of work you have accomplished alone give you this award, but it is your personality that makes me believe you have earned it. Keep being you, man.

What I want to say about Edgar is that he is a very strong character for the House and the Clan. He always has been since I’ve known him. He has always been helpful in assisting me with anything I ever needed, and has never been short of his constructive criticism to benefit both the individual member, such as myself, and the House/Clan as a whole. I think without him I would not be where I am today without his encouragement to continue to be active and get involved with the House/Clan or his feedback about my ability to do whatever task I was given. He always is one to fight for what he truly believes in. I both respect him, even in the rough times, and wish to honor him and his accomplishments with this recommendation for a Grand Cross
