One score less six days from now, Xanoric will see his ninth year as a Covenant of the Phoenix member. While it is inconsiderable to ascertain his leadership credentials in this present time, with chapter leadership in no less than five separate CotP enterprises along with officership in five more, I would go as far as saying it is his appreciation for efficiency in chapter achievement which sets him apart from most. This day, as we salute his service as a member of the Sacred Circle and his sacrifice to this community as a Knight, Xanoric is hereby appointed to the rank of Paladin. Rise good sir, and be recognized.
