Your attention please, we have a promotion (thehumantrashcan)

[Barmacral - Administrator]

Manshima Oskar (thehumantrashcan) has been well spoken of in the dispatches as one worthy of promotion to the rank of Der'Manshima. Who would speak on his behalf?

*gets pushed up front by oskar* 

 

*glares back at him, clears throat*

 

I guess i'll speak on his behalf. 

 

i've known oskar a while now, almost from the start of joining this community. and while we both enjoy causing a little mayhem here and there, there's one overriding aspect to it that i've always seen in oskar. ok maybe more than one. enthusiasm and the desire that everyone has a good time. which translates into respect. and not just the 'in passing' kind. but a real, genuine, active respect. eager to help, eager to lend a hand, eager to just be there if needed. be it in events, or threads, or more simply conversations. oskar's there. 

 

when life gets hectic. this place has been a refuge. and one he does not neglect. 

 

a jester. a lover of discussions both frivolous and serious. oskar is a helper. dedicated and noble despite his penchant for setting things on fire. 

 

and while i fear for his safety getting an actually sharp sword, i know oskar is all that is a warder.

I, JamesBrown, will speak for this man, Oscar, thehumantrashcan.

 

Here is a man who embodies commitment. Commitment to his Aes Sedai, Cross of the Brown Ajah. Commitment to his fellow Warders. Commitment to the White Tower and all who dwell therein.

 

Oscar is a valuable addition to the Warder's Guild, and he well deserves its highest rank.
