* [[O'Brien Award]] - Serving many roles and handling a number of things for the Resolution, Adea is very much a big part of the success we’ve seen this year. Not only does he sim and sim well, but he works on facilitating missions, leading the mentoring team and mentoring countless officers, helping with the day to day operations of the ship and making sure everyone is involved and has something interesting and important to be involved in. Without his support, I am certain we would not have achieved all that we have. Congratulations Elliot, and know that you are appreciated!

* [[Khan Award]] - PNPCs are not the only aspect of a story that serves to make it memorable and full of depth and meaning. Part of what brings our characters and our stories to life is the strife and struggle that we go through together. It's what brings us together as writers, as well as bringing our characters closer and enabling our stories to take on lives of their own. That struggle is sometimes created by our character's pasts, as we explore any number of things they might have endured along the way...but the biggest catalyst for such strife is the villians that we encounter out there among the stars. It isn't easy to write a good 'bad guy', especially when there are so many talented writers in one place, but the Excalibur has been granted by the universe ever more talent in that area as well. The result has been some incredibly memorable baddies, and plenty of moments in time where the story becomes unforgettable because of them. It is with great pride that I present the Khan award to Elliot. While Genkos Adea is an incredible officer, it is the other characters he brings to life that truly add something for the rest of us to use in developing our own characters. Case in point - CloQ.
* [[Pathfinder Award]] - Another very important aspect of any well run ship is the mentoring program. Having solid mentors who can help officers from Ensign to Commander and above, can make a major difference in retention, feel, and overall enjoyment of the game. Mentors here serve as points of contact and often friends, making it easy for newer players to gain a foothold and really be a part of our game. To that end, developing a mentoring program and leading that program aboard a ship can be one of the more challenging aspects of ship administration. But, when successful, the results are not only amazing, but they speak for themselves. For his contributions to mentoring on its own, as well as developing and the successful integration of the Excalibur's mentoring program, I am proud to present the Pathfinder award to Elliot.
