hello, this is possibly the greatest act of my time here with the brotherhood. i create this now to commemorate the lives and deeds of those who have fallen and left us. i do this here and now so as to preserve our history, to preserve our way of life.
to you who read this, these are the people who paved the way to your time, your world. we have fought to give you your life, your freedom.
if you have someone you wish to commemorate, you may do so here. they must be people like ender and slade, or munki who has recently retired.

Well, i think it would be a great idea to start with the greatest member of BOS to date..those of you that knew him know who i am talking about....the very Reason BOS is in existance today My great Friend, ender_169  There is not much that i can say about him that isnt good, possibly the only thing i can say that was bad about him was that he left, but most of us wouldnt actually call that a bad thing...he had to prioritise his life, and good on him. Back when he founded the guild he used to spend anywhere up to 18-20 hours a day here maintaining the guild, gathering members. The guild grew he appointed paladins, those worthy of helping him with his duty. But enough about brotherhood history, he has told that story in the library, i am here to talk about him, the man behind the General. He slept very little as far as a knew, he didnt have many friends, or so he thought, i was proud to call myself his friend. I helped him through some tough times, and he helped me. Being a rather selfless person, he would always be helping his dad with jobs around the house whenever he wasnt asleep or working on the Brotherhood. The saddest thing i hated was his eventual withdrawal from the guild, when i joined, he would chat with us, hang around and joke with us....a few months after i became paladin, he stopped chatting with the members, he didnt want to make any friends, he became stricly professional, and that saddened me....of course we always talked from time to time....then close to the time of his leaving, he started chatting and RP'ing again, and it was good to see him around the guild on a friendly basis....Anyway, im rambling on again, He was a great man, he still is, and i hope he is doing well wherever he is, and in whatever he is doing...He is the greatest man in BOS history, and i rue the day he left, and i look forward to his return...I know your Watching Buddy *raises a small metal flask filled with brandy* Heres to you buddy, the guild will never be the same without you. Kagome Pegasus I'd also like to thank him on this....When ever i needed hardcore advice on stuff he was the one i looked up too. He also made sure that each and everyone of his Members was looked after and watched carefully. He was tough and although he is gone i really appericated him letting me slide here or there on posting due to my irl being so f'ed up. Plus he was a guy who knew how hard it was to make in life. He also made it clear to me to seek help when need be no matter how hard it was. He helped my fallen relationship get back together alothough saddly i lost it. He was still there to help me along. He really could treat a person like he'd known them for years. After while thogh Allectus is right he became as stiff as a steel post. He never once was the same and for all you who haven't notice this in talking to old members when the guild almost fell apart he still was able to get himself and the rest of us back together. He called the BoS at the time "Phoenix" Because like the Phoenix the BoS was a new sense of life and renewal. He helped out anyone and everyone he could. I'm rambling i know. But, in the purest sense from what i ever got from Ender was a determined man who has a natural talent for leading excellance and for showing everyone their true brillance. (i.e. helped me with my grammar) That is all i have to say Thankyou KP for your addition to a tribute to a great man ^_^

I want to say something about a person who helped me when not just I needed it, but when the whole BOS needed it. I am talking about Fenrir Fenix. Everyone remembers Kider's betrayal of the Brotherhood, and while I started it, he finished it, telling Ender about what exactly Kider's guild was about. It was while in my short campaign with the Brotherhood that he gave me entirely voluntary help, and in the process, saved my a** from punishment. Of course, it was in the one of the Brotherhood's darkest hours of need that he gave this help, and not only I, but the of the Brotherhood, should be thankful of this man who acted because he wanted to help the Brotherhood without want for reward or praise. Thank you Fenrir, this is my tribute to you.

While we read the tributes to brothers, we always forget one thing. The guild itself. The guild has been here whenever someone needed to vent, or something was going really wrong IRL. And let's not forget how the guild has survived many many things, from that time oh so long ago when we almost had an up-rising, to just recently, when Ender and Wasted decided to retire and leave gaia for sometime. This proves that the guild is strong and will survive anything, and I think it deserves a tribute all its own.

I'd like to make a dedication to a few people actually.
Wasted_years-The pillar of support straight from the beginning and the first member of the guild after I created it. She's been with me since the beginning of the guild, the first day to the day I retired. God bless her, she's been a life saver more than once, I admire her strength. When I needed her, she was there by my side every step of the way. When I got burnt out, she gave me the energy to go on. I'll always love you Wasted_years, always remember that no matter what. Your my light in my dark world and give it life. Thank You.
To all of the original members of the guild who I consider and give the title of "friend" to them.
MunkiHunter-For his long and undying support. He's a good soldier and can make anyone's day with one of his jokes.
Allectus-What can I say about this man that no one knows? He's a great guy, a strong supportive leader and a dear friend who I miss dearly.
Seck-Ah, Seck my boy, we've been friends a long time. Throughout history you've left your mark, there was never a time where you haven't been in memory.
Egyptian_Vampiress-You and your water balloon fights. You've been by the guild for a long time and will always have my respect for that like so many of the other originals.
Fenrir Fenix-You sneaky devil you and helping out the guild so much by your technical ways. You've been a friend and thank you.
HellRider the Hitman-Not a original of BOS, but still a great friend, thanks for being there.
Slade226-Ah Slade, dear Slade. A pillar of support in times of need. Your a good man and deserve respect for anything. Your a great man and I hope you find happiness.
To any other ones I've forgot to mention-I apologize if I left someone out, it's so many people who has helped this guild become what it is today and I thank you all for being by my side through all of it, thank you my friends.

I'd like to thank him as well. Without him, I wouldn't have been able to redo all the banners here in this guild. He's great at giving specific feedback so I know exactly what he wants, and together we're giving this guild a new style.
Thanks, Ender. None of this would have happened without you.

I want to put former Paladin of the Repentia Barroks, Kissamaki. He was a great person as far as I knew. I haven't known him very long, but I have read things he has posted. He seemed like a good guy. We are all very sad and dissappointed that he retired. We will miss him very much. Farewell former Paladin Kissamaki.

I used to be in his barracks and without him there would be no mess hall, no anything that Kissamaki made. So I second the nomination for Kissamaki to be inducted into the wall of brothers

Ender is already on here, but I would just like to document that General Ender retired a second (and most likely the last time) Tuesday May 20, 2008 3:22 am.
He will be missed by many... but not forgotten. =) I'll always know him as Papi, and although I never got to talk to him a whole lot, I know he was an inspiration to a ton of us and I know he is one of the best guild leaders Gaia Online has ever had.

Branching off of what Lifeless said, I too wish to speak of Ender. Never before have i seen a man of his calibur. Hard working, determined, helpful, wise and dignified are only a few words that define him as a person. Him leaving is a horrible blow to us all, and although this is a time of sorrow for us, we can only hope that it is a time of relief and prosperity for him. He had his reasons to leave and that is acceptable by any means. He is a man of honor, of loyalty, dedication and a man worthy of praise. If you were to tell him this to his face he'd deny it of course, but it's the truth. I wish Ender.... no not ender, the man behind ender, the man in real life who's alias is Ender, the best of luck and god speed. I hope to see him in the future, just to se ehim check in now and again would be nice. I've learned many things from him, and the thing most recently learned is this: Dont take the blessings you have for granted. One day you might just realise it isnt there anymore. Thats what happened in my case.... I wont let it happen again.
