Gah! You had to post this now?!
I'm sorry I couldn't get the thread out, mate. I was literally typing it as you posted this... so, I'll post what I had.
Happy birthday to our dear Veteran Hector Cannonbane!
Hector, you've been such a proud mark on the face of this guild. You've spent nearly every day with us to pushing the horizons, adventuring with your fellow mates, and bringing our guild and it's members to new heights! A pirate such as yourself - so ambitious, yet caring for his fellow mates - is a very rare thing to see, and I'm confident if you stay so resilient as you are now, you'll be very successful in the years to come. Until then, however, you've become an asset of this guild, and you've left your mark on it permanently by showing that every pirate can make the best of everything that's given to him and come out on top as one of the most respectable pirates this side of the Caribbean. Have a wonderful birthday, mate!
Unfortunately I didn't get time to grab presents by the time you posted this, but I'm sure I can grab some soon. Until then, let the others take it away!
Happy birthday, Hector!!
