Give him a cool custom item that spawns 50 freaking sweet shurikens once per rest or something
nice idea

In the last week, he's done 2 or 3 sermons, hosted a contest etc.
He's also whinged a bit about PvP with Ethika during the trial.
I still feel Verk is a strange duck, who tries to do everything we ask without actually understand what we're asking.
But if we give him an item what?
Has he pushed enough to be considered "official clergy"? Do we want that, considering his form of PvP seems to be "ban people from the city" and "beg someone else to PvP them for me".
If we give official clergy, we need to be a bit clearer as to what it is because folks seem to run through "you are free to do anything and I was official Cyric clergy to 'your high priest will back you up unless you're an idiot'". And that probably needs a clearer ground and stance from us, especially with the way the "law book" is written.
He was also worried we'd taken his hesitance as a black mark against him. Honestly, I wouldn't want to pvp Ethika either. Guy is usually fun, but also sometimes insane.

Yeah, needs more than an item now really.

Verk needs to recognize it's not his place to police other Players over OOC things (He also does it to DMs whenever he thinks something is too strong), the DM team is here for that.
It takes about 2 seconds to scroll through DM forums to see that he also has done some shitty things, gotten his vault wiped in the past, etc.His knee jerk reaction to anyone going against him IC is to ban them, or exile them. If another player insults his PC he immediately wonders if he should FD them if they don't stop insulting him.
Honestly, would have liked to see him take a different approach but during the trial by combat after he loses he just goes into his sore loser mode. Ethika didn't fight him, he nominated another player to take the role instead and I thought it was a nice step. Meanwhile in verk's PM's to you he's complaining about Ethika FDing him, when at the same time he's asking us to hold him back from FD'ing Draco in his own plot ticket.
From an IC perspective, he's just immediately reverted back to the same stuff he did on gregor. Why would the tymoran church promote him for that?
Give him a piece of loot from Arturo Rallyhorn, but also tell him to stop embarrasing the church

Sadly true.
Still one of the most prominent characters right now
-
Having an NPC give him the time of day and also a bit of a course correction on his obsessions would be a nice touch. Aka, this isn't the church of "boohoo this person doesn't listen to me", it's the "go out and show people what can happen when you take real bold steps" church of the patron goddess of the city --- a big responsibility as has been called out.
Also that he's consistent about doing things, even if they are pretty formulaic and overly direct to plot. I agree there should be something related to this. Perhaps an item and a mission from the church that works him towards clergy?
Make it converts to Tymora if you want to stretch it out. Or get three mcguffins if you want him to try to get it all in one afternoon.

Its been awhile. I think its time to make this official:
List of deeds accomplished/working on. I'll admit, his style can get exhausting but he pushes and works hard like no other player I know of. He leads, involves and takes his share of wins and losses (albeit with some attitude but no one is perfect).
I would also ask to officially be inducted into the priesthood .
I have done much good and made efforts to boost the churches influence
I include a list
Led expeditions for and recovered the Harp of Hope
Humiliated Tobias at the sham trial for celestial summoning
Host regular treasure hunts using blessed treasure maps to share our ladies bounty with those who would fight Vyra and the legion
Led an assault on the temple of Tiamat and fought their champion, recovering a hammer that was reforged in blessings of Tymora and Selune and Celestial light into a halberd that was given to Fleur to aid her new path
Reclaimed the Halberd when Fleur betrayed me to the tyrant Tobias
Led efforts against the 14th legion that has uncovered information on where they reside
Led expeditions to forge a way into their pocket plane that may lead to the recovery of a potent relic
Launched the path of heroes to find heroes to join a holy march when we ressurect saint Daramos
Led efforts to prevent the 14th legion recovering the black dooms remains
Demanded the Church be given control of the historic district

He's got the street cred.
I just want to know - has he converted anyone to the faith of Tymora?
-
Put a 20k bounty on maiming verk today. Going to reward him with the title of OC and throw him a piece of loot before he gets killed, I would say it comes with the official backing of the church but no diplomatic immunity
-
Folklore and I gave him the promotion, upgraded his cloak and gave him key/token so he can access the rooms in the Tymoran shrine.
