It is a very rare thing for me to see a member rise through the ranks to Dark Jedi Knight with the intensity and speed that Artorias has done. In a club that is sometimes mired in tradition and extremely set in its ways, Artorias is a breath of fresh air for us all. He is able and willing to offer a new perspective, and he doesn't shy away from speaking his mind. These are attributes that make him perfectly suited to his Clan, and attributes that make us happy to have him.

It is therefore my very great honour to bestow upon him the rank of Knight. Congratulations Artorias: Knight of Taldryan!

Artorias hit the ground running; finishing off an insane amount of training each day. Completing one Savant, 4 Mavens; and 2 pundits within 10 days of joining. After which he delved strait into gaming within the club; achieving 10 crescents; 2 PoB's and 225 Clusters of fire; with 2 Clusters of Ice. He has worked on creating a renewed interest in Jedi Knight within the house and entire club; including working on a project to get OpenJK approved for use within the club. He took on the role of Battleteam Sergeant on Feb 20th, just 8 days after joining. As Battle Team Sergeant he has been essential to my role as BTL. He has contributed each Monday since; helping me with reports; and was able to complete a report all by himself. Each time it was ready for him to be promoted, he had completed it well in advance of his time in grade; and this promotion to knighthood was complete weeks ago. He shows signs of leadership, and an ability to mentor younger members. Something we should all look for in a DJK. His record speaks for itself; and with that I highly recommend him for the promotion of DJK, though it breaks my record. I could not find a more worthy candidate.

Artorias has not only done everything asked of him, in relation to the guidelines, but he has gone well beyond them. He has slowly opened himself to more of the club, especially in terms of gaming. He has brought forward a number of ideas and improvements to how the club in general does gaming, with many of those ideas backed up by years of experience from around the internet.

he has shown a greater willingness and drive to become a much more productive member of the club, and I can't wait to see him continue forward and reach those Equites rank with the same determination and speed he reached Knight.

Congratulations, and good luck!
