Primary reason

What can I say. This has been quite a journey. In the two months since joining the Dark Jedi Brotherhood and Clan Naga Sadow, Janos has continued to forge his own path. Everything this Journeyman has worked on, he has strode to do so with excellence. He has competed in thirty-six competitions, twenty-four of which have been since his promotion to Acolyte about a month ago. His efforts have borne him results, winning crescents in not one, not two, but nine competitions- six of which have been since achieving the rank of Acolyte.

The man has shown dedication in both gaming and fiction, netting one hundred and eighty-five Clusters of Fire, five Clusters of Earth, and nine Clusters of Ice. The kicker to this? All of these except one Cluster of Ice have been since achieving Acolyte. I don’t know about anybody else but I think that speaks to his drive for self-improvement! He has also fought hard in Jedi Academy, improving in leaps and bounds- helping him to achieve Rank IV in the Grand Master's Royal Guard.

Outside of pretty baubles and crescents, Janos has also worked to expand his character’s history in greater detail, writing over 3000 words of fiction and creating a quality wiki page. He has also engaged studies in the Shadow Academy, completing Leadership courses in both Competitions and Awards. He has gone on to apply that knowledge to use in the creation of content for his fellow club members. The ticker may not count it until it is completed, but the three competitions he has running at the writing of this recommendation tell me that Janos has a desire to do more than just consume.

So a person may look at all the above and say “okay so he completed the requirement for Knight. Good on him.” Speaking personally, I have to say that these factors and the time that I have spent with Janos Stormwind tell me this man could have a very long history with the club. Good times have been had in correspondence both privately in email and publicly among the Clan in Telegram. I can say it warms my heart to see the work he has put forward being rewarded. He has also like many here helped me to forge happy memories, and for that I thank him. I can say I wholeheartedly look forward to the future efforts of this fellow in the days to come, and I hope I will be permitted to help write part of his next promotion to come.

Rise as a Knight, my brother.

Additional reasons

Janos has become a common sight in the Telegram CNS channel. Always having something to say that contributes to the topic, or asking questions to further his knowledge within the Brotherhood. It is with great pleasure to see another hard working member become Knighted!

I believe every member who has completed their journey to Knight has more to offer the Brotherhood, and Janos is definitely someone I would keep an eye on in the future. He is not afraid to ask questions, or come with suggestions to improve aspects of the Clan. It's this kind of attitude that gets stuff done and I hope he does not lose this passion for the Club.

Keep up the good work and I look forward to your EQ1 promotion Janos!

Janos came to me when he first joined, and stated that he wanted to use the DJB platform as a means of improving his LARP character. I honestly had no idea what to tell him, never looked at it from that angle. Together we worked through the details of what it means to be in the DJB, and he quickly took a liking to it.

From writing, to gaming, to the SA, Janos has taken part in all of it and seems to be destined to become one of those members who rises to greatness in the Brotherhood. As a famous Sith Lord once said, 'I'll be watching your career with great interest.'

Congratulations on your promotion to Knight and becoming a full member of the Brotherhood Janos!
