Jason is a long serving member of the Brotherhood and a dedicated and active member of the house. Though like many of us he has real life obligations, he has always found time to assist Tarentum. He has been instrumental in the house's recent growth and success, and I believe that he has more than earned a promotion to Archpriest.

Jason has served as my aedile for the last seven months and during that time he has been an active leader and an active member of the house. As a leader, Jason stepped up to the plate to help me guide Tarentum through some troubled times. The house was on the verge of closure, up to the point where the Grand Master had given an ultimatum that our continued existence would depend upon the relative success in the Horizons vendetta. Jason took the job of Aedile, knowing full well that he was possibly going to be the last Aedile of House Tarentum, and that the failure would reflect upon him. Nevertheless, he took on the job without hesitation and has since been awarded a Steel Cross for all of his efforts.

Jason helped designed “Operation: Supremacy,” the first multi-event house competition hosted by Tarentum in a long time. For his assistance, he was awarded a Dark Cross. Jason also earned a Seal of Loyalty before his appointment as Aedile and participated in numerous competitions, both before and after his appointment. He has earned several crescents. Jason also helped develop the cooperative feud “New Horizons” with House Odan-Urr in the aftermath of Horizons. While Jason's personal participation was plagued by the start of a new job in real life, he did send emails to the house during both Horizons and New Horizons, encouraging participation and success.

Asides from participating himself, encouraging the participation of others, and assisting in the administration of the house, Jason has also taken the time to be personally involved with members. Jason took over the training and development of Levathan, ultimately seeing him earn his promotions to Dark Jedi Knight. Jason also currently has two other students that he is trying to get active.

I look forward to continued work with Jason as we continue to rebuild Tarentum. We have several promising members and I know that Jason will serve as an excellent guide, teacher, and role model to them, as he does to the entire Brotherhood. If Tarentum was still a clan, he would have received the “Tarentae” name by now. A promotion to Archpriest is the least that can be done.
