Event History

It is an absolute pleasure and honor to recommend Agate Gua'lara for promotion to Equite 4! Reaching this rank is a significant milestone in any member's journey through the Brotherhood, representing years of dedication, accomplishment, and continued contributions to our community. Since their last promotion on February 3, 2023, Agate has built an impressive record that makes this advancement thoroughly deserved.

Over this period, Agate has participated in an impressive 74 competitions, with 65 substantive entries when containers and brackets are excluded. What makes this accomplishment particularly noteworthy is their dedication to the creative side of the Brotherhood. Of those entries, 39 were graphics competitions, demonstrating a sustained commitment to visual creativity and the many opportunities our club provides for members to express themselves. They have also participated in 19 timed competitions, 6 regular competitions, and 1 manual competition, showing a willingness to engage across different competition formats.

That creative dedication is further reflected in the staggering 226 Clusters of Graphite Agate has earned during this period. That is an incredible amount of creative output and recognition, and a testament to the time, effort, and talent they have continued to bring to the Brotherhood. Their contributions have also been recognized through an impressive collection of awards, including an Amethyst Kukri, Sapphire Blade, Steel Cross, two Gold Novae, and a Silver Nova. Add to that 37 Crescents across multiple levels, including 28 Emerald Stars, and it becomes clear that Agate's efforts have been consistently recognized and appreciated.

Beyond their competition activity, Agate has continued to invest in their own development, completing five additional Shadow Academy courses. They have also earned five Seals of Transcendence, three Seals of Animosity, and a Seal of Loyalty along the way.

What stands out to me most is the sustained nature of these accomplishments. Nearly four years have passed since Agate's previous promotion, and throughout that time they have continued to find ways to participate, create, compete, and contribute. Advancement at this level should represent more than simply reaching an experience threshold. It should recognize the body of work a member has built and the dedication they have demonstrated along the way. Agate has certainly done that.

Equite 4 is a tremendous achievement, and one that I am delighted to see Agate reach. Their dedication to the creative side of our community, their extensive competition record, and the recognition they have earned make this promotion an easy one to support.

Congratulations, Agate! Thank you for everything you have contributed to the Brotherhood, and here's to everything still to come. You have absolutely earned this!

Corsair Koda Kendis, competition organizer, roleplayer, former Quaestor, and dedicated servant of Clan Arcona. Since his last promotion on April 2, 2023, Koda has built an impressive record of activity and service across the Brotherhood. He's participated in hundreds of competitions, contributed thousands of words to our fictional universe, climbed through numerous society ranks, and taken on several leadership responsibilities along the way. Reaching Equite 4 is an important milestone, and I think his record demonstrates exactly why he's earned it.

Let's start with the numbers. Koda has organized 11 competitions and co-organized another 18, while participating in an impressive 267 competitions (215 excluding containers and brackets). His participation covers a wide range of activities, including 78 timed competitions, 53 manual competitions, 40 regular competitions, 21 gaming competitions, and 20 graphics competitions. He's also contributed to 65 gaming activities outside of competitions. On the creative side, Koda has completed an ACC battle and contributed another 14,707 words across 21 roleplaying sessions and one DM session. That's over 15,000 words of creative contributions when including his ACC work! His efforts have earned him 1,541 Clusters of Fire, 34 Clusters of Ice, and 133 Clusters of Graphite.

His award collection is equally impressive. Since his last promotion, Koda has earned an Amethyst Kukri, 3 Grand Crosses, an Anteian Cross, a Silver Nova, and a Bronze Nova. He's also collected 4 Crescents with Diamond Stars, 7 Ruby, 10 Amethyst, 9 Sapphire, 12 Emerald, 11 Topaz, and 4 Quartz. Add in 2 Seals of Loyalty, 2 Seals of Transcendence, 13 Seals of Animosity, and a Scroll of Foundation, and it's clear that his contributions haven't gone unnoticed. He's also continued his education, completing 3 Shadow Academy courses and earning 2 degrees. His development within the Brotherhood's societies has been particularly noteworthy, with 18 society rank-ups, including 5 within the Grand Master's Royal Guard, 1 in the Inquisitorius, 3 in the Shroud Syndicate, and 6 in the Envoy Corps. He's also participated in 3 ACC battles and earned a total of 2,727 net medal XP during this period, with 21,544 XP gained before accounting for consumed XP.

Of course, Koda's contributions extend well beyond his personal activity. He's held several positions of responsibility throughout his time at Equite 3, including Magistrate to the Consul, Proconsul, and Magistrate to the Regent. These positions gave him opportunities to support the leadership of the Brotherhood and contribute behind the scenes to the wider organization. Most notably, he served as Quaestor of House Galeres from March through December 2025, spending nine months helping lead and support the House.

During his time as Quaestor, Koda worked alongside Bril to develop the Pathfinders for Galeres, helping expand the House's fictional identity and establish new opportunities for member participation. This wasn't simply an exercise in developing lore; the two followed through by organizing a series of competitions centered around the Pathfinders, bringing their creative work directly to the membership. He also contributed to the broader narrative developments taking place within Arcona, helping us explore a new direction for the Clan and its place within Dajorra. While his time as Quaestor eventually came to an end due to circumstances outside the Brotherhood, the work he put into the House and the initiatives he helped establish remain worthwhile contributions.

Koda has also made a substantial financial contribution to the Clans, earning 1,077,740 credits for Arcona and another 316,490 for Taldryan. That's nearly 1.4 million credits contributed across his time at the Equite 3 rank. Between his competition organization, participation, creative work, society progression, and leadership service, he's demonstrated a willingness to contribute in just about every area of the Brotherhood.

Reaching Equite 4 is no small accomplishment, and I believe Koda has more than demonstrated his readiness for the next step. He's shown that he can contribute as an individual, support his fellow members, and take on the responsibilities of leadership when called upon. His record reflects not just activity, but a sustained commitment to the Brotherhood over several years.

Congratulations on reaching Equite 4, Koda! Here's to the next chapter of your journey. Well earned!

The rank of Journeyman 4, or Knight as most of the Brotherhood knows it, is a recognized stepping stone and accomplishment. Since their last promotion Aelan has been active on the gaming front, earning 22 clusters of Fire and a GMRG society rank up. They have participated in 14 competitions and even achieved placement, earning a crescent with ruby star. Through these activities they have reached the required 3600 XP to reach the rank of Journeyman 4.

I'd say that I hate to say I told you so, but that would be a lie. I love saying I told you so! 13 short days ago I told you that Zekk was on a legendary run when he made JM4 in 9 short days. Take a step back and look just a little further and it's even more impressive, He made JM3 only 2 days before that! Today, I'm back again to tell you that Zekk has done it again! In 13 days Zekk has taken the necessary action and earned the necessary XP to earn EQ1. In less than a month, Zekk has gone from JM2 to EQ1. It's absurd. Look at what this guy has done in 13 days.

• 44 Competitions participated in
• 4 Gaming activities
• 1 Fiction activity
• 16 Shadow Academy exams passed
• 2 Shadow Academy degrees earned
• 1 Society rank up (GMRG)
• 1 Grand Cross
• 7 Various Crescents
• 52 Clusters of Fire
• 6 Clusters of Ice
• 1 Scroll of Foundation
• 269,450 Credits earned for CSP

Again, on top of all of this, he's been one of our most active members on Discord. He recently joined a new Clan level RP, and I can't wait to see what he does there. Zekk is just constantly doing something. It is a seriously impressive run that he is on. For my next prediction? It won't be long until we're awarding this guy his first sacramental award. Until then, congratulations on another promotion! Welcome to the Equite ranks! We are so very proud of your hard work.

Since her last promotion, Vaersie has shown commendable activity in both the gaming and graphics spheres. She participated in eight competitions, earning from them crescents with sapphire and emerald stars. Seven gaming matches netted her 59 Clusters of Fire. A lovely scene she drew for the Flashpoint event also gave her six Clusters of Graphite and a level in the Shroud Syndicate. Vaersie is a credit to House Hoth with a bright future ahead of her. Well done, apprentice!

On 9/15/2008, Flelm was promoted to EQ1. This promotion has been over 18 years in the making! Flelm returned to Clan Scholae Palatinae after several years of 8/31/2026. Since that time he has been an absolute whirlwind of activity. It may have been 18 years since his last promotion, but the majority of the work that got him over the hump and to EQ2 was done in this very short period of time since he returned. It's been amazing and inspiring to watch, and we on the Summit couldn't be much prouder of him. Let's take a look at what Flelm has accomplished since his last promotion:

• 80 competitions participated in
• 12 Legacy PvP matches
• 8 Gaming activities
• 77 Shadow Academy exams passed
• 13 Shadow Academy degrees earned
• 14 Society rank ups
• 1 Grand Cross
• 1 Steel Cross
• 1 Anteian Cross
• 1 Dark Cross
• 8 varying Crescents
• 74 Total Clusters (Fire and Ice)
• 3 Scrolls of Foundation
• 1 Seal of Loyalty
• 3 Seals of the Crusader
• 242,300 credits earned for CSP

That is an absolute mountain of activity! Flelm has put in the work, and we're so happy that he chose to do so within the confides of Clan Scholae Palatinae. He is part of our crazy, little family and we look forward to seeing what he brings to the table next. For now, it is my honor to recommend him for the rank of EQ2! Congratulations Flelm! Drinks are on you!

Mex has been a solid member of the Brotherhood since January 29, 2022. That is almost five years now. His last promotion was on July 25, 2022, so it has been a long time coming.

In the assessed period he has kept up a strong level of activity. He entered 98 competitions (60 when you take out containers and brackets). Those entries covered a good mix of types: containers, manual, timed, gaming, and others. He earned 2 Diamond crescents, 2 Ruby, 1 Amethyst, and 2 Sapphire. On the gaming side he completed 18 activities and brought in 126 Clusters of Fire. He also put in solid work on the fiction and roleplaying side with 7 fiction activities and a lot of roleplaying. That includes 6 sessions as a player for over 10,800 words and 1 session as DM for about 1,600 words. Those efforts earned him 25 Clusters of Ice.

He has moved up steadily in the societies with 12 rank-ups. He has been active in the Envoy Corps as both a participant (6 times) and an organizer (3 times), and he has also advanced in the Aurora Collegium, Grand Master’s Royal Guard, and Inquisitorius. He passed one Shadow Academy course as well.

His awards during this time include 3 Grand Crosses, 2 Steel Crosses, 1 Anteian Cross, 12 Seals of Ascension, 2 Seals of Transcendence, a Seal of Loyalty, and a Seal of Animosity. All of that activity has also brought in 349,480 credits for Clan Arcona.

Mex is a reliable member who shows up, puts in the work, and helps the Clan. He has earned the next step in elevation, and I am honored to write this rec to promote him to Equite 2. Congratulations, Mex!
