Our recently completed Plagueis Pro Bowl clan feud offered all of our members the chance to step up into a high stakes, high activity competitive environment. Doku stepped up to the plate in a big way and submitted entries to 22 of the possible 30 competitions, of which he placed in three. Overall since his last recognition on May 9th, he has entered 29 total competitions, earned 5 crescents (2 Amethyst, 1 Sapphire, 1 Emerald, and one Topaz), earned 16 Clusters of Fire, and two Clusters of Ice. Doku's efforts prove that he is one of Clan Plagueis' best, and it is my absolute pleasure to recommend this extremely deserving member for this award.

Congratulations, Doku!

Our recently completed Plagueis Pro Bowl clan feud offered all of our members the chance to step up into a high stakes, high activity competitive environment. Tra'an Reith di Plagia showed why the Sons of Plagueis are among the best in the clan, submitting entries to 29 of the possible 30 competitions, and earning placements in three events (2 first place and one second place). Overall since his last recognition on May 9th, he has entered 39 total competitions, earned four crescents (1 Ruby, 2 Amethyst, and 1 Emerald), earned 10 Clusters of Fire and 12 Clusters of Earth through Brotherhood and competition gaming events, and five Clusters of Ice. Tra'an's high levels of activity prove that the di Plagia are the standard bearers for the Clan, both in name and in action. It is my pleasure to recommend him for this award.

Congrats, Tra'an!

The recently completed Clan Plagueis Pro Bowl gave our members the chance to step up into a high stakes, high activity competitive environment. As always, Alishu did not disappoint. During the event, he submitted entries to 24 of the possible 30 competitions, of which he placed in seven events (3 first place, one second place, and 3 third place finishes). Overall since his last recognition on April 29th, he has entered 43total competitions, earned 11 crescents (3 Ruby, 2 Amethyst, 4 Sapphire, 1 Emerald, and 1 Topaz), earned 47 Clusters of Fire and 5 Clusters of Earth for his gaming efforts, and 5 Clusters of Ice across 3 fiction activities.

On top of all that activity, Alishu has served as a Magistrate to the Headmaster for the past two months, grading, reviewing and validating Shadow Academy courses, of which he has passed 14 earning one degree. Alishu's efforts led to the overall success of his team, and the Pro-Bowl overall. It is my pleasure to recommend him for this award!

Well done, Alishu!

Our recently completed Plagueis Pro Bowl clan feud offered all of our members the chance to step up into a high stakes, high activity competitive environment. Malice showed just how strong of a competitor she is by submitting to 20 of the 30 possible competitions, earning placements in six of the events (2 First place, 2 Second Place, and 2 Third Place). Overall since her last recognition on January 30th, she has entered 38 total competitions earned 13 crescents (3 Ruby, 4 Amethyst, 4 Sapphire, and 2 Emerald), and an incredible 31 Clusters of Ice. Malice is one of Plagueis' best members, and though she hasn't been in the club long, she carries herself both in words and action as a seasoned veteran. It is my absolute pleasure to recommend her for this award.

Congratulations, Malice!

Abadeer Taasii is without a doubt one of the top Journeymen in Clan Plagueis. During the recent Clan Plagueis Pro-Bowl, Abadeer proved that he is capable of standing toe-to-toe with our seasoned vets in just about every single activity available. Over the course of and extremely fast-paced three week event, Abadeer stood out as one of only five members of the Clan to complete all 30 events for the Pro-Bowl. He earned placements in six of the events, taking three first-place finishes and three third-place finishes. He also earned third place overall for the individual scoring.

Abadeer's activity is not limited to Clan events. Since his last recognition in April, Abadeer has participated in a whopping 45 competitions, earning 13 crescents (1 Diamond, 4 Ruby, 4 Amethyst, 2 Sapphire, and 2 Emerald), garnered 43 Clusters of Fire and 125 Clusters of Earth from Gaming and 16 Clusters of Ice from writing.

Abadeer has proven in his relatively short tenure in the DJB that he is truly a force to be reckoned with. He is more than deserving of this award, and I am honored to recommend him for it.

Congratulations, Abadeer! Keep up the great work.

To go along with re-writing the Martial Arts forms for the Dark Jedi Brotherhood, I wanted to create a visual reference guide to help illustrate each form. This not only helps give members a better idea of what each form looks like in practice, but would also help break up the wall-of-text of information which can be intimidating to newer members or people like me who prefer their books/manuals to have lots of pictures.

Zehsaa is an active member of the art community, so I asked her if she'd be interested in this project. I sent her an initial email with my request/idea, a simple list. She took that list, listened to my feedback/requests, and created something really special and unique. Each form is not only illustrated in a cohesive, unified style, but also ties into star wars by featuring a Twi'lek, a Wookie, and a Togruta, three of the most identifiable aliens in the SW verse. This user-generated content was made specifically for the DB, giving it a whole extra level of meaning and coolness. While it's harder to quantify artwork created over words typed, I believe that this project is worthy of recognition with the Anteian Cross.

You can see the final spread of 11 drawings (scaled as requested) here. You will see them in the Martial Arts Forms Wikipedia as well.

Thanks again Z for taking on this project. I appreciate it, and the Martial Arts Forms article does to!
