Since his promotion to Novice, Kyane has worked upon a variant of activities. He passed the ACC Initiates Course and has an approved Character Sheet, he has completed his Character History and competed in a House Competition - Rebellion!. Kyane has also been on IRC in #scholae and chatted with house and clan mates. Congratulations Kyane! Keep up the great work.

In the 4 months since Raiju became QUA of House Tridens, he has been a symbol of both change and stability. Raiju has proposed and implemented several innovative projects (Project X, Tridens Chronicles, etc.) to improve the House and has also leveraged his experience to help House Tridens weather several staffing changes. He, along with his staff, have brought more than a dozen new members into the House and Clan and strive to create an encouraging atmosphere of progress for his House. He is also mentoring several junior members to become Knights.

In addition to being an exemplary House leader, Raiju has also become a strong and outspoken leader for ClanTarentum. He had participated in numerous leadership discussions regarding the future of the Clan and proposed changes in membership advancement and the master-student program. Raiju has brought a sensible and logical approach to these discussions and I hope that he will continue to evolve into a great leader he can be, not just for House Tridens, but Clan Tarentum as a whole.

Lastly, on top of all his fine work as a leader, Raiju has remained an active participant in several competitions and events. He participated and placed in the Clan competition "settling Home", created and won Trivia events and participated in the Independence Games.

Four months is a long time for any member of Raiju's caliber to have gone without recognition of his efforts and achievements. I hope that this promotion and my sincere thanks as a mentor and friend will repay even a fraction of the effort and dedication he has given, and will continue to give, his House and Clan. Congratulations, Sith Warrior Raiju; you have more than earned it.

Recommendation for promotion of Tra’an Reith to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight

Throughout his short, but successful Dark Brotherhood career, Tra’an Reith has shown me, both as his ProConsul and his Master, that he is the kind of member that Clans dream of. He came into Scholae with unwavering loyalty, without even knowing fact #1 about anyone or the direction in which the Clan was headed. He simply jumped feet first into gaining power and prestige for himself, his House, and his Clan. For that alone, Tra’an is to be commended.

He has successfully completed all the requirements for Dark Jedi Knight as laid down before him by myself. He has exhibited the necessary skill set that the Clan has put forth as the needed tasks and skills required of all Knights of Scholae. He has shown his strengths in Run-Ons, displayed his strengths in leadership and administration, and even worked on his weaknesses in the ACC. His motivation and drive are second to none and Tra’an reminds me of a young me back in the days.

To say Tra’an is my proudest accomplishment is an understatement. I have graduated several Apprentices to Knight status, yet only a few show the staying power of Hunter Reith. Recently, he was tabbed to assist me with the administration of the Master-Student Program of Scholae, something he quickly outgrew to become the Rollmaster of House Acclivis Draco. His tenacity and attention to detail will serve him well in his first House Summit position

Tra’an, while contributing to his overall success, had also been a source of grounding and counsel for me. He gives me a fresh voice and opinion on a variety of issues, leading to me appointing him to oversee the research of the Scholae artifacts, no small task for a shoot first Obelisk. Tra’an took the task in stride, even making the tough decisions to tell some members who ranked higher than him that their research was insufficient. The team is still buried in research, with most of the heavy thinking and research being tasked to Tra’an junior comrade, Korroth, after Tra’an realized that his depth of research had gone above and beyond what was asked of him.

By exhibiting all the attributed and characteristics of a Knight of Scholae, it is my honor to release Tra’an from his training obligation and proclaim him a Dark Knight of Palatinae.

Congratulations my Apprentice. The time has come to show your mettle on your own.

~Exarch Lucien Kaeth ProConsul of Scholae Palatinae Master to Tra’an Reith

I still have the email entitled "Dark Brotherhood Dossier Activated! Welcome, Tra'an Reith!" in my inbox. It's a beautiful sight, really. Time just flies...

Tra'an Reith joined the Dark Jedi Brotherhood during my ninth month as Quaestor of House Acclivis Draco, and he has been one of the steadiest members that I have ever known. His determination to succeed, his desire to achieve, and his laidback attitude have allowed him to reach the threshold of Dark Jedi Knight. In the past, some of his peers have simply been booted over the edge and into the land of Knighthood after being outstandingly active for a relatively short period of time. With Tra'an, the Clan Summit and I decided to take a different approach: he must surpass himself.

This young Jedi Hunter had been constantly growing and pushing both our expectations and his own contributions to the House and Clan forward and up. Several times, I have approached his Master, Proconsul Lucien Kaeth, about promoting Tra'an, but we decided to wait, which was a test for his patience and our patience. Now, Tra'an has shown that he embodies everything that Clan Scholae Palatinae "Core Values" hope to show: "Integrity First, Service Before Self, Excellence in All We Do."

His leadership in the "Clan Artifacts" project has been extraordinary, and I know that the final product will be absolutely phenomenal. His participation in nearly every large event has been exemplary, from the Eighth Great Jedi War to the Independence Games 2008. If every member tried as hard as he, Acclivis Draco, and Scholae Palatinae as a whole, would be completely unstoppable in absolutely everything.

After nine months as a member of the Brotherhood, Tra'an is ready to strut across and don the robes of a Knight. As he steps into his new role as Rollmaster, I hope to show him the reins of the House in order to introduce him to the aspect of the Brotherhood that few Knights have seen and embraced. As I have said numerous times before, Tra'an has the ability and dedication that will allow him to become one of the greatest members that this Clan has ever seen.

Rise and start welcoming new members to the House, Knight.

-- RevengeX Palpatine Quaestor of House Acclivis Draco

It's not very often I promote a member from GRD to JH with little "regular" activity behind them for merit but Elols has never been a regular member of Tridens. Since an early start, he has served as a leader within this house and since his last promotion he served as BTL for a solid three and a half months before the teams were removed. During this time he did an extremely important job of running 3 different team competitions, develping team fiction and background informations as well as encouraging his members to strive forward as well as giving them the tools to advance themselves. Because of his role here, he was a great candidate for the Rollmaster position and I haven't regretted selecting him yet. He's not only timely with his introductions but informative and regularly involved with the early development of our house's recruits. Lately he's even branched out and ran a house competition and fair success, getting a some humourous submissions for his graphic comp of the Clan's castle. Lastly, in work with Szord he has also managed to provide Tridens with graphics for the House's wiki page and been an informative and greatly welcomed advisor to the House summit. For his great work as BTL and now RM, I recommend that Elols be promote to the rank of Jedi Hunter.
