Kheaya has participated in a competition for her battleteam, even taking 2nd place in it. Also, as her master, I see a lot of enthusiasm and desire to move forward.

<I>Jedi Hunter Mayda Ferium stood on the deck of the water skiff in the late evening sun as he rushed toward the island where the citadel was. She arrived on the island and caught a glimpse of the enormous ziggurat crafted in a dark red stone set on Doto Rock. They pulled the skiff onto the beach and Mayda approached the citadel.<BR><BR>

The entire population of the clan and many others had turned out for the ceremony. Mayda strode up the isle to the base of the stairs leading to the pinnacle of the ziggurat. All of the Apprentices, Novices, Acolytes, Protectors, Guardians, and Jedi Hunters were standing near the back of the columns in order of rank. The Equites and the Elders were near the head of the column with the highest ranked members at the head of the column closest to the citadel. <BR><BR>

Mayda saw her Master standing near the front of the platform eying his student confidently. Staying true to the code of the Brotherhood, the Master was in attendance to give witness to the achievements of their student. She was more exited than ever to have come so far and finally achieve this pinnacle in her training. Along with her Master was the entire membership of the Clan Arcona summit. <BR><BR>

Mayda stood before the summit of the clan as anxious could be. The pinnacle of the Journeyman ranks was within reach of her fingertips. It was this final choice that had to be made before truly gaining recognition within the Clan. He had to choose his darkness, his Shadowcrafting path. The ceremony was simple but the decision was life changing. <BR><BR>

The summit created a massive shadow that absorbed all of the light from the sun cloaking the entire area in darkness. The Hunter felt the shadow descend on her as the summit powered their lightsabers cutting through the darkness. All of the Arconans on the ground who possessed lightsabers activated them as well. The darkness was cut by the rainbow that was created by all of the Clan's lightsabers.<BR><BR>

Mayda felt the shadow around her like a glove and focused on it joining it's darkness with her own drawing it closer and using it to strengthen her own powers. The energy within the shadow was immense and it felt like it would shred through her body. The Hunter's control over the force held the fibers of her body together until the shadow was absorbed and light returned to the planet. The power of Shadowcrafting’s Inner Darkness was her’s to command. <BR><BR>

"Rise now, a Dark Jedi Knight," came the unanimous call from the summit. In front of the new Dark Jedi Knight hovered her lightsaber. The hilt shone in the sunlight and the Knight reached out and took it in her hand. She thumbed the activation switch and powered the blade. <BR><BR>

The humming felt natural in her hand as she turned to face the crowd and thrust the saber high into the air and shouted, over a thunderous applause:<BR><BR>

"ARCONA INVICTA!"</I><BR><BR>

Elevation Request: Dark Knight Syphoc Rilkel (6677)

Syphoc Rilkel is sweet.

Sweet Jesus, the kid's a beast! He has been a wonderful – a term I use rarely – asset to House Acclivis Draco since joining us. I must admit, I was quite skeptical when I reviewed his dossier at first: a member who has been a Guardian for well over a year. I made sure not to raise my hopes.

Honestly, I have not personally worked with Syphoc very much, but I can say that I have seen the excellent products that he spins on his loom. When he placed third in the House-wide Missio Draconis competition, hosted by Aedile Natth a'Niel Palpatine, beating ten others and only losing by a minuscule margin of three points, I was like, "Wow! That's insane!" After submitting three superb entries to the House Facilities competitions - he won all three - I ran in June, I knew that this guy was going to be a major contributor to Acclivis Draco's development and success.

He is always showing an interest in helping our House move along. He is constantly asking questions, trying to find details, and helping others while maintaining outstanding personal activity.

Syphoc's a budding flower, snatching up the sun's rays to create more energy. He's a youngster coming up well and he was blessed with a great mentor, Consul Braecen Kunar. (Even better, Brae's the Consul so he can directly recommend promotions and medals!)

Syphoc is a nice kid and I hope to work with him more in the near future. But first, we need to win a Great Jedi War - see you on the battlefield, Knight.

RevengeX Palpatine Quaestor of House Acclivis Draco Son of Palpatine

-----------------------------------*-----

It is with great honor and pride, as Syphoc's Master, that I am able to present this recommendation for his ascension to the ultimate rank within the Journeyman Class: Dark Knight. He has proven himself capable, willing and adept to the Brotherhood and shows great promise as a future cornerstone of Clan Scholae Palatinae... As such, he has earned the privilege to carry a lightsaber.

He has proven himself a capable machine of activity in the time since his most recent elevation. During that time he has collected forty five (45) Clusters of Fire, two (2) Legions of the Scholar (Creation of CSP IRC Trivia Questions), eight (8) crescents (4 emerald, 3 sapphire & 1 Amethyst). And I foresee many more great awards in his future should his engine continually burn at this high level of activity!

In addition to his excellent feats and skills as a Jedi Hunter he has completed an arduous set of tasks assigned and completed under my direct supervision. Amongst these tasks included a vivacious story of the creation of his lightsaber by utilizing the crystal of his father's blade (http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=4364). He then completed a long, winding character development piece that picked up where his previous trials left off... where he explained his joining of the Brotherhood and eventual Apprenticeship under myself (10 pages of fiction). He fulfilled the last of his assignments within the Shadow Academy, ensuring he was a well-rounded and informed Dark Knight (Leadership Fundamentals, Advanced Test of Wisdom, Force Philosophy, Krath Core, Sith Core & Obelisk Core). Participated in fifteen competitions of varying degrees of skill (Lightsaber Training, What If, Current Events, A Day In The Life, etc) that played out from the House level to Brotherhood-wide. In addition to this task, he also fulfilled a requirement that placed him in ten (10) separate gaming competitions (CSP JA Training, Gaming Nights, ICTE & SIT/SET). If that was not enough, Syphoc converted all of his character development pieces he had worked on since joining the Clan into a personal DB Wiki Page (http://www.darkjedibrotherhood.com/wiki/index.php?title=Syphoc_Rilkel).

Lastly, and most proudly, I am able to insist on this promotion due to Syphoc's diligent work on the leadership aspect of the Brotherhood. Beyond his simple duties as an Assistant Envoy (where he is beginning to fill in his knowledge of interacting with DB Members), he was assigned the tiring task of reading several Alacrity of the Commander/DB Policy Documents (Writing Recommendations, Writing Unit Reports, Welcoming New Members). After he read, and discussed, these documents he was then assigned task to prove mastery of the curriculum. He was tasked with writing a medal recc, a promo recc, faux reports (plural), writing a two page analysis on the import of welcoming new members and was assigned several 'faux' scenarios where he was to respond to a member question.

For all of these tremendous efforts and a insatiable appetite for Brotherhood knowledge... I fully recommend the elevation of this member and grant him the rite to carry his lightsaber.

Braecen Kaeth Kunar Consul of Scholae Palatinae Master
