It didn't even take you a month, Syrena. The day you made Knight and became the Battle Team Leader of the Knights of Allusis it became wonderfully clear your trajectory was set, and you've burnt brightly since then, driving a new direction for the Knights of Allusis, filling Discord with your bubbling personality, and stretching your wings through our various societies, while competing and relaxing with other members throughout. You've been an absolute joy to work alongside, to teach, to learn from, a model Team Leader, and a great friend altogether. Your joy for teaching others and learning, yourself, has been contagious, and I know this step into the middle ranks of The Brotherhood is just the beginning for you, and the launchpad of the light you'll bring to so many others.

Seriously though? ONE MONTH?

Ever onward, Syrena. To greater heights.

High Councillor Wolfe, 2024-12-30 03:23:37 UTC

I swear it feels like Syrena joined like four days ago. I can't tell if that's just because they have been such a positive influence in the clan that I have lost track of time, or if it's because I keep getting woken up by like 50-60 emails a night because Syrena keeps doing things.

In the month or so since she became a Knight, the nonstop activity has continued. 16 non container competitions, an ACC match, five more shadow academy courses, oh and over 10k words across 7 rp sessions.

Congratulations Syrena, your rise has been spectacular to watch.

Padawan Tisto Kingang, 2024-12-26 16:02:48 UTC

A little over a month. It has been only a little more than a month. I remember a time where these things took forever. And I'm glad those days are over. Because what we have here is a member who has come so far in four months and with, hopefully many more years to go, will continue to go even farther. Syrena, you have brought with you fresh air and sunshine simply by being yourself. Continue to do exactly that and you'll find yourself surrounded by friends. You have the talent, the potential and the drive needed to go as far as you want in this club and I look forward to being around to watch it.

And now, we get to the boring details. Tisto touched on some of them, but here we go.

Syrena has participated in a number of competitions, during which she gained no less than 6 Crescents. A Diamond, a Ruby, three Amethysts and a Sapphire. She managed to gain 30 Clusters of Ice and 12 Clusters of Graphite. If that wasn't enough, she was appointed as one of our battleteam leaders and has taken off running with it.

Syrena has more than earned this promotion and I am pleased as punch to add my own voice to these recommendations. Congrats, Syrena!

Proconsul Mihoshi Keibatsu, 2024-12-26 19:39:09 UTC

You're already beginning to make a name for yourself, Shadowolfjedi99. I have heard reports from Clan Taldryan that you have managed to accumulate 5 XP.

I have recommended you for immediate promotion.

Congratulations, and may the Force guide you, Novice,

I had a feeling that it wouldn't be long until I was back on this very page writing another recommendation for J'Kast. J'Kast has been an absolute unit. The way he has attacked activity in the Brotherhood since his return has been nothing short of spectacular. Some people take a liking to gaming with other members of the club. Others enjoy writing, whether it be fiction or roleplaying. Others still focus on graphics, or the Shadow Academy, or leveling up in the societies. J'Kast has quite literally done all of this.

In the relatively short time that he has been back as an active member of the club, J'Kast has really made a name for himself. Whether it be smaller Clan events or full scale Brotherhood-wide events, you can almost certainly count on J'Kast ending up placing within them. He has done so recently with Gorefest, Life Day III, Resource Rush, Trivia, ACC venue creation.. the list just goes on and on. His name is in my inbox constantly, and I love to see it!

So, lets break down some of his stats. J'Kast was promoted to EQ2 on 11/4/2024. Since that time, he has done the following: Participated in 149 competitions, gamed 40 times, leveled up in the societies 10 times, passed 6 SA courses (earning 2 degrees in the process), earned his first Sapphire Blade, participated in 4 fiction events and a roleplay event. On top of that, for his efforts, he has earned an absolute haul of crescents (6 Diamond, 10 Ruby, 16 Amethyst, 15 Sapphire, 7 Emerald, and a Quartz). He has earned a mass of clusters (711 Fire, 10 Ice, and 52 Graphite). He has also received a Scroll of Foundation. He has earned 685,660 credits for CSP! All that in just over a month.

I mean, these are just insane numbers, and that's not even the end of it! He's super active on Discord and recently he has shown a real interest in jumping back into leadership within the Brotherhood. My guy is doing it all, and winning at it!

We're extremely impressed, and with his drive, I have no doubt that he'll continue impressing. It wasn't that long ago that I was writing how we looked forward to elevating J'Kast to EQ2 after 18 years since his promotion to EQ1. Here we are a month and some change later, and it is my pleasure to recommend J'Kast for promotion to EQ3.

You have earned this, and I look forward to continue watching you destroy whatever obstacles are put in front of you. Keep up the amazing work, and most importantly, congratulations!

Warlord Vincent Brujah, 2024-12-21 21:05:31 UTC

Roughly 7 weeks ago, J'kast earned his EQ2 promotion and showed us what he's made of. It lit a fire in him and he's been phenomenal. Since then, my inbox explode with the amount of activity he has accomplished. He's done a bit of everything in terms of activity and he's always on the hunt for those Clusters of Fire in gaming. He's a wonderful person to interact with on discord and I'm extremely glad he's apart of the Brotherhood and the Clan. I would love to be able to work with him more in the future. He's exactly the type of member we enjoy having. He has definitely earned this promotion into the higher Equite ranks.

Thanks for everything you do, J'kast. A big congrats to you for getting to EQ3 in such a relatively short time. Holiday drinks on you!

Empress Rayne Palpatine, 2024-12-21 17:38:45 UTC

One Hundred and Eight Clusters of Fire, Three Crescents with Sapphire Stars, and a Promotion in the Grand Master's Royal Guard, Neko's earned all of this and more along the way since their last promotion, as well as competing in 10 competitions, 2 of which being containers. You've done a lot in short order and certainly earned this promotion, burning away the midnight oil, gaming, and showing us what the cooperative spirit is all about. I look forward to what future promotions are on the horizon for you Neko, and what competitions and games you'll burn through next.

Ever onwards!

High Councillor Wolfe, 2024-12-20 02:26:03 UTC

Archpriest Quentinshadows has reached the required 23000 XP to reach the rank of Equite 3.

Lord Muz Ashen Keibatsu, 2024-12-17 17:08:14 UTC

What can I say about our lone Quaestor of the Clan? Pretty easy really! Quentin is transitioning very nobly into one of the Clan’s seasoned veterans since taking over House Shar Dakhan. Quentin is a great asset to the team and we definitely look forward to seeing all the upcoming accolades he will acquire during his career.

Here are just a few of those accolades, since his last promotion Quentin has participated in 144 comps, and Co/Org’d fourteen comps. Over at the Shadow Academy he has passed sixteen courses earning himself three Maven, a Savant and a Pundit degree. He has earned thirty five Crescents and racked up eighty Clusters during this promotion cycle. He also has been busy with ancillary duties within the Club earning himself a Scroll of Indoctrination, Scroll of Foundation, a Seal of Loyalty and a Seal of Transcendence.

It is with great honor and pleasure to announce that Archpriest Quentinshadows has reached the required 23000 XP to reach the rank of Equite 3. Congratulations Quention on this well deserved promotion to Seer! CONGRATS SIR!!!!

Adept DarkHawk Sadow, 2024-12-17 16:48:33 UTC

There's a lot that Quentin has done on the surface in the clan. Running comps, collecting crescents, shadow academy courses. But true to form, I'm more focused on the other things, the pieces that don't show up neatly on a spreadsheet.

Quentin is our sole remaining Quaestor, and has worked with DarkHawk and I on a new clan structure that would change that to a Magistrate. His insights and labor has been quite useful in larger discussions about the future and organization of our clan. He's also always one of the first to sign up for role-plays in the clan, helping DarkHawk and I get everyone adjusted in the conversion from our favored runons to the new format and rules of the RP. He presses people, old and new, encouraging them to come out of their comfort zones a little bit and try new activities. These are the things that I appreciate the most about Quentin. The behaviours and attitude of service that will help sustain Naga Sadow and help ensure that it stays alive in the future.

In the activity, he's earned the promotion to Equite 3, another step closer to the Elder rank that I know he will become. But in his behaviours, in his leadership, in his labors, he has more than earned my respect. Thank you for all that you have done, Q. Congratulations and well earned.

Lord Muz Ashen Keibatsu, 2024-12-17 17:07:25 UTC

Well I'll be, who'd have thought I'd be writing a second recommendation for you on the heels of your Kukri? I've already spoken to your infectious energy, your push to engage and teach our members, and how much of a pain in the influential you are within Clan Odan-Urr. How you push us to commit, strive, and create more, and how your dedication has countlessly paid off, and here it is, again. I know by now you've got to be exhausted with my walls of text, and it wouldn't do to let me have all of the honors, barking your ear off.

I will leave you with this though, your skills with people, constant wit, and planning have been a driving force in today's Odan-Urr, and I hope to cultivate that same energy in the future, using you as one of our prime examples, showcasing that infectious energy and drive you've given, as both a member and leader, to better the Community not only just the Clan. This promotion is well earned, not just by virtue of statistical experience, but by learned and lived experience, leading from the front, and making a splash amongst the membership.

Ever onward, Tisto. To greater heights.

High Councillor Wolfe, 2024-12-09 18:11:17 UTC

I'll take "Awesome members" for 300, Alex.

For me, Tisto sits firmly in the diligent and hard working members category in Odan-Urr. I haven't had the pleasure of working with him for long as a fellow Quaestor, but what I have seen and experienced is a thoughtful and diligent leader who loves his unit, be it House or Clan, and busts his butt to put out good content and entertain his members. He knows what they want and what they enjoy, what's considered fun in his House, and he has started doing those very things from the start. He does a lot to keep his members engaged and enjoying their stay in House Hoth, and has even managed to bring out a lot of the old guard from formaldehyde.

He has my respect and my confidence in his abilities. Congrats on your promotion, buddy. It's most definitely well earned.

Boss Morgan Sorenn, 2024-12-06 10:34:59 UTC

Here I am again, for the fourth time, writing a promotion recommendation for the biggest pain in the ..... whoops, I mean one of the best Members COU and Hoth have ever had. Knowing Tisto for the last eight years, I have seen him go from an insane ball of energy and ideas to hundreds of pages of emails that tested my patience almost every day. For those first days of working with him as my BTL, I wasn't sure if he would make it far in the club but as shocked as I am to say it he is a much more mature and seasoned leader than I have ever expected. I am very proud to have him lead the best house in the club. and again for my 4th time Congratulations my friend on Equite 4 you deserve it and I look forward to seeing what is next for Hoth with you in charge. Happily passes the torch to you.

Ghost Edgar Drachen, 2024-12-07 06:06:00 UTC

Every day I watch as more and more members of the Wolfepack race towards me, catching up to the goalposts I set in the Brotherhood, and with each one who meets them and charges through I greet them with a smile, having watched as my friends each brought their own light to the club and community, shining in their own way, bringing their own unique skills, ideas, and personalities and sharing them with the collective. Asani, or Rin, is one such example, bringing her appreciation for art, digital media, and animation to our corner of The Brotherhood and back when she first joined, immediately inserting herself into the community with her infectious and rowdy attitude.

While life has consumed her and kept her on her toes, she's still carved out a good chunk of time for the Brotherhood, taking the time to check in, game, and take part in competitions regularly, even if she's not a constant in Discord because of her own discord in the real world. Since her last promotion Asani has organized 2 competitions, co-organized another 7, participated in 76 competitions, 16 of which were container competitions, taken part in 29 gaming activities earning herself 195 Clusters of Fire, joined in 11 Roleplays, writing a total of 15,237 words, and bringing home 30 Clusters of Ice. She also earned 31 Clusters of Graphite for her part in organizing and taking part in graphics competitions, as well as her Freelance Art Submissions. She has also earned a Sapphire Blade, a Crescent with Diamond Star, 4 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 2 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 6 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 6 Crescents with Emerald Stars, 2 Crescents with Topaz Stars, and a Crescent with Quartz Star, as well as a grand total of 11 Society updoots, hopping her way up three ranks in the Grand Master's Royal Guard, a singular place in the Inquisitorius, three placements within the Shroud Syndicate, and rolled her way through 4 ranks of the Envoy Corps (Participant).

The legend of the Mandobunny continues to grow as she keeps us on our toes, wondering where and how she's going to pop up and show out, with what great competitions or pieces of art she's going to throw down, or just what is going to pique her curiosity or anger next.

Ever onward, Asani!
