I am delighted to announce that Novice Vaardock is now eligible for promotion to the rank of Acolyte.

First of all, Vaardock is both a regular in #arcona, and has registered on the DJB Forum, showing a willingness to communicate with his fellow Dark Jedi.

Also, despite having joined only a few days ago, Vaardock has already completed a competition; one of the events in the House Galeres event.

Finally, he has shown an excellent grasp of the key aspects of Dark Brotherhood membership, having passed DB Basics with an excellent score of 91%.

Congratulations, Vaardock. House Galeres and Clan Arcona await to see you continue your excellent start.

I am pleased to declare that Dalk Darklighter is eligible for promotion to Guardian. His recent excellent activity, especially in Dark Crusade, is yet another excellent example for Arconans young and old to follow.

Firstly, Dalk has been awarded two Merit awards, these being a Steel Cross and Dark Cross. These show that he has been consistently active and is a valuable member of both his house and clan. He is also frequently active within #arcona, joining with the banter and discussions on a regular basis.

Dalk has also shown himself to be an active and interested scholar, passing his order core with an excellent 89%, as well as GMRG History with an impressive 85%. Both of these scores show a good knowledge of the course material and understanding what it is to be a Krath and to be a Guardsman. In addition to this, Dalk has shown an interest in character development by starting on a character fiction. So far, this has reached and gone beyond the requisite 2 pages.

Finally, Dalk has not only competed in 5 competitions, including several Dark Crusade events, but he has also run a competition himself, a trivia for House Qel-Droma’s ongoing event ‘A House Divided’. This shows an interest in getting involved with the key aspects of the Brotherhood as well as a willingness to complete basic activities.

Congratulations, Dalk. It’s been a decade but you’ve made it. I look forward to 2023 for your next promotion. ;)
