Battlelord (Equite 3)
Requested by
Emperor Thran Occasus-Palpatine
Primary reason

I first met Brujah many years ago when I joined Clan Scholae Palatinae. Time passed and eventually Brujah had to depart for the Rogues. This is a story many of us know well. It's not often that we get our friends back from the void of roguehood, but it's even rarer to see members return and absolutely attack and destroy every activity laid in front of them. Brujah has done just that.

Since his return, this man has been a veritable tornado of participation, sucking up and spitting out everything in his way. Brujah is gaming, participating in the ACC, has studied up on the new way of the DB in the Shadow Academy and is doing just about every competition around. In our relatively recent Clan event, Brujah competed in nearly all the competitions and placed 4th overall. The man has stacks of things he's done in the last two months and he shows no signs of slowing down. It blows me away. I could list everything, but what really matters is the spirit that he brings to CSP.

Brujah has quickly reintegrated within the community of CSP and is a regular contributor to our chats. In that time, he has been welcoming and warm. He's quick to share a funny gif or crack a joke. That tells me that not only is he crushing it on the activity side, but he's having fun doing it. That spirit of comeraderie and fun is exactly the type of mentality that ought to be held by our upper level Equites. I can think of noone that better embodies combination of experience and excitement that is the Equite ranks than Brujah.

I cannot say enough just how awesome it is to see Brujah excel in this new era of the Brotherhood. As Consul, It is always an honor and a privilege to be able to promote a member for all their hard work, but this one feels special to watch. I am so excited to be a witness to his return to Clan Scholae Palatinae. It is with great honor that I congratulate Brujah on promotion to Equite 3. Keep up the excellent work! Drinks are on you!

Additional reasons

Our very own Vincent Brujah has been a whirlwind of activity since he returned to the Clan 2 months ago. He's frequently chatting on discord with other members not only in CSP but across the Brotherhood at large, making an impact and showing he can integrate with others easily. It's been wonderful to see my email inbox explode with the amount of activity he's accomplished since his return. He's been tearing through the Shadow Academy like no other, 50 courses and 11 degrees. That's astonishing and more than earns some recognition. He's participated in almost 100 competitions earning multiple crescents, ranked up 16 times in various societies across the board, earned a sapphire blade, and even started writing both in fictions and the ACC. It's such an honor to see a former DCM in action. It's always a privilege to see a member, new or old, simply having fun in the Brotherhood. For all you have given, it's now time that we give back in the form of a well-earned promotion. Congratulations Brujah! Drinks and fire are yours this day!

Primary reason

Mandalorian Legion has reached the required 2500 XP to reach the rank of Journeyman 4.

Eminent Ikarri Itinen, 2024-03-15 03:06:47 UTC
Additional reasons

"Knighthood" is perhaps one of the most important milestones a member can achieve in our club. It signifies a commitment to the club and a willingness to contribute to its long-term success. I am particularly honored to have had the privilege of mentoring Legion from his initial joining to this: his elevation to Knighthood.

Legion has been great to work with throughout his journey. He has demonstrated a great attitude, a willingness to learn, and a genuine desire to be an active member of the gaming community. Legion has consistently made time to participate in events, assist other members, and contribute to discussions in Clan Vizsla.

I am incredibly proud to add to Legion’s recommendation for Journeyman 4. It is a well-deserved recognition of his hard work. I do not doubt that he will continue to be a valuable asset to the club in the years to come. Congratulations, Legion!

Vynn Salm, 2024-03-15 02:19:17 UTC

Since Legion’s last promotion, he has participated in 27 competitions, submitted 36 gaming activities, and managed to acquire a Steel Cross, six separate crescents, and 151 Clusters of Earth. All while remaining an active and engaged member of Vizsla’s channels on Discord. With all of this in mind, it is my honor to recommend Legion for promotion to the rank of Knight.

On behalf of Vizsla, thank you for your service, Legion, and we look forward to your continued contributions.

TonyWhispers, you continue to impress. You're growing more competent each day and you will surely rival the Council when the time is right. You have met the requirements for promotion, and a recommendation has been filed.

I will continue to watch your progress, TonyWhispers, but my direct intervention in your promotions must come to an end.

You will go far within this Brotherhood.

Master Malik Sadow
Old Rank
Adept (Elder 1)
New Rank
Master (Elder 2)
Requested by
Lord Dacien Victae
Primary reason

Malik has been a member of this club for only a quarter of a century, which isn't very long for a tree. But during that time, he has been one of our most consistently active members, and a constant presence in CNS. Since his promotion to Elder 1 nine years ago, he has participated in nearly 600 competitions, served a full term as a temporary member of the Star Chamber, and as a BTL in CNS, and earned hundreds of crescents and clusters.

Progressing through the Elder ranks is difficult and time consuming. Malik has done the work and put in the time, and I am honored to promote him to Elder 2.

Lord Dacien Victae, 2024-03-11 21:39:11 UTC
Additional reasons

It's become a running joke that the reason Malik and I get along so well is because he's unafraid to call things into question, regardless of who he is talking to. It's only partially a joke. All too often, people, myself included, get caught up in the way things have always been done and miss what things could be. That sort of persepctive is useful in that regard, to be able to shift views and look at things through the eyes of the beginner, the outsider, and the disenfranchised. It helps us all make better decisions as we are forced to see the unintended consequences of things that we are doing.

Add to that the fact that Malik has been consistently active for literal decades. He was Consul of CNS when I joined more than twenty years ago, and he remains a steady voice, advising those who need it.

The man is an ideal example of what long term dedication and activity looks like, and I'm having a hard time imagining what the Clan, and even the Brotherhood would look like if he hadn't stuck around. I'm beyond pleased to be able to reccommend him for promotion to the second Elder rank, as he's truly earned it. Thank you, Malik.

Lord Muz Ashen Keibatsu, 2024-03-08 15:33:40 UTC

It has been said that Malik has been around the Club for a wee-bit. A very, very true statement. It could also be said that during that time this man, we have known to be referred to by many titles. However, today he will be known by another.

Malik has been putting it to the grindstone since his last promotion and I don't think he ever took a pause. He has been as steadfast in his journey as one could get. During that time he has added many of accolades to his trophy case. More importantly, he has never stopped giving back. From his time as Consul to Star Chamber member and back to Clan Summit.

A rock solid showcasing of skills during comps to using his knowledge and experience to mentor Sadowans across all ranks. A bona fide example of an Elder. Malik is one of the foundational pillars within CNS, I cannot see one without the other.

It is truly an honor to be a part of a Son of Sadow ascending to the rank of Elder II. Congratulations Malik Sadow on this great accomplishment!

New Rank
Adept (Elder 1)
Requested by
General Socorra Tenebrosa Nhar’qual Erinos
Primary reason

I get the strong sense that Warp’s entire DB career was much like it is now: intense and contagious. He brings FOMO like no tomorrow, you might as well give in now because you will eventually and wonder why you hadn’t sooner.

Since joining DB, Warp has been a BTS, BTL, Quaestor, M:Fist and M:GM more or less a year for each and half of it since obtaining EQ4. The fine folks attached and the multitude of awards he has earned over time can tell you what those leadership roles entailed much better than I can. I however can speak of the ridiculous amount of activity that the website has recorded:

As of today he has earned over 88061 total XP. Since last promotion in 2018 Warp has participated in 596 gaming activities with 52 Legacy PvP matches. His all-time? 2842 gaming and 258 pvp matches.

Wowza.

Going back to 2018 again we have the rest: 200/179 competitions with obviously most of them gaming, but also 3 brackets, 11 fictions, 11 graphics, 4 manual, 44 regular and 40 timed. He completed 8 fictions and 3 ROs, and passed 12 courses. Then we have the vendetta goodies: 10 gold novae😮2 silver, 2 bronze, with a total of 22 Seals of Discord and 30 Seals of Vision, all since last promotion.

I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the staggering 3004 (20039 total!) Clusters of fire and 4711 (22667 total!) Clusters of earth, and the enviable 12 (83!!) Pendants of blood. Hardly last is 20 Clusters of ice and 39 Graphite and of course, 3 total Seals of Loyalty.

And finally, Warp has earned Arcona 2195700 credits and Vizsla 1535450. I can assure you he has made Vizsla very happy with bringing home the bacon (but where’s the ranch?).

A little trivia I found while going through his dossier, according to Sarin’s recommendation in 2020, Warp was at the time “#1 all time in the club in Diamond Crescents, Pendants of Blood, Clusters of Fire, and Clusters of Earth (2 x more than #2).” While I don’t have new stats I have heard whispers of rivalries over who has more of what and when, and I am putting my money on Warp. Just sayin’.

Gaming and getting others to game wasn’t all Warp did as evidenced by the 2 Ruby Scepters, 1 AK, 3 SBs, and multitude of medals all earned prior to XP. And then four very important ones: 2 scrolls of Indoctrination and 2 Scrolls of the Master. He brings the bacon and the ranch.

TLDR: The name and verb “Warp” means community and activity, the heart of what DB is.

I’ve heard Do Work! as a Vizsla motto even before you returned, and am thrilled to see in person where it came from. Thank you for being such a great part of our club and congratulations!

Additional reasons

There are a lot of things I can say about Warp deserving Elder. In fact, I have been looking forward to writing this for quite some time. Activity wise Warp has just been a beast throughout his career here in the Brotherhood. A classic example of this is just looking at his gaming activity. As I mentioned in his recent Ruby Scepter recommendation he finally lost first place in total clusters of fire after a two and half year absence. While that is impressive his Clusters of Earth total might possibly be an unbreakable record. He has earned 22558 Clusters of Earth as of my writing this. That is more than second and third place COMBINED. Just absolutely insane activity!

He served Clan Vizsla admirably while on the summit serving a year and a half as Quaestor. He was involved in both running the clan but also in planning and organizing events including the Great Hunts. Warp was here at the very beginning of Clan Vizsla helping create the foundational documents to get the Clan approved. But his leadership went beyond just Clan Vizsla. He would game with anyone regardless of clan or skill level. Teaching members to play the games and helping them gather skills in the various games played in the club.

I find no better way to sum up Warp than in the Sapphire Blade recommendation that Zoron wrote in 2021: "one thing that jumped out to me was the huge hole left by Warp transferring to the Rogues" When he went rogue there was a hole left that was felt not just by Clan Vizsla but by the entire club, particularly in the gaming community.

He is one of the most deserving members I can think of to be made Elder and I am honored to finally get to recommend him for it.

Vynn Salm, 2024-02-15 02:15:53 UTC

Warp had been (and always be) a monster in this club. I've had the pleasure of knowing him for a few years now and he's been someone whose dedication (as a formal leader as well as an informal mentor/leader) has been a credit. Looking back on some of his contributions proves that - he has always been quick to invite anyone to play with him, he's always volunteering to submit things, and eagerly pushes for improvements in the gaming community.

Even in the few weeks back and active, he is already around 500 Clusters earned. Every single one of those Clusters can be multiplied into activity across the club - that's a contribution that cannot be downplayed or ignored. I expect him to very rapidly regain his grip on the top Cluster-earner in the club's history (who will reach 20,000 CFs first???).

In short, there are few people who have contributed as fully to the club's overall gaming health as Warp - you could see his departure left a void, and his return has already seen an uptick in overall activity. He has fully earned his elevation to the ranks of Elder!

General Kenath Zoron Ad Vizsla, 2024-02-21 07:19:33 UTC

I could spend all this time throwing numbers at the wall and talking about how much of a gaming juggernaut Warp is. But I'm not going to.

What I'm going to say is that Warp embodies how to be a leader without being in a leadership role. This club is about our activity. At the heart of everything, that cannot be disputed. What Warp does is generate activity. Nuclear grade activity. And he never goes it alone. Warp is always there to hop into games and bring everyone else along with him, ensuring everyone is getting credit for multiplayer gaming and feeling a sense of community. Of belonging.

In my opinion, recognizing that is long overdue and I'm glad to lend my voice to it. Congratulations.

Requested by
Master Selika Roh di Plagia
Primary reason

It seems like just yesterday that Benin Baarkon was promoted to the rank of Journeyman 2. Wait, it was? Well, you might be asking yourself how it could be that he's ready to get promoted again. The answer, of course, is that a major competition event just completed and Benin did an amazing job! He placed in five of the available 17 competitions, making invaluable contributions to his House during the recently finished Ascending Conflict House Feud. So yes, he spent one day as JM2 and now is off to bigger and better things, far exceeding the 1450 XP to reach the rank of Journeyman 3. Congrats!
