Vyrese Palestar
Old Rank
Journeyman 2
New Rank
Journeyman 3
Requested by
High Councillor Wolfe
Primary reason

Vyrese Palestar has Hunted his way through the Bayou and earned, in service to the Clan and the Royal Guard, enough experience to warrant his promotion to Padawan. A continuous stream of gaming activity has been the trademark of Vyrese's steady growth, earning 98 Clusters of Fire, with 3 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 4 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 3 Crescents with Emerald Stars, a Crescent with Quartz Star, earned over the course of 16 Competitions, 4 of which being Containers. Padawan Palestar has also garnered further favor within the Grandmaster's Royal Guard, increasing their society rank once more and earning their 6th promotion overall.

Hunting with Vyrese and Ryuu in Hunt: Showdown is always an experience and one I would recommend to anyone looking for some hilarity and a good bit of tension while you deal with both some truly monstrous eldritch beings down in the Bayou, and dealing with your fellow man trying to steal your glory.

Here's to you, Padawan Palestar, drinks on you tonight!

Professor Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar
Old Rank
Elder 1
New Rank
Elder 2
Requested by
Adept DarkHawk Sadow
Primary reason

It is with great honor that I submit this recommendation for the elevation of my Master, Professor Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar, to the esteemed rank of Elder II. Over the years, Professor Entar has exemplified unparalleled leadership, wisdom, and dedication to the Brotherhood. His vast contributions—spanning both academic and martial pursuits—have profoundly shaped the future of our Order. A beacon of knowledge, he has mentored countless students, fostering a legacy of excellence that will endure for generations

I mentioned to Sang some time ago during a conversation we had regarding promotions. I said I was going to add .gifs and all sorts to his recc. Figured I would just throw a bunch of big words together and make him sound pretty bougie. Seriously, all joking aside, for me, I am without a doubt honored to be a part of this. Not just for the simple fact an apprentice gets in on the promotion of his master. More importantly, a Son of Sadow, a friend and a mentor is being recognized with an ascension in rank.

Since his last promotion, Sanguinius has been steadfast in his journey and reached yet another milestone to add to his Brotherhood career. He continues to keep his competitive prowess sharp by participating in three hundred and ninety two competitions. Maintaining his thirst for education, Sanguinius earned himself his Master of Lore degree on top of the five hundred and thirty eight courses he graded.

The Professor has also garnered himself an Amethyst Kukri and three Sapphire Blades. Not stopping with just sacramental awards, he has also earned himself a Dark Cross, a Silver and Bronze Nova and a hundred and forty nine Crescents. Over twenty three hundred Clusters found their way to his trophy case. A hundred and sixty five Scrolls of Foundations to fill the shelves in his vast private library. One of the centerpieces to his accolades is the Scroll of the Master, followed by thirty two Seals to display.

It is not just the things he has done, this man has had a footprint around the Club for some time now. Always pushing for the betterment of the Club and mentoring our members. Sang at one time or another has helmed a variety of stations throughout the Club. Taking on Clan level leadership roles all the way up to Consul. Outside the Clan, Sang's name is embedded into the halls of the Shadow Academy. His years as a SA Professor and Magistrate for the HM and the Regent has helped produce some amazing resources for Club members . His influence is not just encapsulated at the SA, Sang’s loyalty and reputation led him to advising the Grand Master as a member of the Star Chamber.

Master Sanguinius Tsucyra Entar, it is with great honor to say this to you. You have reached a milestone my friend and are worthy of this promotion to the rank of Elder II! Congratulations Sir!!!!!!!!!

Adept DarkHawk Sadow, 2024-09-27 19:56:33 UTC
Additional reasons

Although Sang is not currently on the SA staff, he has the distinction of being its longest serving member with more than twelve years of continuous service as a professor or magistrate. His dedication to this club and his clan are clear, and I am very happy to add this recommendation for his promotion to Elder 2. Congratulations, Sang!

Lord Dacien Victae, 2024-09-23 13:26:42 UTC

At the beginning of last year, Bubba and I decided to award Sang the Master of Lore degree. It's not a particularly lucrative award--he's not going to be buying a corvette with it. But that degree is traditionally given to outgoing Headmasters and only to Headmasters. Sang is the first and only person to receive it without Council service.

As Bubba mentioned, that's partly because of his exceptionally long service in the SA. Ood is really the only other member who comes close. Sang was, among various other positions, the only Professor of Lore we had; he took that job when the Department of Lore opened and held it until the position was cut. But as Howie is quick to point out, parking your butt in a job is not even remotely the same thing as doing the job.

So let's talk job performance. Sang graded 2920 SA exams. That is a lot, far more than anybody else except dbb0t. I've done 568. Bubba's done 360. Ciara, Seraphol, Farrin, and Solari have all done between 576 and 433, bringing our collective total to 2927 exams. So not only has Sang done almost exactly as much grading as every HM of the last decade combined, but it's important to remember that most of the HMs cheated. Most of us, if not all, have done dozens or hundreds of "exams" that were actually vendetta trivia comp entries. In terms of real SA exams, Sang easily outperforms Team HM when it comes to grading. And his average turnaround time for that grading is faster than most profs, docents, and HM staff have managed. He is undoubtedly the SA's MVP for keeping things running. And that really seems like the sort of person who should be an EL2.

Thanks, Sang, on behalf of all the HMs you've worked with.

Nothing that I have written (and deleted) over the past few hours seems to do Sanguinius the appropriate level of justice. His work has been a steady metronome as so much other chaos has happened around him. He is a steady guiding hand, a listening ear, a calming presence, a wise professor, and an ever-present friend. And now for his years of effort, the professor shall officially bear a title that so many other members have called him in the past: Master.

Thank you, Sanguinius.

Requested by
Adept DarkHawk Sadow
Primary reason

So Veil has been tearing this place up dince he has joined. I am tempted to get the PCon and I a rubber stamp so we can just stamp these reccs Approved!! This is just way to cool! Nothing more refreshing than getting these reccs on our folks who are just having fun being part of the Club. Veil has been racking up XP points furthering his career and experience. Since his last promotion the has been steady and true. He has participated in twenty comps, he has earned a Steel Cross, a Antenian Cross, three Crescents and sixteen Clusters. Veil Arcana has reached the required 2150 XP to reach the rank of Journeyman. Congratulations on another well deserved promotion!

Veil Arcana just keeps killing it. Diving deep into competitions this time, his name has come across my feed almost two dozen times already, and I have a feeling that he is just getting started. I can't wait to see how fast that Veil can get themselves knighted. If he keeps up at this pace, it won't be long at all. This promotion that you've earned is just the next step. Congratulations, Veil, and thanks for all that you've done so far!

Captain Meero
Old Rank
Equite 1
New Rank
Equite 2
Requested by
Professional Nildea Vidh
Primary reason

O' Capitan, my Capitan-- that's how it goes, right? We awarded Meero a mere four months ago with his first sapphire blade. Now we're promoting him to Equite 2. Meero has been a valuable sounding board for me for months, helping me with no only ideas for the house, but also as a general voice of reason and calm. It's for those specific reasons that I asked him to become my Aedile. He's shown, at least to me, why he was the perfect selection. Since his last promotion in January this year, Meero has done a great many things.

He has participated in 46 competitions, 35 of which were not containers. He's placed in 29 of those competitions for a staggering placement rate of 63%. The shinies he got from those placements arrreee-- 3 Crescents with a Diamond Star, 11 Crescents with a Ruby Star, 10 Crescents with an Amethyst Star, 4 Crescents with a Sapphire star, and 1 Crescent with a Topaz Star. He's written a staggering 7k words of roleplay which garnered him 2 rank ups in the Envoy Society and 11 Clusters of Ice. This little kushiban has also amassed a total of 77 Clusters of Graphite. Top that achievement sundae with a nice tuft of Society-rank-up-and-Dark-side-scroll whipped cream and you've got a complete picture.

It has been an honor to work next to Meero and to see his growth in the House and the Clan, both as a member and as a budding leader. We are very lucky indeed to have him with us. We'll be seeing you shortly for your EQ3 promo, Meero, I know it. Congratulations!

Professional Nildea Vidh, 2024-09-17 01:19:05 UTC
Additional reasons

Our favorite Kushiban captain has reached a new milestone, earning enough xp to be promoted to Equate II! The numbers easily showcase the efforts Meero has put into this accomplishment, but our journeys through the Brotherhood, our character and our impact on the community are shown through more than numbers and tasks. Meero is a friendly and laid back guy who loves a good joke and a bit of fun. He’s well known for his awesome art and his fun memes he’s drawn. It’s always great getting a chance to talk to him. Meero is happy to lend a hand when asked and has jumped on the opportunity to be Aedile for Galeres. While he is still in training, he’s shown interest in learning the job and has already taken part in summit discussions and decisions. I look forward to working with him more in the future!

Congratulations, Meero, on your promotion to Equate II! May the stars guide your path as you venture forth!

Ghost Rulvak Qurroc
Old Rank
Elder 1
New Rank
Elder 2
Requested by
Fist Uji Tameike
Primary reason

Where to start with this guy? Rulvak, or as most everyone knows him, “Warp,” has become a pillar of the gaming community—a workhorse in every Clan he’s been a part of, always open and willing to ensure that anyone who wants to earn clusters has the opportunity to do so. Since his last promotion, he has participated in 274 competitions and 254 gaming activities, earning Vizsla 1,946,900 credits.

During this time, he has earned 1 Emerald Dagger, 23 Crescents with Diamond Stars, 46 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 61 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 49 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 13 Crescents with Emerald Stars, 9 Crescents with Topaz Stars, and 3 Crescents with Quartz Stars. In addition, he has accumulated 5,964 Clusters of Fire, 1 Cluster of Ice, and 46 Clusters of Graphite.

These accomplishments alone highlight Warp’s incredible impact, but they barely scratch the surface of the feedback and contributions he’s provided to me as Consul and Proconsul of Vizsla. He has helped shape fiction, brought forth new ideas, reviewed documents, and remained an outspoken gaming community member, offering valuable feedback at every level of the Club’s operations.

Thank you, truly, for nearly ten years of friendship, gaming, and your invaluable contribution to the Brotherhood. Congratulations on your promotion to Elder 2—an incredible milestone you have undoubtedly earned.

Fist Uji Tameike, 2024-09-08 03:29:38 UTC
Additional reasons

Warp isn't just among the pinnacle of gaming within the club, I would hazard to say he embodies it. Always willing to hop into games and group up. That's a standard to be held within one of the pillars of activity this group upholds. It's not just crafting stories and tossing memes, there's a human element to it. A community. Gaming is all about community.

Warp is a driving force for that community. He's personable, skilled, and dedicated to his craft. It's hard to look at any gaming competition and not think that he'll be a top contender. He's also one of the first to see you're doing something and pop up with a "hey, want some company?"

That's worth celebrating. After all, what is a club without its members? Making members feel included and perpetuating the fun of games only helps that. That's what Warp does.

Atra, 2024-09-07 19:29:45 UTC

Warp joined our club and changed the way everyone views the pinnacle of gaming. He set a new standard for activities, consistency, and community building. Warp’s skill at every game he plays is secondary to the team aspect he has brought to our club. He is always willing to help a member learn a new game, level a new character, or excel at a game’s most difficult content.

Many of us have advocated for years that Warp’s activity was more than just a guy who is good at gaming. He is a guy who makes our Clan and Club a better place through the best parts of gaming - teamwork, friendship, and community.

I will always sing the praises of XP because it makes a promotion like this possible. Warp deserves this elevation under this system (and any system).

Congratulations Warp!

Grand Master Declan Roark, 2024-09-07 20:20:09 UTC

When I first introduced Warp to the DJB, I wasn't really sure how far he'd go in it. Initially, it was just another place to game and find other people to game with. I feel the completionist mentality of Warp motivated him to try out all the other methods of activity and community that is the DB at large. Fast forward years later and Warp has surpassed me in the ranks and accolades the club has to offer. He isn't one to shy away at offering his assistance, insight and/or expertise in not only gaming, but fiction, graphics and the overall betterment of the club's community. He says it how it is and how it needs to be said. Warp leads by example and offers for others to join along with him whenever possible.

In just a short amount of time since his last promotion, Warp has absolutely decimated the XP requirements for the next rank. Casually. I'd be proud to see Warp achieve Elder 2 and more. Congratulations, Warp. Don't slow down, though. There's always more credits to grind.

Empress Rayne Palpatine
Old Rank
Equite 4
New Rank
Elder 1
Requested by
Lord Dacien Victae
Primary reason

Rayne has reached the required 85000 XP to reach the rank of Elder 1. Since her promotion to EQ4, she's participated in 323 competitions, organized 19, and earned dozens of crescents and hundreds of clusters, all while serving as a QUA, PCON, and for the past month as CON of Clan Scholae Palatinae. Congratulations!

Lord Dacien Victae, 2024-09-04 12:53:56 UTC
Additional reasons

I have had the extraordinary privilege to watch Rayne grow over the years. I’ve seen her grow as a leader of Clan Scholae Palatinae. What I’ve witnessed has been absolutely monumental…

Rayne is no stranger to the members of CSP. She has always been the Clan and the Clan members’ strongest supporter and encourager. She’s always lurking in the chat to drop a well timed meme, or checking in on how everyone else is doing. Rayne will be the first to congratulate a medal or promotion with fire, as is tradition. She is the cornerstone, the foundation, of CSP.

As a member, Rayne has been absolutely ravenous in her pursuit of elevation. She is out there on the grind competing in everything she possibly can. Since her last promotion, she has completed over 320 competitions. Through which, she’s earned a stack of crescents large enough to choke a large llama. She’s eared over a thousand Clusters of fire, enough to choke an even larger llama. And even as a self-proclaimed non-writer, she’s dived into the world of RP and has managed 8000 words over 7 RP events. She’s ranked up in societies 11 times. And she’s served as QUA, Proconsul, and now as Consul.

Rayne’s path to leadership has been equally amazing. I have seen her unlock her confidence and step up when the Clan has needed her most. Although she was new to the roles each time, she stepped in and began soaking up leadership knowledge like a sponge. With each step up, she learned the ins and outs, while conducting herself with the utmost dignity. She’s become an absolutely model leader. During our time together in the CSP summit, she was absolutely my right hand. Her hard work and dedication led her directly to the Throne that she now sits upon.

When I look over Rayne’s history within the club, she’s always put the community first. She’s been a warm heart and a listening ear for many members of our Clan. She has continually strived to make Clan Scholae Palatinae a fun place to be, where all who share the value of our community can enjoy themselves. Her fun-loving attitude is representative of the vision she has for CSP. She has worked harder than I can aptly put to words to get where she is today. She is truly a testament to how hard work and fun need not be incompatible.

Rayne truly embodies the spirit of what it means to be an Elder. She is a hard-working, helpful, positive steward of our community. I am so fortunate to have been able to witness her growth so far. And I will be equally lucky to watch her continued success as she serves in her newest role as Consul. I am so proud to see her achieve a personal goal that she once thought was impossible. It has been nothing short of amazing. I've been fortunate enough get to see all of her amazingness outside of this organization as well. I am so grateful to have such a special woman in my life.

Congratulations, Rayne. You earned this. Drinks are on you!

Thran Occasus-Palpatine, 2024-09-04 00:29:15 UTC

Trying to quantify Rayne's contributions to CSP would be impossible. I am sure others will speak to her leadership and activity—as they should, as Rayne is a beast at both. Not many people could have convinced me to leave Vizsla and work as PCON for them. But, it wasn't her leadership or activity that brought me back to CSP.

Rayne is a kind, genuine, fire-breathing soul who builds up those around her. To encourage and get to know the members of this club. Working for someone who treats members as Rayne does is a blessing. She embodies all the things an Elder in this club should be. And I am so happy to see her gain the rank of Elder.

Congrats Rayne! Drinks are on you!
