Khryso Mallus is undoubtedly one of the more active members of Clan Plagueis, he is one of a few members I can rely on to submit entries during events. No matter the scale of the event Khryso is submitting away, determined to be one of the best.

This is best reflected when it comes to comparing how many competitions he’s entered and how frequently he takes away a crescent or nova. In total, out of 120 competitions, Khryso has earned a competition award in a staggering 69 of them, 68 crescents and a gold nova. That is well above a 50% entry to award conversion rate and shows a high level of quality on a consistent basis that encapsulates his tremendous work rate. Another demonstration of this can be seen in the fact that Khryso has taken part in every event, clan or club-wide since his last promotion. This starts with GJW XIII: Discord, his contributions to which earned him 13 Seals of Discord and contributed to his Anteian Cross. The list doesn’t stop there, it also includes Plagueis’ Plagueian Playground, Code: Dread, the DC run Celebration: Mandalorians, House Tyranus’ Tyranus: Grand Opening, the club-wide The Nightmare Before Sithmas Returns and the SA hosted Shadow Feast. That equates to an event every month since his last promotion, showing yet again his remarkable consistency.

The transition between Journeyman and Equite ranks is often where members start making the transition from being pure consumers of user-generated content to producers. I’m happy to say Khryso Mallus is well on his way, taking advantage of the opportunity of the clan not running an event in November by running his own. Not only was it an event, but it wove in elements of Plagueian lore and every event was suitably themed around the concept. With this being The First Plaguiean-Valneikian Festival I’m looking forward to future instalments and any other competitions I’m sure he will run in the future.

Now within the Brotherhood, some members may be considered specialists, focusing on one aspect of the club above all others, this is not something that can be said about Khryso Mallus. However, far from being a criticism of the man, it speaks to his willingness to participate, taking part in a variety of disciplines in a variety of forms. Khryso is one of the foremost members of the club’s Battlefront 2 (2017) community, regularly putting out invitations for other players to join him for which he has earned 438 Clusters of Earth and 6 Pendants of Blood. He’s also expanded into PvP gaming and picked up clusters there. He’s also one of the better writers I’ve had the privilege of reading not just in Plagueis, but in the club as a whole. His creative contributions have earned him 30 Clusters of Ice. Khryso has a mind for storytelling but is also willing to take on lore projects and wiki work. For examples of his creative work, one can look at the Fort Dooku wiki page, which is a minimally adjusted write up of Khryso’s proposal for a headquarters for the then newly-founded House Tyranus. Not content until he’s touched every aspect of the club, Khryso has continued his illustrious SA career and is rising the ranks in the Shroud Syndicate.

While Khryso is also an exceptional member of the clan’s community and I could go on forever singing his praises in that regard, I feel that the primary recommendation should largely focus on a person’s objective merits for why they deserve what is being recommended so I’ll stick to that. I’m sure you’ll agree that Khryso Mallus has earned ascension into the ranks of the Equites based on the evidence presented.

Scudi Ferria, Quaestor of House Tyranus.

Knight Appius Wight is one of the most promising and energetic members the Dark Brotherhood has had in a long time. His enthusiasm for our Club is shown daily in his interactions with other members, his participation in a multitude of activities, and his desire to make Vizsla a better Clan.

The loose and general guidelines for promotion into the Equites is that a Knight sustains 2-4 months of activity. Appius has not only sustained activity, but he has exceeded all of our expectations. This activity includes participation in 36 competitions, 11 PVE activitys, 51,000 words of fiction, 9 passed Shadow Academy exams, 2 Degrees earned, 1 Gold Nova earned, 1 Bronze Nova earned, 2 Crescents with Diamond Star, 2 Crescents with Ruby Star, 6 Crescents with Amethyst Star, 5 Pendant's of Blood, 119 Clusters of Ice, 26 Clusters of Graphite, and 17 Seals of Discord. Appius has also begun to engage and experiment in the ACC with 2 matches finished putting him in the 01% of DJB members who have played the ACC this year.

As a leader, Appius has served as the inaugural BTL of Deathwatch. In this role, Appius has organized 9 competitions, done extensive wiki work on the Wren, Vizsla, and Deathwatch articles, and has taken on an apprentice (who is also excelling).

Appius has performed above and beyond our expectations for any member, let alone one who is still considered relatively new. Congrats on your promotion. We look forward to seeing many more.

Grand Master Declan Roark, 2020-01-18 14:30:06 UTC

Appius was the crux to getting both the House and BT Wikis built and posted. His fictional work within the clan, especially the House and BT, has been beyond what we imagined when we brought him on as the BTL of Deathwatch. He keeps us on our toes with new and evolving peojects, and is always looking to better the clan in some way. It goes without saying that he is a very hard working individual, and I expect great things from him going forward. Congrats on your promotion!
