Event History

Our resident Elder tree, sometimes referred to as the CNS Groot! Always with impeccable timing when it comes to replying with a zinger in Discord chat! Another great Elder to have on staff here within the Clan. Again I cannot say it enough, I am surrounded by the best staff one could ask for. Malik is no exception, as another former Consul of CNS his leadership is sought out by Clan Summit regularly.

As Battleteam Leader for Sapphire Squadron, Adept Sadow continually strives to set the example for others to emulate. One of the ways he showcases his dedication is competing in one hundred and thirteen comps! For his efforts in those comps he earned himself seventy six Crescent to add to his collection of “Atta boys!” For his singular efforts Malik has brought home Crescents in many flavors: 4 with a Diamond Star, 15 with a Ruby Star, 35 with an Amethyst Star, 11 with a Sapphire Star, 10 with an Emerald Star, and 1 with a Quartz star.

During the recent War Malik was able to knock out six of nine competition bins. While Malik didn't bring home a Novae for his War efforts, this Elder has proven quite....adept. Besides bringing in points for his participation, Malik also achieved 6th place in [GJW XV Phase II] Fiction - Resplendent Research II and 7th place in [GJW XV Phase I] Graphics and Miscellaneous - Puzzle: GJW Edition.

It is our honor to present Malik with this prestigious award! This is just a small token of the Clan’s appreciation for everything you do. It is with great pleasure to be able to present this award to you! Well deserved!

There is a lot to be said regarding Reaver Malisane Sadow. I will do my best to try to capture everything that needs to be said when it comes to this Son of Sadow. Malisane commands House Shar Dakhan and has been a constant beacon of leadership. He and his Aedile are always crosstalking ways to increase activity, develop relative content and just all around making HSD a fun place to be. Not only that, but he always bounces ideas around the Summit chat to get our inputs as to what would make better content. He is more than just a team player, he leads from the front. He is one of those guys that you just wish you had more of.

Since his last recognition, Malisane has been quite steady in activity and busy with creating content. He has org’d/co-org’d fourteen comps and has participated in one hundred and eight comps. He also took time out and attended the hallowed halls of the Shadow Academy and completed two courses and earned his Dark Sage Tactics degree. He also earned himself one Silver Novae, thirty five Crescents, one hundred eighty seven Clusters of FIre, thirty six Clusters of Graphite, two Seals of Loyalty and fourteen Seals of Enmity.

During the War Malisane was a flurry of activity, partaking in eight of nine competition bins. He was a constant voice of encouragement getting folks to jump into all the action.

I am honored to be a part of this award presentation. Malisane is more than deserving of such an illustrious award. Clan Naga Sadow is lucky to have you and your Aedile as a team and taking care of business within House Shar Dakhan. Your actions reflect great credit upon yourself and the Club. Thank you!

Nora Olen has been one of the best and most active members of Plagueis since she joined the Ascendant Clan. Her work since her last promotion has been nothing short of exceptional. Her competition totals have been transcendent and she has acquitted herself well as the Aedile of House Ventress as well.

Overall since her last recognition she has piled up a fairly insane amount of activity, especially considering said last recognition was her promotion April 17th not even three months ago. She has participated in 91competitions in total while placing in a stunny 47 of them (with the Great Jedi War entries still yet to be graded!), earning crescents of nearly all types: 5 Diamond, 14 Ruby, 11 Amethyst, 12 Sapphire, and 5 Emerald. She has been an active gamer, logging 16 gaming activities while going on to amass 11 Clusters of Fire and 83 Clusters of Earth. She has written 3,405 words of Fiction and pulled in 7 Clusters of Ice. As a Graphical machine, she has pulled in a mind blowing 33 Clusters of Graphite. As a member that has only been with us since February, she is still looking to grow her knowledge of the Brotherhood via 8 Shadow Academy courses she has passed. Her work and near-manic levels of activity of course brought her to the attention of the Summit, and so she was appointed Aedile of House Ventress on May 1st of this year. Even getting slotted into the position with an impending Great Jedi War, Nora has been described by the summit as someone who is curious, listens well and is doing everything asked of her. During the recent war, she worked closely with her Quaestor Qormus to help drive member engagement via one on one interactions with her members while keeping her leadership apprised of the responses she was receiving. She was additionally a visible, active presence in Discord channels to help cheer lead from the front and encourage others to likewise contribute to our Clan's overall efforts. She has also begun contributing a section to the House Ventress reports as well.

Nora's continued efforts to Clan Plagueis will always be valued and recognized by her Clan mates and valued by her summit. It is a privilege to offer her this recognition for her outstanding efforts since taking on the mantle of Aedile. May this continue as just another stepping stone along your path of progress!

Essik is a consistent powerhouse when it comes to this club. His behind-the-scenes work, which he does without anyone asking is unmatched. His most recent endeavor, taking it upon himself to backup all of the COU stories and content from discourse without even being asked. He saw the importance in salvaging over 10 years worth of work and wanted to preserve this history. This speaks of his mentality when going into projects, many of which he gives himself. His interests are in what's best for this club and his Clan. You would be hard-pressed to find someone more passionate and concerned with the overall well being of this club. This is one of the main reasons I hired him as my Aedile. Just in the month that he has been back in a leadership position he has helped me organize a parent competition, created three competitions, has helped me in the back end with tracking membership progress, is helping me develop a new Storyline for the HGC, and is currently running our House RO on Discord where he can always be found dropping messages to stir activity and pushing to maintain our community vibe (so far producing 622 words in addition to the staggering 16352 words he's written for various competitions).

But his achievements extend beyond the Clan as well. Essik was recently awarded 1 Anteian and 1 Steel Cross for proofing page after page of new item prototypes after he noticed a few discrepancies. He took it upon himself to ensure the items would roll out without a hitch. Additionally, and one of the things he is known the most for, are his Wiki contributions. Since his last award he received 4 Dark Side Scrolls for being Wikipedian of the Month for October '21, November '21, January '22 and March '22 with a combined 154 edits and 10744 overall words.

Essik has also participated in 80 competitions and has earned, 3 Crescents with Diamond Stars, 14 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 19 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 9 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 6 Crescents with Emerald Stars, 2 Crescents with Topaz Stars, and 1 Crescent with Quartz Star. He also has 34 Clusters of Ice and 102 Clusters of Graphite.

A good friend, a hard worker, and an earner/big brother to the Clan, Essik is a shining example of what it means to do work because it needs to be done over working for recognition. I am honored to write this recommendation and know that he will continue to do what he does best, being awesome!

In the three months since Occultan was last recognized he has maintained an exceptional level of activity. He has competed in 107 competitions. In these, he gained 6 Crescents with Diamond Star, 5 with Ruby Star, 11 Amethyst, 7 Sapphire, 6 Emerald, and 1 Topaz for a total of 36. He has gained 11 Clusters during that same time period and earned 502170 credits for the Clan.

Occultan is a valued member of Clan Vizsla, beyond the activity mentioned above, he is an active member of our discord channels. Offering advice and help to members from the newest members to those of us who have been a long time. Thank you Occultan for continuing to show the type of activity that makes my job easier. :P

Tahiri is one of Plagueis' stars with her very high levels of personal activity. Such excellence demands prompt recognition.

Since her last recognition in October, Tahiri has participated in 90 competitions yielding 48 crescents (1 Diamond, 3 Ruby, 4 Amethyst, 9 Sapphire, 17 Emerald, 10 Topaz and 4 Quartz) from those entries, an astonishing return of 53%. I consider anything above 25-30% a good return, and to me demonstrates that this is a member who isn't out to merely pad their stats; that they want to succeed. But 53%, wow! Go Tahiri! She submitted 18 gaming activities and earned 69 clusters of earth, mostly due to her efforts working with the newly revived TOR guild. She is also active in the new - to the DB - realm of Role Playing with 2944 words in three submitted activities giving her 6 Clusters of Ice.

And it isn't just her own personal activity that contributes so much to Clan Plagueis and the DB as a whole. Since her last recognition, she received a Scroll of the Master for mentoring Livia Mariquita Daffel to the rank of Knight. The DB cannot survive without welcoming and mentoring new members and Tahiri made us proud in this respect. She also served as House Tyranus Quaestor for over nine months. Thank you for your service to Clan Plagueis, Tahiri!

She is an active and cheerful presence on Discord, always there to say hello, congratulate someone on achieving some milestone or answer a question someone has. It is easy to underestimate the effect of having someone like Tahiri who is friendly and welcoming in chat, but we've noticed, and it's greatly appreciated.

I am thrilled to be able to recommend this, my first ever Sacramental Award to Tahiri. A great person, and an excellent Clan member. Congratulations!

Liandry made quite the entrance on her arrival into Taldryan. Immediately, her level of activity netted her 2nd place in the Orth Prison Break event.

In total, since Liandry's last recognition, she has participated in 74 competitions, organised 16, and Co-organised a further 4. Liandry has also passed 5 SA courses and earned two degrees!

In terms of competition awards, Liandry has won the following;

Crescent with Diamond Star x 1 Crescent with Ruby Star x 5 Crescent with Amethyst Star x 5 Crescent with Sapphire Star x 5 Crescent with Emerald Star x 5 Cluster of Fire x 116 Cluster of Ice x 27 Cluster of Graphite x 21

However, it is her time in leadership which I wish to focus one next. Liandry served as Plagueis Proconsul for 9 months, during which, she helped reorganise the Ascendant Fleet with new possessions and House structure (this was back when Tyranus was Plagueis' only House). She also Co-organised the PLA-COU feud, the Myrkr Crusade, organised the Expanding Horizons event, and Co-organised the House Tyranus opening event.

It is for these reasons that I am happy to recommend Liandry for a Sapphire Blade. Congratulations, Liandry!

Grand Inquisitor "Aequitas" Anderson, 2022-01-21 14:58:36 UTC

Revak is the latest in a remarkably successful line of COU Consuls, stepping up to replace Blade right before the most recent vendetta. He was awarded a Grand Cross for his success at that time, and since then he's impressed us all by maintaining COU's momentum with 32 organized competitions and a major push into the newly supported RP system. As for personal activity, Revak has been a beast, participating in 57 competitions and winning 14 crescents, while picking up 2 CFs, 58 CEs, 11 CIs, and 23 CGs.

I'm happy to recommend Revak's first Sapphire Blade. Congratulations!

Since his promotion to EL1 in August, Bentre has continued to be a key leader in the Brotherhood, helming CNS as its Consul while also managing the DB Wiki as Tribune. As CON, Benny helped to organize the successful Pro Bowl V and organizing 22 competitions. He was also extremely active on a personal level, participating in 55 competitions and earning 31 crescents. He also picked up 711 CEs, 195 CFs, 34 CIs, and 6 CGs.

Congratulations, Benny!

As a new member to Arcona, I heard a great deal of names, tales of the people that had made their mark on the clan years before. Many of these people, and the stories that were attached to them, seemed so much larger than life. Now, years later, I’ve had the pleasure to meet some of them; but few have made an impact comparable to that of our venerable Ood, who returned to the fold of activity and immediately began making a name for himself once more. He is a sterling representation of Arcona’s spirit and drive, and a shining example of the Old Guard in action.

There has been a not-insignificant span since his last Recognition. But, since returning to the active fold of the Clan, Ood has demonstrated an enormous competitive drive, participating in a grand total of 128 competitions. His prolific work has netted an enormous impressive count of awards. These include three Novae, one of each flavor, alongside a heavy sum of crescents, counting up to one Diamond crescent, five Ruby crescents, eight Amethyst crescents, six Sapphire crescents, eight Emerald crescents, four Topaz crescents, and four Quartz crescents. This work includes 6321 words of fiction and 1645 words of Run-On writing, 21 Clusters of Ice, 18 Clusters of Graphite, and a Cluster of Fire. Moreover, Ood’s efforts have earned him eight Scrolls of Foundation, a Legion of the Scholar, a Seal of Wrath, four Seals of Visions, and seventeen Seals of Enmity.

If all that isn’t enough, Ood is a constant presence both on Telegram and on Discord. He has participated in multiple RPs, and is always providing keen insight to new and old members alike. Included in this activity is over four years of special Magistrate service to the Headmaster.

I am no longer quite as new and shiny as I once was, but Ood’s legacy and current work for the Clan and Club remain an example that I strive to emulate. Therefore, it is my honor and privilege to recommend him for the receipt of a Sapphire Blade. Good work, and enjoy the shiny shank!
