Event History

Raiju Kang, though a recent arrival to the Ascendant Clan (or recent returnee?) has demonstrated that he is the sort of consistent, reliable producer of activity in the seven months since his last recognition. With competitions both entered and hosted, he has driven activity personally and for other members, and he has been a positive and engaged contributor to our little corner of the Brotherhood community since landing feet first in Plaguies.

Individual activity wise, Raiju has entered 92 competitions since his last recognition, placing in 31 of them. Those placements netted him 3 Diamond, 7 Ruby, 9 Amethyst, 7 Sapphire, 4 Emerald, and 1 Topaz crescent (stopping short of the elusive Quartz!). His nine gaming activities earned him a total of 23 Clusters of Earth as well as 20 Clusters of five. His 1,936 words of fiction contained within 2 fiction activities also brought him 5 Clusters of Ice. He was, apparently, tearing it up in the realm of Brotherhood graphics, however, with 49 Clusters of Graphite for his work in that arena. A nearly fifteen year veteran, Raiju also proved that it is never too late to go back to school while passing 26 Shadow Academy Courses and earning 5 different Dark Side Degrees (2 Pundits, and then one each of Maven, Savant, and Sage). Additionally, he also hosted a warm up event for his former home of Clan Odan-Urr in the lead up to the recently Completed Great Jedi War, with nine sub-vents that helped his clanmates better prepare for the struggles of a Brotherhood Vendetta by offering things such as events like Battleplan rarely seen outside of the Vendetta setting. His ten total hosted competitions show that he is one to offer opportunities for his fellow members, not just one content to sit back and consume so to speak.

It is my great honor to recognize Raiju for his work in the Brotherhood as the current Consul tasked with the job. I know Odan-Urr must have felt lucky to have his contributions through the first half of 2022 as well, as I am sure they will expand upon. Thank you, Raiju, for your continued devotion to all the parts of our Dark Jedi Brotherhood!

Our most active Aussie, Darcy (Denath) is a prime example that being on the opposite schedule as most of the Brotherhood is no real obstacle. He gets on Discord and chats with us most days despite the time difference. He has served as Aedile for 9 months now and has never skipped a beat. I will go over his participation numbers below and outline the work he has done for Vizsla.

Since his last recognition, Darcy has competed in 65 competitions (76 including containers). During the latest GJW, he was the highest scoring member of the Clan and earned a Silver Nova. Aside from that he has earned 7 Crescents, 14 Clusters of Ice, and 6 Clusters of Graphite. And just because we are all about the credits here in Vizsla he has earned the clan 219800 credits during that time. Last is the 6 Shadow Academy courses he passed.

Aside from his stellar activity in participation in Competitions, he completed a huge project for Clan Vizsla in the development, writing, and implementation of the Kandosii Casino It’s level of quality is outstanding even down to fine details. It was a large undertaking and he executed it flawlessly.

Last but not least is the work he does as Aedile of House Deathwatch. He works hand in hand with his Quaestor to ensure the needs of his membership and really the entire clan is met. From writing recommendations to award members, to proofreading, not just Deathwatch’s recommendations but for the other leaders as well. He is engaged with the membership ever encouraging them to reach new heights and do new things.

Thank you Denath for all you do in Clan Vizsla, House Deathwatch, and the Brotherhood.

Ah, Rayne...the yang to Thran's yin in the Hoodrats. One of the Bureau Bandits. Burner of pants. Stealer of the Dreaded Holocron of Pantlessness. Rayne, is constant within Scholae Palatinae.

What has been great over the last few months has been both Rayne's consistency and her growth. She is a constant presence upon the GMRG Leadership board (currently #3 but having placed in the top 10 for the last two quarters). Since her last award she has a combined 1,106 clusters related to gaming.

She participated in all the GJW XV bins and earned an impressive Gold Nova for the Coop.

While this is an impressive level of engagement within our community; Rayne has been working behind the scenes to improve Scholae Palatinae's wiki. While this isn't as 'flashy' as some of the other activities she has brought a structured approach by setting up Trello and breaking the activity needed into sub-projects for ease of tracking and, most importantly, a consistent and continual process that we can leverage going forward for all who are interested in assisting with our wiki management.

To me the most important artifact within the Clan is our wiki as it is our shared history and, without it, who knows what we've done. I really appreciate that Rayne has been working on this continual activity for Scholae Palatinae.

Dear Usurper, the following message has been reviewed and approved by K'vin and found to be free and clear of any liable comments.

Thran has continued to be an invaluable member of Scholae Palatinae, having recently assumed the position of Proconsul. Even before he assumed this role he has been a trusted advisor and sounding board for me to workshop items for the Clan and the Clan storyline.

The quality, and scope, of the Dark Times Saga - Civil War was influenced by Thran's guidance. To, probably no one's surprise, Thran's liberal use of the CSP Black Card has secured our new planetary and system based assets. I also enjoyed thoroughly our Coop fiction and shared Gold Nova. May we all learn the cautionary tale of Kam's Ham Sam.

While it is probably bad business giving him more sharp objects, he's definitely earn it and more!

Since his arrival in Plagueis last October, Mauro has established himself as a reliable source of activity in his new home. He has completed 79 competition entries in total, placing in 18 of them to earn 1 Diamond, 6 Ruby, 5 Amethyst, 4 Sapphire, and 2 Emerald Crescents. During the recent Great Jedi War XV Mauro was a major contributor to Phase I events, with a total of six entries over the course of the war effort to help secure fourth place overall for the Ascendant Clan. His activity has also earned him 8 Clusters of Ice for 11 fiction activities totaling 3,824 words a well as 91 Clusters of Graphite for his graphics entries. Mauro has also been a positive contributor to our Clan's community, being an active and engaged member on Discord since his arrival. It has been my pleasure to have him aboard as a member of the Ascendant Clan, and hope that he continues making a mark in the future!

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!
