Event History

The description for the Amethyst Kukri talks about what it's awarded for, mentioning specifically single, worthwhile projects for the Staff of a Dark Council member. I can't think of anyone else at this time who embodies this, in my sight, as much as Rekio. Rekio has been working extensively on adapting a site to beta test the missions from back during Goat's Sith War, that were submitted as an event in that War. These missions have sat, and been nothing more than space in an email. His efforts have put together an impressive site (found at http://www.tarentum.org/compendium/ ) to allow members a chance to earn rewards for, and helping us test out these missions, and make them ready to release to the public.<br> <br> I'd also like to note that, Rekio has served as Praetor to three SHW's now, and has received little public praise to my knowledge. He's genuinely concerned with the function and growth of the Order, and spends what spare time he finds gathering potential information for usage in the revamped Shadow Academy courses, and brings me ideas daily, of what we might do to improve things. When I served as Consul of Tarentum, I could not have imagiend a better right hand man; I still can't see anyone else who would be more appropriate for my second.<br> <br> Rekio, I appreciate all that you do, and this is just a tangible mention of my thanks. Congratulations.<br> <br> -DJM Sith Bloodfyre-Tarentae<br> Sith High Warrior

Anshar has been an outstanding member of the Shadow Academy. There is nothing he can’t or won’t do, Anshar is as capable a leader as I have seen, and his efforts with new members thru the Shadow Academy and Envoys are simply outstanding. I can say without a doubt that Anshar is more then capable of leading both the Envoys and Shadow Academy should the need arise, and for the past several months he has been the unofficial leader of the Envoys. On top of his outstanding work with new members, Anshar has done great service for Clan Tarentum as QUA of House Gladius going as far as earning the name of the Clan. The future is very bright for Anshar with his drive and great work there is nothing that will prevent him from rising even further in the Brotherhood. With of that said and the blessing of the Grand Master and Deputy Grand Master I herby award Anshar Kahn Tarentae with an Amethyst Kukri.

Spears is awesome. The guy is always working hard, coming to me with new ideas and finished projects. He is keep the SA running smoothly, revolutionizing the envoys and making a new assortment of courses. On top of that, he constantly helps with graphics around the house. Spears is a huge asset to this DC and I would be remiss to not say so.

And Kaine -- what an improvement, man. I emailed Kaine a couple of months ago and he and I talked about what we could do to up the ante on the HRLD position. Well, Kaine has far exceeded my expectations. I am in love with the new Star Wars news section of his reports, the GoA redesign task is moving along nicely, and I am enjoying seeing him active on IRC and the Message boards. If makes a world of difference to have someone that has been around as long as Kaine giving their input. I am grateful to have him on the staff.

Telona is the prime candidate for Proconsul of the year. She always seems to be there for her clan through thick and thin, ready to make sure that Tarentum has a job to do, to stay busy and encourages them to do the best they can and it shows in the results that they reap. Telona's determination is an inspiration to her clan and marks her as deserving of this award, a Sapphire Blade.

I had talked with Jac about awarding someone a Sapphire Blade for coding up something to eliminate Tournament results errors, and oddly enough, Jac ended up doing it out of the kindness of his heart. I think it's only fair that, in return for his kind service, I show my appreciation.

Jac cares about the membership, and sometimes, he's given more grief than he deserves. When I had talked to him about the errors with results, he was there to discuss possible solutions, and about an hour or so later, he talked to me over IRC, and told me he had a surprise. Aftera few minutes, he showed me the current status of what he was doing, and it was an updated submission form, that he said would also have an added surprise. After about another hour, he showed me the link to download the spreadsheets that would now be counting Tournament results for me.

He spent a total of about six hours, up in the middle of the night, trying to finish this for me, because he knew how much it would help. Jac was completely selfless in this respect. I asked him at near enough 2:00 am his time, if he wasn't tired, and why he was still up; he replied by telling me that he couldn't leave the spreadsheet work unfinished in good conscience. People don't always see the fruits of Jac's labors, but I have the honor of seeing a lot of them. Jac is indeed slefless, and works to improve the Brotherhood, and add to the benefit of everyone who enjoys being a part.

Again, in recognition of his selfless service, I believe Jac is worthy of this, and more. You have my gratitude, Jac, and the thanks of everyone who will benefit from this.

For her constant work through the GMRG during Halc's reign and my own. Arania has been one constant CoG's have had at thier disposal for a long time and is always on the ball when tasked to do something. She doesn't burn out and that is a quality rarely seen. Her constant attention to caring how it effects general membership and people are a great reminder that leaders of the brotherhood are there for the general membership only. For this I recomend a Sapphire Blade to Arania. One of the highest awards I've reccomended.

It has come to my attention that DA Mejas Doto was recently awarded a Steel Cross for his activity in the GJW. This token of appreciation for his efforts as a contributor to the Clan were muchly appreciated, but such an award does not at all represent what Mejas has done for the Clan.

At the request of outgoing Consul Tarkin, I am recommending Mejas be the recipient of this Sapphire Blade for his amazing efforts in the Great Jedi War. He completed every possible event, with high caliber work, and also propelled his House to a resounding victory (we hope ;) ). He has worked with great dedication for the past many months, and recent times have brought to light his exceptional abilities as a leader when the pressure of a GJW came to bear on us.

For his exceptional efforts as a Clansmen, a Quaestor, and putting 110% effort into every work he produces, Mejas is truly worthy of this reward.
