Dismal/Corrina/Katrila is a member with many names and a history both in our clan and the club dating back quite a few years that includes quite a few different roles in the club (10!!), many of which I’m sure are just made up (seriously, what is an Eclectic Pedagogue?!). Kat recently returned to the club curious to see what had changed and eager to learn more about the changes they had missed out on. And on the most sacred of Star Wars dates, May the 4th, Kat came home to Plagueis.

I’m going to paraphrase a quote here: “The only way to learn is by earning degrees. The only way to earn degrees is by jumping headfirst into the Shadow Academy. And the only way to begin is by beginning. And, without further ado, that’s...just what Kat did.” Since her return to Plag, Kat has been tearing through the Shadow Academy and flooding inboxes eager to learn anything and everything possible about the club, the history she’s missed and all of the wild and crazy changes over the years. Since her last promotion, Kat has completed a whopping 46 SA courses and earned 7 degrees, 35 of the courses and 5 of the degrees have just been since her return, all in the pursuit of knowledge!

Since her last promotion, Kat has competed in 46 competitions, placing in 8 and earning herself some shinnies including a Gold Novae, 2 Crescent with Sapphire Star, 1 with Emerald Star, 3 with Topaz Star, and 1 with Topaz Star. Kat has dipped her toes into a few different aspects of the club including gaming with an impressive 314 Clusters of Fire earned, and fiction earning 5 Clusters of Ice. All-in-all Kat’s efforts since her promotion to the Equite ranks has earned her (prepare for the list!) 13 society ranks, a Sapphire Blade, a Steel Cross, an Anteian Cross, 2 Dark Crosses, 4 Dark Side Scrolls, 1 Scroll of the Master, 2 Legion of the Scholar, 9 Seals of Pain and 3 Seal of Unity. Outside of the site tracked metrics, Kat has been an active voice on discord meeting and remeeting members both new and old and generally being a positive voice not afraid to jump into a conversation, learn more about the other members of the club and ask questions. It is an absolute pleasure to be able to congratulate Katrila on a well deserved promotion to Equite 2, welcome home!!

You're already beginning to make a name for yourself, Saul Slade. I have heard reports from Clan Taldryan that you have managed to accumulate 107 XP.

I have recommended you for immediate promotion.

Congratulations, and may the Force guide you, Novice,

Blakei Geezie, you have successfully completed the Trial of Identity and confirmed your e-mail address, for which you have earned the rank of Apprentice. While you may currently be on a shuttle to Clan Taldryan, I will continue to follow your progress with great interest.

Hau Nae, you continue to impress. You're growing more competent each day and you will surely rival the Council when the time is right. You have met the requirements for promotion, and a recommendation has been filed.

I will continue to watch your progress, Hau Nae, but my direct intervention in your promotions must come to an end.

You will go far within this Brotherhood.

May the Force guide you, Journeyman,

It seems that not a day goes past where I do not hear about you, Hau Nae. Your superiors have sent glowing records regarding your accomplishments, which together add up to no less than 205 XP!

An expedited recommendation for your promotion has been transmitted to the Master-at-Arms.

May the Force guide you, Trainee,

With his shiny new Amethyst Kukri, Meleu has reached the next camp of what it takes to advance to an Equite 3 on his journey up Mount Equite since his journey from the base camp began 9 years ago. It's something he has been wanting fairly badly, and I now get to apologize for all the added work that you'll have to do now that you have it. Redoing your CS, allocating your (much) higher skill and force points, picking your new customization options...

Wait. No. I'm not sorry for for that. It's something you brought on yourself, so you can suffer through it! Nyah!

(You're also on the hook for all drink fees at the open bar we're hosting now DB-wide at the summit of the mountain. Part of being an upper-equite now, you pay. But since you aren't yet an EQ4, you can't take part.)

Congratulations Meleu, and welcome to Equite 3! You're nearly at the summit. Now keep going. Maybe they'll be some drinks and food left by the time you get up here.
