So CNS now has the Keibatsu, Tarentae, Sadow and Entar. I’m all for it. Bring on the families! Since his return, Cethgus hasn’t shied away from diving right back into the mix and there’s always room for that kind of enthusiasm.

Cethgus has already had a pretty stellar career. And here at CNS, we’re not only glad to have him back, we’re looking forward to watching his career flourish even more. As his recent accolades show, he’s returned with purpose and is clearly staking a name for himself once again.

Seeing members return is always awesome. But seeing someone return with intention and with goals? That’s the kind of energy that makes the Clan stronger. Cethgus Tiberius Entar, it has been deemed that you’ve earned enough XP to be awarded the Amethyst Kukri. On behalf of the Clan, we are proud to present you with this honor.

Thank you for everything and we look forward to the accolades still to come! Congratulations Sir!

Syrena has been a staple of Odan-Urr. Ever since she first took the banner of the Knights of Allusis as their Battle Team Leader, where she brought a new life to the unit, revised their home base, and worked with her members to define a new generation of the KoA, invigorating the active members of her team and House Hoth. When she was promoted, she carried that same energy forward as Aedile of House Hoth. Never one to shy away from educating our newer members, teaching our old dogs new tricks, or just showing everyone how to have a good time, Syrena has brought a unique kind of light to our Clan. As Aedile, she has helped carry the torch during her Quaestor's recent absences, communicating with the upper Summit to solidify plans for our ongoing events, offering material support for the Western Marches and House Hoth's internal events, and helped organize our rather disheveled systems, all while she devised new programs and storylines of her own, as well as continued the work she started as the Knight-Commander of the Knights of Allusis, working alongside her successor in the summit to effect a seamless transition, clarification of assets, and future outlook for the unit. Oftentimes, the biggest changes come from the softest voices. Syrena has been a living testament to this statement, leaving an indelible mark on the Clan and each member she interacts with.

Her activities go beyond the intangible, as well, having organized 17 competitions since February and participating in another 65. She's taken part in 10 gaming activities and 11 Fiction Activities, including 4 regular fictions totaling 5,072 words, and 7 roleplays totaling 9,748 words. She has also passed 8 courses in the Shadow Academy, been promoted to Equite 2, earned 7 promotions in Societies, 1 in the GMRG, 2 in the Inquisitorious, 1 in the Shroud Syndicate, and 3 in the Envoy Corps as a participant. She has also earned a Bronze Nova, 3 Crescents with Ruby Stars, 7 Crescents with Amethyst Stars, 10 Crescents with Sapphire Stars, 2 Crescents with Emerald Stars, a Crescent with a Topaz Star, a Crescent with a Quartz Star, 94 Clusters of Fire, 33 Clusters of Ice, 50 Cluster of Graphite, and her first Seal of Loyalty.

Furios has, once again, proven that he is one of the most dependable and crucial members of Clan Plagueis. Amongst veterans, it's often true that they operate on a different scale of activity since they've "been there, done that." Furious is not one of those members, as he continues to drive activity in the same manner as a new, hungry join.

Whenever there's a big Clan event, be it a Pro Bowl, Vacation, or Ascending competition, you can be sure that Furios will pull out all the stops to dominate the field. This year's Ascending Conspiracy was no exception. He entered all 16 available competitions while scoring a top 3 placement in a stunning 11 of them, and totalled 149 points to secure first place (beating second place by 24 points!). This has just added to his overall activity, with 129 total competition entries since his last recognition. With those competition entries he's netted 35 Diamond, 12 Ruby, 16 Amethyst, 16 Sapphire, 5 Emerald, 1 Topaz, and 3 Quartz crescents. All told he's pulled in 117 Clusters of fire from 19 gaming activities and 15 Clusters of Ice from 5 fiction activities. Heck, he's even pulled in 32 Clusters of Graphite because Furios Does The Arts™. He's totaled 5 Society rank ups between the SA Society, Inquisitorious, and ACC (impressive for a long tenured member, there's not that many more levels left to earn! ). Finally, he's also passed 18 Shadow Academy courses on his way to five additional degrees. Never let it be said that Furios doesn't put the fury into his activity.

One of the best things I get to do as Consul is write recommendations for our veteran members. Some might think that doing it over and over again could get repetitive or even, perish the thought, boring. Not in the slightest. Members that continue to bring their A game year in, year out, are what our Clan and Brotherhood are built on. Members like Furious should never be taken for granted, and their continued excellence is a vital contribution to our organization. Thank you, Furious, for all your years making the Ascendant Clan a great one!

Since earning his last medal, Nobilus has organized 27 competitions and served as co-organizer in a further 4. He participated in a staggering 234 competitions and gained 48 Crescents (1 Diamond, 3 Ruby, 10 Amethyst, 15 Sapphire, 9 Emerald, 5 Topaz, & 5 Quartz). Nobilus has also passed 14 Shadow Academy Courses, attaining 8 degrees while doing so and ranked up twice across the various societies. He has also earned himself a Seal of Loyalty.

Nobilus has been quite the Proconsul so far. Sadly I’m not yet able to award alot of extra xp for work done yet. I’m quite certain that next time, in some months, I will be able to do so. He’s one of the steadfast presences in Taldryan and an ever increasing cornerstones of our social scene.

Nobilus, congratulations on the Amethyst Kukri. I’m looking forward to working more with you in the coming months.

Since earning his last medal, Jorm has participated in 114 competitions. He’s written 3826 words across 6 fiction events and another 2931 words across 2 RP Sessions. Jorm also earned 13 Crescents (2 Diamond, 2 Ruby, 1 Amethyst, 4 Sapphire, 3 Topaz, & 1 Quartz), 49 Clusters of Fire, 13 Clusters of Ice, and a Seal of Loyalty. He also passed a Shadow Academy Course and ranked up 4 times across the various Societies.

As part of the working group that oversees the Taldryan Story Development, Jorm has been a great source of activity. Between november 2024 and april 2025 he was a part of planning and setting up the early phases of the Taldryan Civil War plot. He was also an integral part in the debate and ultimate decision to roll back the Civil War and reorient the clan storyline in another direction. Helping plot out and set up the alternate course by helping to lay the groundwork for several upcoming fiction releases and events. In the work on the upcoming planetary expansion, Jorm has been irreplaceable. His work towards fleshing out the future location with unique qualities and historical background, such as the Emergence will undoubtably make Thanadris a place Taldryanites will be able to enjoy and revisit for a long time to come. All of this work, constituting many hours across months will have a large impact on Taldryan going forward. Speaking overall, Jorm is the member who, when you try to do something, will be there by your side the entire time to help with advice and assistance.

Congratulations on receiving this second Amethyst Kukri Jorm, you’ve more than earned it!

Warlord Hades is one of our Tarentae brethren as well as one of the 'Old Guards' of CNS. Ever since joining Clan Summit, I do not think there was not a time that Hades was not initially in the mix of Clan business or was brought in shortly after. His counsel is routinely sought after and greatly respected.

Hades served as our go-to Subject Matter Expert (SME) on more than one critical occasion. When the Summit began crafting the foundation for our Ancient Sith Empire narrative, Hades was one of the first folks we turned to, Our entire concept hinged on acquiring a single, key capital ship to set the plan in motion.

Over the span of two good weeks, there was a flurry of activity. Deep dives into possession store records, Wookieepedia stat comparisons, and comprehensive item research. Hades led the charge in reevaluating both Houses and Clan fleet assets. He meticulously combed through our large inventory of ships, flagging duplicate purchases and identifying unused or unnecessary assets. From there he began consolidating them into a streamlined, unified CNS Warhost fleet.

The result? More than $300 million in Clan credits saved, enough to secure an additional capital ship and fully outfit it with the necessary systems and upgrades. But the impact didn’t stop there. Thanks to Hades’ efforts, we not only brought the Harrower into the fold, we also overhauled our fleet’s starfighter and bomber inventory, making it far more versatile and aligned with our evolving fictional goals.

That is just a sampling of Warlord Hade's contributions to the Clan. All that being said and as Lord Keibatsu has highlighted Hades activity accolades, the data does indeed justifies this award. The Clan would like to thank you properly for everything you have contributed and for the accolades to come! Warlord Hades has reached the required 11533 Medal XP to earn your first Amethyst Kukri. Congratulations on this great accomplishment and coveted award!

The Rainbow Starbird has been steady in the flight for gold, or in this case the race for the most shiny daggers in the closet. Ruka Tenbriss Ya-ir or Atty as we all know and love her as acquired the 11,533 medal xp for an Amethyst Kukri! Since she was last awarded, she had participated in 39 competitions and won 6 Amethyst, 2 Sapphire, 2 Emerald, and 2 Topaz Star Crescents. An avid artist, Atty had collected 24 Clusters of Graphite from submitting her artwork. Challenging peers to a war of ships, missiles, and educated guessing, Atty has played Battleship in 3 gaming activities and earned 6 Clusters of Fire. Over the past nearly three months, she has done 18 fiction activities totaling 70,476 words of fiction! In three months! 12 of the events were participating in rps, where as 3 of them were rps Atty led as a gm.

Atty is a cemented figure in our community and well known among many. Her presence is a boon among the art, fiction, and roleplay geared groups of the Brotherhood. Always happy to assist with any questions, carving time out of her day to help where she can. Atty takes great pride and joy aiding new members into participating in roleplay for the first time, to getting their feet under them. A writing collaboration and character developing queen, she lives to drive stories with her fellow peers. Atty's work with the Exarch staff has given her an opportunity for all of that. She also works as Magistrate to the Headmaster, taking up running roleplay sessions for the Academy. She additionally earned a Scroll of Foundation from grading 5 courses, passing 1 course herself. Recently, Atty had agreed adopt the Galeres Aedile seat and since she has been incredibly helpful aiding the new Quaestor with the initial learning of the ropes.

So, without farther ado, I present this Amethyst Kukri to Ruka Tenbriss Ya-ir! Congratulations! May the stars guide your path!

The Big Blue, Stres'tron'garmis, has earned the 11533 medal xp for an Amethyst Kukri! A fair chunk of this mxp is leftovers from Strong's, or Kord as we all know him, activity that wasn't spent up in previous recognition. Kord is a longtime member who has been in leadership or some advisory role for most of my nearly ten years here. Yes, Kord has. The laidback and chill guy who's a fan of sharing memes and cursed instagram videos, who's lovingly been threatened a rolled up newspaper emoji, has been a good leader and teacher. If help is needed for a project, Kord was willing to assist with it whether working out a fleet in possessions, helping new members find their feet, proofreading fictions, and more. Kord volunteered to fill in for the Galeres Quaestor position last fall, holding the fort and running 4 competitions for the House, the Gethsemane Hunt comps. He's earned the Clan since his last award 6750 credits.

I am honored to present Stres'tron'garmis this Amethyst Kukri to add to your list of favorite purple things, second to Tali of course. Congratulations! May the shadows guide your journey into hopefully quiet retirement.

Sofila "Spicy" Douve Armis — yes the nickname needs to be included — has earned the required 11533 mxp for an Amethyst Kukri! Since her last award, she has organized 1 competition and participated in 32. She won 1 Amethyst, 4 Emerald, and 1 Topaz Star Crescents. Taking part in 7 gaming activities, she netted 54 Clusters of Fire. Sofila also participated in 6 roleplay activities with 6,566 words and earned 13 Clusters of Ice. In addition, she ranked up once in the Antei Combat Center as a participant. To top it all off, she recently concluded her service stint as Magistrate to the Fist, to which I’ll let Turel discuss more on below.

Sofila, or Jenni as we all know her, has grown renown through the Brotherhood with her inescapable and inevitable aura. She is one of the most kind and friendly individuals I've gotten a chance to meet, always eager to welcome in the new and the old into the circles of our DJB lives. Jenni’s excitement and joy is infectious and inspiring, whether it be for her own creations and muses or anyone else's. She’s one of the first in the pack to inquiry others on their characters, plots, or just frankly to see how it's going. She’s an incredibly caring and supportive person, which is felt heartily by those who get to know her. I don't know how she does it, but her frequent presence in not just the Brotherhood general chats but throughout all the clan chats contributes to her renown through the club. I know wherever Jenni goes, her ambition and love for this community will be carried like a beacon that is felt by all.

So, with one last honors, I am pleased to recommend Sofila “Spicy” Douve Armis this Amethyst Kukri. May the stars guide your journey as you adventure forth!
