Event History

Serving 9 months as my Praetor, Tyren has done a multitude of things which has helped to lighten the load on the Herald's Staff. Between giving advice on new policies to assisting with projects, Tyren has kept his options opened to the staff.

Since his promotion to Equite 1, Tyren has completed 6 lightsabers, 28 warbanners, 20 items for the Warbanner Logo selector, as well as a couple of items for Project: Rebirth. His contributions to the staff also helped to change the warbanner guidelines, as well as help with the creation of the Rule of Three.

With his hard work and dedication, I would like to present to him a Sapphire Blade, his first award weapon. Congratulations!

Sacrificial Request: Sapphire Blade OT Prajna Berkana (3883)

The recipient of a Sapphire Blade is a member whom has displayed an extraordinary amount of activity, service or dedication to a position or a task within the Brotherhood. Generally, I have seen such awards bestowed upon members whom participated, and won, a major Brotherhood-wide competition. However, today I request it be awarded for being a driving force behind the scenes of a major Brotherhood-wide competition.

Without the assistance of Prajna, the 2008 Independence Games could not have happened. That is a simple truth. Prajna assisted me at every stage/level of this competition from fine-tuning the actual proposal and the events to coding the entire site (the entire thing) and showing maturity to outsource the layout/graphics to provide the best possible presentation for our entire club. He dug through records to provide depth (such as the original grievances) and functionality (date and timestamp features, database, etc). Additionally, once the events started coming in, PJ was the guy making sure they were appropriately getting to the right places. And once we closed the event, he zipped up all the packages, created a gmail account, uploaded the entries, organized them by file, created a googledocument (tracking participation and placement points), compiled all of the gaming statistics (and uploaded them) and stayed on top of it to ensure the grading was completed. He spent nearly three months involved in this project... from beginning to end. Well done.

His level of maturity and dedication truly stand out in my eyes. His role was nothing short of critical and he performed the tasks that we expect of our highest echelon of members. Great work, Prajna. You are truly deserving of this award.

It is a privilege and honor to award Templar Angelo Dante the Sapphire Blade for his performance in the Independence Games and his overall contributions to the Dark Brotherhood.

Since returning to the Dark Brotherhood, Dante has maintained an insane level of activity. Earning over 1900 Clusters of Fire, he has established himself as one of the dominant gamers in the Dark Brotherhood.

Dante's performance in the IGs led his Clan to a first place finish and brought him personal glory as he edged out the competition and finished as the top player in the Dark Brotherhood.

Congratulations Dante, for your outstanding work in the IGs and your incredible impact on DB gaming over the last year.

Zandro Savric Erinos is a Clansman who has stood out amongst his peers. He has been a serving leader in Arcon in a variety of positions for a tenure of around 2 years. His contribution to the Clan has been massive. He has lead Battle Teams and Houses (as both AED and QUA). During such appointments he held his position with pride and served the Arconan populous proud. He is a patient, approachable, dependable leader who ofers (and continues to offer even although he is now no longer a leader!) a variety opf exciting, interesting competitions and activities. During Project: RESURRECTION I arrived as CON and asked Zandro (along with al other summit leaders) to step down - not exactly an easy intro. However, when I explained the idea of RESURRECTION he accepted the idea as he knew it was the best possible solution to try and reboot Arcona at the time. This is anotehr indicator of Zandro's worth as a dutiful, understanding, dedicated Clansman and leader. Beyond his leadership work, Zandro also participates with a real zeal and hunger for the win! He was placed in Raken's recent DB wide fiction competition and has been an exemplary particpant of all Clan events to date. Ultimately the Sapphire Blade is the first sacramental award for commitment, dedication and exemplary service. Zandro throughly deserves this award on behalf of Arcona. Congratulations, thank you and I hope there will be much more from you in the future...

Zandro Erinos is Arcona’s stalwart. In every way a model member, he is as versatile as he is reliable. He has held a leadership position of some form or another in Arcona for two years without a break, from Battleteam leader of the clan’s best battleteam, Aedile, where he ably supported myself as a Quaestor by acting as my counsel and completing a myriad of tasks such as assisting with running various Run Ons and competitions to helping get the new members on their feet to Quaestor of both houses in Arcona. After demonstrating considerable ability to maintain Galeres’ momentum in the wake of Resurrection, he was asked to get HQD back on its feet. I can only say that he has succeeded tremendously, as House Qel-Droma is now Galeres’ match in member strength and activity. However, Zandro has not only proven himself as a leader but also as a member. He has participated heavily in a number of DB wide competitions (winning the ACC piloting Championship and Raken’s Storyline competition to name a couple). He games regularly and is widely regarded as the clan’s expert in EaW and on top of this has even taken a shine to JA. He is strong willed, but not to the point of aggression, well-liked in the clan and the first stop for a number of newer members looking for advice. There is nothing more that could be asked from this pillar of Arconan strength, and I believe that he deserves nothing less.

I've never recommended anyone for a Sapphire Blade, mostly because I'm incredibly stingy when it comes to medals, but after talking to a lot of people, it occurred to me that the Great Jedi War would give me probably my only opportunity each year to award this medal. Therefore I would like to recommend that the Sapphire Blade be awarded to Sith Warrior Derevko "Thorin" Niroth. Here is why:<br> <br> Thorin sometimes scares me. I could not go online any day (this is true today) without the guy PMing me on IRC. It's like he never takes a vacation. In fact, as the newly appointed Quaestor of House Marka Ragnos, it fell to him to recommend the medals for his house, and he did it within an hour of getting the assignment. The members had their medals that night. I was afraid to even go online because he would PM me with some new idea.<br> <br> I don't know what kind of awards they give the Consuls for leading their clans during the Great Jedi War, but I must tell you that I could not have done this without Thorin. I was balancing summer classes and a full time job during the Great Jedi War, and while I still took the time to send reports and direct the clan (and participate), I couldn't do it all.<br> <br> Thorin's efforts began early in the Great Jedi War when I needed someone to take control of the run-on. He completely volunteered himself for the job, and I could tell that he was doing a great job with it, organizing plotlines, checking on people's posts to make sure that they weren't totally crappy (we were given a couple of days to fix posts as necessary after posting). He turned run-ons (which in my opinion normally suck) from what could have been a mangled mess of separate plotlines into something resembling a cohesive plotline. I was proofreading the run-on for grammar and spelling and I was surprised at how well-written it was, as a whole. Directing the 34 clan participants in that run-on is not an easy thing to do. The clan placed first in the run-on event.<br> <br> It wasn't even just the run-on. While I did my usual reports that I thought were detailed enough, Thorin filled in any gaps in his own reports. During key dates, he would email the clan vital information about the goings on in the war. He would give us updates on points values, and direct people to important deadlines and events. He seriously took "motivation" to a new level.<br> <br> Thorin was going to get a Grand Cross just for his participation and performance in the actual Great Jedi War events. He participated in 11 events and earned his clan 424 points, including a few placings. However, taking into account his tremendous leadership during the Great Jedi War, in which the clan performed the best it has ever in its history, it was decided by the rest of the summit that Thorin should gets his GC upgraded to a Sapphire Blade. Congratulations!<br> <br> Dark Adept Manesh Sadow<br> Consul of Clan Naga Sadow

Bubba... err... Dacien... is awesome. In the eight-odd months he has worked as Praetor to the Headmaster, he has yet to receive a formal award for all his work, and I'm proud to change that. His ideas and opinions are always welcomed and encouraged, and his coding experience keeps the Shadow Academy running. Whenever my limited coding knowledge screws something up, he fixes it, and without him the SA website would undoubtedly run a lot worse. Along with the almost constant coding he does on the website, he has also coded around half a dozen new courses practically by himself (although I do volunteer to help), processes character histories (that in itself takes its toll), work with Orv to make the better course listing menu, and is an indispensible moral compass. Bubba is my second brain, and I love working and collaborating with him. ~ Headmaster Aabsdu di Plagia Dupar

Dacien (Bubba) was an excellent addition to the SA staff. His coding skills are top rate and he was a big help in getting new courses up and running. He's always providing feedback on ideas, as well as presenting his own. When he came into the praetor job, he came in with his own ideas for the Shadow Academy, but was also willing to get involved with the current projects. Perhaps his biggest accomplishment was laying out the current degree system, which is something that I had kept putting off. ~ Dark Jedi Master Anshar Kahn Tarentae

The honor of a Sapphire Blade is not to be taken, or measured, lightly. It is the pinnacle of feats for most members and the sign of upcoming, great leaders for a gifted few. I am proud to say that I believe this will be the first of many sacrificial awards for SBL Thran Occasus. And I am proud to have him as a member of the Clan and a leader on my team. Recently, a team of committed individuals worked together on the Clan Scholae Palatinae Dominion Project in an attempt to flesh out the Cocytus System - home of our Clan. The document spans over forty five pages of straight text - pure content - that uncovers a rich, detailed history for each of our four planets: Antenora, Caina, Judecca and Ptolomea. In addition to in-depth historical content, the document covers planet statistics, lunar statistics, planet geography, lunar geography, continents, islands, island chains, cities, landmarks, military outlook and political outlook. All in all, it provides an exceptional, fictional base for the members of Clan Scholae Palatinae to build from as they continue to advance their individual plots, and the plot of the Brotherhood and the Clan. Many thanks are necessary for all whom contributed to this project. Thran was brilliant in his assistance to this project, completely taking over the planet home world of House Caliburnus - his former charge, during his tenure as Quaestor. It was through his efforts that we discovered Ptolomea would become the bastion world of the Cocytus System, an Imperial Garrison of immense proportions capable of not only thwarting the Yuuzhan Vong whom had attempted to conquer it, but provide a base of operations for the future of our Scholae Palatinae Corps. Integrating the Dynasty Station, Military and Caliburnus into his writing, Thran gave us a world of scholarly pursuit that possesses a sharpened, military edge. His write-ups were nothing short of brilliant, immersing his reader into unique military bases and lush valleys filled with exotic flora and fauna. Great work, Thran... you will forever be a Rock Star! But it does not stop here. Thran was a crucial asset during Fleet Reset, as we abused his knowledge of Star Wars Ships & Fighters to develop our current Fleet. He spent countless hours drafting proposals, with explanations, to allay an entire Clans fears for a crucial point in their history. From this point, he went on to divide our new Fleet into Task Forces, Battle Groups and Lines - even assigning the fighter squadrons to specific ships and denoting command ships. From here, he reorganized our Fighter Corps, giving them new assignments, names and call signs. He spent a vast amount of time on these two projects, in conjunction, to ensure that the members of Scholae Palatinae would have a vast, rich fictional prospectus. Thran was also responsible for running the Fleet Ship Naming competitions, creating three polls and sorting through countless submissions. He, truly, is our Ace in Space. Personally, he has earned eight (8) crescents (Cr-A, Cr-S, 3 Cr-E, 2 Cr-T, Cr-Q), two Clusters of Fire (for participation in the ACC), a Dark Cross and a Seal of Loyalty. He has passed three Shadow Academy courses: Capital Starship Studies, Dark Brotherhood Basics, Weapon Basics. Thran has also began work on his extensive, detailed history by converting his long fictions to the DB Wiki. This process, however, has been slowed by his work for the Clan on creating the necessary pages for our Squadrons as he updates our Corps. He has also been busy as the leader of the Battle Team Nightshade Squadron since his resignation from Quaestor, as he mapped out a schedule for his unit and provided them with updates and competitions. And he was recently torn from this position to serve as the Aedile of House Dorimad Sol. Where he has already begun to implement a new series of changes and updates that range from the basic frame work of a new House Facility (2 page proposal) and providing his members with at least two new competitions bi-weekly. He is also reporting regularly and giving the House its first, true Aedile to compliment the Quaestor. For his ability to be flexible and work for the betterment of the Clan (testified by his resignation of QUA, to allow his AED to grow into that position - and subsequent appointment as AED), to give up personal ambitions to work on Clan Projects (Ptolomea.doc, Corps Reset, HDS Facility proposal, Clan Menagerie) and his ability to be a role model for the rest of the Clan... I am honored to present him this blade. And look forward to the day that I can elevate him within the Equite ranks. <br> * Ptolomea: 15 pgs <br> * HDS Facilities Proposal: 4pgs(Still in progress) <br> * HDS History and Wiki page <br> * 7 Competitions <br>* Orchestrated a mini-feud with HC <br>* Clan Menagerie <br> o Guidelines <br> o Animal Statistics <br> * HDS Castle: Boreal Citadel(tenative name) <br> * HC Facilities: 5-7pgs <br> * Image(s): <br> o Dynasty Station <br> o HC Facilities Overview <br> o HC Caves <br>* Fleet Reset Deployment: 3pgs <br> o call signs <br> o unit designations <br> * Tie Corps: 10pgs <br><br>Phoenix Olkyssagh d'Tana Palpatine <br>Consul of Clan Scholae Palatinae

Phoenix d'Tana Palpatine, 2008-02-07 13:07:14 UTC

I am both pleased and honored to submit this recommendation for my right-hand man, Cuchulain Darkblade Palpatine. It is difficult for words to describe the impact he has had upon the Clan. Such limits of language are hard to surpass when one's deeds are truly indescribable in greatness, but I'll try my best. If there is anyone in the entire Dark Jedi Brotherhood who deserves at least a small bit of recognition, that one person is Cooch. Apprentices who have completed their character histories, step aside! Cooch is more deserving of recognition than any person in this Clan. He has been through a plethora of rolls since coming back to Acclivis Draco in 2006 after a long break. He has played the part of wise man, old geezer, galvanizer, teacher, mediator, and great friend. When he rejoined, Cooch was already known as a pillar of Scholae Palatinae, but few had been in the Brotherhood long enough to have witnessed his triumphs. He rejoined during a time of turmoil for Scholae Palatinae and was soon tossed into an uncontrollable torrent of anger and verbal threats. Soon after, he actively participated in a discussion between the upper echelons of the Clan's political hierarchy, and his support for one idea would soon change the entire situation: allowing me (someone he had barely met) to become Quaestor. I must express my heartfelt gratitude for his support during this entire time. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Although most of his work is not recognized by extreme activity or heaps of medals, I find it important for his expanding collection to be mentioned. Since his last promotion on May 27, 2004, he has earned eighteen Crescents (3 Amethyst, 3 Emerald, 5 Sapphire, 5 Topaz, and 2 Quartz), one Bronze Nova, six different types of Seals (2 Memory, 4 Retribution, 3 Duplicity, 3 Alliance, 1 Darkness, and 8 Pain, making 21 Seals in total), one Dark Side Scroll, one Scroll of Foundation, one Steel Cross, and three Dark Crosses. These additions to his medal case may be impressive, but they are minute when compared to the true reason for this award: his continual contributions as a mentor of Scholae Palatinae. It would be, simply, insignificant to list his contributions without first describing how he and I were able to grow so close. By going through my own history with Cooch, I hope to show his true abilities and qualities that make him into one of the Brotherhood's greatest. Since becoming my successor as Tetrarch of Drynwyn's Flame and getting to know the guy last year, I have seen Cooch pour his energy and soul into everything he does. His passion and dedication for the betterment of House Acclivis Draco is unparalelled throughout the Clan. When Drynwyn's Flame was finally shut down, this blow obviously saddened him, but he constantly looked for more opportunities to help and be involved. That opportunity would come in the April of 2007. Ood Bnar, a few months after having become Acclivis Draco's Rollmaster from HC's Rollmaster, agreed to resign and a number of applications were sent in. None of the applications were impressive, so debates arose and names were tossed around. Eventually, one member stood out from the rest in terms of experience, vision, and overall skill: Cooch. Despite the House Caliburnus Summit being uneasy with the name and blatantly opposing it, I am, now, proud to say that I ignored them. My Aedile at the time, Natth a'Niel, the Clan Summit (Braecen and Phoenix), and I, all agreed that Cooch would be the best choice. I must admit that we were hesitant at first because Cooch's activity had been on-and-off recently, but our timidness was soon thrust away by his enthusiasm and efficient work ethic. During this time, he began designing an incredible activity tracking system that substituted each award for points. In addition to this system, he designed multiple advancement paths for the Journeymen of House Acclivis Draco and, ultimately, Clan Scholae Palatinae. These paths allow a Journeyman to do what they find most enjoyable without being "forced" to participate in other activities through a rigid promotion guide, thus allowing a more pleasurable and fun experience. These projects are still in the works, but it is obvious that many, many hours were spent and I feel that they should be given at least some notice. After having been Rollmaster for almost four months, Natth decided to step down and recommended Cooch as his successor. Unlike most appointments, Cooch was already aware that he had been recommended by Natth and he immediately contacted me to let me know that he will do his best. Despite my numerous attempts to get Natth to stay as Aedile, his decision was adamant and Cooch soon found himself to be the Aedile of our illustrious House. Because he still held the position of Rollmaster, and thus House Envoy, I tried to let him transition himself, so I did not immediately overload him with tasks and projects. One of our greatest victories came during the Eighth Great Jedi War: Incursion. Both of us wrote numerous inspirational "speeches" as we attempted to spur activity. Let it be known to all, that this worked. The members House Acclivis Draco made up more than half of Scholae Palatinae's participants. Let it be known to all, that, without Cooch, Scholae Palatinae would never have met its goal to earn second place in this major vendetta. However, our most awesome victory came a month after the Great Jedi War's conclusion. The Reclamation of Judecca began and both Cooch and I thought that HAD would easily win. After the first week's results were released, we were astonished: HAD was in third place, dead last, even behind the Clan's newest, smallest House, Dorimad Sol. The second week ended and we were still in third place. The third week ended and we were still in third place and were much farther away than we had originally been. In a last ditch effort, Cooch put his inspiration skills to the test through writing a long letter about HAD's history of winning, and we bugged people to participate. The fourth week's results came... and we won. After having trailed behind the other Houses by increasing proportions for four weeks, we won. We won. We caught each other on IRC and shared a small moment of emotional catharsis. It had been a miracle. And Cooch had performed it. Cooch and I are very similar and we make a very efficient pair. We lead by example - he was our House's second highest scorer, only trailing behind me in points. With nearly unparalleled skills in motivation and positive influence, Cooch has definitely changed this House for the better. His personal contact with a huge number of new members only helps spread his influence and love for the House. His work has touched hundreds of people for the better and he has proven himself to be a great teacher and guide. As the Dark Jedi Brotherhood's Codex states, the Sapphire Blade is only awarded to "The recipient of a Sapphire Blade has shown consistent and long-term service to their Clan or Brotherhood position. Such services however cannot be seen until taken on a hold, each individual part seen as one." That description matches Cooch perfectly. Perfectly to a point of insanity. If his motivational emails and personalized, custom-tailored welcome emails are not examples of instruction and mentorship, I have no clue what those words mean. If his sweet activity tracker and multi-path outline does not contribute to areas of invention, the word must have changed during my lifetime. I, on behalf of all those who have ever felt your guiding hand, hereby reward you your very own Sapphire Blade.. Congratulations, my friend. Thank you for everything. -- RevengeX Palpatine Quaestor of House Acclivis Draco

Dedication. Stalwart. Determined. Follow through. Leadership. Active teacher. Loyalty. Charisma. Team player. All of these, without a doubt, can be applied without reservation to describe Pontifex Cuchulain Darkblade Palpatine. His service to Clan Scholae Palatinae is spotless, and very few can claim the length of service that he can. In that amount of time he has become a cornerstone for the Clan, actively participating in so many events and contributing to so many aspects of running the Clan that it's mind-boggling. From taking the lead in the last Great Jedi War, to an active leader, to being available for anyone to talk to him about anything, and even to impart the wisdom of his time in the Brotherhood to those that choose to listen, he is a treasure for the Clan. He has mentored far too many people in the Clan than he would probably admit to, and some of those have gone on to be powerhouses on their own. However, each one of them takes a piece of his extensive experience with them, which in the end helps them to use that to the advantage of not just his students, but the Brotherhood as a whole. As a leader, there are few that can match him. Ferocious in even the little things, he dares you to come up to his level of activity, a leadership style that has helped his Clan and his House rise up to the occasion. In fact, his leadership had a huge influence in the recent Clan and House-wide competitions, where his sheer willpower alone helped to secure victories where none were expecting them to be. Loyalty to his House and his Clan is second to none. It's virtually assured that he'll remain loyal until his last day alive, but in the meantime his own fierce loyalty inspires others to also have such feelings for their House and Clan, a force of unity that is rare in any location, much less the Brotherhood. Thus, we wish that the countless examples of his expert work and his endless determination to get things done to be formally recognized, and we are proud to proclaim the Pontifex as one of our own, a shining example to all. We of Clan Scholae Palatinae thank you, Pontifex Cooch!

Timbal Palpatine

Since Exodus, Cuchulain has been a steady hand for our Clan and we hope to recognize everything he has done on our behalf. Since Exodus, Cooch has serve as our Consul, an Envoy, an Aedile and a Tetrarch. He is not limited due to inability, but because he chooses to help the Clan flourish by filling positions that would, otherwise, go vacant. He has served with dignity and honor at every position, helping establish a solid foundation for our Clan's growth. Amongst his most prestigious works is the "Covenant of CSP" which outlines the ethos and integrity of what it means to be a member of Scholae Palatinae. This document outlines what it means to be a good member, a good leader and quality friend to those around you.

Braecen Kaeth

Cooch has been a shining example of what a leader and mentor should be. He works diligently alongside Revenge to motivate his house, as well as the clan, and push them to do their very best. His emails are tailor-made for the attitude of his members, giving them the "kick in the ass" that they need to the Number 1 house of CSP. He demeanor is top notch when it comes to aspects of the Clan that need handling. I have the utmost certainty that whatever I ask of him will get done, not only to what needs to be done, but completely blowing any expectation out of the water. His works behind thee scene on materials to help focus are new comers and show them the ways of CSP, the ways of being true members of the DB and treating their fellow members are aspects that should be taken by all the DB. For as long as I have been in this Clan, Cooch has been a person that I have looked up to and respected as a leader, member, advisor, and friend. There are not many people that work as hard as he does, and expects nothing in return. But on this day, Cooch has earned this ten-fold. I could not ask for a better person to have alongside me in the years to come. Thank you for all your hard work Cooch. Phoenix Palpatine Consul of CSP

On behalf of Clan Arcona, I am honored to award Dash with a Sapphire Blade. Dash's work as Proconsul has improved Clan Arcona and we look forward to his continued work. Congratulations Dash!

GM Sarin

I wish to recommend Obelisk Exarch Sashar Kodiak Erinos be awarded the Sapphire Blade. Over the past year, Sashar has been instrumental member and leader for Arcona. The year has been tumultuous, with great wins over Clan Scholae Palatinaie in a Clan Feud, and under achievements in the Great Jedi War. As Arcona slowly slipped into a state of disrepair, Sashar worked tirelessly with me to ensure Arcona had a decent fleet, was re-structured properly, the members were offered various activities through Clan wide competitions and at the forfront of all things - people were having fun. Sashar has lead from the front, delivering, inspiring and supporting those who he works with. Sashar's reviews and comments were crucial for the majority of the Project:RESURRECTION policies that we, as a summit, implemented. Sashar made sure that the Clan gave their full support to all such policies, his word carried that much weight. The Great Hunt competition that Sashar created was one of the most innovative, exciting events I have seen int he Brotherhood for quite some time. Sashar's council is of great help to me as I perform my duties as Consul. We have similar views and know how to distribute and manage our workload. Sashar will always give me his honest view on issues, regardless of whether they cl;ash with my own! Beyond this he won't just critiscise, he will offer solutions to help solve any faults. Sashar is well respected by the membership and his personal relationships with the members of Arcona further embellishes his great achievements as a loyal, dedicated leader. Dash's work through all levels and stages over the past year, whether it be BTL of Soul Fire Strike Team or PCON, has helped to hold the core of Arcona together. If Sashar Kodiak Erinos was not in Arcona, I fear that the Clan would have died many months before we arrived as a summit. Congratulations, this is a thoroughly deserved award.

Embrace the Darkness,
