Since his demotion to Guardian, Delak has continued to be an integral part of Scholae Palatinae, staying positive and supportive and engaged in activities to help the Clan and his brethren. Now that the three months have passed, I am anxious to reward him for all of his efforts with a promotion.

He is active and friendly on irc, he's posted on the djb forum, and he is very encouraging and positive in clan emails, especially for promotions for others. He has followed through on his service as Master to Upside, recently knighted, earning Delak a Scroll of the Master.

Of course he already qualifies for the rank, having completed all the activities long ago. But beyond that, in the last three months he has been awarded 7 Crescents & 7 Clusters of Ice for submissions to 20 competitions overall, including 6 in clan event Entanglement and 4 in the big feud Red Fury, ranking 7th place in that parent competition to help the pride of the clan.

I am happy to see Delak remain a productive and inspiring member to Scholae, appreciated and needed by us. I look forward to his rise in power in the Dark Side!

Delak has been anxiously awaiting this day for several months now. Never letting the situation get the better of him, he has remained a strong active member of Scholae Palatinae. Always looking for activity, and ways of reaching out to the members, Delak is always there for support to whoever needs it. He leads the charge for activity and has never wavered in his dedication to this club. Congrats Delak.

I am honoured to recommend Kintocass for promotion to Guardian. In his time as a Protector, Kintocass has managed to be an active brotherhood member, both on IRC and on the DJB Voice channels. A lot of Kintocass' work has been spent developing their character. They have written a character History document for eventual posting onto their character's wiki page. Not only has he developed his character's past, Kintocass has worked on developing his character in real time, writing 1500 words of character fiction. Kintocass has also created an approved character sheet, adding more depth to their character. Kintocass has also made sure to give back to Arcona, co-organising a competition for Arconan members to enjoy.

Congratulations, Kintocass. I look forward to seeing what you do next.

Rollmaster of Arcona

Onwai Starborne has met the requirements for promotion to Guardian after actively working on all of his requirements. He has completed the time requirement of 14 days in rank along with logging on to IRC and visiting the Clan channel. He has also participated in 5 competitions, earning himself 25 Clusters of Earth/Fire. Onwai has been actively completing many courses in the Shadow Academy, achieving rank 2 in the Shadow Academy Society. We have also gotten to read a great fiction from him, outlining a bit of his character’s history along with how he came to be a member of the DJB, completing the requirement for 750 words of fiction. It is for these reasons and that Onwai has been an active and engaged member since he joined us that I am proud to request his promotion to Guardian. Congratulations Onwai! Well earned!

Kelly has completed all of the requirements laid before her to attain a promotion to Dark Jedi Knight. She's done it with outstanding grace and style that gives us all something to aspire to.

Kelly has been a force in the Shadow Academy and completed several Mavens and even a Savant. She has also competed in 9 different competitions since her last promotion and even placed recently in 2 fiction competitions earning her Emerald and Sapphire crescents. One of which is very impressive considering she beat out two of Clan Plagueis' more prolific and decorated writers. She participated in the Clan wide event Restoration and placed a house leading 4th.

Kelly is an active participant on IRC and never hesitates to offer an opinion or ask a question that's one of the things that makes her very well suited to her most recent work as Battle Team Leader of Apostles of Syn. She's only been in the position for two short weeks but without a doubt was the correct choice to head the team. We have had a bit of shuffling going on through the Battle Teams and Houses as far as summit members are concerned and we realized that the member we chose to help the Apostles had to be someone who knew what Plagueis was about, who had been with us and had come up through the system we needed them to run. Kelly was the perfect choice. Since taking over the battle team 3 members have earned promotions and she's even recruited members to the clan. What more do you want in a leader? She's made great contact with the members, received positive replies and most recently took it upon herself to begin getting the Apostles' wiki page up to date with all the relevant information.

I couldn't be more proud than to recommend my apprentice for promotion to Dark Jedi Knight!
