Svere has done an excellent job over the course of his time as a Protector. During the past 38 days, Svere’s involvement in the club has increased by leaps and bounds.

In that time, he has written an excellent piece of fiction describing his character’s origin story. He has also built a draft wiki page, also highlighting his character’s history. Additionally, Svere has been active in the Shadow Academy, elevating himself to Rank II!

Outside of working through his promotion requirements, Svere is becoming highly active over Clan and battle team email discussions, and recently joined the Clan on IRC.

In view of these qualities and events, and Svere’s demonstrated potential for increased responsibility, I strongly recommend him for promotion to the rank of Guardian.

Congrats on your promotion, Svere. You are doing extremely well, and I am proud to call you my apprentice. Keep up the good work!

It is a very rare thing for me to see a member rise through the ranks to Dark Jedi Knight with the intensity and speed that Artorias has done. In a club that is sometimes mired in tradition and extremely set in its ways, Artorias is a breath of fresh air for us all. He is able and willing to offer a new perspective, and he doesn't shy away from speaking his mind. These are attributes that make him perfectly suited to his Clan, and attributes that make us happy to have him.

It is therefore my very great honour to bestow upon him the rank of Knight. Congratulations Artorias: Knight of Taldryan!

Artorias hit the ground running; finishing off an insane amount of training each day. Completing one Savant, 4 Mavens; and 2 pundits within 10 days of joining. After which he delved strait into gaming within the club; achieving 10 crescents; 2 PoB's and 225 Clusters of fire; with 2 Clusters of Ice. He has worked on creating a renewed interest in Jedi Knight within the house and entire club; including working on a project to get OpenJK approved for use within the club. He took on the role of Battleteam Sergeant on Feb 20th, just 8 days after joining. As Battle Team Sergeant he has been essential to my role as BTL. He has contributed each Monday since; helping me with reports; and was able to complete a report all by himself. Each time it was ready for him to be promoted, he had completed it well in advance of his time in grade; and this promotion to knighthood was complete weeks ago. He shows signs of leadership, and an ability to mentor younger members. Something we should all look for in a DJK. His record speaks for itself; and with that I highly recommend him for the promotion of DJK, though it breaks my record. I could not find a more worthy candidate.

Artorias has not only done everything asked of him, in relation to the guidelines, but he has gone well beyond them. He has slowly opened himself to more of the club, especially in terms of gaming. He has brought forward a number of ideas and improvements to how the club in general does gaming, with many of those ideas backed up by years of experience from around the internet.

he has shown a greater willingness and drive to become a much more productive member of the club, and I can't wait to see him continue forward and reach those Equites rank with the same determination and speed he reached Knight.

Congratulations, and good luck!

isuca, you continue to impress. You're growing more competent each day and you will surely rival the Dark Council when the time is right. You have met the requirements for promotion, and a recommendation has be filed. Your accomplishments include:

• Have an approved character sheet on record
• Pass 8 Shadow Academy courses from the (Journeyman Hall) department(s)
• Pass Dark Brotherhood Basics Shadow Academy course

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

You will go far within this Brotherhood.

May the Force guide you, Protector,

Respectfully requesting promotion to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight for Jedi Hunter Chrome. As Chrome's Aedile, and formerly serving side to side with this member, I have gotten to see the attributes and character that Chrome brings to bear; it is impressive. We all strive to be a well-rounded and committed member of our unit, and Chrome by his bearing and performance has achieved this to an unsurpassed degree.

Simply put, Chrome is a superior performer. Not content in one avenue of approach, he has been awarded in both gaming and fiction realms with nearly 30 CFs and two Crescents under his belt in the short timespan since his last promotion. Chrome is active in the GMRG Gorefest events, in the expanding Star Conflict group, in almost every fiction and graphics competition at the House, Clan, and DJB level as attested by over 30 competitions involvement. Beyond this, he has shown leadership and organization skills in running two competitions as a JH, greatly expanding his skill set and administrative acumen.

Output alone does not define a Dark Jedi Knight, but involvement surely does. Chrome has been vocal on the message boards, in the email traffic, in gaming resources, and messaging. He has taken time to mentor other members in Star Conflict and is always willing to participate in whatever needs done around Scholae Palatinae. As Aedile I am lucky to have so many active and stellar JH/DJKs working with me, and Chrome is one of the best hands down. In my opinion he is operating on a Equite level already, let alone a DJK. Yes, he has hit every major milestone but more than that, Chrome is a good person and a good community member of shining character. Welcome Chrome, you deserve this.

Boss Ragnar Kul, 2015-04-14 10:32:38 UTC

Jedi Hunter Chrome has now come to the end of his final trials. Today he stands ready to proceed to the rank of Dark Jedi Knight. This massive accomplishment follows completing 33 SA exams, earning a Maven in Flight, Co-Organizing two kickass DJB Star Conflict competitions, 1 Dark Cross, 5 Crescents, and 87 Clusters of Fire. Chrome has also participated in some 30 different competitions since joining, a great accomplishment.

I am thrilled to add my voice to his call to DJK. I know he can go very far and I look forward to continuing to interact with CSPs newest Knight. Congratulations Chrome, Drinks are on you!

Lord Idris Adenn, 2015-04-13 22:29:57 UTC

Chrome is passionate about gaming and has likely played every type that exists. He's been integral to the bonding of CSP through Star Conflict, which seems to be growing in interest from other clans. So, I knew he would be the right person to help me with an ongoing project: to find and evaluate various flash games for possible use in upcoming competitions for CSP. He's also been a good sounding board for whatever I bring up. I have been watching over him (and sometimes prodding), as I knew he was deserving of knighthood and the journey beyond. Congrats and well-earned!

Mayda Ferium, 2015-04-13 22:52:21 UTC

Chrome is a great member to both CSP and the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. I consider him an online brother. From our start over a year ago talking about our love for games to where we have both grown together as members today. His dedication to being apart of on online gaming community we all call the DJB is inspirational. I would break down his numbers since his last promotion, but others have already done a great job at going in depth on that. His assistance with the Star Conflict Corps has been nothing but outstanding and I look forward to his future growth in CSP. Keep on pushing forward. The Galaxy is the limits brother! Drinks are on you buddy!

Maximus Alvinius, 2015-04-14 01:38:02 UTC

Since his arrival in the Dark Brotherhood and Scholae Palatinae, Chrome has impressed me with his high level of activity. Not only does he participate in gaming events, but he has also entered a variety of other platforms including fiction. His communication with the rest of the Clan is quite amusing as well as voluminous, and this bodes well for his remaining a long term member of both the clan and the club.

I congratulate you on your achievement, and I hope this is just the beginning of your journey into the higher ranks of the Brotherhood. Go House Imperium!
